video addon fc's when connecting video chat with pc over wifi. havent tried on 3/4 G

EDIT: Ahhh i didn't read. seems to be a common problem. i hope we can get this fixed
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] rossi772:
Again, if you get FC, could you please mail me the stack traces, the versions of im, imvido, the os verison of your phone and the model of your phone?

I might know somebody at Yahoo I could forward that to and get some fixes in future versions.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fnyvny:
HI, can you send us just yahoo messenger the .apk.

I suspect the yahoo_im.apk never been updated. My version still 1.1.0.3677

mean while I have 2 Yahoo_imvideo.apk and Yahoo_imvideo_4002.apk

I list down my .apk:

1. Original from first post from this forum (Yahoo_im.apk version 1.1.0.3677) 1.47MB

2. Original from first post from this forum (Yahoo_imvideo.apk) 5.33MB

3. Downloaded update (Yahoo_imvideo_4002.apk) 6.64MB

To resolve this issue, we need to list down .apk we had in our phone.

If you installed the application you doesn't have .apk you can use ASTRO to extract about .apk back to phone/card memory.

Please help us and send to us!

1. Original from first post from this forum (Yahoo_im.apk version 1.1.0.3677) 1.47MB

2. Downloaded update (Yahoo_imvideo_4002.apk) 6.64MB

After the update the video call works OK, but still no FFC option. I have a SGS.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fnyvny:
Are you able to make it work?

I'm also using Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000, it seem what we don't have is yahoo_im.apk version 1.1.0.3884

Hi Guys,

I have downloaded both files from the first post but still keep getting error "Incompatible video chat version with messenger version" , how do I solve it please?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ImmaMeeh:
New to this ... where do i install the two files i downloaded at on my phone ? and do i have to use sometime of launcher like launcherpro etc?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] NightSprinter:
First post to XDA, but damn did it work nicely. Did a video call to a friend in Tampa (who has an iPhone4 and Yahoo IM), and it worked rather well. There was some lag on the call (image from his phone was choppy), but voice was fine.

I want the new MyTouch.. and maybe save up for an out-of-contract Incredible-HD.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jeffsanace:
You are right, However it only works for 1 call. You would have to continue to do that each time you use it. Which is a pain in the ass! We just need it to not look for an update. I've been looking at it, but don't see anything in the files that tells it to look for an update. It's probably there somewhere, anyone else able to find it? Loved this app for the short time I was able to use it, and would love to get it back.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dxtyle:
it works for as long as u dont sing off, which in my case i dont do so often so thats not an issue for me
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jeffsanace:
Actually, I figured out that if you hit the home button when the update screen comes up and go back into the app, it will sign you in automatically. And you can sign out every time. Tried it about 15 times to be sure it worked.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mingo2120:
Well i go to figure out something....when you open your yahoo messenger and tells you to update yahoo video press the home

Button...then re-open yahoo messenger and it downloads your contact...eorks perfect!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] topcat36:
I have no problem using it. Sound/video is perfect. I only have the problem I can't use the front camera to chat. If I could swap the cam to the front one would be a blast. I chat from my SGS to PC.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Ceger:
The real question is how you got Yahoo Messenger version 1.1.0.3884? We all have the older version and item being updated is just the video apk.

Help installing these files from Yahoo

I have an Evo, and I downloaded those 2 yahoo files from off this site, but 4 some reason, it would not install them. When u use and download the astro file from the market, what does it exactly do?:confused: The Android market now has the program to use, but it only works for the MyTouch 4G phone..:(
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] laditoasty:
Its not working

I followed it step by step both way and its not working help
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] freakyscorp36:
How was you able to download the 2 files from this site, and get it to install? It downloaded to my phone, but was not able to install it. Iono whats going on....
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Ceger:
After you download the files, just run them using a file explorer app such as Root Explorer or any of the dozens that exist.

Run the IM apk first, then the video addition apk. Make sure that when you downloaded them, they have an apk extension. Some programs will save the file with a zip extension or something else.

So you don't have to do the uninstall/reinstall trick anymore to use the video feature just press the home bottom???
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mskpop:
Yea just install the original files then when it says u need to update just press home and then press on yahoo messenger again
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fnyvny:
Doesn't work! What ever i try couple method! Need version 1.1.0.3884 perhaps?!???

This method doesn't work with my SGS!

By pressing home button and go back again to Yahoo still popup INSTALL or EXIT!

When choose install it direct me to choose either using Android Market or Internet to install.

If I choose Internet it open browser to locate:

"http://market.android.com/search?q=pname:com.yahoo.mobile.client.android.imvideo"

If I choose Android Market it will search market with key word:

"pname:com.yahoo.mobile.client.android.imvideo"

If I choose EXIT app will close and open again still asking INSTALL or EXIT

How i'm gonna fix this?!?

when the pop up appeared i click install and it brought me to android market where i was able to install the video add on. now i dont get the pop up anymore. :) im on version 1.1.0.3677. video button is there. but my dell streak doesnt support the front camera yet.

edit: no need for the home button trick anymore
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] N8ter:
Does this allow you to stream from the rear cam on phones that don't have a front facing camera, like the Vibrant?

I'm failing to see the point in these apps when they don't allow you to stream from the back cam on those phones. It would be useful for showing people things if you could. That's the only reason I'd even use it, TBH, instead of just taking pictures.

Doesn't work on my evo. . Still freezes when I try a video call. I uninstalled everything and reinstalled the new versions here but no luck. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dahauss:
Got it to work.. SORT OF

Well, I got it to work... not correctly... I use the latest YM from this thread and the ORIG VOICE ADD-ON. I still get the error when starting the program about the video plugin not compat. but this time there is an EXIT button. I press that and it loads up YM and then I can make video calls and it doesnt freeze.

BUT using the latest IM and Video add-on from here gets rid of the error message but freezes when I make a video call on the EVO. I guess I have to stick with what I did and the error work around...

any ideas??

Just discovered another issue.. with the older version of YM, I could force quit the app .. with the latest version no matter what I do it comes back and it seems to use the battery up FAST..

My phone was charged around 4PM and by 9pm (now) its at 65% and the phone was off and I have SETCPU set to 384/384 for screen off.. something is up..
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] johnnytoye:
I attempted to install this on my evo 4g. Uninstalled the Yahoo app I had on the phone prior to installing the software. Downloaded both files, installed the Im file first and then the video voice file.

When I started the app, I got a pop up that the two files were not capatible and directed me to either close or update in the Market. I clicked on the update button and it took me to the market to install an updated video/voice file. After the install, when I start Yahoo messenger, all that come up is the old app with no video function at all.

Uninstalled a few times and tried it again and again with the same results.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

John

Is the lack of Mac compatibility a universal problem for all Yahoo messenger users? That is, can the fully supported MyTouch 4G user video chat with a Mac running messenger? Or can no mobile device get through?

Not working in mytouch 3G slide (Compatibility issues)

Video plugin Error - "Application installation failed"

Yahoo Mail Error - "The version of Yahoo messenger needs to be updgraded and not compatible with Yahoo mail to run successfully"

Uninstalled Yahoo messenger version downloaded from XDA forum, rebooted the phone and Installed Yahoo messenger version from XDA again. Video Plugin from XDA installed successfully this time.

When I started Yahoo messenger - "Force message" Video Plugin installed needs to be updated and not compatible w/ current version of Yahoo messenger. The upgrade from market on video plugin is again unsuccessful.

Yahoo Mail forces an upgrade of Messenger again.

Upgraded the Yahoo messenger through market (From XDA version to Official latest version). Now Yahoo Mail works okay, Able to login messenger also. But keep getting a pop up message as "Sorry!" - The application Voice and Video addon for Yahoo! Messenger (process com.yahoo.mobile.client.android.imvideo) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. (Tried Force close several times, rebooted and again force closed several times, but still same "Sorry!" popup. :confused:
