Mobiola Web Cam (paid app) is what I used to use, but now I've started using QIK on my phone...it streams live vid from the phone to your account's webpage, which can be publicly visible, or only available to people you authorize to have access. It also archives the vids there once they're streamed.
It doesnt work with hspda ( 3g ) right ?
thanks for the hint !
I assume it'd work, I know it worked on GPRS in the past (on an older WM6 device). I haven't tried it with the TP2 yet, but I assume it works on any internet connection (3g, wifi).
The only thing I found, is a program called "Qik". Google it. This lets you stream live video from your cell phone to their site. They do give you the code to paste into you website. I have been using it for about a month and had no problems. Hope this helps.

didint work with 3g on my tp2.. only works with active sync, or wifi..
to The Pinhead:
Qik looks nice, i am going to try this out !
Looks like it is eating much data, so i have to watch out.
QIK works great for my ATT Tilt 2. There is something called Tinycam. It is pretty cool. Not sure if it is what you are looking for but I think it will do the job.

Mobiola or QIK? Mobiola works over BT, wifi, USB, not 3g. QIK works on 3G as well, I use it all over town
Octro Video
It is a bit basic, but works well.

Just a thought
If the above mentioned program works with activesync then "theoretically" you could use it on 3g if you were say, activesynced to your Google account?

Strange, it worked with me just great - see my review & tutorial of the title, I've also posted some MSN screenshots.
Try switching to the old WM5 AS networking mode if, for example, it's a firewall issue.
managed to get it working sir, reinstalled coolcam once had installed the C++ thing from MS....works great...excellent
may I know what C++ you've installed on the PC in order for Skype or Yahoo Messenger to recognise coolcam in webcam setting? I'm able to see the webcam stream with the CoolCameraXP not able to select coolcam as webcam in Skype and Yahoo msg.

which C++ from MS did u install? i am also trying to use my TyTn as a webcam on msn messenger, but so far, no luck.
any help would be appreciated!
bump for a response
whoops sorry its been a while since i looked at this thread!
PM me next time people as i dont always look in here. I looked on the microsoft website and found the MS VC++ 2005 Redistributable download. I believe this is what i used as I had to check and see what was in my Add/Remove programs on my PC, this is the thing i used i believe.
Good luck people.
so, forgive me if i'm missing something, is this only for using your device as a webcam whilst connected to your pc, or for using mobile skype or wlm?
i really can't see the point of it if it's only for desktop machines.

you access the front cam either using coolcam on the device or via activesync (works over BT/wifi/usb).
Its not to enable the front cam for skype etc..

The first link on this page is for the trial, which only runs for a minute at a time. I use this software, as it gives me a wireless webcam with built in microphone.
are they? i mean its time tog et a working version for the touch?
I have Trinity which skype does not support either.
However I was able to found one early beta of Skype which worked perfectly on my device. Here is the link ... test it ... I bet it will work.

Use 'fring'. Connects to Skype, works great on my Touch!
Wow ... fring ... completely useless in my opinion.
What use do I have of something unable to use wifi ? (fring works only with GPRS/EDGE on my Trinity)

I am using Skype for Touch, and it's working. I was able to make calls to Singapore.
osavioro,
I have Dopod D810 running offical WM6 rom with Fring v3.20.23.118. It is working fine with Wifi. I wander why yours is not working.
I fring with google talk, msn, skype, they all work fine for me. The advantage of fring is that u do not have to install skype, messenger and other, just one application and one screen to work with multiple IM.
i know
yes search new version of skype at Google then i am sure you will get the latest versions information from there.
Ali.

I'm wondering too why it does not work ... it is searching for connection and do not find one.
Fring works like a charm over wifi on my WM5 Wizard (fring version 3.20.23.118). It should enable wifi on your phone by itself, but maybe try enabling it yourself and make sure it connects to a access point before launching fring?
It's also worth mentioning that fring is much more CPU-efficient. With Skype, i can talk only after overclocking my wizard to something around 260MHz. When i make skype call trough fring, it uses only about 60% CPU time without overclocking (@195MHz). So it is really good software, especially on slower devices.

I've done all mentioned above and there was no effect.
I will wait for more stable and eye-candy version of fring.
However my 400 MHz Trinity does not fear skype
P.S. BTW there is another small application -- OctroTalk -- which support several IMs and even Google Talk (unfortunately Skype is not supported).
If there are enthusiastic people in this thread ... test it please ... you can find it here: http://www.octro.com.
Hi, I need help!
I've tried many chat client on my mobile, for example, Fring and Palringo. But I can not send file. Palringo works very well but it can't be use to transferring file.
Can you say what is the best program to be able to send file and concomitant to chat.
Thanks advance!
you can use im+

Yes and it's a good one but it's too expensive.
$39.95 for IM
I used to use slick on S60 and it supported file transfer. Been using slick on my x1 but I havent try to use files transfer yet. You could try that, just google lonecate games slick.
I'm using BeeJiveIM and fring occasionally....but BeeJive seems to work best so far.
I kinda want a IM app thats finger friendly. But it's rather hard to find

today I checked new version of Fring(3.3.4) which has file transfer.It has real
file trasfer not just as a link! but I can not transferr MP3 with that.
Have anyone tried the new version on XPERIA?
None supports QQ?

Same here,
If you use msn you can even send offline messages.
The downside is that the font is too small for our resolution but still usable.

I would be interested in locating a mobile version of QQ (english preferably..)
I've been using Palringo.
Works alright for me, could be better.
Sometimes I need a soft reset for it to log in, wont log in other wise, dont know why.
Also, do the other apps make the Instant Message LED indicator flash? I know its there in the illumination settings, but palringo doesnt trigger it :|
I like also the EQO Messenger http://www.eqo.com/.
i use slick. a bit slow on some menus but i like it better than nimbuz as it does not require you to log a web server to use.
I use Live messenger and Skype, just as on the laptop.
I have tried fring but it wasn't quite it...
IM+ FTW!!!
I too second IM+. It simply works, while many others simply did not. I use ICQ, GT and Jabber protocols.
And skype for skype, sure, but it's constant data flow and thus constant battery drain. Good if it's cold outside and you want to keep your hands warm
I like fring

T-Mobile TP2 can be used as a webcam???
Yes,
Try this. Worked fine when I tested it on my TP2.

It's good, but it works on the old style of just taking constant pictures. I'm worried about the memory usage, network speed, and ultimately storage space for these photos.

Good, but I heard you need to have this connected via USB to the desktop. I'm a little confused on the IP detection, as well.
Are there any good ones out there that stream motion faster or via flash/java?
Search for OctroVideo.
If you don,t use Valkyrie rom (it dosen,t work in this rom) look for qik,it,s realy great.

I installed Mobiola Web Camera on my Tilt II and it works fine via ActiveSync and WiFi.

Just a heads up - signed up to tvcatchup.com (free) and thought i'd try it in the skyfire browser and it works. not perfectly but not bad and well watchable.
more than 40 uk channels
Dude how did u log in with skyfire?... Whenever I try and use iPhone.tvcatchup.com on my Leo, It only shows the username box?.....
Did u use the desktop site, if so, how do u view full screen. Cheers dude.
I used the skyfire mobile browser (version 1.5.XXX) - and could log in to www.tvcatchup.com no problems. (wasn't using iphone.tvcatchup url just the standard site www.etc)
I'd already set up an account for tvcatchup on my pc before i'd tried logging in on my phone, don't know if that helps.
was watching some of the villa game on bbc last night with it!
The only difficulty i had with skyfire was it wasn't recognising me as being in the uk... so iplayer would'nt work....fixed it by deleting the prefs file that's in the install file/folder of skyfire and it now works pretty good.
Ive tried using the iphone site before, it just gives you a stream link but its .m3u8 which our phones cannot play even coreplayer ive searched everywhere for it.
just have to use desktop site on skyfire a bit jutery but watchable

TVCatchUp on HTC HD2 with Skyfire
TVCatchUp on HTC HD2 with Skyfire:
install skyfire whith the RADIO TURNED OFF, if the radio is on, skyfire then defaults the connection to 3g instead of wifi, re-install skyfire when connected to wifi and it will then work, in landscape as well with BSB Tweak, i have now had it working on 3g and wifi, and it actually runs better on 3g/h than it does on my home wifi.

Works for me, although the experience is not quite as polished as the desktop version. Still find myself reaching for the laptop to watch streaming TV atm...
Using WebTV much much better. it has 1000s channels from around the world.

I've just downloaded the myPlayer app which is just what I was looking for. It has all of the live channels if you are within the UK (BBC, ITV, Channel 4, and more). You will need CorePlayer though.

Landscape appears after soft reset of HD2 and is automatically invoked when turned on its side
I have myplayer installed on my hd2 works great but not as big a channel selection as tvcatchup.
But tv catchup now has some sort of bug through skyfire as it keeps saying none uk as the skyfire servers now direct you through us servers.
Can anyone sort this.
Sorry for caps didn't realise until i finished typing. Not going back & writing it all out again.
