today it's out a new skype, but not for wildfire.
how do i install it ?
is it possible?

I downloaded it from market. But i cant login :/
does anyone know how to fix it?

from market? from wildfire market? is there?

Skype say not supported.. due to Wildfire small screen

This is the one that works on 3 uk, dont know if it works on other networks though.

Don't bother, the Skype in the market FC closes all the time.
Also use appbrain to install it, See my guide in General section.

I mean appbrain market sorry
anyway it wont connect, i got connection error and i'm unable to use it

I downloaded it from the normal Android Market. Managed to sign in but it was a bit sluggish. The real problem was trying to exit the app. Apparently the Log Out option is in one of the tabs, My Info I think it was. Whenever I try to press that tab, I get a force close and the app restarts and logs me back in. Ended up having to kill it.
Don't know if I can call or text yet because I uninstalled straight away. Nimbuzz will do fine until they sort it out.

i could log-in via wlan,but skype crashed instantly when i tried to do anything (htc default rom)

Just installed and it's working fine....

Worked fine on OD 4.0.32. Really had no issues with it except the sneaky log out button.. im gonna try it on stock 2.2 and report back..
*edit* sorry my bad.. posted on the wrong forum.. :$

Wildfire - NO
Just installed on Wildfire (via .apk). Screen and graphics looked great, but when clicking on My Info or trying something else, it keeps crashing. Lets hope, that Skype devs will make it work also for this very popular device

Same here. I can login, but clicking on any button crashes the app. Very sad, I was hoping to finally have Skype on my phone.
I wrote a mail to the support, they just answered that the Wilfire isnĀ“t supported at the moment.

So at least there is probability, that it's only "at the moment" and in future, there will be release for small res. phones...

Everything works fine,but i can't make calls.Chatting works fine,info works fine.

How are you able to chat? As soon as I try to, the app crashes. Are you using the app just released by Skype or a different version?

I'm wondering too... my crashed, before i tried to set online statu in My info...

work like charm no crashes so far

On Wildfire? It's interesting...

I downloaded and installed the beta skype apk from rapidshare.I cant make a call from wifi (skype credit only),but everything else works like a charm in my wildfire.I use the original 2.1 wildfire rom with no mods and stuff.

There is also Fringe application. But recently they had to delete Skype support so it's rather a substitute to skype and you cannot connect to skype friends via Fringe.
I found an app which is called Skype(beta).apk and seems to work fine.Is it legal to attach the file to the post?
You can grab a beta at bananalex(dot)com - works great on my Wildfire.. smooth
Skype beta is only for chat, no voip!
Does Nimbuzz work fine?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Nimbuzz works quite well, even if there is lag sometime..
but audio and chattin are ok!
Obvioulsy, it isn't Skype.. but it could be a good 'temporary' replacement!
I found an app which is called truphone and seems to work fine...
Hy all.I have me too nimbuzz on my wildfire because i want to use skipe but i cannot heard anything....i just can respond or call but no sound...i need to do some special settings or something?Please responde via PM because is kind difficult to find againt this threat and i dont have too much time due the university.Tnx a lot and sorry for disturb
I have the same problem as carter. Nimbuzz works, I can dial and call other skype users, but there's either no sound during the call, or there's a severe lag even on wifi. But chatting works great on Nimbuzz.

Anyone else having problems signing in? I put in my details, press sign in, accept the licence agreement and then it says "signing in", then after a few seconds I'm back at the login screen again.

Anyone else experiencing the same problem?

Any joy with skype after Eclair?

Hi,
According to skype blog, skype for android is available for all android phones with version 2.1 or higher
http://blogs.skype.com/garage/2010/11/skype_101_for_android.html
When I search for skype on the market I don't find it, when I try skype.com/m I get a message saying that my handset is not yet supported. However my X10 has 2.1 Eclair which by all means meet skype requirements. Any idea?
None at all... I installed Skype just fine. Maybe it's a geographical thing?
I'd stick the apk in my dropbox for you, but I can't remember where android stores them, and I can't extract the titanium backup one without the pc (I'm not at home right now).
EDIT: ok, figured out how (they're in /data, not /system) but is it allowed? Since it's a free app there should be no problem, right guys?

I guess so, I know many did put the .apk files here as long as it is free from the developer, we're against piracy
I've tried it as soon ac I updated my phone, but every time I start the app it says that it will not work with my task manager, so took it off

is there any fix for the market to make me able to find skype?
Just search for Skype apk online. That's what I did. You're right in that it doesn't appear in market and Skype's site says it's not available. I had that issue too.
Seems to take longer to sign in after 2.1 but works fine otherwise.
I used Appbrain and installed from my desktop browser using the web installer its so much easier and pushes directly to your phone no opening of market app required. As for Skype i find i like the way it works with the x10 i always have skype set to away on my desktop so when i sign in on my phone its kind of like a remote skype because it doesn't log me out from the desktop application.
Also from what ive noticed the notification sound when someone sends you a message only plays on the last device you logged into, so for example if i am on desktop Skype then later log in on my x10, Skype will mute desktop notifications and the phone notifications will play and vice versa kinda interesting.
In all i like the fact that we can make voice calls just wish we could accept video even though we cant send (no front facing camera, app limitations I'm guessing?). Skype is the whole reason I bought an X10 in the first place. Sorry for the long first post by the way, I just thought id add my two cents and experiences with skype for x10

Working version attached. testet on 2.1 AOSP b0006, but should also work with original SE firmware. have to say i don't like it that much. Design is really nice, but the old one was more intuitive to use.
I had it come through yesterday afternoon on my x10 just opened the market and there it was but I also own the htc desire which is 2.2 generic but that's still got the old market. So it nice to no the x 10 got somethin first for a change lol so sk_700 your theory is shot to ****

Yes same here. Very annoying. I had some apps that needed updating and when viewing that particular app, the 'update' button text is partially cut off at the top too!
I hope they fix it soon.

No google voice on Flyer

Got my Flyer yesterday and I'm having issues finding Google voice in the market. I was interested to see if others are seeing this same thing. I have the US Wifi only Flyer.
Yep, not there. Gues the thought is that with lacking a 3G radio, it is not wanted/needed.
its easy to install it, back it up on your phone "android phone" then email it to your self then install it. works great on my flyer.
or try this one.

Yea side loaded the app but I wanted to see if others saw this too. It just seems strange.
Like I said in a post before this 2.3 is in limbo for a tablet OS, between froyo and honey-comb apps. cant see certain apps on both sides on the market to download.
I have been side loading some of the tablet apps from the zoom, icona and asus trans forums that you cant get on the market because the spread out in duel panes in landscape mode as some tablet apps should.

Like which ones? I was hoping to find the CNN or pulse apps that have been shown off on the xoom.
Blaw most apps detect that the flyer is not using honeycomb so they revert to froyo installed devices screen size, which does not use double pain landscape mode or "optimized for tablet screens" this sucks till honeycom comes out for the flyer.

Compatibility Mode?
I think it's actually limiting apps based on location. I think the Market thinks we're in Europe.

Yahoo! Messenger

Hi!
I've been trying to get the Yahoo! Messenger with the Video Plug-in to work.
I got it to work one time, but afterwards not anymore.
Anyone have any ideas?
Someone made a solution on XDA (where else! ).
Since I don't have the PoV Mobii 10.1 at home for 1 week could someone test if version from this thread is working for him?
I see that the author mentioned that this method/apk should work on other devices too, so someone should test this on the Advent Vega.
You can also use ebuddy. Have you already deleted the files from that app? Then go to settings, applications, manage apps, click Yahoo, delete user data. Maybe that will help.
OK, got the tablet back and tested everything.
I wiped data/cache for the Yahoo messenger and plugin, but that didn't work.
I tried it thru manage apps in the settings and thru Titanium backup.
I did not try to reinstall because that's just pointless.
To reinstall two apps in order to get video calling for one time only? No way!
I also read the description for ebuddy on the market and as it seems it's intended only for text chat. Yahoo text chat works really great, but I don't want only that!
I see that Skype voice chat works great on my PoV tablet. I tried the modified Skype that enables the video chat option, but with that version of Skype I didn't even manage to log-in.
with the newest update on the market skype works with the vega!

Hi!
Could you post your experiences/bugs/solutions in the designated thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1230238
Guess this is a pretty buggy app on Vega.
What Android version are you running?
You tested both versions (market and XDA --> all links in my first post)?
