Video color problem

2 theos0o

v12beta video call work very good on my chinese cortex A8 tablet, thank you!

Have only strange internal camera video color fenomenon: red color channel shown as blue and blue color channel shown as red, green is correct green. Checked with another video program and the camera color looks fine. Incoming video is ok.

it is any possibility to change in skype software cameras video channel ( red with blue)?

Please any idea.

Is there any Alfa version of the 12-th version of the modded skype soon to be expected? Or some 2.5.0.160-based modded version of Skype?
[Android Apps and Games] JUGOMAN:
GOOD WORK

take your time sr. Theo no rush. So far, excellent work, to which, we have become "addicted". Always wanting more!!

Can see me, can't see them in newest build.

HTC EVO4G running cyanogenmod7 version 7.0.3 (7.1 is a nightmare for me at least)

With Avoid setFPS set on I get my video (they can see it) but I can not see them.

In the last version I could see them but they could not see me. Either is an improvement over stock but would be nice if we could both see each other!

This is over WIFI btw. Last build same deal but also tried it over 4G which still I could see them but they could not see me. Great work tho keep it up!

Hi

Do you have plans to update your skype with based on new 2.5.0.160?
[Android Apps and Games] BatTusAi:
Can please anyone confirm what version of skype from thesoo that works on P1000 samsung galaxy tab? thanks
[Android Apps and Games] BatTusAi:
Anyone?
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
Have you tried the v12 beta? It's the only theos0o mod version that i believe should work on your tablet, so i think it's your only chance. Also try playing with some of the advanced settings. If it doesn't work, I'm quite sure the market 2.5.0.160 version will work.

UPDATE; i read that the P1000 model doesn't have a tegra2 processor and should therefore also work with v11 of this mod, in case you have no luck with v12beta. v11 has more advanced settings than v12beta, which might just make all the difference on your tab. Try them! Here's v11.
[Android Apps and Games] BatTusAi:
Thanks man.. My girlfriends planning to but this one or the 10.1 tab and asked me of video skype is working..
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
Sure mate.

I have little time so I can't promise anything, but I think I will start working on it soon.
[Android Apps and Games] galaktiker:
Theos0o, I sent you PM with bugs info and questions. Could you answer? Once Microsoft refused to fix bugs and develop Skype, you're our only hope now :)

P. S. By the way I'm ready to pay for stable build. Any useful work should cost money. :)
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
are you saying that skype announced they won't be continuing development for android any longer? i haven't heard of any such info

me too! but just a tiny bit, i'm unemployed, damn crisis :mad:
[Android Apps and Games] galaktiker:
They just add some more bugs to each new version and do not fix old ones. They offer 'support' with bot-like answering people and that's all. Just do nothing. Android department of Skype is disabled. And I think that Microsoft will not develop it (due to the reason we all know).

In fact I hope for Google and its future mix from google voice and gtalk :)
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
I on the other hand, am often surprised by the skype updates, solely judging from the changelog. Cause i don't use them, only the theos0o versions ;) But skype comes up with a new version with seemingly nice and well-thought-of updates every now and then :)
[Android Apps and Games] angusc:
I have tried a few times to install the official version of Skype but could never get the video to work. V11 always works so I have kept with that on my desire.

Hiya,

Any news already on 'remotely' killing skype ?

I have Tasker run skype on wifi connection, and want to kill it using locale execute plugin. Unfortunately the service respawns itself after killing.
[Android Apps and Games] galaktiker:
Finally, the v12 creator haven't answered my request. One more evidence that the application should be paid to stimulate author make it better. Freetime-application don't have future. Except several great developers...
[Android Apps and Games] dannielangel:
As I read the feature, I cant still see the feature in which skype is forced to used port 80/443.

This is very useful for me, since by using port 80, i can used 3g for skype for free.
[Android Apps and Games] m33ts4k0z:
Hello theos0o and thanks for the app. In my LG Optimus 3D the V11 works partially... On the Gingerbread if I enable video image preview I only get the back camera to work. The front camera remains black.

Also for some strange reason the app detects 3 camera.

Any idea or solution why is that happening?

Thanks in advance

EDIT: The app works great on the Optimus 3D after some modifications, thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] angusc:
You can surely donate and help him out that way. for all the hard work that he has already completed in bringing a working SKYPE to the Android platform long before SKYPE did anything about it, he deserves it.....

Same here. Running SGS with CM7.

Try it and tell me.

As for the flipped image on SGS front-cam.. hmm.

On my phone it's flipped even in stock camera app, I think.
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
Of course donations are always welcome but that's not the reason.

I have a lot of work to do for my university courses :(

I'll start working on the next version next week, even if it's just porting v12 beta features to the latest skype version.

Hopefully I'll get more time to get more things back working, but it won't be too easy as the code is quite different.

Skype video calling patch is not working for Motorola Fire XT530

Hi, Thanks for your help, but I tried to install this version on my Motorola Fire XT530 and followed your instructions to make video calls, after enabling force video call phone asks for restart skype but while loging in it terminates and remins silent.

Please post one more update suitable to my phone's model number

Regards,

L. S. Manohar
[Android Apps and Games] Yuna:
I think this is because you have ARMv6 CPU, not ARMv7.
[Android Apps and Games] sunilmanohar1982:
You mean since I have an ARMv6 CPU it is not working!! so please let me know any other solution for it
[Android Apps and Games] novicebg:
Yes! Exactly! The ARM v6 does not support video calls in skype (confirmed for me by theos0o) - it makes skype to force close and restart. Even on my clocked mini at 768mHz it doesn't work. So no way to make it work on X10 Mini for now and maybe forever, because the phones with ARM v6 are old already, and the developers for them are getting less and less every day.

front camera problem

my front camera's rotation is wrong. it is always off by 90 degrees. I have mytouch 4g using stock 2.3. does anyone know a fix? :confused:

Thanks Theo0so for this!!!! :)

EDIT: I back read the thread. Some features were temporarily disabled on v12. I'll try v11 and see if that works. :)

There's a Skype for Android version 2.5.4.21.162 floating around on the web. Not sure what's new, or whether the build is legit at all. Can't find the update on the market, nor on the skype website. If anyone is interested, here is a link.
[Android Apps and Games] knightz01:
Hey great find, thanks will give it a scan & have a go, didn't get along with 2.5 108 (buggy)

Sorry - I am new here and somehow am not able to find how to actually download the v12 file?

[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
Thanks a lot, it seems this is just a custom version of skype for "tom.com", or hacked by someone of tom.com (no idea what that site is, it's in chinese :P)... did you notice any added features or added fixes compared to 2.5.0.160?
[Android Apps and Games] knightz01:
Hi, well i have gone back to v11 for the extra's but,, I can say it was much smoother in eveything & fast to respond & as I have said before the video is much much clearer, nothing else jumped out at me new feature wise

Theos0o's mods work on ginger 2.3.xx not froyo( at least not advanced setting) Have tried on Froyo, and app force closes if you try to use "advanced" setting on the modded apk:( Since your phone is tegra 2 chipset, you will probably need to update fw to 2.3.xx. The first skype to support Tegra 2 (non Neon) is 2.5.108, so even current Droidrx mods, will not work either.

If I recall right, "Tom.com" were the ones responsible for providing the Chinese Skype versions that contain the "forbidden" words censoring filters (and god knows what other spyware) etc. Be aware!

2.• Send pictures, videos and files

4.• Improved look and feel with new graphics

5.• Voicemail improvements

6.• Better video quality on Tegra 2 devices

Enjoy
[Android Apps and Games] Idan73:
OK finally figured out what was causing the v12 not to exit properly compared to v11!

I like to unchecked signed in status always showing in status bar notifications and that causes the exit button to be non responsive.

This is a followup to my bug report a while back when 12.108 first came out. Still it fixes rotation on my phone so that's what I'm using even though v11 has more options. Using sgs2.

[Android Apps and Games] anonymous572:

[Android Apps and Games] screamy145:
Hello,

I just test the V12 and for me (htc desire in custom ROM Leedroid 2.3.3)

I don't have the option "force camera" ...

And on the V11 I have this option but Skype disconnect and connect every X minutes (+/- 3 min)

;-)
[Android Apps and Games] Carko:
This Skype mod doesn't work on my girlfriend's Archos 101 Internet Tablet (Froyo), can't see any advanced settings (force closes). Can this be fixed? Or is there any older version I can use?

But works great on my HTC Desire :)
[Android Apps and Games] JUGOMAN:
ARCHOS

Try Droidrx mods they work on Froyo, A8 cpu:)
[Android Apps and Games] maranello69:
take these words in consideration: "If something is working as it should, there's absolutely no need to modify it." (in this case, update it)

so, if v11 / even v12beta for some, is working just fine right now, why on earth would we request an update, who knows what is changed in the new releases and can cause a massive failure... better stick to the proper working versions and let the dev do its thing
[Android Apps and Games] _imac_:
In general I absolutely agree. And v12 is good enough for me and even video calls is working fine on my desire.

But there are a few good features in the new Skype. One of the important things is ability to send and receive files!!! So, do you think it's not important feature?

And it would be great to have it in the modes version.

That is why I'm asking the author about possible update.
[Android Apps and Games] barty22:
Don't agree at all, this mod is 3 versions behind of the official skype i believe, and skype has added features, fixed bugs, and improved compatibility in the meantime. Why wouldn't anyone want to have theos0o's unmissable features on top of the newest skype??
[Android Apps and Games] Wam7:
Exactly. The new version has file transfer which is a massive feature! It would be great if this could be updated.
[Android Apps and Games] Lolento:
Yes please.
[Android Apps and Games] danieel:
Well, I had the same with my ConCorde 7020. You're right, mono is still better... hehe... :D

btw, the only version that works fine with that, and not force closing is Skype_2.1.0.46_v11. It has a Telechip 8803, i guess it's a miracle that skype works with this :D

I'm forced to use the older version, because the newer keeps crashing with video calls. On the older i hat to enable

- Force-enable video-calling

- Avoid setFPS

- Use valid preview surface

- Herotab/Dropad FC fix

(and set to mono)

to make it work, but in the 2.5 the last two options are missing :(( Is there a way to include them in the future, or I have to use this older version forever?

If you want to turn off the autostart option in the official Skype app do this; disable skype contacts’ sync through Skype settings.
[Android Apps and Games] klm31019:
One of the disadvantages of the latest skype version is that there is no autostart after reboot anymore. so the idea about full user sync to switch it off is an old solution and not for this version.

I'm missing now this autostart option. my sgs2 is having the autoreboot bug, so everytime my skype is switched off. If theo can at least makw a version were people can make the choice for auto on during boot, I would be vwry happy. Least important, but also missing now is the option to change the ringtone.
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
Yes, I think skype no longer starts after boot.

Can't "Tasker" or some other app fix this?

-------------------------------

Merry Christmas everyone!

Have a nice time these days :)
[Android Apps and Games] casouzaj:
Well, I installed 'Startup Manager' from Market, and noticed that Skype was already in the startup list, but, yet, didn't start at boot time. I decided to put Skype in the 'Customize' tab as well, anyway, which seems to be processed some time later in the boot process, because it is now starting after boot.

Just my 2 cents...

Merry Christmas, everybody!

Carlos
[Android Apps and Games] kofte:
I just downloaded the new Skype and it still autostarts after reboot. Only after turning off sync does it stop autostarting upon reboot.
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
v13 beta!

So here's a little Christmas present for all my friends here :)

Many options are missing (compared to v11) but that's the best I could do now!

Skype has definitely improved a lot.

It's far more stable and faster. Finally!

My work has become much less needed.

v13 (.apk)

Older builds (based on v2.5.0.108): v12

Older builds (based on v2.1.0.46): v07 / v08 / v09 / v10 / v11

Older builds (based on v2.0.0.47): v01 / v02 / v03 / v04 / v05 / v06
[Android Apps and Games] tbong777:
I have been using Beta 12 for a long time. Been finding the auto update has been leaving bad package messages. So I re-installed the Market version.

What about this custom version is different? How would someone keep it from auto updating with the rest of my apks? Read through the thread and so far it seems the major difference is being able to use both cameras which is nice.''
[Android Apps and Games] theos0o:
I don't know any easy solution for this.

Nothing major though.

No, you can use both cameras in Market version too.

My version's got some more options available, like sound options, the ability to use camera flash while in video-call, etc.
[Android Apps and Games] blue_algae:
Thank you so much man for the update! I hope sometime in the future you can release a full v13. :) Also, by any chance, will you be releasing a tutorial or even the code on how you did this?

Thanks again as always!:)
