I installed skype mobile on my titan, and I can't get it to work properly. When I try to make a skype call, everything goes through, it dials the #, the phone i'm calling rings and picks up, but they can't hear me, and I can't hear them. Does anyone have any ideas? Is there something i'm missing?
Thanks,

I've heard an older version of Skype works to an extent.
Do you know what version? Worth a try i guess.
Thanks
I hate to be the bearer of Bad news, but this is my story.
I had a Sprint Mogul (Qwest), I put on the skype Beta version 2.0 which worked and woked well!! but then I went on to verizon, I got a migration to the xv6800 and jumped on it
unfortunately I upgraded the ROM to windows mobile 6.1, and any version of skype from the earliest beta up to 3.8 won't even run the only version that would run is the lates one from the skype website, but just like you, I cannot hear anyone and no one can hear me, I tried everything, scoured every website, Fringe barely worked, but not the way I wanted it to, Skooter worked great but then thats because it actually calls a number that goes through Skype to where ever you want it.. Handy to call abroad, it only uses your minutes from your cell phone plan.
I'm still searching for anything that will work on my phone,, but at the very least, I have a Qwest Mogul that works quite well as a Skype phone so not all is lost.
If anyine knows of a VOIP prgram that can be used by the Mogul with WM 6.1 I would love to hear about it
Thanks
im using skype 2.2.0.20 on a sprint mogul with wm6.1, it works for the most part, although i have to use my BT headset to make calls

Hi. I've tried several versions, but none of them can use the standard mike. BTW, Default, can you post a link to the cab for your working version, please?
The only way I've had some success is using fring, which will let you access the Skype network and use Skypeout credits too, but my problem is it has no softphone numeric pad, so it's useless for calls for automated services which require any menu navigation.
A new alternative came out last week, called Nimbuzz, but it can't connect to Skype on my Mogul.
I'm using dcd 3.3.4 and radio 3.42.50. If any of you get any of these working, please share...

hi,
i can't seem to get it working. people can hear me, but i can't hear them
Anyone got this working?
Thx
it should work, i have not tested it but it should work, the files and registry entryes are taken from a hermes rom for which i am sure that it work and it is the same core and build as ours
i was able to launch the setup earlier... and decided to do it later on..
but when i tried after 2 days ... it just crashed...
did uninstall... softrest... install.. routine few times... and gave up.
I successfully connected to my Hungarian Voip provider (megafone) but no sound at all. Dialing is okay, but I cannot hear it ringing out, cannot hear the other party, they can't hear me. However the connection is there and the connected seconds are charged.
GSM phone, Skype and Fring are working well, only the Ms Voip has problems.
My settings look like this. The 'Dial plan' tab is empty. Is this normal?
Also noted that it didn't terminate the call normally as I pressed the red button, it kept charging on for 15 minutes of talk...
well now i think that something is missing, maybe audio encoders and decoders on which VoIP is dependant, i will look into this and will keep you posted
My tip is also codec-related.
Is it normal that via ActiveSync the voip says No Service? With WiFi it says Available, I think it should also with ActiveSync.
are there any news?
I don't have an issue with VOIP working on my SX66. In fact, I was surprised by how easy it was to get going.
-Chris
You were lucky that your provider uses the same codec as this WM6 build does.
Since I don't use something like Vonage, or Comcast VOIP, I just went out and found a VOIP provider online. VOIPCheap.com works great with this build.
-Chris
Many of us prefer a local VoIP provider though.
VoIP Incoming RTP
Some additional info on the problem with receiving audio. (same is on my phone). I checked which codec this SIP stack negotiates.
Apparently, out of all available, MS VoIP settles either on PCMA or PCMU depending on the other end availability, and refuses other most common ones.
Well, it encodes and sends RTP which I receive on other non wm6 phones and I am sure it receives RTP, and may even decode it, but by the look of it, not a squick is sent to the hardware/speaker.
Cheers

Sorted by installing Voip support from (ftp://xda:[email protected]/WM6VoIP.CAB)
and installing on top of the existing (from voip.cab - can't remember the source).
Although the dialplan tab is still blank (requires ipdialplan.xml, I guess) but the SIP settings are remain intact after this 'patch'.
====
I've just tested the MS voip with 3 different VOIP providers, and I also have the "sound" problem with it.
When I use an other VOIP application (like SJphone) all is working fine, so it must be a codec problem that is missing.
I just looked at VOIPCheap.com website. It's sounds interesting. Never tried VOIP from BA. Can someone tell me what i need to do to use VOIPCheap.com on BA to make VOID calls apart from creating an account with VOIPCheap.com? Thanks guys.
Never Mind. Please ignore my last msg. I think i got the answer on there website in FAqs. I'll create the account and see how good it is.
Anyone have any good/bad feedback for VOIPCheap.com service?
Thanks.
There are a lot of threads for VoIP problems in the forums many issues are solved there, i suggest al of the VoIP users to search and read there. Also i understood that difrend providers use difrend encoding-decoding so thats why it works for some and not for everybody
did someone find a fix for the muted audio issue?
i've read many threads about many voip issues on the other forums available here, but it seems like the small amount of ppl who had this problem was left quite alone..
I'm trying to place calls via my asterisk 1.4 box.
thanks
I was able to get Internet Calling (integrated VoIP) on the mogul working with the Gizmo VoIP service. The big problem is that the volume is so low it is pretty much unusable. I followed all of the guides here on xda and came up with the same issue as everyone else; i could not get internet calling to show up on the today screen and i did not have any of the internet options under the phone settings. What solved it for me was Schap's Setup VoIP tool version .3. This tools gives us the ability to now set the items that us Mogul users do not have available under the phone settings.
In a nut shell:
1) install WM6VoIP.CAB then reboot
2) install SetupVoIP_v0.3.cab (Schap's VoIP tool)
3) open Schap's config tool and set:
a) all of your SIP settings.b) Set outgoing calls using VoIP to Whenever available.c) enable VoIP over 3G.
Now when you go to your phone dialer it should now show the name of your VoIP service at the top rather than your carrier (Sprint PCS in my case). You will have to force your internet to connect first (i use PIE to start my internet connections up, not sure of a better way to do this.) Now you will be able to make and receive VoIP calls. I have verified this by calling another phone and seeing that the caller ID is from my VoIP. I have also been able to stay on a call and browse the web at the same time (not normally possible on sprint). The 1X icon never appears over my Evo icon while on the phone now. Interestingly enough i could not get this to work over WiFi, it would only work on Evdo.
This integrated VoIP is so seamless that it pains me to use another app just because of this volume issue. I have tried:
Skype. Works great, but not with Gizmo.
SJPhone. Works with Gizmo, but is VERY choppy.
GoSip. Works great with Gizmo, but is very big and slows the phone down.
Fring. Works great with Gizmo and the mem usage is great, but has no dial pad and that pretty much makes the app useless.
Wengo. Works great with Gizmo. Mem usage is on the big side, but is manageable. Seems to be the best for me so far.
I have tried many others that either work as dial out only or only work with their makers SIP service.
Any other ideas or thoughts?
Thanks,
JD
You got the mic working using Fring ? I always got one way audio
What version of WM6VoIP.CAB did you use ?
The mic did work for me on fring. However, the instant that i realized that i didn't have a dialpad i removed it. I use VoIP mostly for conference calls and i need to be able to enter in conference room passwords.
How would i be able to tell what version of WM6VoIP.CAB i am using? I cannot find version information anywhere.
JD
You are lucky with the Fring since there is many complaints from Mogul owners that Mic doesn't work
What version did you use ?
When I was searching for the WM6VoIP.CAB there was indication that there is some new version but the link was dead when I tried to download
Can you please post it here?
When i tried Fring it was a few months ago and i don't remember the version number. I do remember using my bluetooth headset for SIP rather than the internal mic and speaker. I just tried the newest version of fring (downloaded last night) and my internal mic and bluetooth headset now do not work for SIP. Interesting.
For WM6VoIP.cab I searched here on XDA and downloaded the first link i found. Here is the one that i used, not sure if there is a newer version? http://218.93.115.138/d900/patch/WM6VoIP.CAB
JD
That's the same I'm using ... I did read some article about this couple weeks ago ( can't find it) where there was reference and non working link to new version of this file.
Did you read this post ? :
http://www.eten-users.eu/lofiversion/index.php/t8854.html
There is reference to switch.cab ( can't find link to download it )
switch.cab
Try this:

I did, it did install ok but it doesn't work
Thanks
well i tried the configuration and everything, but the thing is that when i try to call out it says dialing then it says call ended, like it doesn't even ring. I entered the correct settings and everything.
I did everything and it DOES NOT show on my Today screen, I see the item "Internet Calling" checked in the today screen options. Any ideas?
Telus phone right ?
I if so that's normal with the Telus ROM

No, I have a Sprint Mogul with the "unofficial" leaked GPS rom. Anyone else know how to fix this? I really need this to work, thanks a lot.
It will not show on your today screen. When you go to your dialpad, the name of your VOIP provider should be listed at the top rather than sprint. If it shows that then you should be good to go.
JD
When you make a call, does the sound come through the earpiece or the speakerphone?
How can I have the sound coming from the speaker on the screen side instead of the back speaker?
Thanks!
I'm afraid you can't
I know that there is a tool released that allows skype to work through the earpiece and not the speakerphone on the wizard. I just had a couple of questions related to that before I purchase a wizard.
If you leave the tool running, will you be able to talk through the earpiece on incoming calls?
Does skype perform well on the wizard? Compared to landlines, cell phones?
Will skype work on EDGE?
Can you use a prepaid SIM on an unlocked Wizard?
My goal is to use the unlimited data prepaid plan ($20/mo.) and skype (around $60 a year paid in advance) to have an unlimited data/talk plan on a wizard. Any thoughts, suggestions? Thanks.
I can answer what I know for yah.
Does Skype work well on the Wizard?-Yes, IF you overclock your Wizard to 247MHZ or higher, the stock 200 MHZ simply will not run Skype well enough to use. Overclocking is easy, and is fine if kept under 260MHZ.
Will Skype work on EDGE?-Again yes. The installer and documentation says that WiFi or 3G is required, but that is simply not true. It will take a few moments to load your contacts and connect to the Skype network, but calls will work fine.
Can you use a prepaid SIM in the Wizard?-Yes, you Lokiwiz or the Wizard Service Tool to SIM and CID unlock your Wizard once you buy it.
I cannot comment on the other stuff, but it does indeed work, and works well.
Thanks for the response. You answered most all of the critical questions for me. I know a headset can correct the others, so if all else fails I can just get one of those.
I'm running skype on default clock speed, and it works fine. Little slower, but not much, usable. Not sure how. Rom is the one Zoki made, i think is NBD, or something like that, i both it like that from him and works great
I prefer Fring.com u can use msn, skype, icq, google talk, sip.
If u buy a phone number with skype u can receive calls too
And u have add-ons too, like facebook, fringme chat, gmail notifier, orkut, vtap videos, yandex.mail.
Hope u guys like it!
btw works with almost all phones
Perhaps something for you guy's.

What is Loudtalks?
Loudtalks brings voice back to the internet communications. It's a little application, which allows you to talk to your friends or colleagues instantly with a single touch of a button.

sounds cool to me...time to test
works even on T Mobile ;-)
can this be used in Portugal

This could be used with any device that runs Windows, can connect to the internet, and has a microphone and speaker
sounds tight hope to try
Palringo currently does this as well. Not sure which is better though...
I have installed it and it works good. Doesn't use your minutes when talking. It could be kind of like Mobile to Mobile for WinMo users and can cross carriers. Anyways, does anyone know how to enable a sound/alert when initiating or receiving PTT transmission like the infamous Nextel chirp? I noticed that on the PC version it has a chirp.
yeah that would be great. i need the beep too.
This would be so cool!
Hope you manage to port it without problems,
cheers!

as we all know, the AT&T Atrix has problem with most VOIP softare. Just wondering if the Canadian Bell version is also experiencing the same problem? If not, that means AT&T is doing more than just turning off HSUPA...
I bought a Bell Atrix two days ago and I am DEFINITELY having issue with Skype either thru. WiFi or 3G connection. I am unable to make clear calls and often encountered LOUD STATIC sound on the earpiece.
Please assist...

No can't do at this moment. Need to wait for Motorola to sort this VOIP issue.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Well, I really do hope Motorola will address this issue...
IM+ Talk Skype Calling
Just an update to using the newly purchased IM+ Talk, a web-based Skype calling service. Well, it took me a whopping two-hour to figure out how to make calls and it was super frustrating...I subsequently had to purchase another Skype subscription (unlimited world, in addition to my original unlimited calls to Hong Kong plan) because of the call-back feature IM+ Talk uses.
So how it works is that you enter the CALL BACK number of the device you are calling on, enter the number you want to call, press the CALL button, and then your device will ring. Answer the call and you will then hear your number connecting. I don't know how to clearly explain it but it works on my Atrix thru. 3G connection

im using an att atrix on Fido in canada and i can use skype just fine. i think its att network that is blocking this somehow not the atrix itself or maybe the combination of the two. so if a bell atrix allows voip on bell network it might still not work on att network.
I am using a Bell Atrix on Rogers and am having a hard time using the Skype for Android to work properly. I previously used Skype on my iPhone 4 (also on Rogers) and it worked like a charm...
I am surprised that it's working for you on Fido. There is a big thread from the Motorola support forum that discusses about this issue.
BELL Atrix ain't working on Fido. none of VOIP apps is, tried Tango, Skype from Market, Skype hacked for 3G, SIPDroid Csip, Fring........
Sux....
sorry I made a mistake. it doesn't work for me the sound is horrible. I only install and made a call and assume it was working.
If the problem with Skype is sound quality it may be that Skype needs updating to support the phone properly. In my experience with Galaxy S the sound quality was horrendous for the first while (that Skype was even functional) until updates sorted things out. Actually it took a while to even be able to login, when it could first be installed it wouldn't accept any login info. Picky program.
Atrix, Skype, IM+, ClickTalk, Tango vs Bad Audio
I've the same problem as all you and i've try the following apps like Skype, Skype(3G), IM+, ClickTalk, Tango and Yahoo....
All exept the Yahoo is work badly with the audio, it cutting off and here i'm talking about using WIFI connection ... with the 3G forget about-it.
Only Yahoo look to get a good result and not mentionning that only the Qvix, Yahoo and Tango as the Video working correctly
As winner the Yahoo Video and Audio work over WIFI.
I'm using also the SMSSpeak, Call Annoncer and EmailSpeak, the playback are for unknown reason playing back too fast. To fix Reboot the phone, i think the audio driver as something to do here too.
I've read also for our Bell Canadian friend that the Firmware is out of date... like far away ... AT&T as the patch to fix this problem of audio in the next release 1.57 and BELL CACA is still at the Beta 0.83 no fix planned!
After chatting with a tech at Motorola we can't dream for a new version until the new kernel will be availlable to get the Android 2.3 (What a great one i was using this on a real google G1 this is a real charm) ... So since we known that BELL, ATT and Motorola are not reading our note, it's useless to try the get them to move ... exept to get everyone who as a Atrix to Call/Email/Fax Motorola,Bell,ATT,Fido ....
and btw Moto is coming with a new phone... they act like this is just junk hardware like a batterie. Change phone to fix.
