Has anybody tried it yet? on my phone, it will crash EVERY single time im either trying to make a phone call or trying to pick up an incoming one. just trying to find out if anybody else encounters this. on a related note: i lost the cab for the (in my case working) version 2.2.0.45. if somebody could please send it to me so i can at least use it again? i tried skype's forum, but the people there are useless
thx in advance

edit: found the cab. on a russian forum. damn, i forgot most of my russian.. oh well. still interested if someone has the same problem with the 2.5beta tho
Hi,
Skype is just working perfectly for me. I don't know what version it is but downloaded it yesterday from skype directly (2.5 beta).
Dont know if the German language is available in this install:

Are you using an original english rom? from what i have read so far, this problem only occurs when skype is installed on roms with an os language other than english.

Speaker function
When making a call, the call can only be heard through the speakers instead of the earspiece. Does anybody know how to solve this?

General problem with WM devices. Try fring, they somehow managed to reroute the sound from the back to the front speaker. works quite well actually.

Thanks! It works well, the only disadvantage is that you cannot change the volume of the ringtone.
Skype with S740
Skype does work very well on S740 (using Skype 2.5) but i'm forced to use the HEATSET!!!
But got a new problem after installing Real Dice Poker:The Skype notificationflag doesn't show anymore on my homescreen titlebar
I already tried to Hard Reset my S740 but even that did not help.
(Flag does show after entering "Recent Programs" in titlebar)
Any ideas what i should do to get back that systemicon on my homescreen?

I've tried going through all the Home Plugin posts on these forums, but can't find my particular problem in any of them.
I have an Advantage with Dutch WM6, official download from HTC.
I have RealVGA running smoothly.
I wanted the HTC Home Plugin, so I downloaded the latest I could find here (v2.0, Kaiser.HTC.Home.v2.0.814.722-schen) and ran the .cab along with all the cert.cabs I could find.
As expected, it looks funny at 192dpi, but works very nicely at 96dpi.
BUT...
The clock works and all the messaging-shortcuts work, but all the other tabs (pref. calling, weather, launcher and soundsettings) are non-functional.
When I try to add something to the launcher, it just gives me a generic folder-icon without any option to actually select a program.
Selecting a contact for the pref. calling tab doesn't do anything at all. The weather tab is empty.
Has anyone else had these problems, and if so what should I do about it?

HTC home plugin VGA
Try HTC home plugin VGA, it work OK with 192 dpi also.
Tried it, and all I got was a blank spot where the Home Plugin should be.
Even tried substituting another .dll, no dice.
The only one that gives me anything (home tab at 96dpi) is HTC.Home.v2.1.1005.722.Directory.Fix.Only.schen.
Thanks for the idea, though.
Hmm, It does work at 96dpi on my athena no problem, if it is any use to you Im running it on PK3 Black touch rom.
I assume that you tried the app with the previous one uninstalled and that it is selected in settings >today> Items.
If you tested the file attached,perhaps is worth to do a search for the original file Just in case it got corrupted when uploading.
good luck with it anyway.

Maybe it's because it isn't embedded in the ROM? (doesn't PK3 have it in the ROM?)
I think I read on the forum that that was a problem with the Athena...
PK3 Black touch has the regular home plugin as an add on, it did not look proper in 192 and 128dpi, it wasn't that bad but then the newer app came and solved that problem, I don't know about black dual though,I'm waiting for PK4, also if you are interested there is SnapVue around, it does look fab in landscape mode, in portrait how ever it cut the right side.

search my dual thread. there is a plugin that works in all dpis.

Would that be snapvue?
Also, maybe I'm being blind, but I am wondering whether I've been stupid and I just need compact frmework to make everything work?
Man, I am a total noob, aren't I...
I want to thank you all for all your help!
This forum is such a great resource, and you're all very cool for helping me out.
Snapvue: Get the plugin working, but only the calendar-view works. All others don't even show up as tabs.
HTC Home: Tried the last versions from the Dual thread; they other don't show up at all or (2.1) only show the Home-tab correctly. All other tabs non-functional.
I'm beginning to think these just will not work with the Dutch 6.0 ROM, and I am not in a position to change ROMs right now.
Seems this isn't meant to be for me just yet...
Possible problemsolver:
rename the MUI to 0413 (dutch) as opposed to 0409 (english)?
I'll give that a shot when I get home.
I have given up on HTC Home Plug
I can't get the launcher portion to operate properly on either version. It is nice to have the numbers not be cut off on screen, but if I can't adjust the brightness on the fly, it won't work for me. Perhaps it isn't playing nice with some of my other software (of which there are many!) I'll wait for the new 4.0 ROM and see if that solves my problem.

Fring works awesome on my AP4 I love it and it allows for me to use my bluetooth headset for calls I have configured and tested all services (with the exception of twitter). It does have a strange hick-up in that it mutes my VOIP calls at the start, so manual adjustment is required, I also wish that I could group the services independently, but aside from a few little quirks, it is soo much better than skype ever was... it also allows for integrated phone call history, integrated dial-pad and chat.
Has anyone gotten SMS to work yet? one of my phone contacts is also in skype so it sets her default text messages to her skype account rather than via SMS.
I will play with it a bit more but it answers one of my biggest concerns about skype and it gets us working with bluetooth, as it should have been all along...
Thanks again and hope this helps...

Yes, it is annoying that bluetooth mutes when the call is made and answered... but hey, we got functional voice in skype, google talk etc. and even better Skype voice works over an EDGE connection without trouble. I am impressed.
However, the best quality calls are Fring to Fring calls.
I can't help you with the phone book integration, but maybe the fring fourm people can help.
Thanks for the post and for the tip on the application, I am sure that they will be improving upon the application in the future, I will continue to keep my eyes open for updates... If you have a link to an active user community for fring, let me know.
In the interim, I fully agree and am impressed with FRING

Just a quick update, I have just been trying out the Full rom from Irus and it runs skype with no problems. As irus's rom is WM 6.1 it would indicate that the compatibility problem is not with WM 6.1 but with something else in AP 4.0.
Regards
Jay
Jay, thanks for the great news, please keep us posted on your progress
from what pk explained to me... the roms that run skype are just ports of 6.1 not full 6.1
ap4 is a full 6.1 rom therefor it wont work
skype is incompatible with 6.1
There are known compatibility issues with skype and pk addressed this a few times.Check the ap4 thread by pawel.
edit: deactivate htc home and/or install the htc home from addond.Home is a major resource hog.

Has anyone else had a problem with the word completion and spell correction on the software and hardware qwerty keyboards? Even though I have both of these features checked they still don't work. When I'm in T9 mode it works ok just not in ABC.
Is anyone else having this problem? I would like it to work like word completion did on my Mogul.
Thanks,
crw
Yeah, me too. I loved word completion on my Treo 700wx. I wish it would start working on the TP. Of course that is minor compared to the TP not wanting answer incoming phone calls. Now THAT just sucks.

where did the cab go?
phone not answering calls.
There is a fix for that problem it comes from diamond config and advanced config function. You need to do a search it is a quick reg edit that will fix it. I believe I found it over at ppcgeeks. And it fixed my problem of not answering calls.
Classic Word Completion?
I would like to have the classic 6.0 XV6800 word completion. It was alot nicer. Anyone know where to find it at? Ive been looking and searching the forums for it.
Hey all.
I know i need to use the search tool but i don't have a clue of what to search for.
My Touch Dual can make calls once i turn it on but then after one call, i can call people but they can't hear me and i can't hear them.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Also, i've read about updating roms or radio's etc? and would someone please explain this to me.
I hope someone can give me the answers on how to fix the call problem and help with rom's/radio's.
Thanks.

If it has the original ROM, then it is time to return it to manufacturer for fix.

In simple terms, ROMs are the operating system of your phone. Like your PC, you can modify or update the ROM. Custom ROMs can have features and programs built in that are not part of the standard ROM that your phone came with.
The radio is the low level drivers to control the hardware of your phone, eg making calls, camera etc.
It does have the original ROM in that case. But unfortunately, I got the phone from Ebay and thus no receipt so they won't touch it.
Would changing the ROM have the ability to fix the call problem.
or
Would I be able to change the Radio? One of these should work shouldn't they?
And if so... Would you be able to lead me in the right direction on how to do it?
Thanks
hey i had same problem
not so long ago ..
where i call they cant hear me and i cant hear them either ..
all i did was remove srs wow hd (if you have it - first enable it make sure the speaker is set to internal.. try call if still doesnt work remove the app)
then did a soft-reset
if that doesnt work try a new radio like 1.65.xx.xx or 1.71.xx.xx
Haha, okay.
To start of with, i don't even know what "srs wow hd" is? And where will it be so i can remove it?
And secondly. How do i change the radio etc?
Thanks

haha lol yeh i only just learning two i ot my own touch dual just a few weeks ago
srs wow hd is sound driver you can find this in settings (if you have it installed) .. so go to setting it will be under system.
try putting it to use internal speaker(its the first option you cant miss it!) ..try call if it doesnt work ... change ur radio .http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369502
download one of the 1.65 or 1.71 one's
next flash hardspl .. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355730
..before you change radio it says you need to CID unlock your device .. so do that..(personally i did'nt do that even though it says it will stop on 99% ....i only didnt do this because my computer wouldnt run the software ..)
so still try to CID UNLOCK just so you dont mess your phone up ..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395945 < to get cid unlock + instructions.
so now you've done all that and you have downloaded the radio ... connect your phone to ur pc using active sync and run the file follow instructions( note it says it hard resets aka wipes your phone, it doesnt ) and wait awhile when its completed try to call ..
if that still doesnt work ask a expert
hope this helps ..
Thanks for the help mate, i did all of that but used a different radio previous to reading your reply.
I'll try using one of those now though cause the signal strength is really low on the "RUU Nike Radio 1.58.21.23S Modded" one.
So i'll just have to see what happens
Thanks for the reply though mate, wish me luck! haha
okayy good luck
Cheers man, found a radio that did everything. So it's all good
This forum's pretty sweet.
Now i just need to get some cool apps and games on it and i'll be sorted!
Helpfull liam12189! Maybe a mod can change the title to something that's more suitable? This way it'll show up in searchresults (hopefully) and can be helpfull to others also.
yes .. that would be a good idea like : help with radio if you can't make calls or something!

Hello,
I just purchased a Galaxy S II, model SHW-M250S. However, I do not think it came with the voice talk software. Does anyone know why that would be? Any way to add it to the phone (other than vlingo from the app store) I have been trying to figure it out online for a little bit now so I am posing the question to those with a lot more knowledge about phones than myself. Thank you.
You mean a voice command application? Vlingo is the closest you can get right now.
Yes voice commands. I thought the GS2 came with a "voice talk" application preloaded. In videos I have seen users just click applications and it is right but my phone lacks this.
There are three, voice talk, voice command, and voice search. Not sure what are the difference among them as they all seem to do more or less the same thing.
Sent from my phone via tap tap tap
Hmm, well I have the voice search but it just searches google. It won't open apps or let me dictate messages or anything.
You are right, I got them confused, voice search does google, but the other two more or less do the same thing. They should all be in your app drawer.
I don't think they are I wonder how it got left off the phone? Kinda disappointing. Too expensive of a phone to be missing stuff imo.
I have been searching high and low for an APK that has those, but I have not come up with anything so far... lost it when I flashed a complete WIPE custom rom... I'll be ever so thankful if anybody uploads or directs me to said APK...
