Google Talk video chat - Xoom General

Was anybody successful using video chat in Talk when calling a user at a PC with webcam? Meaning NOT Xoom to Xoom?
I've tried calling my wife when she was in gmail (on PC with webcam), but can't seem to show my ugly face to her.

I have done this with no issues. The other person was on windows, using chrome at the gmail web site

I have done gtalk video as well. Xoom to Mac.

Worked great for me xoom to win7 using gmail on pc

Video Calling

How does it work with the Epic? Can you initiate a video call straight from the dialer? A lot of phones my friends would get unlocked from europe all had front facing cams. Like the e75 i think.
Or is video calling only available with qik? Yuk.

Only works through Qik I think.
Fring works well. You have to initiate within the fring app but since it runs in the background you can always receive. Qik never works for me.

I was not able to video chat with aim or google talk... it said it was not supported..
for those of you that have had issues with qik for the epic, the fix is to goto the app store and download qik for htc evo. This came from there help desk.
Out of the box qik would always force reset on me, sometimes it would work for outgoing vid connect but for the most part it would always crash when accessing the address list or imitating a call.
They suggested the build for the evo since you can not remove the bundled version. Well it worked and it seems much more snappy.
I've searched like mad, and I haven't found any way to video chat with any PC clients, especially Skype. If anyone finds one, let me know, but as far as my knowledge goes there's no way to video chat with users of anything besides Fring and Qik, which makes it nearly useless to me.
Try using Tango

[Q] What is the coolest thing you can do on your phone?

2. What is the most useful thing for you personally?
The coolest thing for me is being able to stream espn3 and watching live sports from the browser.
The most useful thing for me is being able to sync all my gmail, tasks and calendars. Also the app super private conversation is a life saver!
Remote desktop. Still my fave feature.
What is super private ?
I like being able to:
Remotely access my PC
Control my TV, DVR, Bluray, etc
Open my garage door
...all from my phone!

play media from my dvr, listen to audio through my bluetooth (comes in handy at work) access my pc from my phone, send sites to my phone through chrome browser, download torrents and watch xvid,divx files on rock player watching green hornet right now!!
super private conversation lets you add certain people to a list and then it will hide their txts or calls and put them in a private folder.
How do you control you're garage door with your phone??
I use it to call people
Seriously the coolest thing is I can swap ROMs at the drop of a hat. Make it be and do what I want it to. That's the coolest.

TV, DVD, etc is done through my Logitech Revue.
Garage door (lights, and stuff) is done with X10 components.
I also like being able to stream 100+ gigs of music from my PC...
Love this phone!! xD

i <3 google listen
x2 on X10 home automation, that's probably the coolest thing I use my phone for. The most useful thing is hard to pick, but sharing my PC and phone clipboard using Tasker has probably been the most useful for me.
Since you guys mentioned it, any way to access my mac from n1?
How is reliability for x10 products ?
Are you using a wifi to rf base..or pc in between ?
No probs with x10 reliability for me.
I connect through the PC, which means I can control lights and stuff from anywhere (work, etc), rather than just close proximity...

Just kidding... actually i cant see sny thing that i can't do on other android-phones, but can see some stuff that doesnt run well pn n1
Watch Directv on 3G or wifi, stream my home or business surveillance systems live with slingplayer. Remote desktop with teamviewer from linux or windows. Download torrents, or get music with gtunes. Google voice translation, gps navigation, practice french. SSH,FTP, wardrive, port scan. Who doesn't use the N1 for a quick shot of porn

PC to mobile video chat

Just in case you did not know it was possible, Yahoo Messenger lets you video chat from pc to mobile devices. Just tested this out a little while ago and it works pretty decently.
Nice! i'll have to give this a shot
I installed a week ago, really works great from my mobile to pc. I wish that msn or skype do somenthing like this.

+1 but have only used calling my wifes SgS2
Well, Skype was just purchased by Microsoft for 8.5 Billion, so lets see what happens to Skype having FFC support for Android... If its on the roadmap, it will still see the light of day but for how long until M$ starts to mess with Skype?
Are you guys calling other SGSII only?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
I used qik and called my friend on his iphone 4
And I am sure you looked Crystal Clear while he looked "OK"...
Does anyone know of an Android video chat app that can connect to Live Messenger / Video Kinect? I'd really like to try video chatting with my daughter through the Xbox once I get the SGS2.

Best video chat service?

Tango works perfect for my droid x, but requires a number for the galaxy tab so, what is the best one for the 10.1 it has the best ff camera out of all the other phones and tablet but I don't know what service to use
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I may be wrong, but I think the only functioning video chat program as of right now is Google chat... until someone mods the Skype app to work with the tab, I think your options are pretty limited.
My wife and I use Fring on our tabs (10.1 &7"). Works great.
