Is there any way to use Skype for calling on HTC Wildfire. I install skype from market but it is no use from it because of choppy sound.
It's apparently the same for everyone. You can refer the Skype discussion thread here:

Hey, has anyone found a way to use the FFC Mod and call an Android handset that does not have an FFC such as a G1? Additionally, are their any apps that will allow video chat from the Vibrant w/FFC to a Mac? I did a search for some answers, but haven't found any. The closest I've come is the Yahoo Messenger app, but it only allows video chat between a PC and an Android phone.
Has anyone come up with a way to use Skype for Android to be able to place video chat calls? The fact that the Archos 101 has a front facing camera really makes me wish this would work. But the Skype available in the Google Market does not support video chat.
I've heard that the HTC Thunderbold and the new Moto BIONIC will both have Skype Video integrated.
Are we basically waiting on another android device to have that functionality so we can reverse engineer it onto our devices? Or is there another way around this limitation?
Skype is still working on getting video calling to Android. They just purchased Qik too, which should help!

It seems they "sold" the first working video version of skype to Motorola, so once the xoom is out, there'll be Skype AKPs floating around... with the hope that it doesn't heavily rely on Honeycomb.
I think Verizon gets first dibs on Skype video chat. Then probably after a year it will be open to all devices.
Moved to general as not andorid development
I have been using Tango. It works great.

well "Skype with Video" was just released for the Thunderbolt only ... waiting on a fine XDA member to crack it for the rest of the mass (xoom please!)
link can be found @ Androidandme ....won't post it here
I am thinking buying this phone and found conflicting posts regarding Skype support.
Can Skype be installed from the market for the X8?
If so, does free Skype to Skype voice calling work?
How is the voice quality on the X8? Is it choppy?
Thank you.
I can reply the first question no more jaja, yes it can, do you need the "Market Enabler" (download it from the market) and choose T-Mobile and you will see all apps from the market, search for skype and voila!
greetings sorry for my english jaja
for Market Enabler do you need a rooted phone

I use skype from time to time, but it drains the battery even offline, so when I'm not using it, I uninstall it. I called via wifi, and quality was great!
There are lots of apps like skype on market, whatApp, Nimbuzz...

It depends on your location, whether or not the market supports it. As for quality, yeah, it's great. The Skype Voice to Voice works (No video calling), and chat works like a charm. You can get it off of freewarelovers(dot)com, where there's a repository of free apps. Also, based on your connection, that's how your call quality will be.
Skype 3.0 chat and call.
I searched for skype the first day I bought my X8, some people on forums have problem finding it the market( some countries do not have full apps on the market). The alternative is to enable your phone to install apps from unknown places, then download it from brothersoft.com/mobile and install form SDcard.
Skype is working like a charm, chat, calls, skypeout.
Try using this link. You need wifi/3G active on your phone and you must be logged into your google account(be on market), and you can install it directly, by clicking install from the site.
I have seen all of these threads about how skype works now with the new update.
I don't even know where to get skype for my phone!
The market has a skype but it doesn't have video....
... where can i get a skype app that I can video chat with?
Skype for Android with video capability has not yet been released.
Skype and 2.3.4
Skype 2.0.0.27 works fine in 2.3.4 as far as the audio that made the app unusable before. It works crisp clear (Wi-Fi have not tried 3g) . No signs of video as of today. As I understand skype is working on the matter.
