Guest netdudeuk Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Lack of a front-facing camera isn't going to help is it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dadashi Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 How about using a mirror...? You should be able to use the omc camera for calls... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was referring to the need to constantly keep spinning the phone around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Productivity Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) Has anyone had any luck with this? The new version of Skype seems to allow video on unsupported devices but not on the OMC. My Asus eee pad is an unsupported device but with the new version video now works. It is as if the version that you get from the market for the OMC does not have video support. Would there be a way to get a version where video is supported or is it not as simple as that? Would be nice to have even with only a rear camera, could use to show people things etc Edited January 11, 2012 by Productivity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sgl Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) There is a modified version of Skype here: http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1148708 It claims to 'force' Video and also fixes the use of speaker issue. I haven't actually tried it myself so can't confirm if it works. But it's probaly worth trying. Update: Ok so I thought I'd actually try it myself. It does force the sound onto the correct speaker, but it can neither send nor recieve video :( Oh well maybe in some future build...
