Is anybody on here able to initiate a video call via Google Talk from their g2 to a desktop Talk client? Every time I try it connects for 2 seconds and terminates the connection.
What'd driving me crazy is I can accept incoming video requests and it works perfectly.
I'm on a stock rooted device, pretty sure I had this problem before root.

At&t has a Wi-Fi only restriction. There's a guide on the forums to enable video chat over 3G. Are you on Wi-Fi? That could be the issue but I'm not to sure, when I get home I'll test.

Sorry i should have mentioned that. I've only tried this over wireless. I've also tried with 2 different desktop clients. Same thing with both can't make call but can receive call?

The one time I tried it did the same thing. I figure it is a Google Talk issue. I never used it much so I didn't worry too much but yes, I am experiencing the same issue.

Tried to another Galaxy SII Specifically on Sprint. Also tried with the web based client. If you see a video talk option, then you know it works. I've tried with Desktop (web based or iChat based) and Phone based, to no avail.

Perfect. Much thanks!
My parents have Androids, but on Verizon (Droid Bionic's). I thought it was weird, but this is the same thing I was seeing as well. Connects for a second or two, then disocnnects and says there's a problem with the network. If they contact me, it works perfectly fine.

I found an app that lets you easily make and receive phone calls thru your Google Voice Number. (assuming you have data connection)
GrooVe IP
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.gvoip&feature=search_result
I tried it and it works great... even works with the Flyer in speakerphone mode.
Its $3.99 in the Market... and may be worth it for some. Especially if you want to multitask on your Flyer or are oversears.
If you dont have a Google Voice Number, they are free.
Thanks for the tip.
And how does the mic on the flyer works for calls? Do you have speak close to the device?
Do people say they hear echo if you speak with them without a headset?
Thanks. I am using this app for my Galaxy Tab

How so I could use some help setting everything up
Edit Never mind I got it set up but to help out others
1)set up Google voice
2 install app
3 On Gmail you have to install the video chat plugin for your browser. Once you do this go to google voice
4 on GV go to voice settings under the gear icon
5 set up to forward to GTalk
6 Sign on on the phone
7 THERE YOU GO.
I tested on 3g/4g and on Wifi and it works great when you have a strong internet

you have to install the browser plugin first then once its installed hit the call button in GMail and make a test call. Once this is done go to google voice and hit the gear icon and hit the calls tab, then the option for Gtalk should show up
Other SIP CLIENTS :
The only one who have :
Dialpad included + Contacts(of your Flyer) + Video
Its:"Voip By Antisip"

Hey guys need some help. I got it installed and setup and can make calls!! THAT'S GREAT! However I'm unable to receive them. They come through on my EVO 3D just fine but nuthin on the tablet?!?! Any suggestions or ideas? I followed the the posted instructions but no luck. Thanks for any help.
Edit: Nevermind...Didn't realize there were 2 places for GTalk. One on the left and one in the middle. I hadn't changed the one in the middle to forward. Thanks for this it's working like a charm. Just wish the incoming call ringer was a little louder!
But its only in US.....not available to other country

edit... this actually works just had to fiddle a bit in google voice and afterwards was not getting incoming calls to work figured maybe i should log out of gv on my computer and bammm evo view started getting the calls so make sure to log out of google voice otherwise thats where the calls will go first before actually going to the tab.......great job guys made my evo tab just friggin more awesome....
now if they would find a way to root flyer,view would be bonus....
I don't know if anyone will use this method but I use QIK to video chat on WiFi and also while tethered to my tmobile cliq2. But it could be because I have tmobile and I remember typeing in my phone number. Just a suggestion.

One of my friends told me that you can't make them but you can join video chats in progress. The I can't confirm that's its true since I'm not old enough to make a google + account -_-.
In the descriptions on the market page it says u can do hangouts using video. Guess it is only on a couple of devices at the moment. Maybe it will be updated for us soon.

Do you have "Enable Always-On Mobile Data" checked in Settings > Wireless and Networks > Mobile Networks? Google+ uses the Google Push system. When you disable that setting, the only data that syncs are ones you can set to "poll" at a specific frequency.
If that isn't it, try wiping Google+ data in manage applications then see if it works. This has cured all of my Google+ sync issues. Lastly, try uninstalling it completely and reinstalling it.

I guess so. But it does this other weird thing too. You can move the page to the right, and there is sometimes more information , like and additional news item or video. I have tried setting the auto fit pages setting to on and off, but there is no difference. I also noticed there is no home button on the browser. Does anyone recommend maybe using a different browser?

if you havent done so on sprint. get on Google voice.(its free for sprint) u can use the official Google voice apps on your tablet to send text thru wifi, also received them.
i tried a bunch of apps on my touchpad but never found one that works as good as google voice. my touchpad and phone are both set up with google voice and it's integrated with my sprint phone number so no weird number to deal with. works great for me. only thing is once you integrate, no more going back to vvm unless you call sprint to get it set back up.

Just an fyi: If you want the push notifications, you have to press the version number like 10 times or something (I didnt count I just hammered it until the option became available lol)
TexTab without question. I love it, and the UI is nice and simple (uses BlueTooth). It uses your messaging app in that it uses your phone's signal and leaves the text message in the history of the conversation on your phone.

This is my current setup as well for sending texts from my pc, but I use mysms. It's always just been a little more reliable for me. Does anybody know if the new hangouts, which does sms on android now, supports/will support this functionality? I installed the new apk on my phone and received my sms through it. But I didn't see any text messages in gmail. I don't have an android tablet (yet) to test the hangouts app there.
For now I have disabled SMS in hangouts again, as it was extremely laggy (especially in a conversation with over 10000 messages. the stock sms app handles that better). I felt mysms was less reliable too.

I was hoping for the same thing. I was hoping that sms and mms would sync with hangouts so that I didn't have to create backups and such.
