ParanoidAndroid and Skype incompatible? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I just today installed ParanoidAndroid. I use Skype to play various pc games, and having a slow computer, I use Skype on my Nexus 7. However, with the ROM, you cannot hear what other people are saying in a call. They can hear you and each other, but you cannot hear them. Also, every other sound worked both in Skype itself (ex logging in sound and ringtone) and in all of my other apps. If anyone knows something that I could try, that would be terrific!
Also, I've tried both the newest update of skype and the Amazon download, as well as oovoo, getting identical results.

HELP...Volume not working

Well I installed a couple of programs today, and it seemed like everything was working fine, then all of a sudden I realize I have no volume on my Media player, youtube player, etc. The phone rings, I can talk to people, but there is no sound. Even when I go to try to change my ring tone, and preview it, it's not playing, yet when someone calls it does. Someone please tell me it's an easy fix.
Here is what I installed on the phone today
Inesoft Address book and Cyberon Voice Command

New Music/Clock/Camera/Gallery Apps

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/04/0...y-desk-clock-and-cube-wallpaper-android-apps/
Anyone know of they work on the Nexus One? I'm downloading them now.
Camera installed and works but missing the shutter button graphics. Meh
Music App works great.
Desk Clock fails to install. Could be a permission thing.
Gallery 3D FCs when trying to launch.
Cube Livewallpaper works but FC's when opening the settings
I just tried the new Music app this morning. It works. They have official signatures too so it works even on unrooted phones.
The music app seems nice, though it also seems a bit sluggish to me. It will take a few days to know if some of the Music apps annoying bugs have been fixed yet.
I haven't tried the other apps yet, maybe later today. I'm curious what has been changed.
camera nd music work fine (though you will replace the camera app entirely and the prog is a bit crippled regarding options)
gallery-app does not work for me (force closes)
Music works fine, but still has not implemented Gapless Playback and Album Artist classification.
It won't install for me. It just says "Application not installed".
????
is there a way to install these on an unrooted phone without overwriting the original system apps?
Just install as normal. You can't overwrite a system app.
Any remarkable improvement in the new camera app?
I can't find the “Recent” section with album previews and a scrolling wheel feel? Can you guys tell me how to get to it?
Thanks.
Are any of y'all running unrooted stock gingerbread 2.3.3 on your phones? I am and I can only get the gallery to install and it just force closes
This is unrelated but I tried the leaked skype w/ video app from droid-life.com and it wouldn't install either.

Im running stock gingerbread and the music player downloaded and is working just fine. Didn't try the other apps because reading the comments from other users they all had the same result as you.

Thanks for the feedback.
I tried re-installing the gingerbread update and installing the app again but I just got the same results. I had rooted my phone using SuperOneClick when it had Froyo because of internal space issues but when I updated it to Gingerbread there was really no need. It is my understanding the phone becomes unrooted after you install the update right?
I am unrooted 2.3.3, and as I said earlier, the music player won't install. I just get "Application not installed".
Is that what other people are getting?

I got the same error. My problem was that I had the updated music player (Gold Speaker Music App). I went ahead and reflashed the gapps, Giving me the old music app (Blue Speaker Music App), now the the music app installs just fine.
Note this will not replace the Blue Speaker Music App.
After the Leaked Music App was installed, I do not have the Music Sync option in the my Google sync settings that came with the Gold Speaker Music App. I have tried to update to the Gold Speaker Music App after I got the leaked music app working however the Gold Speaker Music App replaced both music apps.
Thought I would add: I was doing this in hopes that I would get the Jumper and the Sync option with the new Leaked Music App, just in case Syncing would start working. Maybe this is the key to get the Google Music Sync to work again and I hope someone smarter than me can figure this out.
Ah, a great thing about the new music player (just installed with no problem on my unrooted N1) is that it works with Voice Search's "Listen To..." option, where the old Froyo one doesn't. Very sweet. "Listen to Paranoid" brought the song right up, and it starts playing, no need to hit any keys. Will be great in the car.
Also seemed to grab an existing playlist I made on my phone using PowerAmp, which also makes me very very happy.

[Q] Automute sound when receiving Skype Call

I'm trying to set up Skype on my ASUS TF101 or my wife. It is rooted running Android Revolution HD 2.1.1. The thing I'm trying to figure out is how to have the tab auto-mute the music, video etc when I receive a Skype call. Many music players run in the background and its a bit of a pain to try and answer the call and bring up the music player to either stop or mute it. Any assist would be greatly appreciated
Sounds like something tasker might be able to do.
Thanks I will give this a shot.

Installed "Record My Call" and now volume is always very loud

I installed the app from Play called "Record My Call" and I immediately noticed that volume of my HTC Glacier running Cyanogenmod 7.2 became too loud on the lowest setting, everything including calls, youtube, mx player, games, and music. I uninstalled this crummy app, and unfortunately the problem still persists. This exact same thing was previously experienced on an installation of Virtuous Unity when I installed Record My Call on that, so I am quite certain that this crummy app is the culprit. I hope that this is a quick fix of simply changing a few registry keys around (erm, the Android or Linux equivalent of that), so if any of you Android guru's know what's up and how to reverse it, I would appreciate the help. Thanks!

No sound from notifications

SlimKat 4.4.4 on SGH-T-999
Flashed about a year ago, no issues except camera (Can't access camera sometimes. CM does this also. Not the point of this post)
Recently noticed I'm not getting sound from Google voice notifications. I get the Notification bar & LED flash.
I wiped app data & reinstalled. The sounds came back. I set the notification tone & it worked about a day.
It stopped working again. I just now realized that other notifications not making noise either.
Interesting fact is that in the app/notification sound picker, the sounds don't preview. When you pick a new sound, it is supposed to play so you can tell which sound. There is no sound. I have Business Calendar Pro, SplenDo (Tasks), Hangouts, GMail. No app plays the sound when you change the notification sound.
I have phone ringtone & it will accept changes & it plays the sample when you change it.
I can play audio from a few different apps (Google music, Spotify, ES File Exp, Onkyo Player)
The only reason I'm posting it here is it seems to be affecting everything, so I dont think it's an individual app.
Not sure where to look next.
