where can i find installer of skype for my x2? i have nimbuzz but when i call when they answer the call..they cant hear me and i dont hear them..
sorry had to delete link
just a heads up, today when i tried to launch skype it gave me a message say "skype for xperia mobile application is not designed for this device" when i made a few angry calls and spent a few hours hours on google i've come to the conclusion that skype has fully dropped support for windows mobile devices. so the skype app i posted DOES NOT WORK but i have found an app called fring that allows your to use skype but i haven't tried it yet. well sorry about the bad news and good luck to anybody trying to get skype to work.
Skype for EXPERIA X2
In Russian firmware R3AA035 (last at this time)
not working IP telephonia: skype or sipnet, voice from the microphone blocked on hardware or drivers level.
Not working sound recording during a telephone conversation, too blocked at the hardware or driver level.
Do not operate a missed call indicators.
I find the time and will return to court for compensation, would recommend to everybody to do likewise.
It's a joke SE?
why do I pay for it?
Skype no more support Windows Mobile, you can use old version (worked on other phones WM)

, or use other VOIP client for example FRING

It had almost 1 year that fring does not work with skype account...
I know only 2 other skype clients for winmo: Nimbuzz and iSkoot.
Fring can ringing on skype and skype can ringing on fring(additional settings needed), but not from XPERIA X2.
Sound from microphone of X2 is blocked or scrambled or something else.
I can hear only a part of words on good WIFI connection.

Anyone any advise on the best skype, voip, sip apps ??
Thanks
If you need to make skype-to-skype calls then Fring and Nimbuzz. If you just need to make paid calls, Skype Lite should do.
Best sip app is sipdroid.
what's sip?
It's one of VoIP protocols: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_Initiation_Protocol
I have to say that I used fring the other day to do a skype to skype call over wifi, and the quality was bad - delayed audio, crackling, general low audio quality. My partner has the skype client for iPhone, and her call quality is, to be honest, amazing. It sounds better than calling on mobiles (when calling over wifi).
I hope this is not common and I would love for someone to tell me if Nimbuzz has good call quality over wifi.

I had the same experience with fring over wifi. No point in even trying 3G.
Why don't you just go ahead and test nimbuzz yourself?
nimbuzz has better sound quality than Fring. Do not know about the comparison to iphone skype app.
What is this Skype Lite?
Is this the one for Verizon Wireless?
http://www.skype.com/download/skype/android/
But this one is useless to me because it cannot be used with WiFi ...
And it is only for Verizon
I just dont get this, why Skype does not make generic full native client for Android?
Google does not allow it?
Skype does not know how to code?
Patents?

I really can't believe we can't get an official skype app for android.......
I think most mobile networks do not want people making calls over Skype because it goes over VoIP the voice network - So your network would lose out on charging you.
However, I just found out you can install Skype Lite beta on the HTC Desire and it makes calls/IM's. If you look on google for "Android Freeware - Skype Lite Beta" you should find it.
Does it work via Wi-Fi?

The chat/skype>skype feature works via the 3g/data/WiFi however landline calls goes via your phone's voice network (charging your network minutes).

• I use Smartgroshen app. • With Smartgroschen app, you can make cheap phone calls to all mobiles and landline in the world from your smartphones and tablet without sim card.

I think Verizon Wireless has some sort of exclusivity on the Skype app.
http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/get-skype/on-your-mobile/skype-mobile/android/
Skype exists, but right now, it's limited to Verizon in the US.
(Also, the program is called Fring. How many times can you misspell the word "Fring" in one thread??)
Fring or Fringe that is not the point.
As long it does not allow us to make skype calls i realy do not care how you spell it
Fring or Fringe cause it is useless to me.
Alright guys, i gues i can forget skype fo rnow.. but is there any other software like skype where i can buy credits and make voip call sover wifi and 3g???
http://www.truphone.com/applications/devices/android/ it seems it is what you are looking for... i think, you can find it in the market
i searched the market for voip apps and a i got quite a few
so you should look an see if there is any that is good for you
I always use Nimbuzz to make free calls via skype. Lite version of Skype does not give call function. It is just that other person has to login to skype, as I am not not using any credit....
Are u still using nimbuzz, last time i checked nimbizz didnt offered skype out calls on android.

Thanx alot bro but this is too expensive i have US and Canada for 2.99 mth unlimited.
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
I think it was the other way around, it was Skype's decision to remove there service from Fring cuz thery're not profiting from them and Fring is gaining more recognition over the Android platform. I am a long time user of Skype and I pay $13.99 a month for the Unlimited World plan just to call my gf in Thailand. It is sad to know that they removed their service from Fring but this can also mean that they're developing an app of their own that could make VoIP calling over Android possible? Nonetheless, i'm still getting my White Rachael

Thanks buddy.
I know it's nitpicking but man am I getting tired of people calling Fring > Fringe.
Yes - It does matter because it's called Fring.
Sent from my Winodes computer running Visat 46 bit ... see ... it matters.
can someone give me application that i can use to call skype nd yahoo.
hye..hav u try nimbuzz?
nimbuzz is not compatible in x2..
any one found and tried successfully any application for skype on X2 ?

Yes, it's actually Skype for Windows Mobile.
Works in both WiFi and 3G networks
Yeah, really??????????/
Do you even use it yourself??????????????
Because the MIC is DISabled with Skype on this crappy X2 !
So unless you can post any registry or other trick, skype on X2 is useless!
Erm...
I screwed it big time, haven't I?
I have tested Skype for WM in the early days of my X2, it worked properly back then.
I wasn't aware that the support ceased and 'they' found a way to strangle VoIP.
My apologies to all concerned.
yours humbly marius
Has anyone got nimbuzz working for the i9000? When I make a call to another person over skype they can hear me clearly but I can never hear the other person anyone else got this problem? I hope theres a fix out there cos its a shame that such a powerful device doesn't even have voip my friends old black and white nokia haas voice calling and he's slating my awesome phone lol how its that possible that an old beat up nokia can voice chat but I can't? What about the old skype.jar file? Can that work using j2me runner?
Please help!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
install fringe
it works
it can do video calls too
and also does MSN, ICQ, Yahoo, AOL, SIP (whatever that is)
after installing fringe i removed Google Talk, MSN, and Yahoo chat from my phone, since that single app can do it all
But lemmie guess, with fringe, does it use the speaker only?
Because I use sipdroid, but since it uses the loudspeaker, there is lots of echo. On the i7500, they apparently used another kernel to fix these issues.
I can't use fring because its blocked in the uae if I could I'd run to use it lol could someone tell me why nimbuzz isn't working? That's my only option now cos talkonaut is ****e

Fring support seems to be working hard on the Galaxy S audio and video issue.
Is there no one who has used nimbuzz successfully here?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
I recall it working fine the last time I had it installed. Don't have it anymore as I reflashed my phone and trying to cut down on apps I don't use.
people say they can hear me but i cant hear them i cant imagine what the problem is
Fring doesn't support Skype video calling anymore... what does it use for video calling? Just its own protocols?
Also, it's annoying because you cannot set the notifications in Fring - it's the same annoying vibration!

I tried nimbuzz to msn , and it worked fine on a Galaxy S
Fring doesnt support Skype anymore at all.. no? not just video calls..
Fring is working fine here, doesnt support skype anymore for now but evrybody have msn right?
Sipdroid supports video calls but I didnt try it yet so I dont know how it works.
If you are interested just in sip calling, I just found a very nice app
light and with a very good call quality and no configuration needed, just sip settings : mobileVOIP
Well you do need an account with a supported voip provider
I'll try this when I get home thanks although I need skype to work msn would still be good

i already did this once on yahoo messenger but now its not working and im sure there is an application doing this, i already tested nimbuzz and yahoo they are not working. tango is only mobile to mobile there is no pc version,nimbuzz is only voice and it works.
Same here, Yahoo Messenger only worked once, vaguely, and I think it was the back camera anyway.
Like you said Tango is not to PC and I don't like their phone based system, give me a UserID!
Tried a thing called Movicha, complete disaster.
The only working solution I've found with the front camera after searching high and low is ClearSea, a professional app with a trial version : http://www.mirial.com/products/ClearSea_desktop_video.html - when you sign up they give you two accounts.
Video is pretty good, at least over wifi, unfortunately there is a problem with the sound when you call a computer, as feedback/larsen quickly kicks in on the PC (even with noise cancelling enabled), I suppose you have to use a headset, Skype doesn't need that.
Wonder when Skype will have video on the Android version...
