[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daryelv:
It looks like Skype was updated to support more phones and tablets. Anyone try on their gTab yet?

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/09/2...ed-no-supports-the-bionic-droid3-and-tablets/

Mine is unfortunately at home and also running HC. I'll need to flash a Froyo or Ginger rom to test the camera.

I tried VeganTab 7.1 (GB 2.3.5) ... it lets me turn it on and lets me try to have a video call, but I simply get a black/blank screen and no video sent.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ByteWrencher:
I've tried this with the latest Mountain Laurel. I haven't actually had it connect when I called (they weren't online) but my face did show up on the screen... it was rotated 90 degrees clockwise.

Video calling is finaly working great. Further more , I had problem with mic and now it also magicaly working good (not great).
[Acer Iconia A500] :
How did you get video calling to work. I just downloaded it, did a test call to a friend, and no video?!? :confused:
[Acer Iconia A500] zrhodes:
it is not on by default. so from the main page of the app, go to setting and enable video.
[Acer Iconia A500] :
There's no option for video in my settings.
[Acer Iconia A500] eole73:
Same for me here
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Something tells me it doesn't work for 3.2...
[Acer Iconia A500] :
wordering if it doesn't work on HC 3.2?
[Acer Iconia A500] Johnny0906:
Hey maybe it doesnt work on 3.2
[Acer Iconia A500] ZeroAlphawolf:
So they seriously finally released an update, but to a outdated OS since 3.2 is starting to be pushed into the US to Tablets, and has been in most other places of the world as is? Skype is really out to screw themselves arnt they?
[Acer Iconia A500] kekinash:
Mine works and is a US stock 3.2 non rooted OS. I just finished a video conference. :D
[Acer Iconia A500] ZeroAlphawolf:
Alright, on 3.2 Rooted, but the rom that has all the bloatware and everything pretty much intact Skype does not do video calls or show ANY of the video options in the settings.

I reverted back to a backup of 3.1, and the app DOES do video call, and show the video call settings.

I don't know what your doing Kekinash, but you've got a magical tablet.
[Acer Iconia A500] tariche:
I am on 3.2 stock and like previously mentioned, in order to activate video you have to go to settings from first page and check it.
[Acer Iconia A500] ZeroAlphawolf:
Then the problem could exist within the root itself for some reason. Cause i have gone into settings on the first page, and their is -no- option for it when i was on 3.2 rooted. The options stopped at the "Display Technical log" check box.
[Acer Iconia A500] kiwi_mat:
works fine on toobany 2.1b, as said, just enter settings and select the option, and re-login in..

:)
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Sounds like it might be kernel related then. I'm on the RichardTrip one that was with ezTerry's ROM.
[Acer Iconia A500] peejayw:
Am on vanilla 3.2 and video calling is working great. The mic is vastly improved so must be a software issue after all.
[Acer Iconia A500] kekinash:
Seems the problem are some kernels that doesn't have the proper L4V drivers or the configuration necessary for Skype Video.

As I told you I'm on stock 3.2 US Rom and I have available the video options, and it works great.
[Acer Iconia A500] :
As mentioned by myself and one other, we have NO settings for video. Since it's clearly not a HC 3.2 bug, it must be root? That's the only other variable I see staring me in the face, because I'm on a stock rooted 3.2 ROM. :confused:

---------- Post added at 05:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 PM ----------

I'm using the same kernel you are, so that's not it. ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] kekinash:
Try to go to Settings\Applications\Manage Applications\Skype and clear the cache.
[Acer Iconia A500] :
That did nothing either :(
[Acer Iconia A500] margosmark:
This works for me too, with Thor's kernel (Taboonay 2.1b)
[Acer Iconia A500] :
In the Skype settings, I have "general setting" , "notification setting", "instant messages", and "calls" for the headings within the Skype settings. No where in the sub-categories is there a setting for "video". :confused:
[Acer Iconia A500] kekinash:
Ok, I checked the ROM you are using and it has several changes over the stock the most blatant for me is the on that says:

remove both OTA cert and original ca_certs in favor of the cacert by guardianproject

Maybe Skype checks for the proper certificates to allow video? As IT I saw things more bizarre than this. Anyway is a modified ROM, so something is changed or miss from the Acer stock ROM that disables the video option from Skype....
[Acer Iconia A500] Chestanuky:
skype works

I can confirm that todays release of skype does have the vídeo option and it work on my iconia a100
[Acer Iconia A500] :
That very well may be. I'm going to the base rooted 3.2 after I get back in town on Saturday anyway. We'll see if that fares any better. ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] ingrouille:
working but no sound

Works on my stock tablet. Microphone quality is much better. Person I was speaking to reported they could hear me clearly. However, I did get an issue hearing them. They were running on a Xoom and then a Samsung Galaxy phone. I could barely hear them. I'll have to test audio calls to a landline phone later to hear what the mic sound like for that too.

Very pleased about initial mic improvements though as that was my only complaint with this tablet.
[Acer Iconia A500] chike99:
I am running HV 1.2 ROM with HV 3.4 kernel and Skype video works great.
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
I didn't get the automatic update for Skype, but I went to Market and manually updated Skype and now I can see the video settings there, too. Too bad I can't try video calling, though; I don't have any friends :S
[Acer Iconia A500] margosmark:
you could always try it with yourself ... like i did. makikg temp skype names literally thisisatemp1
[Acer Iconia A500] ezterry:
Meh a silly code design in skype was the issue:

Fix on my thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18017326&postcount=143

(The diffrence is how I embeded busybox... really it ought not mater, since all the android apps/libs are untuched and all the expected apps are on path, but skype ignored path when making a call to cat a /proc file rather than read it directly)

The fix just symlinks cat back in the expected location, so no need to muck with the skype binary your market install will work.
[Acer Iconia A500] San Pedro:
Great news, and my mic is also working much better than it was in talk, which is great as I don't have to worry about buying a mic now.
[Acer Iconia A500] zetheroo:
second a500 ... this one running Taboonay 2.1 .... Latest skype ... mic as always horrible. Is there a fix for this?
[Acer Iconia A500] TFordham:
I simply don't get it.....I had Skype a couple of days ago and video worked perfectly. In the meantime I re-flashed the same 3.2 ROM I was using (had some problems that were cured by flashing it again) and now I get no video.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] androidobsessed:
I'm probably going to go pick one of these badboys up right away sunday morning, but has anyone seen anything about reserving one or whether or not it will be available at all locations cuz I'd hate to go and not be able to get it. thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] eep2378:
My local BB is taking preorders on it, but they could not give me a definite answer they'll have it on Sunday. Best bet is to call your local B&M stores on Friday/Saturday to see if they've got a shipment :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mpazevedo:
I reserved one at a local Best Buy mobile in the mall of all things on the 25th. Funny thing the receipt says I can pick it up on the 25th but that's a computer error. The sales rep said they will be there this Sunday.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shadow65781:
It will be available Sunday.

Local att store opens at 9. I will be there at 830.

sent from my Infuse at Tranquility Base.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] pokey9000:
One of our local Costcos says their system has it for sale on Sunday, but they didn't receive any yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iqak:
Best Buy has limited units

I just pre-ordered mine this morning from the store here in Sacramento.

$50 minimum.

Had five or six locked up on his "Online-Order" Shelf.

Scanned one of them for my order.

I'm getting it for the $199 price since I'm OK for an upgrade.

Maybe better if I can provide evidence of a better deal.

I made several calls this morning to the local AT&T stores.

None had any stock, but could order for me.

Parrot was not expecting any until November.

If your in a hurry, then I'd suggest either Best-Buy pre-order or Direct online order.

Good luck everyone and happy Androiding....
[Windows Phone 7 General] the-wrangler:
Apparently finally an end to the crippled Zune experience in Canada it seems..

http://wmpoweruser.com/microsoft-drops-zune-pass-price-in-us-and-expands-it-to-canada/
[Windows Phone 7 General] lbp775:
You're gonna love this as Zune Pass was the main reason I even considered WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] the-wrangler:
agreed. Been waiting for it. I've even got a ZuneHD. Lol im looking forward to the dam artist backgrounds etc on my WP7. My Zune does it and its nice eye candy. I imagine I'll subscribe and try it out. I use my phone for Bluetooth music in my car and at work.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
In addition to that, if you don't have it by that date, the price will be only $9.99 and you won't get any 10 free tracks every month.

Good and Bad.
[Windows Phone 7 General] the-wrangler:
yeah I see that...the free tracks would've been nice but at least the neighbours up north are finally getting it. Long time coming.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Wyn6:
Actually, that's great for people who don't want to spend the extra five, although I do. Considering Spotify, Zune needed a cheaper option. Wonder if they could do a streaming only option for free?
[Windows Phone 7 General] bmazloum:
Great, now I can use my real Windows Live ID, unfortunately I bought a bunch of games on this US based account.

But this problem with messenger integrated to your primary ID is total bullcrap.

My mind is spinning to decide what the hell to do.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
It's a worse deal. They're basically giving you $9.99 to spend however you want every month with the current pricing structure, so you only pay a net $4.99 per month for Zune Pass. With the change, it's a worse deal - through and through.

There's no reason to now pay an extra $5 per month for $10 worth of tracks. Any Chimp can see this.

If you cannot afford that, then you can't afford to have a smartphone with a data plan, either, IMO :P

---------- Post added at 02:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:50 PM ----------

Use one ID and stop tying purchases to one account while trying to use another for this and that. You can always use a different IM application and/or service if you wish to be incognito.

Having this use this account and that using that account can be confusing for users, since apparently the context sensitive search button was removed due to "confusion."
[Windows Phone 7 General] naplesbill:
I just received an email that the same plan will be forced on new users in America as well. No more 10 song downloads for new subscribers. Existing subscribers may keep the $14.99 plan as long as your subscription is maintained.

This change also takes effect on Oct 3rd.
[Windows Phone 7 General] bmazloum:
Yeah, that's the only solution if I want messenger integration. I picked up all the XBL games when they were deals of the week, so that kinda sucks. Achievements will all be gone now too.

It's not confusing, it's more of a thing that pissses me off. The current Live Messenger app is horrible and would rather use the integrated one, along with being organized once and for all.

Yeah, the search button change pissed me off as well. Was so much faster when searching for emails and contacts. Should've made it "hold for 2 seconds to get bing"
[T-Mobile LG G2x] g2xfan:
I was just curious on who has Bluetooth that's built into there car stereo that also perhaps has a built in mic.

Can you provide what model of radio it is and how you like it?

I want to use my phone in the car for listening to music in the car over Bluetooth as well as being able to make and receive calls over Bluetooth.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] babymatteo:
First of all...the stereos don't have mic's...it uses the mic on your phone.

And for car stereo, i use a Sony XNV-770bt...it's awesome.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] g2xfan:
That's actually not true. Jvc has a stereo that has a mic.

It's the JVC KDR-520 CD receiver and KS-BTA100 Bluetooth adapter. The KS-BTA100 Bluetooth adapter has a built in mic. You can find it on Crutchfield's website.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Coco hime:
Currently I'm using Sony MEX-BT2800. Streams audio and calls through car speakers. Has a mic built in the front. I absolutely love it. Costs $160 on Sony's site but you can easily get it from $90~ from eBay refurbished.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] valdezpa09:
my infiniti has one but it kinda sucks cuts out all the bloody time!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] duckjob:
I have a 2011 sonata. The standard stereo system includes a mic in the cabin and full blue tooth support for calls and stereo audio streaming. Both work flawlessly with my G2X, first with stock rom and now with EB 2.2

I have a Kenwood DNX-9980: http://www.kenwoodusa.com/Car_Entertainment/eXcelon/Mobile_Video_n_Navigation/DNX9980HD

It does just about everything but drive the damn car for you. As far as bluetooth goes, it uses Parrot, so it supports A2DP with full track control, etc... Phonebook, voice dial, it reads text messages to you, audio interrupt, etc etc...

Seriously, this deck does EVERYTHING you could ever want. It has more features and a better UI than a BMW iDrive or the new lexus interface.

Main drawback for most people is that it's double din, and clocks in around $2000.

Just here to ask: is it possible to have the Samsung' Smart Dialer on our O1?

Since the resolution are different, it must be resized, right?

I'm asking that because I really like its big numbers :)

Thanks in advance ;)

Maybe I have explained that wrong: I would like to change even only the numeric keypad to have one like this

Just because it'd really better than the stock one of mik's cm7 :)

Even if someone of you know a app with the right skin to apply, it could be a workaround ;)

Title kinda misleading. I always look for new music, and was hoping it gave a bunch of suggestions ^^
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] AyDee:
It's an app featuring the artist "Klyentel" only.

@Klyentel: Does Reverbnation supply free apps for artists?

Do panorama shots work for anybody else?
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:

[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Sometimes it seems to fail, others it works. If it takes more than like 30 secs or so it'll probably fail. I've taken a number of sweet panoramas

Sent from my rooted xt860
[Motorola Droid 3] LaTropa64:
Hmmm... It also seems to say "stitching captures" for about 45 seconds and then just returns to the camera app with no hint of a panorama having been saved anywhere.
[Motorola Droid 3] LaTropa64:
I got it to work by switching the storage location of photos from SD card to Internal.

It seems to work every time on internal storage and not at all on the SD card.
[Motorola Droid 3] LaTropa64:
I take that back.

I decided to move all my pictures and moved everything in the DCIM folder on my sd card to internal storage on the phone and then changed the settings in the camera to use internal storage. Panorama stopped working (it would say "stitching pictures" for 30+ seconds and then nothing would happen).... so I then switched the save location to sd card and it worked!

It seems my phone only likes to take panoramas when I set the camera to save them to a location other than where I take my usual regular single-shot pictures. Weird.

I am running GB .605, it is rooted and everything, I've installed Rom Mgr and CWM from it. When ever I click on boot in recovery, it just hangs at the M. I've tried to use Quickboot and it only shows the droid with triangle. I've used root explorer to delete all the apps in the preinstall folder but no prevail.

[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
I'm finally jumping off the deep end into the world of flashing my Photon for the first time!

1. Which ROM do you recommend and why?

2. Does unlocking the bootloader still kill 4G?

3. Does the CM Recovery have to be manually installed or can the ROM Manager from the Android Market be used?

4. Common problems/issues to be expected?
[Motorola Photon 4G] R2DeeTard:
1. I've tried both Homebase and Alien and they are both good. Homebase has Shabby's kernal, so it will run a little faster and battery life wont be as good as with Alien.

2. Yes

3. ROM manager is still not supporting the Photon, check out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1250697 for step by step instructions on how to do all the flashing and unlocking. These videos helped me out a lot.

4. No problems what so ever, but i'm only speaking for myself.

Enjoy!
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
Thanks for your responses! Once you've flashed a new ROM, I'm assuming you have to flash back to stock to get OTA updates, right?

Which ROM are you currently running?

Which one do you ultimately prefer so far?

What advantages does it give you over running stock?

Does using something like Go Launcher EX on a custom ROM kinda defeat the purpose?
[Motorola Photon 4G] R2DeeTard:
I'm currently running Alien. I like the vanilla gingerbread theme for it but for what i do i cant really tell that much of a difference between this ROM and Homebase. if you want the overclocked cpu, go with homebase. it uses Launcher Pro as an overlay but i'm assuming you can use whichever launcher you prefer. the specs for each rom are listed on their respective thread pages. some advantages are the custom kernel, wifi scan frequency for battery life, no bloatware. Its not that hard to flash ROMs with CWM once you unlock the bootloader and root, so i suggest flashing both, getting used to them, and then seeing which one you like best. i will probably go back to homebase because i like the OC kernel and they have an update that reflects the current software OTA.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
Can you see a noticeable speed increase in with the OC kernel?

Does the battery gain from the wifi scan frequency balance out the battery drain from the OC kernel?

Any problems at all with the Homebase ROM other than losing 4G?
[Motorola Photon 4G] R2DeeTard:
.1 Ghz isn't that big of a difference IMO plus the launcher the ROM uses is pretty fast to begin whith. you may lose probably half an hour of battery life from OCing. its a very good ROM and i havent had any problems with it.
