I've been using Tango but noticed that skype and ooVoo are available in the market now (for our phone). Has anyone tried skype or ooVoo with this phone?
I tired skype if you installed it from market video won't work.
What you have do is using root explore replace a Optmus 3d build prop and restart the phone and then install the skype apk from market then it will work. Next you can replace your original thrill build prop back again.
Could we possibly get someone with an O3D to Upload the Working Skype for us considering we should be able to just DL the one yall have and install it on the phone.

I just read about this app. I can't find it in the market though the article said it should be available. I thought I'd share.

I couldn't find it in the market on my GTab, but found it on my phone. I'll try side loading it tomorrow. Good find. Thanks for sharing.

tried it on the Tab (VegaN ROM) and wouldn't open. Doesn't mean that there's another way to load it. I'll keep trying as i'd love a good vid chat app.
Wouldn't open on my Hero either.
Bump...
I've tried ooVoo as well but it closes as fast as it opens. I find it hard to believe that there is no real, workable video chat option. I've unsuccessfully tried:
ooVoo
Yahoo Messenger w/ Video add on
Qik
Fring
I'm in the middle of talking my in-laws in PA in to getting a gTab but it's less justified w/o the video chat option. Has anyone tried other solutions?
I agree... I haven't found anything that works like Skype does on the computer. We used to use Skype on the Laptops a lot for video chats with family and when I am away from home on work. I was really hoping I could find a decent solution for the tablets, but nothing really works well. I thought Qik might have been the answer, but that doesn't work well either.

Qik works.. I have qik working on mine right now.. used it to chat between my cell and my tablet.
So does Yahoo Messenger w/ Video. I have it running on the TnT Lite 3.0.0 build right now.

Have you tried Tango?
Tango won't install for me on TnT Lite 3.0 or the previous version.
Yahoo Messenger w/ video chat works on mine running Vegan beta 3, but the webcam is sideways.
Ditto, and bump.
Running Vegan Beta 4. I can get Yahoo to work, but my video is sideways. Anyone know of a fix?
AFAIK, there is no fix for the sideways video. Qik and Yahoo runs on my tablet, but the video does not consistently run and connect. I need something that works like skype does on a laptop. Good audio, high quality video and works everytime. I travel for work weekly and spend nights out of the house. When we had the laptop we would use skype every night. Now with the tablets, there is no solution. Kinda sucks to keep a laptop around just for skype use. Oh well... bleeding edge.
Anyone tried Yahoo messenger, android-to-android? Does that have the sideways problem?
Jim
P.S. Installed on stock 3053.
Yes, Yahoo Messenger from G-Tab to G-Tab has the sideways video issue... when it works.
oovoo video chat software
I was able to get this program on vegan 7. Currently doing IMs and VOIP.the video chat is blocked out on the program and in the programs settings. I think with the growing number of gtab users we can figure this out. I am using this right now talking to wife on her PC.I will continue on solution but I'm just a rookie compared to some
Have you tried my ReelPortal software? It's proven to work on the G Tablet:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=908613
It works with Android/PC/Linux/Mac, etc. The interface is a bit clunky. So I'm working on changing that at the moment.
I installed Skype from the market but when I tried to test it with a friend I didn't have a video option...Anyone has this working?
No video option in Skype as of now. Google Talk works with Google website. Or between iOs you can use Fring. Available in market

Hi.
Is it possible to do native video calling on the Samsung Galaxy S (I9000) using only the Wi-Fi connection?
I'm running 2.2.1 at the moment and everytime I try to use the video call function, it's telling me that it requires a 3G connection.
Is it possible to modify this native video calling app in order for it to work with Wi-Fi?
Thanks for answers
Fring app can do this, but its not available now. If I dont remember wrong, in 08.2010, Fring has Skype video calls over 3g and wifi
Check out Tango
install skype it works great.

Not yet but soon.
Anyway there is some third party alternatives (not native i agree but working):
yahoo messenger
Tango
oovoo
yahoo messenger can do it.
Thanks for the suggestions.
So what plethora of unnecessary and suspicious permissions do these suggested 3rd-party apps require?
Works only if you have Android 2.3.4, for Optimus 2x you need Cyanogen Mod 7.
I have packaged as an update.zip, install with cwm download here
Whats a shame, was hoping for 2.2 to work aswell
It installs but it does not work. I am unable to initiate either a video call or audio call. Unable to receive video / audio calls.

Have you tried downloading the regular one from the market yet?? Cause looking at the app for download it supports SGSII and the Evo 3D so it Might support our devices (hopes) I personally havent tried it yet so I don't know for certain.
regular version on market doesn't support skype video only voice
I use the Skype from the market with video calls. Aside from the video from the other person being half screen it seems to work fine.

You will probably need to have Gingerbread to use Skype video calls..
