We have already covered the post about Skype launch of Video calling application for Android devices. Skype official application works on Samsung Google Nexus S, HTC Desire S, Sony Ericsson Xperia neo, Sony Ericsson Xperia pro but today we will discuss about how to make Skype application work on Samsung Galaxy series and other android devices. Read on for details.

You need to follow below steps to use Skype Video calling -

Uninstall any installed version of Skype from your phone.

Download Patched version of Skype from XDA-Developer forum

Install the application on your Android Device

That`s it... You will be able to make Skype to Skype Video calls on your Android phone using your front or rear camera.

We have tried this on Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 and it works without any issue.

Please note that you don`t need a rooted device to install this patch.

Skype error on Galaxy Ace

Why still error and I cant make a video call using back camera of Galaxy Ace?

Can anyone help on this patch..

Thank you..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] dianpadi:
personally, I am not comfortable with using back camera for video call :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Prawesome:
I would better use my phone to do a proper voice call,than having to look at the camera and talk at it

I have found the thread:

Skype support Video Calling from xda-developers thread

The dialandroid did not mention the thread from xda-developers forum, is that above thread refers to?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] panpjp:
Yes, but what do we use that for? Sneaking into the toilet and spreading porn videos? Getting killed by capturing video in a big debate? Skype is for CHATTING ,INTERNATIONAL COMMUNICATION AND BUSINESS COMMUNICATION. NO PORNS AND POLITICS.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Will Galaxy Nexus come with SIM Toolkit? On Galaxy S it was a huge problem that even Gingerbread update did not have SIM Toolkit. This however is a must-have application when using certain pre-paid cards, bank authentications or identification.

Does anyone know if it has it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
So no one knows? Don't people use SIM cards with added functionality?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chandlerweb:
SIM Toolkit is just another way of the carrier pushing pointless services my way e.g. horoscopes, weather etc all at a cost and not as good as apps you can get in the market. This is my experience in the UK anyway, perhaps its different elsewhere.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sweerts:
In The Netherlands Sim toolkit is obsolete. The services it was used for, are now offered by Google and others. Sim toolkit uses a lot of (internet)data however and that is one of the reasons why many SGS-owners rooted their device, so they could use Titanium Backup to get rid of the Sim toolkit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Perhaps I should enlighten what SIM Toolkit is used for in certain parts of Europe, especially Finland and Estonia. In Finland your pre-paid cards have SIM Toolkit related services, such as checking for balance and data usage without additional costs.

But in Estonia SIM cards can be used effectively as an identification device. That is, your mobile phone can double as your identification that is usable country-wide. You can authorize bank transfers, even do all bank-related activities right through your phone without having to fiddle with websites. It can be used to sign digital documents and authorize yourself for e-voting (Estonia was the first country in the world to effectively introduce internet-based voting for local government). All this uses a special SIM-card for that exact purpose.

SIM Toolkit is very important for those reasons. Just because some carriers blatantly misuse it does not mean it isn't important.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FISKER_Q:
I'd rather get rid of the SIM completely, unfortunately it only seems Apple is interested in it at the moment, in their own patent pending insanely closed method, and even that is just a hack.

Don't really see the SIM as an important component in the features you're talking about, and especially something like checking your datausage could easily be done using web API's, like Three has done here in Denmark.

It doesn't even have to cost data, though i'm not sure whether or not it does, they simply have to allow traffic to and from that server freely.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Sure I would love a SIM-free future, but I would also love ID card and password-free future and so on. In fact, I would love username-password free future.

But reality today is that SIM Toolkit is useful part of infrastructure in many countries, there were a lot of complaints about it being missing from Nexus S, as many use SIM Toolkit for bank services.

This is why I'm wondering if Galaxy Nexus still has SIM Toolkit. I simply would be unable to use these services otherwise. It's 2011, I should not have to use a desktop computer or mobile browser to do bank transfers and so on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ghost010:
no there will not and there will never be a sim toolkit on a nexus device.

i actually dont know any country's that do use a simtoolkit.

cheking your data usage?

App

bank services.?

App

App

App

App.

no need for a sim toolkit.

and seeing as NFC might be the future.

there even is more reason why sim toolkit is useless.

its indeed 2011.

we shouldn't even be using a sim toolkit.

its a technology thats been laid to rest in allot of country's.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Of course bank services through an app. But app alone is not secure enough. Our bank services run through Android app, but authenticate as an extra layer of security through SIM toolkit so that even if your data is stolen, they cannot access your bank, unless they also clone your SIM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
The SIM just stores your private key. The same effect can be achieved if the phone itself stores your private key. It makes no difference whether it's the SIM or the phone that's used to store the private key, as long as the private key is used in the key exchange to derive a shared key to encrypt the communications between your device and the bank, the same effect is achieved.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ghost010:
i dont know about your bank,but i have to certify my card and pin trug some sort of special card reader.and than note that code onto my phone.and make a pin code to access my bank account.

there is no way anywhere in that process that anyone can steal that data. unless i give the pin away.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Well, in Estonia we have implemented country wide ID Cards. That is, something what UK tried and failed to implement, it works here and is a great success. Our ID cards double as passports and in fact we do not need to carry passports when traveling within EU.

These same ID cards are part of a wider infrastructure. We can sign documents with these ID cards digitally (just as valid as a written signature, for example). These ID cards carry chips that are specially encrypted for that purpose and carry public and private keys for communicating with various online services. Other than digital document signatures (for any kind of document), we also use our ID card to vote on the internet without having to go to voting offices or log into various government services and view/edit private data related to our citizen status.

We can also use these ID cards to log-in to all banks in Estonia. It is more secure than private password codes that are on a separate sheet of paper and is more convenient to the end user. When authenticating it always asks for a separate PIN code, just like with any other card of that type. These ID card chips are nearly impossible to clone, just like SIM cards.

As a result there's an option for Estonians to also make their SIM card in their phone double as identification device. Our bank applications require this on phones, when logging in it sends encrypted information to the phone that can only be unencrypted with information from the SIM card. If successful, it allows you to log in and do bank transfers. This is far more secure than any regular password-sheet methods. It works through your network and has methods to protect from middle-man attacks as well.

However, that relies on SIM Toolkit and would not be possible without it. Also note that regular SIM cards cannot be upgraded to work like that. Government issues new type of SIM cards for that purpose.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
I know what you mean. At least one bank over here implemented login using something called BankID on SIM which required new sim cards and SIM Toolkit. It used service SMS in the background though and was recently deprecated for a BankID app that starts up in the background and handles the encrypting and decrypting personally issued certs.

I agree that SIM Toolkit should be included regardless because it's very small and doesn't show up at all in the app drawer unless your SIM includes something that needs it. The layout and icon is very outdated though but you usually never have to interact directly with it like that. The messages it pops up look fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Yeah, exactly.

My main point is that it's used in many countries and is especially relevant here in Estonia. Just because some mobile service companies misuse it is no grounds for removing it. It's like removing e-mail notifications just because you're unable to use spam lists.

I just wonder if Galaxy Nexus has it or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
Take a look at *THIS* thread. I dont know if its of any value as I havent read through the thread but it seems to be something on how to put it on your phone and I very much doubt the Galaxy Nedxus will come with it preinstalled.

Mark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ghost010:
we also have ID cards here. with an NFC chip(i can scan my ID card to my phone)

but we dont use that system. only for criminal identifying.

though there might be the solution.

instead of sim toolkit.

youd have to scan your ID card to log in(NFC)

and seeing as you do need your ID card everywhere(by law)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
According to this it does have it, but that phone seems to have some other abnormalities from the thread here http://91.151.218.11/showthread.php?t=18331065&page=51

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Seems to be a dev-build. Those usually include it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Alright, Galaxy Nexus DOES have SIM Toolkit, I have the phone and it is listed under all Apps, but not in app drawer. Some of its functionality also seems to be working.

But does anyone know how to make it visible in app drawer? Not sure I need it for all things, but still.

Anyways, glad it is there!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] clefster:
I have a UK sim-free Galaxy Nexus and the SIM Tool Kit does appear in the app drawer for me with a Telstra SIM. It works from what I can see but I never really use it and all it provides is a mobile news service (pocket news from BigPond)

From my experience with my S2 also, the app only shows in the drawer when a SIM card is in the phone that actually has something to be used with the Tool Kit. When I used another SIM card once it didn't show up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Well, on my Desire it showed up on this SIM, but on this one it does not. Functionality is there though :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
I am still unable to make SIM Toolkit actually show up as part of my app's. It doesn't work with my SIM that doubles as ID card, since phone attempts to launch SIM Toolkit, but it is not actually launched. Does anyone know what else I could try?

Also, here's an article about the usefulness of SIM Toolkit in some parts of the world.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dragonii:
Also, the fact of having the SIM Toolkit installed AND functional is that it opens the phone to dual sim adapters.

With my Samsung Galaxy S, I needed the STK in order to change from one SIM card to the other. Once I installed a custom ROM on the phone (MIUI) that didn't support STK, I was unable to switch SIMs. Result: 2 phones to carry since I prefer MIUI.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wessonster:
I can confirm that the Galaxy Nexus has the Sim Toolkit preinstalled. It shows up automatically in the application drawer once the Sim card is inserted.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fred_up:
I know that Orange's 'Signal Boost' app (which allows to to connect to via the WiFi if the phone signal is weak) is available for the HTC Wildfire S, but is it possible on the Wildfire?

I did of course did do a search (on here and also the web)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fred_up:
Anyone know if it is possible to do?

Would it be just getting the files from a different phone or is it a hardware issue?
[HTC Wildfire S] wiseminosse:
I have written a small procedure to get temporary root on HTC Wildfire S with S-ON (posting it I've noticed the argument has already been treated, even if in another way).

The procedure works in a temporary way, until next restart.

Superuser permissions do work only with applications that accept su binary located in /sbin and NOT in standard directories /system/bin or /system/xbin, (not writeable on this phone due to S-ON lock). I have tested the patch with Titanium Backup and Proxydroid, and they both work fine.

The procedure uses Revolutionary - zergRush binary to get root and then installs su binary in /sbin directory for future uses. Unfortunately /sbin folder is regenerated at every boot and this is the reason why this root is only temporary.

As usual, you apply the patch at your own risk (but considering that we’re not going to flash anything, I suppose the worst case could be a terminal crash).

Ok, let’s go straight to the steps to follow:

1.	we’re assuming you have already downloaded and installed HTC drivers

2.	download and install superuser from market (even if you have not yet rooted your phone). run it and try to update su binary in its settings page (it will fail but nevermind)

3.	enable settings->applications->development->usb debugging

4.	download and unpack the temproot.zip attachment in a pc folder

5.	close HTC Sync from PC system tray

6.	connect wildfire s to usb port

7.	choose HTC sync connection mode

8.	open dos prompt and go to the folder chosen at step 4

9.	run temproot.bat and you're done

steps from 5 to 9 must be repeated at every boot to achieve root grant.

Note 1: if after having got root you can't see the sd card, reactivate it on settings->sd card and phone storage->Mount SD card

Note 2: after phone reboot do not try to open a shell (with adb shell) before running temproot batch, otherwise zergRush won't work

Hello

I try it on my S ON phone

So the first time, I've passed the steps and my phone was rooted

But I have restarted mly phone

So i don't have the root privileges...

So I try to launch temproot.bat but i have the same message :

I saw my scdard was not detected too when I had privileges roots.

Can someone post the video how to get temporary root on this tutorial,because I

Still dont understand step by step..plzzzzz,im crazy to root my phone.....LOL...:D
[HTC Wildfire S] wiseminosse:
try executing commands manually

0) connect phone to pc

1) open task manager and kill any htc sync process

2) open command prompt and add "adb usb"

3) then edit temproot.bat and execute each command manually. relevant command are "adb shell ...". some commands are already included to remove scripts from previous executions (adb shell rm ...)

Okay thnks,but i still dont understand what is the meaning" steps from 4 to 7 must be repeated at every boot to achieve root grant"?

:confused:

I think what the OP meant was to do these steps on restart:

5.	close HTC Sync from PC system tray

6.	connect wildfire s to usb port

7.	choose HTC sync connection mode

8.	open dos prompt and go to the folder chosen at step 4

9.	run temproot.bat and you're done

It works for me but with slight modifications.

After step 6, I have do disconnect the cable. Connect the cable again in HTC Sync mode. I also modified the batch file. "sleepsometime 10" was too early. I changed it to "sleepsometime 100". It gives me enough time to disconnect the cable and reconnect again.

Thanx again.
