Has anyone found a Skype that works with windows 6.1 and DCD'd newest rom and radio releases?
I have tried 2.2.0.18... No luck It worked great on WM6 but once i put DCD's 3.2.5 on my phone it will not run.
So I tried the newest on on the Skype site 2.2.0.45 and it runs but no luck with sound.
This isnt critical as I use it only once in a while on my phone but it is a nice feature to be able to use.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
i found this same thing yesterday, i reflashed since i had to include voip in the kitchen. was able to get it running and make a call, but no dice on the sound.
im using skype 2.2.0.20 on DVD 3.2.0/radio 3.42.02 and it works, although i can only make calls with my BT headset

There is a low CPU version of Skype that I had working on dcd 3.2.0 and earlier. The sound came through the speakerphone on the back of the phone. Since updating to newer dcd ROMS it doesn't work anymore. Look for a thread titled "voip on wifi" or something like that for the cab. But it only works on older dcd ROMS.
I just installed SkypeMobilePPC_2.2.0.20.cab on my Sprint PPC-6800 with 15 MB free, and running the PPCGeeks 20270 kitchen and the 3.42.40 radio.
After the install and a soft reset, when I try to start Skype, I get a Skype can not start popup.
Try finding a beta version. I use version 2.2.0.20. I would upload the version I'm using but it doesn't seem to work. The version I have also only goes through the speakerphone, but I usually pop on a headset bluetooth or through the bottom port and it works fine.
I just downloaded 2.2.0.45 (actually mislabeled as 2.2.0.38) from this Skype forum post http://forum.skype.com/lofiversion/index.php/t177281.html. It starts and I can hear the ring when I make the test call, but I couldn't hear anything from the other end. I could hear the hangup sound when I hung up though.

This hsa been a problem with Skype for something like 9 months. It has something to do with the Mogul's chipset and a copyright issue. It used to work with old versions of Skype, but, as you observed, no longer, as you can no longer talk or hear.
Don't bother to ask Skype. They never answer this question forthrightly! Your best bet is to forget the issue and move on.
You are right, the "new" audio engine has something with the Mogul's chipset, the older GIPS audio engine worked but Skype can no longer distribute that audio engine. I have forwarded this issue, but I don't know if/when is going to get fixed. Logically the audio engine developer is also involved not just skype. //Quote
Is anyone successfully using Fring on a Vibrant? I have a rev 2 ffc installed, Bi-Winning V2 and Fring used to work pretty well. I can't say exactly when, but sometime in the last month or so it started having problems with mic volume. I make a test call, and I can hear myself, but just barely. People I call complain about being barely able to hear me. The camera works fine.
I see that some people are saying that Fring is working with CM7. I was wondering if there are any other roms that Fring might be working well with? Or if anyone has any idea how to adjust the mic input? Thanks!
Funny you should ask that I was starting to think I was going crazy. My mic volume was fine before but I flash new roms a lot and don't really check if the mic volume is working properly. But for some reason I am having the same issues... camera works fine but mic volume is really low. I don't remember which rom I had that had the mic sound working properly and can't seem to find one that does.
Strangely enough, using the voice recorder records my voice at the expected volume. I started to think my phone got busted somehow. I tried increasing mic sensitivity on the voodoo sound app but that doesn't work either.
Maybe it's a fring issue. I'll try another video chat app and report back if I find something else.
Currently I am running Bi-Winning v3.
Well, I guess that answers the question as to whether I should update to Bi-Winning v 3.0 to solve the problem.
I beleive this is a Fring thing. I've gone so far as to pull and older version of Fring out of an old Titanium backup and installed that apk. (v 2.4.4.2). The older version seems to work better, although the mic volume is still not great. I think that I would have viewed it as OK in the past, though.
If you'd like to try the older apk, let me know and I'll post it somewhere.
Today I wanted to use skype (the newest version) on my flyer with videochat, I recently upgraded my flyer (BB version) to honeycomb and didnt use skype since then.
Well i know that skype was working completely on Gingerbread, but when i tried videochat today, the camera lighted up (the small green led besides it) and voice and everything worked, however i was not able to get a picture of my camera.
Does anybody have skype working with the flyer and the release version of honeycomb?
Or does anyone know whats causing the problem?
Best regards
Marius

I have the BB Wifi Flyer and Skype works perfectly including both cameras, for me on HC offical release, rooted.
What version HC are you using?
The standard stock release version that globatron posted in his thread. So its the official HTC release with root.
Ill try wiping the skype data and see if it works then. Its really weird, can't use either of the cameras it just gives me a black screen nothing else
Ok I got it fixed, I just wiped the data reinstalled skype and now it works ... weird.
Has anybody managed to get Skype to work with a bluetooth headset and mic?
I can pair and use my BT headset for listening to media files and can make a Skype test call but the audio bounces back to the speakers after the first word..?
Skype has some weirdness with Bluetooth on many devices and since the phone functions for Flyers are not yet working in HC, the Bluetooth profiles may not be fully functional as well.

I've found another problem with Skype on the Flyer.
Audio during a call is only mono.
This is true for both a wired headset and the speakers....
Any ideas?

The Audio from the other called? Isn't it coming through a single mic? How could it be stereo?

What I should have said was that audio only comes thru on one channel. The left side only when using the speakers, earphones or a headset w/Mic.
When I use Skype on my android phone it comes through on both channels, same with the pc too.
The audio routing and libraries are a god awful mess in linux and therefore android. Who knows if its a Skype problem or a htc or a HC problem. At least it works, even this is a miracle in Android audio
I think it must be an HTC problem. I called tech support and they gave the standard answer that it might be resolved in a future update...
i have a lag on my front camera anyone else experience this with the hc upgrade? i tried wiping skype and reinstalling but its not helping...any fix for this??
I am experiencing the same lag on my View (running stock HC). The lag appears on both front and back cameras. I've tested the front cam video with Google Video Chat and it works much better.
Can someone else please let us know how SKype video is working on their View/Flyer, on official HC, GB or other ROM?
Thanks
I use stock GB and all appears to be fine - other than the sound only coming through on one channel (left side).
Are any of you guys getting sound on left and right channels during a call?
Stock HC , rooted, it just works. Just installed and both front and back cameras work fine.
Hi there,
I bough a htc eris to have a nice skype phone while traveling. The problem is that skype is choppy.
I am using skype from the market.
I tried : using stock, using froyo, ginger bread and few roms, I tried skype installed on the sd card, off the sdcard, tried to overclock the phone, underclock it, played around in the audio setting, tried without the proximity sensor, with headphones etc... but the problem is so similar from one version to another that I doubt it's the actual os.
I tried the audio to listen to music and that was flawless...
The problem is that skype is really choppy - the person I call hears me ok, but I loose little bit of conversation ... when it's a recorded message it's even worst for some reason.
Does anyone uses the Eris HTC with wifi only and have a good skype connectivity ? (It would help to find that out first). If so what version are you using? Anyone else have trouble with skype wifi on the eris ?
Thanks
