Does anyone know how to make the webcam or video call on skype working on viewpad 7e?
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
It's impossible.
We need Android 2.3.
The only videocall that works is Tango, BUT ONLY with the REAR CAM so it's useless.
Google+ don`t work either.
So. we must wait and pray! xD
fring works front and rear
That's correct
But sadly Fring does not have a Desktop application. But... it's something
The viewpad 7e is built in with gingerbread but it doesnt work :/

Minimal problems getting it to work with my wife's Viewpad 7e. The trick is to use that silly 3rd party marketplace (not the amazon one). I originally tried to copy the apk file to the tablet, it installed, it loaded up, but wouldnt log in. Using the marketplace version, worked just fine.

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.

Hey guys , was just browsing and didnt see this anywhere here . nc2nc2 over at the Epic 4G forum has posted this to get a modded flash that supports hulu on the Epic 4G . I just tried it on my Fascinate and it works like a charm .
Original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841472
Instructions:
1. Boot into Recovery (ClockworkMod). Flash the file from the link below and Reboot
2. Open market, navigate to adobe flash player, and uncheck automatic updates for adobe flash player.
3. Get your hulu on! Open hulu app - Watch hulu!
If you are having problems, uninstall Adobe Flash updates in the Market app and try again.
I had nothing to do with this mod . It worked for me and thought i would spread the word .
Worked great for me. Only issue is it doesnt play in full screen.
Not working for me. I flashed and installed and it says "Hulu is not supported on your platform..."
I installed the apk and flashed the zip. Any ideas? Are others getting this to work?
Dan
Scratch that. I did not uninstall flash updates. That is looking like a must. Works great. And as far as not being full screen, just zoom in and you are full screen. Works great.
Dan
thanks it actually works...ok.Intermittently.
Works good.... Flash the first file install second... Change setting in market. Thank you!

I uninstalled the Hulu app but the flash edit works great. Video actually looks pretty good in Dolphin browser using the desktop user agent!
It works for me.. but it's really really choppy. Also if I go to hulu.com in the browser it won't work; however, if I follow the link for hi res from the hulu app it will... go figure.
Works great, thank you!!!!!
"You know what the problem is with you, son, all of your brains are in your head and not in your feet."
Wont work installs ok according to cwm and apologize installs fine but says its not supported stock and dolphin browser
I did this on tuesday and its been working fine the only problem is if you use a bluetooth headset the audio comes in really choppy
Works!!! Thanks!!

Please update your Tango app. I just tested it. It works on my 2.2 streak running streakdroid 1.81.
I love this video call app. enjoy!
And by working I mean the front facing camera is recognized and I am able to switch back and forth between cameras during a video call.
OMG FINALLY i grabbed my phone as soon as i saw this post
Just Tango'd my brother who has the EVO, worked fine, decent visuals under the limits of Wifi that I'm under at work, #happycamper
Just updated to 1.8.1 and tried to install tango but I keep on getting error message that I have insufficient memory when I install it. Tried to install other apps like yahoo messenger to check but it was ok. Anybody else having a problem installing tango?

Been using ooVoo for awhile now. No issues. Love it. Will try tango soon.
I was looking at how yahoo video plug-in uses the HTC front camera and found out that it calls “com.htc.hardware.twinCamDevice.FrontFacingCamera. getFrontFacingCamera();” to load it. So I baksmali-ed the com.motorola.hardware.frontcamera.jar and changed it to look like the HTC version so YM can use it.
ADB Method (YOU MUST BE ROOTED TO APPLY IT):
1. Extract YMFrontCamADB.zip
2. Connect your device in Debugging mode (Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB Debugging)
3. Run YMFrontCam.bat and follow the instructions.
4. Close the process for YM plug-in.
5. Make a video call.
YMFrontCamCWM.zip and YMFrontCWMCamRemover.zip can be used for CWM un/installation
NON-ATRIX devices should use the ADB method as the CWM method is specific for Atrix only. If the ADB method doesn't work, download the com.htc.hardware.twinCamDevice.zip, extract com.htc.hardware.twinCamDevice.jar, copy it to your /system/framework and change the permission to 644
2011-05-31 - Updated to support more devices.
Gingerbread devices (using the standard 2.3 front camera API)
Motorola
Samsung
LG
Dell Streak and Streak 7 (Untested)
Huawei (Untested)
Other htc devices without the com.htc.hardware.twinCamDevice.jar (Untested)
Feel free to edit the source and make it work on your device
2011-05-31 - Updated YMFrontCamADB.zip script to fix mount command on other devices. The new script requires busybox (rooted devices should have it anyway)
2011-06-11 -Updated YMFrontCamADB.zip and com.htc.hardware.twinCamDevice.jar to fix the exception in integer "Parameters" values (samsung, dell, lg). Source code FrontFacingCamera.java.zip is updated as well. CWM method NOT updated.
2011-07-03 - After more than 2 months of hiding and distributing the APKs in secrecy, I’m now attaching them in here. I was advised not to post modifications for Google Market APKs here and so I did but as I can see in other threads, everything is allowed.
For a fix that does not need root and ADB stuffs, you can download the APK versions. First you have to uninstall the YM and YM plug-in from the market, install yahoo.im.apk (a must) and choose one among the plugins that suits best your need.
There are 4 versions of the plug-in I made. Some users reported that their devices got the wrong camera orientation (side-ways, or flipped image) and so I made 3 additional versions that add 90, 180 or 270 degrees clockwise to the orientation. It might or might not show the correct orientation on the android device but the transmitted image should be correct. Another thing is that, FFC and back cam doesn’t always have the same orientation so fixing the other might break the orientation of the other; so choose which cam you prefer to use.
Awesome! Haven't tried it out yet because I'm not home, but sure hope it works. I wonder if it works with other apps... any chance of looking at Vtok and Ovoo?
EDIT: Confirmed, it works with Yahoo. I used the com.htc.hardware.twinCameDevice.zip method and not the CWM flash, but have no reason to imagine that the other method wouldn't work as well. THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Doesn't seem to work. I used the cwm zip to apply the update. I can see the flip camera icon but it never switches to front camera.
Update: removed and applied again through cwm, works like charm! Thanks for sharing.

I have a modified version of ooVoo that works with the atrix's front camera but I'm not sure if I can post it here or not.
I believe though that ooVoo will very soon release the version that supports the atrix and the front camera. Their code actually includes the loader class for the front camera but for some reason, it is not yet included in loader array. Maybe it is still under testing.

What version are you using? I'm using the french 4.2.1 sbf (bell). Maybe it's just a versioning issue. I'll make one tonight (GMT - 5) that will actually load and use the motorola library to avoid versioning issues.

You have to mount /system as read/write. If you don't know how, it should be easy to find out on google.

I remember seeing that Skype with video was out for the thunderbolt, any way we could make that work using a similar method?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
According to what a few other people have said, that app was coded with a lot of lines of code specific to that device... so it would practically be quicker to start from scratch.

Do you believe that this will work with the Xoom as well seeing how they have the same camera drivers?
It's sure worth a try, I bet so. If not, the same method (renaming the default camera framework file to the htc version) would work. Try it.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I've updated it and changed the code to simply load and use the existing driver from motorola. It should be easy now to port to other devices.

same here, it force closes after using whatever camera app (I used stock camera and Camera 360, both resulted to FCs). I'm suspecting that it's a ROM compatibility issue. Haven't tried it yet. I'm on MotoGinger II.
Anyone else having same problems on other ROMs?
