face time - Xoom General

Ok how, were, and what do i need to use face time on this thing??

lol facetime is "iFad" not Xoom lol

awwww then no real use for front facing cam other than use it as a mirror lol.

You can only use Google talk to video chat. Only to other xooms or computers.

You can also use Skype and Tango and many other apps... google is the best way to find more apps

You can also use fring, oovoo, tango, and yahoo video

Face time is advertised all over that it is for Apple, that is why I was surprised that someone would think it was for Android.

Yep. Works great on my Evo and xoom

FaceTime is a joke.
Just use Tango (etc.). Cross platform for iOS/Android on 3G and WiFi.

I call face time " face f*&# "

where did you get the .apk for Oovoo? I've used it for years and always found it better than Skype but couldn't find it for the Xoom. All my family uses Oovoo so I would love to be able to chat with them on the go with this thing.

Did I miss something? Can we use Skype for video chat on the Xoom?

Fring crashes on the Xoom... too bad.

The fact that google does not include a more obvious video chat is ridiculous.

got a email from sprint about the new Qik

and thought i should share
I'll copy and paste everything cause im lazy
Cool New App
You probably heard the big news, but Qik was acquired by Skype earlier this year. And we’ve been working hard to release our latest rev, adding some great new features. Now you should be able to enjoy live video chat with everyone you know while you’re on the go—even your friends who use iPhones. Yep. That’s right. The new & improved version of Qik Video by Sprint* enables Sprint EVO users to video chat live with anyone who uses an iPhone or Android over 3G, 4G* and WiFi. Plus, you can still instantly record and share videos with your Facebook friends, Twitter followers, on YouTube and more.
*If you have anything other than Qik Video by Sprint, including multiple apps, delete it/them.
**iOS devices do not currently utilize a 4G network.
Save Video & Update Now!
Qik! Follow these steps so you can see what (and who) you're missing!
Save your videos!
Check to see what version of Qik you've got.
IMPORTANT: If you have Qik Video Connect-or anything other than Qik Video by Sprint, even multiple apps-hit DELETE! (It's the ONLY way you'll be able to enjoy all Qik Video by Sprint has to offer!)
Download Qik Video by Sprint!
Check and update your HTV EVO software, too.
Brand New Policies
And because we’re now Skype, we have some new policies in place and our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy have both changed. Effective immediately, the Skype Terms of Use will govern your use of Qik’s software, products and websites and your personal information will be processed in accordance with the Skype Privacy Policy. No action is necessary if you agree with these changes. But if you don’t, you’ll want to review your termination rights in Section 11 of our Terms of Use.
Thank you! We appreciate your support. Keep Qik'king!
LOL @ Qik'king

Yeah that's weird but that app is actually useful though.
Got the same email, but my work area has little 3G coverage and usually roaming. Tried videochat when it first came out and kept dropping off calls. If the coverage was better in my area I'd prolly use this more often.

I agree, despite the name I use tikl all the time. One of the most used / longest used apps on my phone. It great that it works on all android and iphones no matter what the network. The developer is constantly improving it also. Not sure why there is not pay/donate/adfree version.

Skype Video call?

No, none of the current Android tablets work in Skype with video. It is stupidity on Skype's part.

You can use Google talk from tablet to PC. Your tablet already has it, and your wife just needs to install a plugin in her browser to use it straight from her gmail inbox.

Yes actually both of you are right. When Nvidia announced the Tegra chips back in the day, they showed off a hi-def Skype video call on a tablet. Somehow it never made it into our hands as a release version though.
The current android version of Skype supports processors that has the NEON instruction set, which Tegra does not have.
For all who are unaware.... There is an update for Skype just today supporting our a500
That's right, official skype on our tabs!
Skype 2.5 works great!
I installed it works great!

Skype video works for me under 4.010.13_COM_GEN2 (HC 3.1). Any idea if it works under HC 3.2?

Chrome For Android Beta

So basically its the stock 4.0 browser with the chrome skin and no flash and as of yet no chrome plugin support. But try it out anyway.
Its never gonna support flash, just like android post-4.0

Awesome. Thanks for the heads-up! finally something that can compete with dolphin for pad...
I thought it was ICS only?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1485495
I've been using it since yesterday on the CM9 KANG in my P7500. Have to say I'm VERY impressed. Seems faster and more "desktop-ish" than the stock browser. It surely deserves a try!
working fine for me but.....
After fooling around I can't find any way to set the user agent to desktop. Is there a way, a tweak for that yet? That's quite annoying
Its ICS Only!
Well, if anyone here is not using any of the Kang CM9 ports on their GT10.1, then you don't know what you're missing. No reason for anyone to be stuck on 3.2.
No flash, no YouTube desktop site, no good.

The absence of Flash is my only disappointment, but I'm fairly sure that it will be fixed in further versions. For most of my activities I already replaced the stock browser for Chrome.
