Download the Camera launcher app for Nexus 7 and see if it works from there.

In skype you have to go into settings then at the bottom somewhere there is a tick box that says enable video calling, it is not in ticked by default because of something about it not being perfect yet, works well for me tho.. Not sure about tango.
Edit: if you wanna use the front cam to just take pics normally and for some reason you can't access the stock app the best way is to just download a third party camera app, bought vignette on sale today and that works perfectly too.

Sounds like you have a faulty camera. Probably you want to get a new Nexus 7.

Depends, ask your store or google. But it is alright if it is with google, you will get your new device before sending the old one
But anyway, try to factory reset or flash the stock rom before.

I got "Cannot connect to camera" message in all camera apps on Nexus 7 when running Skype in the background. The other apps started working again when I killed Skype. Its not your tablet thats broken -- its Skype.
Camera is not working in some custom ROMs afaik
Sent from my Nexus 7
You only have one camera. Skype will reserve it, and no other app can get to it if Skype is running in the background. Be aware of what you actually have running.

OOVOO is a very popular video chatting service. The only problem is that on android, they don't keep the app's device check updated with the latest phones. I just bought a Sensation 4g and it isn't compatible. At the same time, it will say the same thing on my Mytouch 4g when I switch to certain roms other than stock. The Mytouch 4g is a supported phone by the way. This is why I believe that if someone can remove the device check, it will work on a lot more phones. Is someone able to do this?
Download the app outside of the Market, it'll work.
Can anyone post the apk of oovoo without device check I can't find it all

Works for me, but whenever I get an app that does that I clear the cache and data then reboot and log in again. So far that has cleared up any issue with an app that is compatible with any of my devices.
Been working fine for me since day one. Have you tried re-installing?

Perfectly okay with me. I can even stream movies from my Drop Box without cluttering with my clearwire 1.5 Mbps wifi !

Clear app data and cache. Uninstall then reinstall.
Tried all of the above and still doesn't work, I'm using the tablet UI if that has anything to do with it, but I doubt it would.

Did you tweak the dpi? Does any other cloud service do the same? Try minus, cubby, skydrive, etc...
But saying that, dropbox has been working since day 1 for me as well.

That's why it does not work. Go back to the standard dpi and get it setup. I think you can then change dpi and it will work.

I used the True Tablet Ui Patch (Link) And completely forgot to make a backup beforehand, Not sure if I can just change the DPI back again, But I'll check.

I bought a Note 3 yesterday which came with Hangouts.... I need Gtalk badly, bcoz i am connected to for 24 hrs and dont like Hangouts as it doesn't have Audio calling feature by default.
I have rooted the device, but the google search didn't help me much.
Anyway to do it please?

Hangouts replaced GTalk, you could search for an older .apk however it'd bug you to update it all the time, and probably isn't supported anymore.
To be honest, hangouts is pretty decent once you get used to it.
Actually i tried it a lot on my ONE, but i the more i tired, more i hate it ...
I got apk files for gtalk... But most of them are not working....
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Google probably killed all support for GTalk now, you;ll have to adapt to Hangouts, or alternatively find a new app with Voice support. WhatsApp can support voice, but not for calling :/ - There's always Skype! not sure if LiNE support Voice though(?)

Yeah no more support after 4.2, won't work unless you can hack the app etc but even then, the services revert to Hangouts since GTalk ceases to exist now. - You have to cut your losses I'm afraid man

Nope, Stopped supporting it now as I said before.

Since the latest update, you won't be able to downgrade to GTalk since Hangouts is a stock application.

I have GTalk on the my Note 3 but I am using a custom ROM (omega) and chose not to install hangouts in aroma installer. Then I just installed the GTalk apk and converted it to a system app. Works fine for me.

I know this is probably more related to the actual FB app but I feel like it's a complete violation of privacy and I don't particularly want this happening but can not seem to find a setting to turn it off.. Here is a scenario where this would be completely out of place and unacceptable..
You take a picture of something private .. You or a friend gets your phone and opens the Facebook app... Oh look the last 3 pics you took.... Really? WTF? Anyone know how to turn this off?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Check settings. Turn off facebook sync photos.
Just using Facebook is violation of privacy. Even if you find away to turn it off that feature; Facebook is always sucking up information from your device (contacts, location, call logs, pictures, and so on). This is one of the reason I don't use Facebook.

That's definitely true... Makes me sad. I think in this issue though the most disturbing thing is that it's accessing another app (gallery) and then putting the 3 most recent pics in the app (suggesting) you post them. Who's to say their appropriate to post. I don't like this at all.

Guys, just get another app for Facebook. There's tons of apps that don't these extra permissions and don't steal your data, AND THEY RUN BETTER than the stock Facebook app. Example : fast for facebook (search it!)

So it ends up looking like this. I tapped on my post, so I could quote your post. Because it always highlights the one above it. Don't say random stuff if you don't know what you're talking about. Obviously if I could have quoted I would've done it. Been doing this a while....

Yes that is a bug. However if you tap the time at the right hand side of each post, the corresponding post is highlighted, not the one above it.
Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't... Sorry for being abrasive. Just been very frustrated with the XDA app lately. It used to be so much easier to use.

There is an app called AppOps X that works on 4.4.2

I have installed Xposed Framework, multi windows are not working. At a time, only one window (half screen) is appearing. When I press back button the another app in background appears to the another half screen.
But the multi Windows work perfectly when used within the app, but not outside the app.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have tried xmultiwindow myself and is the same I think all we can do is wait for an update to be honest. I know this is isn't very helpful but this is the only option I see possible
