hello ,
i am having sony ericsson xperia mini pro, sk17i. i was trying to make a video call the other day and actually could not find that option. by native video call i mean by using the standard dialer not using skype or google talk.
on doing some research i found that in all the xperia the native video call support is not there. however in galaxy s and galaxy s2 which i have used have the support for native video calls. i heard that other samsung phones also have that support (i am not sure though cause i havnot used them)
native video call support is present in even nokia symbian based phones( even the bada based phones too wave 2 to be certain about) but apparently its not there in xperia. here in india since data packs charges are quite expensive people prefer using native video call wich is provided by all the networks.
i was wondering if its possible for you to tell me if there is an way to make native video calls in xperia mini pro sk17i. is there some app in the market or developed by xda-developers that can do the job?? or is it possible in some other custom ROM.??
Using Android 4.0.4
Sony ericcson official firmaware
As I know we can't.
Can use only Internet video calls. Sorry bro. Even in a custom rom, It'n not possible.

As far as I know only some Samsung android phones currently support Native 3G video call support. Even in the new version of android 4.0 (Ice cream sandwich) it is not there. If the manufacturers provide, then only it will be there. Android DOESN'T support native 3G video call. In U.S. the data charges are bare minimum and all of them carry smart phones.. for them it is not required... same for Google. Wait for the Next version of android or go for a Non android phone ( a lot of cheaper phones support native 3G video call support).

Samsung uses their own touchwiz (or similar) for their android phones to have video call support. None of other Android phones support video call (native).
Please correct me if any other Android phone support 3G native video call support.
not support!
video call = video chat...
In croatia (country) dosent support it...depends on your country.

Video calling should be there in this phone. This is the only lack in this phone..
SE people, kindly think on this.
Nothing to do with manufacturer. T-Mobile uk Neo v has video call, network and country dependant

The manufacturer indeed has a lot to do with it. They provided a secondary camera but no support for native video calls over 3G network.

Hey guys!
I was wondering if regular video calls (not skype or google talk) are disabled on this device or just not supported.
I had older phones that support this feature and I'm shocked that it is not working on this one.
Does someone knows if this is by design or it could be enabled by tweaking/installing a new ROM?
BTW it is running stock ROM 2.3.4 compilation 4.0.2.A.0.58
Thanks a lot guys!
No, it's not supported
Sent from my SK17i using XDA App
not a single android phone have this feature afaik
do you mean video call using 3g? i am shocked to know that android can't do that. my trusty ~4 y/o Nokia N70 can do that without any problem. manage to make few video calls then i never used it again.
Maybe there is an android app which can able the phone to do video-calls... did you look for it??
J think is possible to enable video call 3g in native with a new dialer my samsung galaxy tab p1000 ( the first galaxy tab) have the video call 3g enable in stock rom and it walk like a charm
found a apk to instal it ...
j m sure it s possible !

Yes, I used it all the time with my Samsung Galaxy S 2, do you thing that the phone app of the SGS2 will work on a Xperia Mini Pro?
Thank you all for your replies!
Hi folks,
Can anyone who has loaded up the leaked ICS tell me if the native dialer included video calling?
I'm not asking about Google talk or any other third party video call, just the native dialer
Thanks

i also want native video calling...
miss my old stupid nokia and sony ericsson that have native video call
Nope, I believe Android doesn't have support for 3G calling at all.

It is not about Android I think. Samsung phones have in built video calling over WCDMA network as I have heard.
It is just about writing the code. Native Android(Vanilla) does not have it.. it has to be developed which many manufacturers have skipped.
One of the few reasons why I'm still using my N8 as a primary phone.
Exactly, Dey,
I've come from a Samsung Galaxy S, which included the video call in the native dialer, and miss the option.
That and the telco include the native video calls in their billing, but any 3rd party would then be charged as data...

Hi everybody
I'm looking for a good call recorder for a sony xperia mini pro running a rooted android 4.04 ICS, no custom rom & no custom kernel until now (I've got it just from last week)
I've been recording ALL my calls since 2006 with a crappy nokia N70 (symbian s60) with an amazing app called "ultimate call recorder" by ultimateportable.
Never had a problem. When my mem card was full, the oldest calls were deleted, the app started and stopped automatically with my phone so
I didn't need to worry about it, only when I needded to look for a concrete recorded call for some reason. No beeps during call or other strange sounds, just...a good portion of code doing its job.
Now I've just migrated to android, I can play guitar with my phone, there are apps for...everything, but I still haven't found a good app who can even do a piece of what "ultimate call recorder" use to do in my old symbian s60 phone. At the end of the day, I'm using a phone...not a guitar, a game console or a music player. So I want it to do its job as a phone of this age and record my calls like the 2006 nokia N70 still does. It's amazing how a device like this can run debian & things like that, but what i really need for my job is a good call recorder
I'm pretty new to android and there's a lot of confusing info about this topic, I've tested a few free apps and a few trial apps and no luck until now, so thanks in advance.
Bump!
I am in the same situation mate. Have an xperia mini pro (sk17i) with rooted ICS, no custom rom or kernel. Except I don't have an N70
I've been using "Call Recorder by Clever Mobile" for about a week but it's a piece of crap (both in recording quality and in features).
I finally got fed up with it and spend am hour just now looking for alternatives once more.
All I found was this thread, and some app which doesn't work in ICS...
So, is there anyone with a (fairly low end) Xperia phone (perhaps from the 2011 range) who can recommend us a call recorder?
I'm using CallRecorder on GB. Don't know if it works on ICS. Try it!
Sent from my X10i using xda app-developers app
they removed call recording feature in ICS.
I had a lot of apps that did that in ginger bread when i updated it to ICS none of them worked.
The only work around is rooting your phone and installing cutom kernel that brings this feature back to ICS.

I heard something about that. But then how come Call Recorder by Clever Mobile works in ICS? I mean the audio is a bit muffled and clipped, and overly compressed, but it records both parties just as well.
Regardless, can you give a little bit more details on this? What kind of kernel? What keywords shall I search for?
Any tweak or mod that allow xps to make native video call over 3G? Like those samsung rom can do native video call? Thanks
I wish we could get this, I just went from a Sony Ericsson Elm to a Xperia U and was pretty disappointed to find it is lacking a somewhat basic feature that should be in any phone from the last 5+ years.
i wonder if there's a mod able to do this ..
