Tango Video Chat App is now live - EVO 4G General

Tango has released their video chat for iOS and Android, you can find it in marketplace or at Tango.me
Might not show up in the Apple market just yet, they're a little slow.
I haven't tried it yet, but it looks promising.

So does this mean we can video chat with iPhone users as well?

Fring already lets you talk with iOS devices.
What does this do differently?

Thanks for the info, will check it out.

Just got done installing on the old lady and my evos. Video quality is much better than Qik or Fring.

Wow, that's what I have to say about the App. Its awesome, no push to talk button like qik. Way better picture quality, and its full screen. Also has a small button on the top right of the screen so you can switch cameras. I love this App, let's Tango everyone.

I guess we were holding it wrong.
I downloaded Itunes to updated her IPhone, and the damn thing wouldn't even update(3G one) Took me 3 times to download the updated for some reason, and then it tried to backup her phone and itunes kept freezing. So she said i think i cant get a upgrade the the Iphone 4, so we log into he account(which takes about 3 min) her bill was 100 bucks and she had a 39.99 plan(i about pooped myself) but with all the additions(text,web, etc.) it brings her monthly bill up that high.
Man im so happy im with Sprint!!
edit: that reminds me i better uninstall that bulls!t program they call iTunes

My buddy can't here me talk on his captivate

Heads up - Skype is here.

Verizon let go of the deathgrip they had on Sykpe! Free for anyone now!
Android > iPhone. This is a HUGE deal.
Woot that's awesome
No video chat yet.
wish they would let go of the death grip on fring instead

And you can only do voice chat over WiFi (in the US). Most of the time, that's what I'd be using Skype for, but not always.

Yeah.. if you're forced to use WiFi, you probably have a computer around to video chat anyway. Right now this app is pretty useless. Come on Google.. release mobile Gmail video chat already.
I dont get why they wont just add video to gtalk... that'd make EVERYTHING a ton simpler for all of us.

What's the percentage of people with phones that have front facing cam? Now what's the percentage of people with a desktop/laptop that has a web cam? There's your answer.
I'm hearing rumblings that Skype for mobile is STILL exclusive to Verizon. They get 3G/WiFi Skype, the rest of us get WiFi.
Yeah its useless thats the point of Skype video chat
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
if you can put up with the low quality Qik has a desktop client now, Mochiva is also pretty low quality but they have a desktop client, it really is a pain to not have skype going, they announced some new feature that allows a HUGE amount of multicam chat, i forget the number i think they claim 30? anyways its crazy, i know a few programs have multiple cam chat but ive always stuck with skype
Maybe I am missing something?
For those saying Skype only works over WiFi, am I missing something? This is a direct quote from the Skype App "Free* Skype-to-Skype calls over 3G or WiFi"
I haven't tried making a call yet on 3G so are you saying that its not supported on the EVO over 3G? It does say its not supported on the Samsung Galaxy S, but no where says anything about EVO.
I must be doing it wrong. I downloaded Skype from Android Market, and installed it, but it won't let me sign in.

That phone is more realistic and it would look sick. It would really suck if you lost the bluetooth attached headset. We can expect phones like this around 2015-2020.

no. nanotech can allow both things to happen. It has 3 different "panels". they can close off the panel with the coffee maker so nothing gets in it, and then the shaver can be on top of the keyboard panel, with a small tank like holder so hair doesn't go down to the keyboard.

A different kind of comparison...HTC EVO vs Chrome OS Netbook (First Entry - 2/3/11)

So yesterday i received a cr-48 from google. I about **** myself. Being one of the lucky ones i decided to start a blog that compared my evo and the netbook. What I'm looking for is ideas to do comparisons on. From simple to complex and anything in between. After a day of pretty intense use i haven't been able to find much on the basic side of things that one trumps the other on.
So shoot me ideas on what i could try to make these 2 devices do battle with. Post 2 will be reserved for things covered and things to be covered. I will try to keep up with this as much as possible and post my review and comparison at http://evovscm48.blogspot.com/

At least give us a picture of the thing, sheesh.
How is the call quality on the netbook? I know...bad comparison. I bet the evo wins.
This gives me a great idea! I got these apples the other day, I'm gonna go out and get me some oranges and do a comparison.
I kid, I kid.

Have you discovered where the dev switch is yet?
Hell...I'm just happy I got one.
I just got mine too a couple days ago.
I haven't gotten one yet, still hoping to, but I've seen some other sites that say that the cr-48 has Bluetooth in it so that plus the Verizon card built into it might work for calls or voip.

there is no way I would ever support Samsung if they cant even get 2.2 working properly after 6 effing months of promising it - and no 2.3!
this are incompetent at best and are total amateurs - look at what these developers have done here for free! - Samsung sucks the only good thing about this phone is the screen and the slide out keyboard, but even that sucks some times as it doesent register every key press even though I here the click - so I guess its only the screen thats good
