Yes.

Get Voodoo Control (or the paid version which is better - LINK)

You will need root. I'd also suggest flashing a ROM like Trigger.

My signature has a guide for rooting/flashing. Take note of the two update.zip files, one is for root only, the other is for flashing a rom.

Ok so when I had stock 1.83 I used the native recovery app to flash the leaked ota of gingerbread. And ever since when I try to go back to it, it'll just sit with the ! And little android dude.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vangelis13:
You should flash Tenfar's new CWM as the old one isn't compatible with 2.3.4. The one in the Rom Manager is incomplete and not recommended for us yet.

This is from my Evo. You will know if its working for you because it will have a camcorder icon beside all u can video chat w. Would you mind looking at your g.talk to confirm u have a camcorder?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Masterface7:
Thats the problem none of my friends have video enabled so i can't just tell right away if it is working.

the interface that i have looks like that though and that is different than the basic one the stock rom came with.

If I tap my name i have the option to 'allow video and voice chats'

I just flashed that too and nothing showed up in the apps directory. Restoring the stock from titanium now.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Masterface7:
Thats strange All I did was this

Rename stock to talk.bak

try root talk 1.3 installer and fail

boot into clockwork and flash zip

reboot and talk was there and working.

one strange thing that happened in the middle after i had gotten rid of the old talk.apk i was still receiving messages and they showed up in my notification bar however clicking on them did nothing since i had no talk app to open.

edit: side note, it is dumb that talk doesn't synchronize across phone and gmail at same time like google voice does. ex: I just sent a message from my phone and it didn't show up in the conversation on gmail desktop.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maghig:
I uninstalled talk (keeping the titanium backup) and then flashed it in clockwork. Nothing appeared after booting. I then restored the back up, browsed on the other thread for a while and decided to try another apk. Uninstalled talk again, flashed the second version, and still nothing. O well. I don't really need it and am fine with waiting.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:

I tried that. Several times. When I adjust the settings in the program, the bar moves, but the brightness never changes. It's one of those little things that can drive you nuts if you are used to the dim keys.

I will give it another try.

As an alternative, is there something I can edit somewhere to make the change permanent?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FastJoe78:
Might is not working either. I tried to fix permissions but it did not work...are you sure yours is actually staying to what you set it to and you are on 2.3.3 from the LG Leak on 7/21????

Guess it is just me and FastJoe with this issue.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] ironstorm:
Hi Folks,

As some of you may know the AT&T Atrix 4G just got a Gingerbread build yesterday, that build was 2.3.4. Some of you may also know that the Atrix is powered by the same Tegra 2 chipset that drives the G2x.

Well as it turns out, it's very easy to get GTalk w/ Video support working on the G2x using CM7 and that update (Don't thank f-in LG, thank Motorola!!!)... Here are the steps (on OSX, adapt as needed):

Proceed to Step 2 of http://www.motorola.com/Support/US-EN/Atrix Upgrade/Atrix-Gingerbread-Update and Download the 161MB zip file

unzip -j ~/Downloads/Blur_Version.4.5.91.MB860.ATT.en.US.zip *alk*

Archive: /Users/.../Downloads/Blur_Version.4.5.91.MB860.ATT.en.US.zip
signed by Moto-SignApk
inflating: Talk2.apk
inflating: libtalk_jni.so

Follow the steps from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056793

#mount the /system partition as writeable
adb remount
#backup the old Talk app
adb shell mv /system/app/Talk.apk /system/app/Talk.apk1
#uninstall the old gtalk, I think it clears the related cached bytecode too.
adb uninstall com.google.android.talk
#copy the two new files
adb push libtalk_jni.so /system/lib/
adb push Talk2.apk /system/app

Now for the bugs:

- G2x FFC thumbnail is upside down

- Confirmed: Phone can see video from other side, but other side can not see video from the phone. This has been confirmed G2x -> Nexus S and G2x -> OSX Chrome w/ GTalk plug-in.

Update 2011-07-27: bongostl repacked it into a flashable install (gapps-gb-20110613withtalk-signed.zip) available @ http://www.multiupload.com/WF29XUSINW

Update 2011-08-11: Word is one needs CM nightly #98 or higher if your thumbnail picture is upside down

Cheers,

This might be a dumb question, and I'm sure someone will let me know if it is. I flashed this GAPPS and everything is fine. When I go to open Talk, I can't find where I would find the preview so I can see if the FFC is working. It installed Talk 1.3, is that the correct version? I'm running Trigger 13 w/ new baseband.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] blestsol:
Using Eagles Blood 2.3.5 it shows the other person's video to me but they can't see or hear me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] adampdx:
Well I still wasn't able to get this to work on Trigger. However, I did see that the LG camera MOD is progressing quite nicely for stock 2.3.3, and now supports and includes Talk with FFC support. I flashed back and I'm quite pleased. It's only a matter of time before CM7/AOSP support is available.

Check it out.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] adampdx:
So people actually have gotten this to work? Has any one had this issue of not seeing the camera option with CM7? I tried the above 2.3.3 LG camera app and was able to sort of get video chat to work, but it was more funny than practical.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] andrewhansen86:
Any update?

Any update to this? Ive been waiting for ever to get Google Talk with video chat to work on my G2x. I installed the .zip on my g2x but no go, it technically works but there are sound/video issues/bugs with it. I guess the Atrix and G2x are too different. I even tried installing the new 2.3.5 Gapps but it doesnt have the new talk, it has the old one where when you try to call the screen goes black and then goes back to your contacts list.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] adampdx:
I think we're up a creek until someone figures out how to make this work with 2.3.4 and above. You mentioned the 2.3.5 gapps, is that the 6/13 package?

I understand that it's a problem with the Tegra processor. We're blocked, it seems!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] sstang2006:
I tried it and it works.

http://www.mediafire.com/file/d0orhj0jucrhdzi/gtalkvid-signed.zip

safety procedure:

-wipe cache & dalvik cache

-flash

-fix permission

-restart

-settings/applications/manage applications/ clear data of gtalk

-done

If it lags ( it did at first on mine), use a taskmanager to stop all processes to free some memory, and you are back on business.

Just tried it on XBOARDER's OTA ROM 1.2.2. and it works but with the rear cam, it doesn't work with the front cam. Any fix on that?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] steb0ne:
I did this and got it to work after rebooting (I don't use a task manager), it definitely has memory issues. Trying to end a chat brought up the force close or wait menu. If u happen to switch from portrait to landscape it freezes the camera. And if u start from landscape the camera freezes.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sstang2006:
Because you don't use task manager. Keep believing about that android auto manage memory ram.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] adampdx:
I used this zip and followed directions, including killing background apps and had success. SO exciting seeing my Dad in Chicago. I tried it first without killing the apps, but Gtalk stuttered, we both had robot voices, and then the video closed, but everything seemed kosher after getting rid some stuff. BTW I'm running CM7 nightly 99 with no custom kernel. I'm thinking about the VM heap. It's set to 32 out of the box, would it help if I upped it to 48?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Pecata:
Tried that-it worked the first time and then the camera kept freezing on me for some reason. It's not working really, not for me...I hope Skype includes us soon in the video chat...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] steb0ne:
I have tested several devices with and without tasks managers and really don't need them. I hardly have any apps running on 3 devices Evo3D, G2x, and Galaxy Tab 7"...on the Evo3D (which I use most) it works fine on the stock ROM. As does the Galaxy Tab.

I'd say the G2x doesn't manage memory as well as the other 2. I don't feel killing background tasks is the solution. It more so a work around, that wont solve the camera freezing problem
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bongostl:
it's not a memory issue (and task managers really are useless for 99.99% of the reasons people use them).

I too can get it to work once, and only once.

no clue what the problem is.
