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!
Is there anyway for atrix to video call normal nokia n8 type video call capable phones?

How to make video calls via 3G? Standard video call function to another 3g phone. No Skype, etc.
LG 2x, SGS has this feature.

just use gtalk, tango or skype. lots of options. all are great.
Not sure what you mean by "standard video call" but without an app you wont get far. Tango, Skype, Yahoo, and Gtalk. They all work over 3G but Sprint's 3G is slower than a constipated turd so its better over wifi.

Video Call service is available from any operator of 3G mobile networks (not in the U.S. in my opinion). In addition to the button "call" for 3G phones should be a button "call with video." All Win Mobile devices with a front camera, symbian nokia phones and other 3G phones with front camera has support for video calls. Please watch these videos:
On Nokia youtube.com/watch?v=yiVWtOd-vDw
On Samsung Galaxy S youtube.com/watch?v=2lbpCJE1lcY

That's all pointless in the end. We don't all have the exact same phones. That's why Skype or other popular ones are best. Giving us more options. For every user on all devices.

Your own words I can say that Skype is pointless in the end. Because not all of my friends run Skype for the day. But 3g video call is a real replacement of traditional voice calls. If the subscriber does not support video call, then video call switches to traditional voice mode. Therefore, 3G video calls and video calls via Skype is a completely different services. sorry for my english
