Has anyone had issue with Yahoo IM ? I can't seem to get it to use front facing camera on video chat. This first happen with EVO, but then they fixed in next version.
Anyone?

I have the same problem. Tried to change it while in Messenger then tried to change it to front camera in the camcorder app and then go the Messenger. Still didn't work.
Have you tried Skype? I cant get that to work at all.

I don't think Skype video chat is available for our phones yet.
Skype works beautifully on our evo 3D's

The front facing camera is gone from YM in gingerbread. It worked on our evos before gb update. On my old evo, I got it to work from using this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087769

Use Tango
I use Tango. It's cross platform so you can video chat from Android to iPhone.
Skype still doesn't support video for Android but they are working on it.

Tango works on the Atrix and iPhone 4, my wife and I use it. I do not believe any other video chat app will currently work cross platform with the Atrix.

I know we had the fix before but after the mandatory update of y! messenger it no longer works... I was wondering if anybody has an updated fix?
Since I've gotten my thunderbolt I haven't been able to successfully video chat using any applications. And I was wondering if anyone else was having this problem or if it was just me

I'm using Qik on CM7.
The only issue it has is the fact that the other party sees me upside down.
Thanks for the response im guessing that means the problem is with all thunderbolts

The leaked version of Skype worked alright on mine
Tango works ok with crappy quality with iBoners and an atrix
Sent from my ADR6400L
has anybody used the new fring group chat or qik app? how are those working?
The leaked Skype works great, sound is alot better than Tango. Also the Skype works with Bluetooth which I could never get with Tango. I just can't get it to work on CM7, but I just got gTalk to work on CM7. Haven't been able to test it out but it installs and says I'm avaliable for audio and video chat. Ill update once I get home and check tho.
(Edit-- well gTalk looked good, but it was force-close city and no video. Tried clearing cache and fix permissions, but still no go. Back to Dad BAMF and Skype video for now, I guess.)

You know there was also a similar problem worth the xoom. You may want to look at how they got gtalk to work.
Yep, the leaked Skype is probably one of the best options at the moment, until we get Google's upcoming video chat, at least.
Yahoo messenger is where its at

I didnt think the leaked version of Skype was secure.
In this article on Droid-Life, it specifically states: "NO, the leaked Skype with video has not been fixed."

So, is it safe to be using the leaked version?

its fine as long as you dont go downloading malicious apps from the internet. be smart and youll be ok.
I'm going away for a month and would like to video chat with my wife and baby via my Thunderbolt to her laptop.
I have the Tango app installed, but there is no version that is available for a computer. We all know Skype doesn't support video on our Thunderbolts...yet.
What can I use? Am I missing something?
There is a leaked version of Skype that works well on froyo. Qik is also decent. I also have used oovoo and its quite good on my thunderbolt.

Did u try oovoo . com (I can not put links becouse I'm a nooby) hope you're like it
i didnt try the most recent version but the older one surely didnt work
Fring maybe? Never tried it myself but heard good things about it.

Many things show up as incompatible. You need to side-load the apk.

There was a working tutorial for fring around here. I'll see if I can find it.

Fring & Skype Test AIT 101
I've tested the newest Versions of Skype and Fring. Only Fring has shown video, and that was in a testing scenario.
Fring-The feed appeared choppy and laggy.
Sype-Other person in the call(which i attempted repeatedly to make VideoChat from both ends) could hear me perfectly aside from the echo from the speakers(just add headphones) but I wasn't visible, and neither was he.
Archos IT 101
Try SipDroid VideoSMS
Yahoo Messenger with Video plugin works.
Have you tried reelportal? It uses Adobe Air. I tried it on my phone, but I can't remember if I tried it on the Archos (which I don't have available right now to check). It's a bit different from most other options, but it does let you video chat to PCs.

Skype
I installed skype from market on the stock rom and had Video calls. SO far so good.
The same skype backup in moded rom (King Cobra / Leeroid) and I only have voice calls.
I tried downloading and installing again from market buit no joy, no video calls.
It seems skype mabe can't access the front camera in moded roms.
KingCobra and Leeroid both have the Amaze Camera app instead of the standard camera, could this be the problem?
Does anybody have any clues?
If you go into the settings in the Skype app there is a checkbox to enable video calls

none, nothing of the sort because skype doesnt recognise the front camera...I#m sure its because the standard camera app has been replaced with Amaze

that's such a good rom.
I don't see any reason for a ROM to replace the Stock Camera app. It's so good.
