Skype not working on mt4g - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello I rooted mt4g and installed cm7 and everything works great like wifi and gps. Great internet speeds. The only thing that is bothering me is that my skype app will no longer work. Is there a way to fix that? Please help because I really need to use that freaking thing on the phone

skype
not Swype....
to the OP. If you used Skype on HTC MySense or Android 2.2 on this phone it may because Skype has not updated their program to work with the 2.3 platform.
i dunno i don't use skype and will not use it. And yes that accounts for qik.

Crud. Sorry for the noise. Think i'll create an app called "snype" just to add to the confusion.

Fully working rom?!

Is there a fully working rom on this forum? I see tons of roms but I see that many have issues like mms not working..
I'm looking for a rom where all the features work just as the stock 2.2.1 rom...
Suggestions? Thanks!

what's broken about CM7?
Team royals 1.6 rom doesn't have mms problems..Well at least not for me anyways but i haven't found any problems with it so far since it first came out...I think its the most stable rom in here...

I have tried Evil and Gorilla's Desire HD Rom's, Ice Glacier, CM 7, Royal Thunderbolt...have never ran into any issues on either of those. Each phone is unique and will not give you the same results. My advice is to decide what you like stock or sense and then try the different roms out and go from there.

Once your "rooted" and your no longer running stock there is no such thing of "100% FULLY working"..
But try CM7 nightlies there awesome.
You can give my AOSP 1.0.1 a shot... It is functional... I don't believe it has any visible bugs...
My vote is on Orange sense, such a great Rom haven't found much, if anything at all, wrong with it

I have no problems with Royal Ginger 1.6. Its awesome, I run this one all the time.

Not to be a party pooper, but shouldn't this be in Q&A?
Yes it should be in Q&A.
But, with any AOSP Rom you are going to have data slowdown. After a while of the phone being in standby the data will drop to about 1mb downloads. WiFi will cap at about the same.
Once you toggle airplane mode it wakes something up and you will have your usual speed back.
No one has been able to solve this yet, and is the only drawback to aosp.

I been runnin royalginger v1.4.1 for the longest & never had an issue,internet speeds never slowed dwn & wifi was just plain fast,as for 2.2 royalglacier has been the most stable,Team Royal's rom are smooth,fast & stable but again once rooted no rom is 100%,**** no phone is 100%.....
Roylalthunder is a great and fast Rom too and your speeds increase as well

Royal glacier is the most stable build I've ever had on a phone. It's so good that I have a brand new g2x that isn't being used at the moment.

Android 2.3.4 upcoming...

Anyone have any idea if this will possibly help with the crazy (hacked) FFC support? Boy Genius Report - Android 2.3.4
First, this should be in the general section.
Second, google is going to fix the FFC problem by making gtalk the go-to videochat app. Everyone has it on their android devices, but nobody uses it. It would appear they're trying to make the out of the box experience better by integrating software that will work with the hardware rather than relying on third parties like oovoo, qik, or fring.
hopefully cyanogen incorporates this update into 7.1

You need to change the model to "Nexus S". Changing the manufacturer name stopped working due to an update or something.

I'm hoping you meant Samsung. If you put an i in there that's probably why it didn't work.

[Q] What Roms Suppost FFC In Qik Yahoo Tango ooVoo Etc

i dont know about anybody else but i bought my mytouch 4g because of the ffc and ability to video chat (or i would have stuck with my g2) and i hate the standard ui and battery life sucks with stock rom..
Can Someone Name Or Link Some Of The Best Roms Supporting FFC On Various Apps
And A Gingerbread Rom That Supports It Would Be Amazing
Qik is supposeably working on cm7 now on the latests builds.I can't confirm it because I have not tried it yet. I never liked qik either way.
Yahoo video chat only works on stock mt4g roms. I have not found a rom that it works in yet. I've tried almost all roms.
Tango and oovoo should be working on every rom. I know tango does, its what I use. Oovoo I have not tried. I've heard of others confirming is does though.

don't know if your sure about that but I used the Thunderbolt and evil 4g HD roms and they both supports FFC. OOvOO works on both i used them with my girlfriend and quality is good to be on mobile. So those two roms are great the only thing is you DO NOT get HTC Hub on the Thunderbolt but your 4g signal is a lot faster.

Try moving the app to SD card in application management, I had the same problem. I'm running the latest cm 7 nightly, btw. You just might have too many apps installed.

As far as I remember, mostly licensing issues. While Netflix has always wanted to many an android app, various restrictions from content partners wouldn't allow it without proper protection, drm, etc...
Though if the app is this easy to get working... I have no idea whats changed is the real question... Since I mean, it doesn't seem all that secure...

No it doesn't actually, my thinking is why are they restricting it to certain phones with the impression that it won't work on any other phones? The average joe is going to think it won't work on their particular phone because it won't ever get on their "List". of course I may be totally wrong and all of a sudden they do a blanket across the board release lol.
SWEET
ok I got it to work. Used the no detect APK version. Make sure to have it installed on the SD. Just got a black screen when it was installed internally.
Works great!

Never. Typically ported OSs (ROMs) are always a work in progress. I mean Team Cyanogen has 252+ updates of Gingerbread alone.

ah see? that's the thing.. we know the issue, we just don't know how to solve it as of now
but no worries, feb is working with devs from the DHD, who got their camera working.
Currently on the Creamed Glacier ROM by feb and was wondering if anyone else is having problems with the music force closing? dunno if there was a fix yet.
In my experience, ive also had the FC music app, but there was always another music app installed right next to it. Im not sure if the force closing app is the stock ICS music player and the one that works is google music or w/e they are calling it. but for the time being i have just uninstalled the force closing app and used the remaining with no problems.
so yea you are not the only one with that issue.
