Hello guys and gals,
Sorry for the delay.
Here is the Skype application file for Tattoo (.apk) file.
I tested it and it's working using SPQRom Froyo 2.2.1 through 3G and WiFi Connection.
When you first start the application and login it might show "Force Close" because Skype is not responding. Just click "Wait" until Skype download all your contacts.
After that use it as normal.
Here is the .apk file
Skype 1.0.0.659 - Newest Version
Have Fun!
i downloaded it from market
but voice chat is lagging on the tattoo
Working well
I tested voice chat using WiFi and its working really well.
Please post 1.0.1 version too...
I don't know why but I cannot find 1.0.1 anywhere. I was looking last night but I could not find it. I tried from skype.com/m but again the skype version downloaded was this one..
Are you sure that 1.0.1 is out?
1.0.1 has not come out yet. is there a leaked beta?
Downloaded it from the market. works good, takes some time at first to load contacts - if you have a lot, better check to show only online users.
Lacks settings. It would be great to be able to disable loading chat history. Good to have just in case.
According their official blog, Skype 1.0.1 is out.
http://blogs.skype.com/garage/2010/11/skype_101_for_android.html
Of course nobody can find it. According the fixes I think they forgot to change .apk file version. Because I had Skype for 1 month now and this version has all this fixes.

not working on mine either

I installed Gingeritis VIII and I like it. Very smooth!! One question, I don't see the VM icon? Is there an update or fix? Or am I just missing it?
Thanks
you need to install a gingerbread compatible version like this one
http://www.mediafire.com/?sk9bq9cgc0id8km
or just go to the market verizon has the original available
last time i checked the market one did not work for the thunderbolt (gave error during install experienced myself). reason i have read was since the feature is integrated with the messages on the stock rom.
I was just poking around and realized I am running 2.3.4 and Im pretty sure the last Market update we got was 2.3.6 on the OG EVO. Can anyone else confirm if their marketis not up to date as well? I also tried all the regular tricks to make it update and got squat
That's the 1st thing I noticed when I was using the phone. With CM7, I had market: 2.3.6, and with the 3D the version I have is: 2.3.4. I went into applications settings to see if I cleared the data it would automatically update after accepting the EULA, I have done that before, but the option to clear data is grayed out and clearing the cache didn't help either. I wonder why we're not getting the latest version of Market. Who else has this issue?
What's the difference?
Is not having the market from 2.3.4 to 2.3.6 an issue?
6>4, that's the difference! I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the actual app, or just the device being new, but the Market itself does not "support" the E3D on the developer side, something that some developers on the Unity forums pointed out:
http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/94...ation-Battleheart-Trial-Extreme-and-Samurai-2
"Sorry to hijack this thread, but it doesn't seem possible to locate Evo3D devices in the market back end?"
"Got the same problem, we had to block it on our Android games so far."

Im wondering if this is why certain apps are not showing. Thats the difference. Plus Im sure there were bugs in 2.3.4 hence the update
Certain apps are not showing because developers can target specific devices not to support now, rather than random hardware specs like it used to be. If the app is not showing up, then the developer selected it as a device that is not supported.
I've noticed at least 10 apps that show as 'not compatible' with my Streak, including the latest, XDA app, for example.
Question is: Why?
I have only modded the resolution to 180, but other than that, I'm running a stock and rooted ROM (351) with just a bit of bloatware stripped out. (Stage UI, etc.)
Can anyone give me an idea as to why apps that by all accounts ARE compatible show as being incompatible for me?
The main point is that I'm sure that many of these apps work for other Streak owners, just not for me.
The XDA app being a prime example of such. There must be a logical reason, but I don't know it. Anyone?
I am also on stock 351 and the XDA app shows up as compatible for me in the market. Did you change your fingerprint to get another app working, such as Netflix? I am at the stock 160 density.
The method that the market uses to determine compatibility is pretty poor when it comes to matching apps with compatible devices. You can try changing the fingerprint to another device.
Double check that you have the content filtering (maturity level) set to all, but that should not effect the XDA app.
I too found now that lots of the apps shows that they are not compatible with Dell Streak. Even some of the apps already installed won`t update because they are not compatible with Dell Streak now!
I tried to unroot Streak and now it is ok and at least apps already installed are again compatible. So try to unroot it first. Anyway, I needed root just to get rid of ooVoo etc.
I have official 351 and density set to 140

I can't function without root, but I suspect it might be the same problem, because I have the identical problem. Installed apps show as 'incompatible'... what a load of crap.
Thanks for the tip. I'll try it.
Unrooting attempt forked my system. I had to restore. Thank god for Nandroid
Can't unroot.
Which items are showing as not compatible with the Streak so someone like me, with the resolution untouched but the ROM rooted, can test things.

Many things which I already have installed show as incompatible, such as these two examples:
Drag Racing
XDA Forum app
QuickOffice Pro (which I own and purchased directly) is also listed as incompatible, but I have it installed and running perfectly.
I found an apk here for the Drag Racing app and it works. I'm now up to the latest version, but my Market app still shows that I need to update but says it's not compatible, but as I said, I already have the game installed and have already updated it to 1.1.0 via the apk manually.
There are quite few others, but I don't recall them all now.
None of those are showing as incompatible on my Streak. So the most likely culprit is the screen DPI change you made, since the DPI change is the only major difference between your Streak and mine. There are other possibilities such as a bugged Market APK or a corrupt flash of the ROM, but those aren't as likely.
I presume you have tried getting these apps through your PC?
I think it is just the root. I have DPI 140 (different from official 160 and even that is not standard for 800x480 screen) and I have device unrooted now and apps are compatible again (for example Appbrain was not compatible before and now it is ok).
When I last time had problem with this I wrote to developer of application and he wrote back that the app should be compatible with Dell Streak. So I wrote to Google support and they wrote that my device is rooted so they can't support it. So maybe Google is blocking some of the apps to the root users?
Donalgodon: sorry for your troubles with unrooting. I used Gingerbreak and the unroot function worked perfectly.
If I weren't rooted I might be inclined to agree with you. But, I'm rooted therefore something else must be causing the compatibility problem. Unlike you guys, I didn't change the dpi of the screen. The dpi change seems to be the common denominator here, and thus the dpi is more than likely the culprit.

They show as incompatible from the PC also. I reset the Market, but no love.

Hmmm... but I have different DPI then official (140) and when unrooted apps are compatible again and I still have DPI 140... But maybe another idea - I updated market manually. If I think of it, that was maybe the time when appbrain shows as not compatible...
So, does anyone updated Android market manually too?
I did not manually update Market, but it did it automatically to the 3.1.3 version. I'll strip out the DPI change later today and report back.
I had the same problem so I tried changing back to 160 using blade buddy, nothing happened, until I accidentally turned it off. After boot, I checked market and it was fixed. So I tried going back to 200 using lcd density (which is temporary until you do a full reboot), the problem came back. I did a reboot, now back to 160 and it was ok again. So I tried blade buddy again and set it to 200 and saved it, full reboot, and it's still fixed. I hope this will solve your problem too.

Just a follow up to my own OP...
I stripped out every mod I made and even replaced the original build prop from a backup I made when I first flashed the stock ROM.
No luck. Still the same apps show as incompatible with my device.
This may be one more motivation for me to dump the streak.
Anybody have any other ideas about what I can try?
I had problems with some of my apps not showing so I changed my fingerprint to 351, uninstalled the new market update, and froze the market updater. Using the old market without a problem and all my apps are available. HBO Go would not install with the new market, now it does. Running SD 191 perf 200 dpi.

How can I freeze the market from updating automatically using Titanium Backup?

First freeze market updater (I use Bloat freezer), then go to settings, manage apps, all apps, select market and then select uninstall updates.
You could also change market updater apk to bak
Just in case anyone hasn't seen this yet
http://rootzwiki.com/_/articles/download-android-market-update-3311-r94
That's where I read about it.(someone mentioned it in another thread also...sorry can't remember your name...ill edit if u reply )
Here is a direct download link also found at bottom of the rootzwiki article http://lts.cr/BDW_
I just installed it and so far it looks great. They have finally brought back the "top NEW free" and "top NEW paid" sections for those that.miss that. I know I did.
some new settings options and nice UI tweaks.
I haven't made any purchase/download yet though. Will updated this post when I do.
Hopefully google got it right this time
If you do this I would recommend making a copy of your current vending.apk in case you want to go back. I just used root explorer and copied the apk to my sdcard and installed the new market after that as normal.
Have fun
::::::UPDATE::::::
For all those who are cautious
I have successfully bought apps, updated apps, downloaded new apps, and also downloaded apps I had previously bought but hadn't had installed.
Also when you look at an app it shows you how many of each different star ratings it has.
I.e.-- 5stars:20 users
4stars:60 users
3stars:30 users
Etc..
Working smoothly all around. Much better than 3.1.5 or 3.1.3 imho
thanks man, will be uploading now!!!
I'm loving the new market. It's very polished now. The icons are now sized properly on the screen.
thx im loving the auto update
I upgraded last night and am still running into compatibility issues with certain apps ... ended up going back to trusty 2.3.6.
Is there anyone running build.prop edits (in particular, enhanced screen resolution) who has been able to get this version of the market working without any restrictions?

Yeah finally there is no lag when switching between the screens. But it's NOT faster than the old version. :/

I don't really mess wit build.prop other than vm heap, max window events, wifi scan interval.
and I have not once ever had a compatibility issue.
Did you send feedback about that to google?
They might have something you can do or may work on it for future market versions
