MDA Camera problem - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development

Hello,
I recently updated my T-Mobile MDA III to WM6 and everything worked fine, until I recently noticed that I can use the camera only with the integrated application, while any other cam software doesn't work. Do you know any solutions for this problem?
Thanks in advance,

Ye, my bro has the same problem... he is using XDA IIs

What do you mean by you can "use camera only with the integrated application"??? I really dont understand....

I mean the camera works with the software that was installed when I bought the pda, however i doesn't work with any other cam software I install. The software that was installed when I bought it has no name actually it has a cam icon and says camera. After I updated to WM6 it has again that app and the camera works only whit it.

yeah, that seems to be a problem on the wm6 upgrades. i think the camera app has been changed(the codings, maybe), that's why any other app that wants to use the camera cant use it coz it is different.

Same Problem After Upgrading to WM6.1 (27/2/08)
I've got the same problem only in condition that i can use it for first video recording. After first successful attempt, there's no more working camera for both pic shot or vid record.

Can the camera be upgraded?

Is the camera of the XDAII fixed to its current capability? Can it be replaced or upgraded - through hardware or software upgrade so that it becomes a 2Megapixel camera?
Thanks in advance.
it could be upgraded if you could find a cam with the same connectors
and that dident take up more space then the old one
and it would require working drivers and a new cam application to work
basicly it would most likely be troublesome if possible and it could cost more then buying a new pda with a better cam

Problems loading to storage card
I have uninstalled v2.1 & tried to re-install this version. Keep getting an error that it will not install & to try another location (ie main memory).
Tried a soft re-set. Still no joy.
Anyone else managed to install on a memory card?
I have it on the memory card as it is around 5.5MB's

Have the same problem...
Tried to install to memory card and main memory and always the same " try another location "
Update: removed all registry keys from previous skype version, soft reset, and then installed without problems.
Any news of Skype using the TYTN front Cam?
Have used the new version 2.2 today and it's nice but don't think it works with webcam yet.
Has anyone heard if Skye will produce a version that enables the front cam on tytn for video calls?

Hello,
Did you also get that message :"could not start Skype" then "couldn't find all the necessary files to start Skype. Please try to install Skype again. Skype will now quit."
If yes how did you remove all registry keys from previous Skype version ?
If it's not the case, anyone has any idea where the problem comes from ? The skype version is 2.2.00.20 (might be that there are some parts missing in it ?)

How is the lag time on GPRS or EDGE networks? Is it worth installing if you're rarely around a wifi point?
I installed it and it worked fine. Was amazed as the original needed a 300mhz processor and ofc ours only have 200.
Went straight on, and works identical to Skype on my computer.
Just need to convince work to buy a wireless network and I will be laughing
The version is 2.2.0.20 and I just installed it off the skype website.
It was working fine for me before over GPRS now it won't connect for some reason.
It works for me!
I've installed "lowCPU" version on my Qtek 9100 SD card.
It starts fine, it works fine.
Seems to be much faster and/or better custommized then non "lowCPU" 2.1 version.
Certainly feels a little more developed than my previous version of Skype. Call quality seems to have increased. I like the Skype Today plugin also.
aww... if theres any kind of upgrade for lowCPU ppc's for VoIP programs like X-lite so i can use my VoIPstunt account...
Cool! works on my wizard.
How can I get it to route the sound through my earpiece, or my bluetooth headset, instead of going to the speakerphone? It echos badly on speakerphone, and everyone else can hear my conversations.

yeah, i really dont like the speakerfone stuff...
Speakerphone???
Hi to all,
it works very well on echo123, since there are no echo cancellation issues, however in the real world the external loudspeaker=echo is simply a disaster...any suggestions on the use of the internal loudspeaker as in a normal telephone?

they are still working on fixing that, as of now that version only works with the external speaker.
Hi,
I've just installed this skype on my Qtek 9100, all seems to work great but I cant hear anyone.
They can hear me fine but I hear nothing.
Any ideas as to what I could be doing wrong?
how much does it tax the CPU?
I noticed they have different versions of the same beta for different models.
The Hermes and the Universal are redirected to this page (High BETA)
http://www.skype.com/download/skype/mobile/downloading_high_beta.html
while the Wizard is directed to this page (Low BETA)
http://www.skype.com/download/skype/mobile/downloading_low_beta.html
Both bpages display the same version numbers and release dates. Infact unless you look at the URL you can't even tell it's a different file.
I tried downloading both. The Low CPU version is only 4.50 MB and teh High CPU version is 4.85 MB.
I keep wondering now if there is anything missing in the Low CPU version.
Can anybody shed some light on this???

No videocalling in Windows Mobile 6.0?

Hey, am I right when I say that there is no video calling (3G) included? The videocall hardware button (the one with that phone hook and eye) doesn't do anything and on the onscreen phone keypad there's no such button anymore....
Ok, so what I read here and there is that Crossbow doesn't support the video call drivers...
When will these drivers be available? Will this just be drivers (CAB) or more likely an entire new ROM?
3G works fine (data/normal calls) but there is no driver to interface the camera in the front with the phone, so no video calling atm
That totally sucks ofcourse...!
Well, seems that we have to be patient.
Having Crossbow running for a few hours, tried everything and must say that I fell in love with it. Videocalling is the only problem I encountered so far.
Do you think we have to wait a long time for that to be supported and will this mean just a tiny CAB-file driver or a complete new ROM? Just installed everything and that's so much work.... Lazy me.
both if i can

Video Suport when making VOIP calls?

Hi people,
Does anyone know if there is any software out there that would allow us to make VOIP calls and use the front camera of the Atom Life? I just purchased the Life after over 2 years of using my trusty original Atom........I had hoped to be able to use the front camera for SKYPE type calls but it does not seem possible......also must say how crap the 64mb for RAM is, My originasl Atom was great in cpmparison to the Life which seems to leak RAM at every orifice.....
Thanx for any pointers in the VVOIP front.
I managed to find a download from www.octro.com but it is in the Beta phase and the front camera does not work yet. but worth a play if you want this functionality. Also you can try www.imichat.com but that is not to support PPC only Symbian so far but the application looks better than Octro.
