Go to sleep

Hey when you awaken can you see if you can make the vid call to work for the viewsonic gtab?

I have it running CM7.03 (running 2.3.3) and the normal skype works but it doesn't support vid calling dammit. LOL I'd gladly "buy you a beer" if you can make it happen! :D

Thanks again!

[Android Apps and Games] GwynBleidd:
Good night and check your PMs too! :)

In case you can make it work on Transformer or SGS 2.2.1 or both, I'd be glad to donate some fair amount and I'm sure others would as well.

As for 2.2.1 and front facing camera support, Fring, ooVoo, Tango, Yahoo IM all work on Froyo if I'm not wrong (just had a video call via Fring to test), so I guess it should also be possible with Skype.
[Android Apps and Games] Shelnutt2:
I'm getting the same thing on my HTC Hero (cdma) running CM7. I've tried both versions, and I also loaded up stock skype 2.0, logged in, backed it up with titanium backup, then I restored the data and opened skype. I hoped it would save my login state and maybe get past the login issue. However it did not, while it saved my username and password it still dropped me back to home screen without FCing and then went to the status bar. Tried with both versions also. I thought I might be able to get the rear camera option working on my hero.

Not sure if it's the no front facing camera, the arm v6 hardware or just some other software issue that is causing the problem.

Great work though. Love the xda community and making the impossible possible :).

I'm on epic 4g running ef02plus, which is gingerbread leak. When I click video call, it just says initializing video, then goes back to the contact page. It doesn't make the call. I'll try flashing bonzai 12 and see if it works later on.
[Android Apps and Games] scottlinux:
Samsung Captivate running CM7 nightlies (Android 2.3.4)

Works great for video calling - though this model does not have a front facing camera (only rear).

I am able to see video of my caller, but they only see a black box for me.

Edit: You can switch to back camera during call, and that works, thereby sending your video to the other caller.

With only one camera, all you need to do now is hold the phone up to a mirror. Point the lens side towards you, and view your screen from the mirror. Video calls with only a rear camera! :)

Yay!

I tried the "File Explorer" function of Super Manager and I was able to copy the files from app and framework on my unrooted Nexus S. Maybe you can copy the files to your sdcard first and then transfer to your pc.
[Android Apps and Games] droidrx:
I'm not sure but it could be a permission problem on your destination folder. try to open the command prompt with admin rights
[Android Apps and Games] reversenext:
I have the framework but it's 16MB in .rar form. How can I get it to you?

I couldn't get "/system/app/com.motorola.Camera.odex" it kept coming back as if it didn't exist.

please advise.
[Android Apps and Games] droidrx:
Maybe just pull the whole /system/app folder first and then find the odex for the camera on your pc.

You can upload the files to some public data storage and then send him or post the download link
[Android Apps and Games] reversenext:
I just noticed that the "com.motorola.camera.odex" is in the framework. Is that the only file you need? I'll attach it just in case. I hope I have helped the cause and not made things worse.

Reverse
[Android Apps and Games] droidrx:
The full framework folder is actually needed because unlike normal APKs, odex files usually contain IDs (numbers not names) when decoded and that makes it hard to understand.

With the framework files, you can issue a command in baksmali to change those IDs with names that are usually within the framework files.
[Android Apps and Games] reversenext:
Here is the .odex and .apk from the system/app dir.

I'm just throwing sh@t up so hopefully i have at least givin you what you need.

Has anyone tried the new Skype version 2.1.0.46 which finally supports video calls for the Galaxy SII (among others)? Wondering if there are differences. I'll stick to the custom version as I want the excellent additions such as no auto-start and an exit button, but I am curious.
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
Skype 2.1.0.46

I think nobody yet knew there was a new Skype version, but indeed there is! From August 4! It's version 2.1.0.46 :D

Changelog:

What's in this version:

Video calling is now available on the following Android devices:
Samsung Galaxy S II
Samsung Galaxy S
Samsung Droid Charge - Verizon
Samsung Galaxy Tab
HTC Desire (2.2)
HTC Thunderbolt - Verizon
HTC Sensation
HTC Evo 4G
HTC Evo 3D
HTC Incredible S
HTC Desire HD
HTC Flyer
LG Revolution - Verizon (2.2)
Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY
Sony Ericsson Xperia ray
Sony Ericsson Xperia mini pro
Acer A5
On Android 2.2 (Froyo), only the back camera will work.

Sounds like many people can now natively use skype video calling even without this mod!

Emm, theos0o, you ARE gonna update your mod right? ;) :D
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
What!?

There's a new version out?

Holy ****.

edit: Woah barty, that's a quite decent list :p

Will check it out asap!

edit2: they got a video-calling toggle in settings.

Hello guys! :D

hahaha
[Android Apps and Games] Nitsson:
Yeah, figured I might be the first... was just sitting on the train minding my own business and there it popped up :D And naturally theos0o will work on this one ;)

Yeah, pretty decent list! Look forward to your findings :)
[Android Apps and Games] plavush:
There is no EXIT option in 2.1.0.46
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
You mean in the new version (2.1.0.46)?

Yes there is no exit button.
[Android Apps and Games] Nitsson:
Of course there isn't in the official Skype version ;)

That's what we have theos0o for :D

the 90 degree rotation issue

theos0o, did you ever manage to get around that 90° image rotation issue? (kernel problem I think was the general consensus)

I haven't tried your v06 build and am wondering whether to go with the official skype for a while - until you get your hands on it and get us an exit button :-)

but I can't use it with the image rotated as it was..
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
Phone/rom/more details please.

edit:

Are you guys in a hurry for v07?

Maybe I can upload a beta version ;)
[Android Apps and Games] tracemonkey:

update: confirmed that the new official version works fine with my ROM (ie no weird 90° rotation) - just waiting for an exit button now :-)
[Android Apps and Games] uzi2:
It may be better to devote your time to the new version. From what I gather, the only change is to make more devices able to use video, so they may have adopted your approach.

It would be great to see your other changes applied to this version.
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
But.. v07 is based on the new version.. :)
[Android Apps and Games] jaksau:
Does it have portrait video calling??
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
Nope.

/10chars
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
Hi theos0o, just curious, how are you dealing with the improved support for more devices in the new skype in your mod v07? Surely the new skype will, for some devices and in some scenarios) work better then the (sometimes re-engineered) support for devices in this mod. Do you have a new option to switch between the native skype video calling code and the video calling code in the mod, in order to have maximum compatibility? (first people should try the native video implementation of skype - don't force enable video calling -, and if that doesn't work, they can try the features of your mod - force enable video calling - with the additional options and rotation features and what not, to try to get it to work that way). Or am I seeing it wrong?

Edit; perhaps it is exactly as I put it down here. In that case an indicator in the settings would be really nice ("skype already supports video calling on your device, don't enable force video calling!" Or; "Unfortunately skype doesn't support video calling on your device, you can try to force enable video calling here!"
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
I think droidrx was gonna work on portrait video calling in his froyo mod sometime soon, perhaps if he succeeds, theos0o can grab his code :)
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
I think that there will be no need for force-enable.

Tweaks like avoid setFPS etc. will be there though.

Most camera and sound settings are working too.

Just need to fix some of them.

Seems like the new Skype does not like big resolutions. Hmmm.

I had always been thinking to implement that, but hell I am toooo lazy and noob :)
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
Yea, I'm curious whether skype already force-enabled video calling for all devices in this new update. Perhaps they did and they just had this list because they were positive it worked correctly on those devices. Curious if the new skype allows video calling on devices that are not in their list... Maybe the internal skype code already fixes a lot of things (setfps, rotation, etc etc) automatically to allow support for so many devices. So maybe those settings aren't needed anymore, but then again, maybe they are still needed.

Why not just throw out a v7 beta once you are satisfied with it, and then we'll see the responses of the users to find out?
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
Just saw your post lololol.

You shouldn't have any problems.

Are you holding your phone in landscape mode? Or maybe you're talking about the mirroring issue?

That's what I'm going to do.

I can definitely see some crashes in voice/video calls, that do not seem related to my code. hmm
[Android Apps and Games] dito33:
Force video calling not working on Acer Iconia, made skype crash.

Please include in the list.
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
What did you use?

Theos0o mod v6?

New skype in the market?
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
Oke, just tested the new market Skype 2.1.0.46. My device is not on its list of supported devices, but I can still enable video calling in the Skype settings (it was enabled by default by the way).

I can make a video call, but all I see is black screen. I cannot see my own preview, I cannot see the video of the other person. The other person cannot see me either. Tried to switch between back and front cam (even though I only have a back cam), but didn't help anything.

With the correct settings, videocalling worked perfectly on my device in theos0o mod v06. So it indeed looks like all those extra features of the mod are still necessary (except force-enable video calling i think!), even when it's based on Skype 2.1.0.46. Can't wait to test it and see if I can get videocalling to work in 2.1.0.46 modded :)
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
Woahhh.

Just checked their blog and saw @ known issues this:

Galaxy S 2.3	Null pointer exception in VoicePlayback.	None available

That's the crash I was talking about.

They must be kidding, they added a crash since last update? lol!
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
More changelog / more information about the new 2.1.0.46 Skype:

Source: official skype blog

So that sounds like the force-enable video calling advanced setting is definitely not needed anymore. People who do not have a neon CPU can not enable video calling either, so no more crashes or asking why it doesn't wanna sign in :D
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
barty can you try one build for me?

wanna see if "Force one camera" is needed, and generally your feedback :p
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
Of course, when can I expect it? Asking cause it's kinda bedtime, and if it's gonna take at least some more hours then I better go to sleep ;) Otherwise I'll try right now!
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
I'll PM you within 10 minutes
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
By the way, also happened to notice that android 2.2 is now officially supported for video calling, with the limitation of using only the rear cam however. So that means it will be the same in mod v07. I feel more and more that theos0o and droidrx mods should be merged and efforts combined, as the only differentiation was the focus on android 2.3 (theos0o mod) vs android 2.2 (droidrx mod) compatibility. But that's not for me to decide, and hey I'm not complaining :)
[Android Apps and Games] dito33:
I think it updated from the market, I was using v06.
[Android Apps and Games] Dr_Sam:
Before updating the official build you must uninstall the modded version with TB otherwise you will still use the modded one :(

whipe skype data en reinstall worked for me

@ theos0o

Ok I tested it on my HTC Desire Z with Cyanogen 7

After reinstall en enable-in Video. It works "out of the box". No more need for "Avoid setFPS" which I needed in the last version of the officail skype.

But 2 things happen for me:

1) contacts cam-screen is smal and my own cam is the big one... Which I dont want ofcourse... in v6 in videocall you could change that.. that option is now gone

2) the contacts cam is flipt... left is right and right is left... (yes i checked how the cam is sendin from the sender)

I know.. its a beta :) hopefully my english is good enough ;)
[Android Apps and Games] ChoctawT:
Its just won't work for me... the video its still rotated =[
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
You can double tap the small video feed and they will swap.

No idea.. :p
[Android Apps and Games] maumaus:
sorry xda is slow... so i editted later... Hmmm double tap? ill try... It used to popup a window... (edit.. which i tough was for switching between front and back camera... but i only have back.. but it did switch the image of the sender and me on the desire z.. so i tought it was for that :) oops... never new about the double tap)

And hopefully you can mirror the camera of the sender :P

I still get an incidental re-installed request from skype.. after full wipe of program... But after trying again it works :)

New version supports rear cameras in Froyo.

For some reason, it is disabled on some devices though (which is super annoying). My tablet has one camera, its in front but is considered the "rear" camera to the system. But the video option isn't in settings on the new 2.1 official release from today.

Is anyone looking to open up and modify the new app released today? I know there is less motivation now that most devices are officially supported. But there are still some of us who can't use it!
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
which device? was it working on my previous builds?

i think i'll make a force toggle again, tomorrow
[Android Apps and Games] ChoctawT:
The camera wont rotate for me
[Android Apps and Games] Dishe:
Its a Viewsonic G-Tablet, running Froyo. It didn't work on your old build, I assume because of the lack of the Gingerbread API. Even Tried it with a GB rom, but since this device lacks a real official GB port, there is no native api for the camera. The app would crash after login each time I tried a modified apk. Meanwhile, I'm pretty sure the camera is considered the "rear" since it is the only camera in the system.

Other apps from the market that would use the rear camera use the front one on this device, so I assume that is how it works.

The new Skype is supposed to allow use of the rear camera in Froyo now, as long as you enable it in settings. But it does not appear in settings on my device. Skype said on their announcement:

"Unfortunately, if you cannot see the video calling settings, it means your Android phone does not meet the minimum requirements needed to make Skype video calls. "

I'm not buying the "minimum requirements" thing. It should work. We need to find out where the restriction is in this new app.
