as we all know, the AT&T Atrix has problem with most VOIP softare. Just wondering if the Canadian Bell version is also experiencing the same problem? If not, that means AT&T is doing more than just turning off HSUPA...
I bought a Bell Atrix two days ago and I am DEFINITELY having issue with Skype either thru. WiFi or 3G connection. I am unable to make clear calls and often encountered LOUD STATIC sound on the earpiece.
Please assist...

No can't do at this moment. Need to wait for Motorola to sort this VOIP issue.

Well, I really do hope Motorola will address this issue...
IM+ Talk Skype Calling
Just an update to using the newly purchased IM+ Talk, a web-based Skype calling service. Well, it took me a whopping two-hour to figure out how to make calls and it was super frustrating...I subsequently had to purchase another Skype subscription (unlimited world, in addition to my original unlimited calls to Hong Kong plan) because of the call-back feature IM+ Talk uses.
So how it works is that you enter the CALL BACK number of the device you are calling on, enter the number you want to call, press the CALL button, and then your device will ring. Answer the call and you will then hear your number connecting. I don't know how to clearly explain it but it works on my Atrix thru. 3G connection

im using an att atrix on Fido in canada and i can use skype just fine. i think its att network that is blocking this somehow not the atrix itself or maybe the combination of the two. so if a bell atrix allows voip on bell network it might still not work on att network.
I am using a Bell Atrix on Rogers and am having a hard time using the Skype for Android to work properly. I previously used Skype on my iPhone 4 (also on Rogers) and it worked like a charm...
I am surprised that it's working for you on Fido. There is a big thread from the Motorola support forum that discusses about this issue.
BELL Atrix ain't working on Fido. none of VOIP apps is, tried Tango, Skype from Market, Skype hacked for 3G, SIPDroid Csip, Fring........
Sux....
sorry I made a mistake. it doesn't work for me the sound is horrible. I only install and made a call and assume it was working.
If the problem with Skype is sound quality it may be that Skype needs updating to support the phone properly. In my experience with Galaxy S the sound quality was horrendous for the first while (that Skype was even functional) until updates sorted things out. Actually it took a while to even be able to login, when it could first be installed it wouldn't accept any login info. Picky program.
Atrix, Skype, IM+, ClickTalk, Tango vs Bad Audio
I've the same problem as all you and i've try the following apps like Skype, Skype(3G), IM+, ClickTalk, Tango and Yahoo....
All exept the Yahoo is work badly with the audio, it cutting off and here i'm talking about using WIFI connection ... with the 3G forget about-it.
Only Yahoo look to get a good result and not mentionning that only the Qvix, Yahoo and Tango as the Video working correctly
As winner the Yahoo Video and Audio work over WIFI.
I'm using also the SMSSpeak, Call Annoncer and EmailSpeak, the playback are for unknown reason playing back too fast. To fix Reboot the phone, i think the audio driver as something to do here too.
I've read also for our Bell Canadian friend that the Firmware is out of date... like far away ... AT&T as the patch to fix this problem of audio in the next release 1.57 and BELL CACA is still at the Beta 0.83 no fix planned!
After chatting with a tech at Motorola we can't dream for a new version until the new kernel will be availlable to get the Android 2.3 (What a great one i was using this on a real google G1 this is a real charm) ... So since we known that BELL, ATT and Motorola are not reading our note, it's useless to try the get them to move ... exept to get everyone who as a Atrix to Call/Email/Fax Motorola,Bell,ATT,Fido ....
and btw Moto is coming with a new phone... they act like this is just junk hardware like a batterie. Change phone to fix.
Hey,
New atrix user here. Overall I'm pretty pleased with the phone, but I have one big complaint: it is a nightmare to do VOIP with.
My last phone was a nexus one, with which I used a googleVoice/pbxes/sipdroid setup. Transferred the same rig to my atrix and all it does is churn out static. I then tried CSIPsimple, which was at least comprehensible, but the audio would always come out the rear speaker (with every permutation of the app's earpiece/speaker settings, no less).
The only one I tried that could actually handle the atrix was Fring using the SIP Add-on. The trouble with this though is that it seems to only be able send calls, not receive them.
Has anyone managed to get a passable VOIP setup working on the atrix? The phone is sexy, but with this failing there's no way I'm going to keep it.
I bought my Tab 7.7 3 days ago. Its the 16GB 3G variant. Gtalk video just refuses to work. It will initiate the call and then just close the call window when the other party answers. The same thing occurs when I receive a Gtalk video chat request and answer the call. It usually shows a black screen where the other contact's video feed should be showing and occasionally shows my face and sometimes does not. But it always, always closes the chat window after I answer or the other person answers. I tried updating the firmware to the latest European version, LA3, but the problem persists.
I know that it's not a problem with my connection since my Galaxy Note is able to pull of Gtalk video chats without a hitch and Skype video works fine on both the Tab 7.7 and the Note.
I would really appreciate any feedback on your experiences with Gtalk video on the 7.7 since it is my second most frequently used app.
Anyone? Is Gtalk video chat working properly for all of you?

I just tried it from my tablet to my sister computer and it worked perfectly over wifi.
Unfortunatly i dont think it works over 3g though.
I think your "problem" is the other persons Internet speeds. I did just have a perfect conversation with my sister but whenever i try and call my mom in Malaysia it tends to be very hit and miss if it is going to work or not.

Worked fine for me - both Voice & Video chat. This was between 2 SG 7.7 6810 tabs over Wifi. One was LA2 & other KL5.

Use it daily for video chat with my girlfriend. Never had any problems.

Thanks for the responses guys!
I found out that maxing the image stabilization slider causes some problems with the camera drivers and may cause the Gtalk app to hang sporadically. It also results in a wonky picture. Turning the stabilization slider to minimum seems to have improved the stability of the Gtalk app and I tested it in a Gtalk video chat between the tab and a laptop over WiFi yesterday and found it to be working fine. Still having audio issues with my gf, so it's possible that her connection or my 3G data plan is the culprit. The funny thing is that I havent had the same issues over 3G with my Galaxy Note.
Anyone have any idea why my video calls don't work? Every time that I try to start a video call, it tells me that I don't have strong enough signal (even though I can do anything else and have 30+Mbps download speed at the time)
I have tried with and without wifi, and I get the same thing.
Is this a setting issue?
I've never been able to get it to work either. I know whoever you're calling also has to have a video calling enabled device and your cell signal has to be absolutely perfect
Hello, I bought my wife and daughter the S8 Active for Christmas, upgrading them from the Galaxy S6 . Since using the new phones the call quality is horrible. Constant dropping calls, sound quality cutting in and out with voices sounding robotic. Never had these issues with the S6. This all happens in areas that should have no issues with service. Tried all the basics, updating PRL and profile, tried different carrier options. Tried a factory reset just to mark that off the list. I've been going back an forth with Sprint tech support with no progress. I've been searching around online and these forums (great info here) but I haven't found anything to help. Anyone heard or had issues like this?
The phone(s) are both stock, no root or unlocks.
I should note that the only time the phone does not have an issue with call quality is when it is connected to WiFi using WiFi calling.
Thank you
Did you try toggling HD Voice off and on to see if it made any difference?

If that is the same as the LTE enhanced voice then yes. If it's different I haven't seen it but will check.

I'm on AT&T, but I'm pretty sure thats what Sprint calls it. On both my S6 Active and S8 I had to disable it and the dropped calls ceased and the call quality improved. It seems you've checked everything else (factory reset, clearing cache partition, etc.) so if this doesn't work, I would exchange, maybe for a different phone that would work better in your area. I don't use WiFi calling because it has an echo effect and can also result in dropped calls (at least in my area on AT&T). Good luck and let us know how you make out.
