Guest GregorioUY Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 So, I check some of my tech-related news site, and I find that Skype (to my big surprise after MS bought them), updated his android version to enable video chat. The big question is, does somebody with a Pulse/U8200 could try it, in this new mode? If so, what's the ROM version you're using? I guess the latest version to support front camera, was FLB-2.1, wasn't it? Sorry for the crappy english :)
Guest Bazsy Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Skype enabled video call only on 4 android devices, not including Pulse or any popular phones. source I'm using the RMB rom and the voice call uses the loudspeaker which makes it's quality rather bad, too.
Guest mikeb90 Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 i've tryed to log with my account.... DESPITE THE KEYBOARD APPEARED AND I COULD PRESS THE KEYS... NO TEXT WAS APPEARING IN THE USERNAME AND PASSORD BOX XD
Guest rangeoshun Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Yeah on 2.1 and 2.2 skype for me works on speakers too only :S But on 2.3 it worked great last time I had that on my u8230, but than it lacks the front camera, or any camera for that matter :)
Guest GregorioUY Posted July 1, 2011 Report Posted July 1, 2011 Well, that was fast, now there's a patched version, for non-compatible devices. Can someone with 2.1, test it? http://goo.gl/svD3n If it works, it could be a good reason to get back from Basic-2.2, to FLB-2.1

It didn't install properly (seemed to install but listed as 'com.skype.raider' not just 'Skype' and with no Skype logo). It then just forced closed on startup. Edited July 2, 2011 by onawall
Guest pedrojaime Posted July 18, 2011 Report Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) To get rid over the skype-only-output-on-loudspeaker issue, this older version seems to work: http://www.readwrite...droid-phone.php This is still listed as com.skype.raider but works over wifi or 3g btw and since its older, its not a 'video calls' version..
