Skype Video Calling for Epic Live

[golden_35]

Same thing with mine also. When I awenser a video call it force closes.

I have heard issues when running 2.2. Try upgrading to the new i3 2.3 Anonymous Rom.

When I'm on 2.2 it does the force close. I'm currently on bonsai B13 and have no issues with skype. I guess the only issue is that if I'm not on a fast 3g connection calling out is very slow and video sucks, but on a faster connection it works great. It definitely needs 2.3 installed I'm sure.

Force close here too.

Yeah, force close here on SRF 1.1.0. Its not worth flashing stock GB for me... I'll wait till it officially drops and we see the sweet custom roms again. Im not taking back all the bloatware just for skype video. ;-)

Thanks for releasing this tho... Nice to know it's here when GB drops!

I'm running it on Bonsai without any FC's. The only issue I have is the video call is not green and won't let me make it. Also, it flips horizontal and stays that way.

UPDATE: I didn't want to initially but because of Skype I updated to the Gingerbread version of the Bonsai. Oh, I'm glad I did! Everything works perfect including the Skype. The videos are really sharp on 4G. It's fine with 3G trial too. The downside with this OS is that some of the apps are not compatible yet and are not showing on the market yet.

Am I missing something? I have the updated Skype on my Epic 4G, but it doesn't list it in the list of supported handsets for video? Also, I don't see anything under options or via the menu to initiate a video call.

Thank you for your help.

Are you talking about the Market version? If so, I don't think there's a Video Call on that one.

How are you guys getting Skype to stay off? The damn thing keeps re-signing in, uninstalled for now. Used to use the Stop Skype app but even that now is not stopping it from signing back on. Maybe it's not a big deal but it seems to drain the battery a little faster than normal.

Maybe you can uncheck the Automatically sign in option?
