That's because you didn't read the previous threads very well.
You installed version 2.0.0.47
The verison that supports video calling for EVO 3D ( Hacked version) is 2.0.0.45. If you update to version 2.0.0.47 you can NO LONGER use video calling on the EvO 3D because it's not officially supported yet.
Skype sucks.
uninstall 47 on Evo3D...video now works
I had (apparently) updated skype to .47 I used market to uninstall, then installed the downloaded .45 version.
When I ran that version it got to the login point and said I had to reinstall skype...
I realized that the original skype client was still running in the background.
I used Task Manager, looked at all running services, and stopped it there.
I then again tried to install the download, this time it took and logged me in.
Then it showed contacts and had an icon if video was available.
So I clicked on this laptop, and boom skype video over wifi!
Then I turned off wifi and tried again...it was obviously slower and choppier and skype complained, but it did show the two way video!
Thanks to all involved!
Skype and 3D
Can someone confirm if the EVO 3D can send 3D video using skype (if both side got a 3D smartphone) ?
I would say no, and even if it could it would force you to use the two cameras on the back. You can't do 3d video with one lense, so with both parties pointing the back two cameras at themselves how would you see what's on the screen?

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.

Try uninstalling the skype version you already have installed on your flyer. then install the one with video. That fixed it for me
Yeah, this definitely works. Now I can video call from my Flyer! I haven't tested it out yet, though. Can anyone confirm that the video call feature works, and doesn't force close or something?

Just installed Skype on my Flyer and had my first ever video call with my niece in California! Video and sound quality seemed pretty good and there were no noticeable delays or "skips". Audio was like talking on the phone....
This worked for me on sprint view
Gives wifi and 3g voice and video
Skype released an update today that released video calling to some devices.
"- Two way video calling is supported on the following handsets: Google Nexus S, HTC Desire S, Sony Ericsson Xperia neo, Sony Ericsson Xperia pro."
Is it possible to change some strings in the app to allow the video calling to work on other devices like the tab 10.1?

I am sure it checks the type of Device you are using to provide or deny access to the Video chat feature. Until Someone can Bypass that check we will have to continue to use it as it is.

doesnt work on galaxy tab 7' gingerbread.. too bad.

I am dying to have a functional Skype on the GT. I have a friend in Japan who I Skype with and another in the Philippines who I'll probably Skype with soon. It would be phenomenal to have it.
One friend of mine has video chat with GoogleChat on his SGT and said the person on the other end could barely hear them. Said he uninstalled and reinstalled, but could not get the volume out to any respectable level.
I'm hoping that's a software issue and not a terribad microphone.

Hey!
Can you tell us (or at least me) how you got it to work, because your version and the other version (45) both auto close when I try to login. I'm totally clueless.
Please reply
I don't believe it works on the galaxy tab. It works on my Galaxy S. The Tegra processor doesn't include the NEON extensions, which are used in the binary, thus it exits right away.

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.
