the hd2 video call support

the hd2 does not have secondary camera and its software doesnot support video call so is there any program or teweak to enable videocall in it through the main camera like devices with no secondary camera
what, no secondary cam!?
yes, no video calls, no front cam.
If you read the spec you'll see that their is no front cam, no video calls. Just the main 5mp camera.
As for initial query, I'm not sure the HD2 has the necessary hardware & software available in the main camera to support video calling. Sounds like its plausible though, but haven't heard of any available software which would do the trick

Come on guys! Don't tell me you are not capable of creating a cab to allow Video Calling and Video Receiving on the HD2? I am sure you can, so come on, roll on your sleaves and give us that satifaction. Obviousely we out here would be more than willing to reward the one in there who has the guts to take up the challenge! My suggestion: Make it also compatible with external web cams as an alternative to the lack of the front camera.
i will be donating 50 dollars for a working cab for hd2 , (please mods remove my thread to hd2 forum as i already travelled there)
i can donate 20 bucks for this app without hesitation
hey all this is just my thought..
why cant since the usb port on the hd2 receives and sends signals for charging and tv out (touchpro 2) why cant the devs create a driver or program so we may be able to use an external cam (by modifying the origanal usb cable) of course, connected to cam, im sure the wires are all the same even if the came itself had to be powerd by batteries.. just a thought
isn't that what skype is for ????
Video Call Support on HD2
Hey guys,
I notice there're two camera-like circular optical devices (are these sensors or what?) at the front top-left of the device - what are these for and can't they be harnessed for use as a front camera? I find it strange that video call support could have been intentionally left out of the spec...for crying out loud???!!

They're the light and proximity sensors.
I would imagine that as the actual use of video calling is minimal, losing the front camera wasn't seen as a great loss, and saves them quite a bit in costs.
It's also more appealing to the networks, notice how video calling on the iphone requires wifi not 3G to work.
My HD can not be use for a video call in China...!
i want to have a HD2 rom with video call....for examle ,the nokia E63 can use the mian camer to video call ,HD2 Why not?
I use my HD2 in Shanghai on China Mobile, I'd love to see this work as well.

I have used Tango on android 2.2 and it works, the only problem is the main camera poins the wrong way, some sort of mirror divice would work but hey, its not that much of a major problem. If you need to video call there are loads of other phones you can buy.
circular optical devices are proximity sensors used to turn of the screen when u hold the phone close to ur ear and to mute the ringer when u turn the phone facing downwards. they are small laser guns which wont record image
HD2 is an AWESOME phone but sadly there is no front camera

Video call

is it possibly to make video call on hd2 ,because I dont see anywhere that option
There is no front facing camera, so there is no built in facility to make video calls.
yes I can see it dones not have front camera but I had many years ago nokia 6630 and it did not have front camera but it could make video call.

[Q] MT4G Video Recording: Switch between front and rear facing cameras

I have been searching for a video RECORDING apps that will enable me to switch between the front-facing and the rear-facing cameras in mid-recording (without stopping the recording).
Qik and the myTouch 4G default cameras allow you to switch, but only when not recording. The other camera then gets disabled, and if you want to switch, you have to stop recording. I don't really wanna stitch 2 videos together, although I guess this is the short term answer until an app is made or an existing one supports this.
I have searched a few forums and Google without any answers. Is this even possible (even with root) or is this just wishful thinking?
EDIT: I know this is possible with video chat, but I want this for video recording.

[Q] video recorder not working right

Hello all I am new here I hit my phone with a piece of two in steel at work and broke my camera lens. I have replaced the lens already and the camera works fine but the video recorder is trippin, the picture looks fine as I am recording but when I play the video its all green with lines. Any help is appreciated thanks a lot

Well I am going to state the obvious here. You probably knocked something a lose when you hit your HD2 with that piece of metal, or did not get your connections for your camera back together good if you had to take your HD2 apart fix the camera lens.
Does your pictures do the same Section the video? Also does it do it when you play other video that was not recorded with the camera.?

I was wondering how you fixed your camera lens, I scratched mine, it makes any pictures all foggy.
It would be nice to have it clear again.

dont have how to change the lens on video?

hey everybody !!!
i found that during video shooting i cant change the lens from regular to portrait ????
i never had video cam that had that
do i missed something?
While recording a video using one of the rear lenses, you can select between the rear lenses only, and cannot choose the front facing camera.
If you start the recording using the front facing camera, you can only record using that and none of the rear lenses are available to use.
I'm order to switch sides, you need to stop the recording and then change between the front or rear cameras.
