From today, Skype is out of beta. But I still can't activate video chat on my Mozart. Just wanted to know if it is only me or anyone else is also facing this issue.
Video chat is working with my.Mozart. but I'm using the back camera.

Thanks kkcheong.
I tried video chatting at a higher speed WiFi (256kbps) and it worked without any problem. Earlier I was using 30kbps. Lesson- Video chat on Skype on WP7 doesn't work well at low speed.
Mods please close this thread if they see it fit.
It works great, we use the back camera !!!!
on this topic has anyone been able to use the earpiece to listen to other people though skype? because whenever i try and even press the speaker button on skype it just plays through the main speaker

I've been using the Skype app modified to work on 3g with my Nexus for a while now, messages and voice both work fine for it. But when trying it on my Mytouch 4g, it can't log me in. Is anyone able to log in with Skype? And are there any decent Skype alternatives?
I tried Skype but it would only let me make video calls over wifi. Not 4g. I use Tango as my alternative most of my friends have it so it works out.

You can not make any video calls using skype on anyphone other than N900. so how come you are able to make them on MT4G
skype for MT4G will work over WIFI and 3G
This version of skype will work with any android phone over wifi and 3g, there is just one flaw, make sure you call the other person on skype as receiving calls on 3g would be charged by skype

I am curious as well. In the N900 you have options to call with ot without video. I have not seen that in any Android version of Skype. BTW, I think i heard someone mentioning that the thing from the fruit company has now a version of Skype that does video.
I don't understand why is taking Skype so long to release a video call version for other OSes. My N900 is over a year old and the video works quite well even when it is not WiFi.
I use skype everyday for (skype>skype) (skype>phone) and (phone>skype) and have no issue on wifi or data. Which version are you currently running that your having this problem on?
downloading now!
Howdy fellow atrix owners
I was wondering if anyone else is having issues with the outgoing video chat volume. The person on the other end can barely hear me. I can hear them loud and clear. Ive used Fring tango and Skype and they have the same issue. My regular phone call volume on the other end is clear. some one please help! The video chat option is one of the main features that convinced me to buy this device.
Newb
So im guessing everyones video chat is working good then? Everyone i video chat with complain that they cant hear me even though i am yelling and close to the speaker.
Can someone please confirm that my problem is normal or not.
Qik and Fring both had significant issues with audio levels for me. Call recipients could not hear the audio, no matter how loud they set their volume.
Tango worked well for me, and Skype's audio has been fine, although both video and audio seem laggy on it.
Skype tells me that my device is not certified for video chat but lets me enable it. Video quality is horrible and sound still very low on the reciever end. I think my atrix hates me. Any one else have these problems?
Still haven't been able to get video chat working. Has anyone had this problem before? This is very frustrating.
Try with Google Talk
I don't video chat.
sorry.

Today I wanted to use skype (the newest version) on my flyer with videochat, I recently upgraded my flyer (BB version) to honeycomb and didnt use skype since then.
Well i know that skype was working completely on Gingerbread, but when i tried videochat today, the camera lighted up (the small green led besides it) and voice and everything worked, however i was not able to get a picture of my camera.
Does anybody have skype working with the flyer and the release version of honeycomb?
Or does anyone know whats causing the problem?
Best regards
Marius

I have the BB Wifi Flyer and Skype works perfectly including both cameras, for me on HC offical release, rooted.
What version HC are you using?
The standard stock release version that globatron posted in his thread. So its the official HTC release with root.
Ill try wiping the skype data and see if it works then. Its really weird, can't use either of the cameras it just gives me a black screen nothing else
Ok I got it fixed, I just wiped the data reinstalled skype and now it works ... weird.
Has anybody managed to get Skype to work with a bluetooth headset and mic?
I can pair and use my BT headset for listening to media files and can make a Skype test call but the audio bounces back to the speakers after the first word..?
Skype has some weirdness with Bluetooth on many devices and since the phone functions for Flyers are not yet working in HC, the Bluetooth profiles may not be fully functional as well.

I've found another problem with Skype on the Flyer.
Audio during a call is only mono.
This is true for both a wired headset and the speakers....
Any ideas?

The Audio from the other called? Isn't it coming through a single mic? How could it be stereo?

What I should have said was that audio only comes thru on one channel. The left side only when using the speakers, earphones or a headset w/Mic.
When I use Skype on my android phone it comes through on both channels, same with the pc too.
The audio routing and libraries are a god awful mess in linux and therefore android. Who knows if its a Skype problem or a htc or a HC problem. At least it works, even this is a miracle in Android audio
I think it must be an HTC problem. I called tech support and they gave the standard answer that it might be resolved in a future update...
i have a lag on my front camera anyone else experience this with the hc upgrade? i tried wiping skype and reinstalling but its not helping...any fix for this??
I am experiencing the same lag on my View (running stock HC). The lag appears on both front and back cameras. I've tested the front cam video with Google Video Chat and it works much better.
Can someone else please let us know how SKype video is working on their View/Flyer, on official HC, GB or other ROM?
Thanks
I use stock GB and all appears to be fine - other than the sound only coming through on one channel (left side).
Are any of you guys getting sound on left and right channels during a call?
Stock HC , rooted, it just works. Just installed and both front and back cameras work fine.
i have before x 10 a lot of phones and i use video call from my network with sony ericsson T 715 and nokia E65...both phones have only back camera...any way to use network video call on android phones with back camera because it's working with skype and yahoo?
Check for the Tango app. It lets you use the back camera for video calls like Skype.
The official Yahoo Messenger can do this, tested.

Hi there,
I bough a htc eris to have a nice skype phone while traveling. The problem is that skype is choppy.
I am using skype from the market.
I tried : using stock, using froyo, ginger bread and few roms, I tried skype installed on the sd card, off the sdcard, tried to overclock the phone, underclock it, played around in the audio setting, tried without the proximity sensor, with headphones etc... but the problem is so similar from one version to another that I doubt it's the actual os.
I tried the audio to listen to music and that was flawless...
The problem is that skype is really choppy - the person I call hears me ok, but I loose little bit of conversation ... when it's a recorded message it's even worst for some reason.
Does anyone uses the Eris HTC with wifi only and have a good skype connectivity ? (It would help to find that out first). If so what version are you using? Anyone else have trouble with skype wifi on the eris ?
Thanks
