[Q] 3g video calls - Streak 5 General

Hi,
I couldn't make a 3g video call on my UK unlocked Dell Streak.
How can I enable 3g video calls ?
Thanks.

Video call is not supported.
I think you may use IP video call.

Really ?
That's too bad.
Is there any chance that it will be supported in future updates ?
Is this a limitation of the Android OS ?

This is really a funny situation. My basic Nokia phone can do 3g video calls. Why isn't it supported ?
Any ideas ?
don't you think it's weird...

I don't think there are any apps that can use it. Fring maybe?

But itshouldn't be enabled with any 3rd party application.
It shouldbe supported by the internal dialer so that the incoming 3g video calls can be received.
Idon'tunderstand why it's not supported.
Maybe in Froyo ? (2.2)

Fring support video calls... as long as the other phone has Fring installed. However, if you've seen\tried Facetime on the iPhone4, you're gonna hate it.
Froyo will bring native video calling application for the Dell Streak. Something to definitely look forward to.

Froyo is not necessarily the one that will bring you Video Calling, it's Dell that has to make the app included with the Froyo update.
Froyo's features are mainly speed and performance related (Introduction of JIT compiler, better memory management, etc..), and some extras including Google to Chrome. (a really nice feature I must say), and voice and gesture control.
Again, its all up to Dell...

Front face camera to video chat using WiFi with people on AIM, iChat, etc

So i have the euro Diamond with the front face cam and im in the US...since we cant really use the front face cam for video calls...i wanted to know if there is a app out there (or in dev) that would allow me to use the cam for video calls over WiFi with people who are on AIM, MSN, or iChat, or any other chat service/app...
Yeah if the Skype client would do this then it'd be fab.
Seems unlikely though. Too much bandwidth.
eh i guess not...

Yes I had the same problem, I deinstalled it already.
It is also not possible to choose cam2: (front cam)
this is a really really old non-finished project...Passport does not even exist anymore...
The front cam is not supporting it seems so i too uninstalled and i have to look for some other alternative.

I agree 100% using the front camera on skype or msn would be really cool.

SKYPE or FRING on Earpiece Speaker?? How??

SKYPE or FRING on Earpiece Speaker?? How??
Im really happy with my new Xperia but I have bought mainly to use it with Skype, SkypeIN and Skype Out..
The problem is that newest Skype Mobile for Pocket Pc and also newest FRING for pocket PC work only through the loudspeaker or a headset.
That is really ridiculous and impossible to have a normal conversation over a loudspeaker which creates a huge echo with the inbuilt microphone.
Is there any easy to use application allowing us to redirect VOICE at Skype or Fring into Earpiece regular speaker??
I have found Switch which is causing a lot of hassle to be used with newest Skype.
Another versions of SKYPE and FRING have been released but there is still no support for internal earpiece speaker in xperia.
Do you know any other ways to normally use Skype over the gprs/3g on Sony Xperia X1??

How did you not find the answer immediately by searching? If you type almost anything sensible into almost any appropriate search box you'll come across the solution, which is a program called Troca2 (commonly referred to on here as SkypeFix since someone made a zip file with that name).

Its starting to look a lot like christmas.
not, what im looking for..
Of course I have found it here but thats not what Im looking for AT45.
Its not a fix, its a solution to redirect all the sounds.
How do you suppose to know when someone is going to call you to turn this software on in advance.
How are you going to use your phone all day without the sounds and ringtones?
Its not a solution at all for serious skype, fring users. Im looking for something which changes skype / fring only and doesnt redirect all the sounds in to the ear piece.
It should be a dedicated fix or registry change for skype / fring calls ONLY with the rskype/fring ringtones working of a loudspeaker.

Use an earpiece will work perfectly
What is Fring, Nimbuzz and Skype support doing about it? Do they know? Maybe a few more people need to tell the programmers of thoose skype clients about this problem.
Works finally with FRING !!!

I have emailed both companies and got NO replies saying that it cant be done in the near future...
However FRING people has done it. That works fine with FRING now !!!!!!!!
There are still some minor issues about fring loosing connection and only available status can be used but at least FRING is better using skype protocole than skype itself.

Automatic Call Recording

Is there a way to automatically record all calls made to or from the phone? I would like something that would also email the recordings to my email address to prevent the memory on the phone from being used up with this.
Just Curious
Russ
I use a program called Vito Audio Notes Touch and it has an option to auto record calls. The interface of the program is very basic and it works well on a touch screen phone. I was also surprised at how good the recording quality is on the TP2 with this application.
Thanks, that looks good, I will try it out and see!
If anyone should know of a free alternative, please let me know!

i have been using this app acr for a couple of months now, on the t-mobile wing and t-mobile tp2, and it works perfect look no further this is what you want. it lets you record incoming and out going call and store them anywhere(on device mem, or storage card). if you let some one use your phone no one will ever know that their being recorded.
and on that note on my t-mobile tp2 with stocked rom, when i make a call and it is going through i just press menu and i have a opion on the menu that says record and it does. this one you need to actative it your self!!!
but the acr app (the one above it does it by itself)
hope this helps all
This software is working wonderfully for recording, now if I could just get it to email the files to me
This is definitely a good answer to this issue though.

I can hear both sides of the call clearly.
And its still on the market place for 5 bucks.
As long as Android doesn't provide the necessary API's, you won't find a decent solution.

I just checked all my calls and it seams that only calls between me and the wifey (att dumbphone) are the only calls i can hear both parties loud and clear.
Other likes my brother (tmobile mytouch) and sister (att samsung somecrap) I can only hear myself talking.
so did any if ya got a recording app to work on the HD 2 ??

[Q] Phone call recording

So, I had this awesome phone call recording software on my Touch Pro 2.. Recorded every call I made and converted it to MP3.. I used it multiple times...
1.) in proving to warranty techs that I had followed the guidelines I had been told on the phone
2.) when I stopped paying attention to what my girl was saying, i could always review what she had been screaming at me about later.
3.) If I was getting info, I would never need to write it down, as I could always just playback the call later and get the address/contact info/etc.
So, now I actually need to pay attention to what my girl is saying and carry a pen with me and have gotten screwed already by a technician... and I am not happy...
I saw that there is software already out for HTC: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/record-phone-calls-on-your-hero/
Is there anything like this for the Epic?

You might have a look at this.
EDIT: But I'm with you - that was a great feature of Windows Mobile. As I recall, EnergyROM on my Fuze had it built in to the dialer.
I am also interested to know!

It has to use Google Voice (which I dont use) and only does incoming calls. When I am calling support lines, its an outgoing call for me.. so this doesnt work.. but thanks.
