Could you please upgrade to last version ?
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.skype.raider&feature=search_result
awesome. but i still prefer fring
i got a problem. not sure if its related to skype but still:
sometimes skype seems to interrupt my calls. not sure if it's only when it starts up while i'm calling or even when when there is an event in skype. after that i can't hear the other side anymore and have to stop the call and try again.
anyone else?
I tried the latest version from the first thread, but video is not working, so reverting to old one. Please update to latest version. Thanks!

The only issue is that it uses the back camera instead of the front camera.
An option pops up asking to flip cameras but i cant select it . Hopefully someone can help

ahhh.. looks like the new version fixed it for some phones. Has anyone tried it on the Streak? I'm quite happy with the Fring since 2.2, just need earphones to hear the other person properly.
Can anyone with 2.2 try this and report back if this works with streak?
Thank you!

G'day,
Nope... however, according to DJSteves latest 1.3 release, this should now be enabled.
As yet I have not tested.

So I'm having the same problem. Tried to install Google+ app on the Wildfire of my sister, but he says, he can't install it.
It's not rooted, no custom rom or anything, it's stock.
I think (can't look right now) it has Android 2.1 - which is, regarding to the Market, high enough for the Google+ app.
So is there any chance to install the Google+ app without rooting and flashing a custom rom?
It seems its dissapeared from the market for us, I know the new hangouts feature requires a front facing camera so I'm thinking that might be why it was pulled.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
Well, my DHD doesn't have a front face camera, but Google+ still works :-/
Well, now the market app isn't compatibel with the widfire anymore. If someone have the old version: DON'T UPDATE IT.
And for all, who want to have the old version installed with the apk, it is in the attachemend
Thanks, I'll try it as soon as possible, if it works, you deserved at least a thanks for your thanks meter :-D
oh you earned that thanks ^^
^^
it's in ferman. idk if it's translate it selfs. so it can be, that someone don't know what it is
Yes, it translates to English, v1..0.7 (latest one I think) works fine too except for the hangouts.
I tried pushing the front facing camera permissions but still I'm getting "this device doesn't support hangouts" other than that new version works fine.

Can anyone port new Skype to Defy so that Skype recognizes the back camera for videocalls ?
TNX in advance
Same here. Please someone...

Anyone knows a version that works (video) on MOTODefy ?
Anyone should descompile it, modify and re-compile..
Sent from my MB525 using Tapatalk
Its useless without a Front camera but i want it too
Send from my brain using Tapatalk
I want to use the video call function too
That's a good idea, i believe there will be a mod soon.
This would be very nice. Are there any skype mods for another phones already available and modded for the back-facing camera?
There were 2 threads about Skype with video working for Froyo/Gingerbread here on XDA forums. Can't find them now, were they deleted?
Yeah I tried a few cracked versions of skype, but I can only see the other party.
Got options for front and back cam, but it doesnt do anything
New official version of Skype is out and you can turn on video calls with back camera in options.
It doesn't work for my defy, but it does for some other devices that aren't officialy supported.
Anyone tried ?
I tried, but the back camera still dont work. We can just see the other person.
Hoping they will update soon Skype so we can videocall with our defy

In Defy Theme and Apps forum is a thread on a hacked app with extended functionality.
The tread
It works with suggested settings. Would like the official app to support this to. That way we can update easily. But it works.

That's what I was thinking, but, well, maybe OP has a mirror rig setup so he can use the camera (?)
I know that Viber is not officially compatable with the Wildfire, but I have installed the apk below and all is fine on my phone running jokerDroiD ROM
I've tried it too. It does work with cm7 based ruymanca rom.
With SUnAaBh.v.1.1 works without problems..
Call quality using this is really unbelievable!
When I first installed Hellfire the viber app force closed all the time so I uninstalled it but this works perfect, thank you!

Mine has sound quality problems. There're echos, delays and interruptions sometimes, though the free sms feature is working well. Are they working on fixing this?

It's pretty amazing what this app can do! Call quality is okay.

Hey I'm using the only Market I know, I guess everyone has the same?
The latest version 2.0.1 has severe problems with Wildfire and Hero, that's why it's not showing up in the Market of these 2 models. I'm using version 2.0.0

You can now download it for "partially-supported devices"
but as I have already said it is working fine on JokerDroid 4.2
Charlotte90T I am sure you have seen this post from Viber somewhere else on the web
Hi all,
This is a member of the Viber Development Team!
HTC Wildfire and HTC Hero are currently unavailable in Market, and that it is because we encountered severe issues when developing Viber on it.
However, we decided that we will bring it back to Market soon. Meanwhile, you can use this link to manually download the .APK intended for partially-supported devices: http://helpme.viber.com/index.php/K...View/100/16/cant-download-from-android-market

Yes,
I've dowloaded it from the market and had the same issues on sound calls.
With the text messages everything works well.
Anyone know's if any older version works better?
Thanks!

Version 2.0.3 works very well on HTC Wildfire
Considering to Root, to get viber to work. Anyone that have rootet, changed build File and testet viber? Dont bother to Root, if i know that viber wont work. I have 5.0 btw.
Cheers!
I'm using viber with unrooted 5.0. It works in a way as i tried making calls but the cancel button doesn't seem to work so i let the other party put it down. Volume is weak too when using speakers

Where did You download from? Which version? The one i tried, i just got force close at once i start the app!
I have it on my nexus s so i just extracted the apk file then transferred it and install. The version i have is 2.1.2.116554. A weird thing though as the first time I installed this I did get FC and doesn't work. After a few weeks, I installed again and it does work but with the limitations I posted above.

Tnx mate, worket with that version of the app!
not sure about viber but I am running Google voice and grooveIP on my 5.0 and can make free calls over Wi-Fi with no sound issues.
I have another app on my player that works like viber minus the sms though. It's called Tango. Nice video calling app
