To me this would be a killer mod for TB. Someone (expert) creating a script to that changes front camera to main camera. If you want to use the back camera, simply select secondary camera. I would think we could start using a lot of the apps out there right now with this mod.
A link one of you experts might find interesting on the subject,

Most apps I have use already have a switch in them.... the only time I can see you wanting to use the front one is for video chat...

Try Tango in the market. I have used it for video chat and it works fine.
I could probably write a script this weekend for it

Thanks for the support guys! Wireless cam is the main reason I bought the TB. I'm a big e-cig guy and would like to broadcast shows and reviews from remote locations.

This could be done once we get a custom kernel in our hands. Don't know about sooner.
No one has completely confirm it. I was hoping this could be done outside the kernel level.

What would really be nice is a way to link the front cam to a dummy bluetooth, an have it setup to where you press the button on your bluetooth an it takes a picture like a spycam kinda thing. would be awesome at work or just messing with people for fun LOL

Is not. My intention offend but really I don't see the deal with this,like others said, there are apps for video chat o video calling like tango I use that one and works fine is like the facetime in iPhone and even you can switch between cameras

I know it's off topic but I had to ask. What model do you primarily use? My main is a Joye eGo with a Super T drip tip. I tried the Ego-T kits, but each atty died within a week of use (i ordered two).
My interest in this mod is not for video calls but for web cam use. Example Droidcam. Wireless web cam.

Hey PC,
Sorry to hear about the ego-t. Been vaping for over a year. Use Cisco low res atty on the Rio Grand bottom feed box mod. Never a problem. My atty is 2 months old.
Thunderbolt and vaping go together like girls on trampolines

Any chance there is a working apk out there for Google talk w video? Tried searching, didn't find anything
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
I'm interested in this as well....
Last time I saw and used it, was on my 4G. It had to be flashed through recovery. I don't think an APK exists for it currently.
When it does come out though it is brilliant. I enjoyed it very much.
Bump, I won't buy it until gtalk with video.

i am so mad it didn't come with it! Qik quality is terrible and i can't even hear my wife audibly via the app. i am dying to get google talk to work with the 3d! i hope somebody gets an app or we get root soon.
Have you tried Tango for video calls?
I saw a "vtok beta" app in the market but didn't get a chance to test it...don't know if that'll help at all
Edit: just tested over 4g and 3g, it works but volume is a bit low and 3g was a little laggy but I expected that

hey guys.
back on my OG Evo 4G i was rocking a customized version of Vringo that I had whipped up. unfortunately it seems as if Vringo was pulled from the market and/or doesn't exist anymore.
I found a couple of apps, the best one so far is called Video Caller ID (free) and it seems to do what I want well. I have a very high bitrate .mp4 file and it looks amazing when I get a call. problem is the UI leaves much to be desired.
i've got the app on my desktop and will try to modify the layout and do some photoshop magic, but i'm wondering if there is already a decent (in features) and good-looking app that will do the same?
anyone else have a video ringtone app or like the idea of using one? let's talk about it.
thanks for any info you can share.
I too would like to know if anyone knows....

My problem is that when you get a call you have to answer twice,otherwise it would be ok .

thanks. i'm trying to move on from Vringo as it was pretty outdated even when it was out on the market. i'm trying to find something newer (and hopefully) better.
I think the one I have works nicely. i just need to do the themeing/modding myself, and don't have much time
Myxer is a great app for ringtones..

yeah what the heck is this about. maybe the app need a update for our phones
any update on this? I am having the same issues...can see other party but they cant see me.
update: searched the forums more and found this fix?
Its working now, you can change the build.prop file. (/system/build.prop)
Change the line ro.product.model=samsung SGH-i997 to
ro.product.model=SGH-T959V (no samsung in front) then reboot
not sure if this making this change impacts anything else though.

i find skype still works best on our phones but people have reported crappy battery life. I personally like ooVoo PC software better so I tried their android app but the I appear upside down to the other parties. So I reported this to ooVoo and apparently they said they will have an update by next week. I was surprised how quickly they replied to me and told me when they *hope* to have a fix.

Thanks for the tip. Tried with my wife's iphone and it worked right out of the box! The app is pretty rough around the edges in terms of GUI but I will take it!
When ever I try to do the camera demo on my phone it say no video found.
Why oh why did HTC make the option to watch the demo but not make a video?
By the way, the way you find the demo option. Is:
Go to camera, then hit menu. Scroll down to the bottom and hit tutorial, then click demo on bottom right side of screen.

I watched this video from my camera the first day I got the phone in November, 2011. I tried today and it is gone. Strange!
do you guys think that on the ICS update they are gonna get away with the amazing camera we have? just wondering man, when i got the g2x, and then it was updated to gingerbread they took off the nice camera 1080p recording to vanilla gingerbread camera 720p recording,
idk this just got me confuse, oh and by the way if you search on youtube tmobile that video will come up, idk now i havent tried
Checked it out 2 months ago or whenever I opened the box, it wasn't available.
It felt 'creepy' because it didn't seem right that a link from HTC placed on a $600.00 phone to YouTube was gone.
Things like that don't just happen.
The more I think about it, the Amaze is the twilight zone of phones right now, I really love the twilight zone.
"Twilight Zone" theme song is now in your head.
you're welcome.

Blackberry sems to be the only one with a reliable + official Facebook app from my experience.
And that phone is for dinosaurs.
Neither my iPod Touch 4 or EVO gets them consistently.
The facebook app is an embarrassment to that company. I truly can't believe they havent done something about it. Google+ has one of the best looking and functioning mobile apps I have personally ever used, fb should take notes.

The FB app sucked on the OG EVO. It's not the phone. It's ridiculous that a website of that stature has such a crappy app.
I agree, the app is so slow I usually just give up before the content is fully loaded and turn on my computer haha.
Slow as hell on my One X aswell, almost bought an s3 in a rage
You would figure for a multi billion dollar company they could do a simple app. It worked way better before they added everything. I normally go through the browser anyways. I don't need up to date notifications but if you did why not turn on text notification? I mean you get unlimited texts anyways.

Funny you mention that. I haven't noticed any ads on the mobile version and I figure they just use our data as "payment". Overall I kind of want to ween off of Facebook. I feel they sold out just at the right time.

Ww need a new social network. Every dog has it's day, and maybe Facebook has had theirs? Although it should be a network defined by it's users, not controlled by profit and exposure.
FYI, the facebook app for Blackberry is actually made by RIM, but with facebook's support. That's why it doesn't suck as bad.
Also, facebook's app on iOS (both iPhones and iPads) suck. Countless mistakes and bugs and they never update it either. I usually just end up using the mobile web version of it.
They have no real mobile strategy. That's why the stock is crapping out. If they had a plan to make $$$ off a mobile platform they might care about its quality and ability to draw customers for advertisers.

At least with Sense's Friendstream, Facebook at least seems functional (to a degree).
Google+ is great, just none of my friends are on it lol, but it does things Facebook wish it could do. I love the messenger on G+. While trying to use Facebook's, snail mail may be a more effective use of time lol.
Sorry for the bad quote, I wish the XDA app would work better with my Transformer :banghead:
