Video Chat app to pc - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

So are there any video chat apps that let us use our unrooted DINC2 and talk on the other end to a pc?? I've looked and found tango and qik but neither offer a pc app
Ideas?

Are you rooted

Skype does that. Just tried the hacked version on an unrooted dinc2 with no problems.

so the only apk I have come up with that is supposed to work with DINC2 is listed below, but it didnt work. It begins to install and I get an error saying install failed
Droid-Life Download Mirror for Hacked Skype 2.0
Any other links to hacked Skype for an UNROOTED DINC2?
Thanks in advance!

Thats strange...it worked for me. You are running Gingerbread, right?

Yeah I did the OTA last week to gingerbread. So is that the same link you used then? If not, could you share your link or apk?

Sorry, cant upload it or post a link...forum rules.
I did a google search and got it - its called SkypeThunderbolt.apk

Did the Google Talk update not come with your gingerbread update? The new Google Talk allows video chat.

Pretty sure the google talk update is for 2.3.4 and the update was to 2.3.3

To OP - why don't you want to root? Just wondering.. I've rooted and using cm7 right now and skype works pretty nicely on it. I installed google tall update but haven't had a chance to try it out yet.

There is a way to install the video chat capable version of talk on 2.3.3, but you need root
Do a search in the android market place for talk 1.3 and it should be the second item found.
Its called:
[root] Talk 1.3 Installer by BRAINWASH STUDIO
I tried it last night and it works well

To be honest I'm new to the android world and I am fine with what I have. I like the feel of Sense, and from what I hear there isnt any ROM that has Sense and works very well.
Plus once you root, isnt it pretty hard to go back to stock?

There are two roms that I know of that are exactly the same as the stock gingerbread with sense and one that is stock froyo, im running the gingerbread one, same as over the air update, minus some Verizon crap u can put back on if u wish, and I can do so much more with root, and I'm having zero issues or problems.

In that case would you mind sharing the gingerbread ROM ? Also, in regards to rooting can I use the unrevoked method, or is there an easier better way?

[Q] Cant Download Skins after 2.3 Update

I jus updated my phone this morning and since then i lost the skins i previously downloaded from HTC Thunderbolt threads... I am able to download the .apks but they dont show up as one of the options to set for my phone. can anyone help me out?
Did u install them after download
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA Premium App
I uninstalled my downloaded skins and reinstalled them but they still won't show up, and to add insult to injury pdaNet is no longer working for me. I'm starting to wish I had rooted instead, now I can only wait until some one puts out a root for DI2 GB. :/
Ya, I've tried reinstalling them and still nothing...

New market update

New market update confirmed and coming soon according to Google. I think it looks pretty awesome. People are already yelling about the WP7 comparisons, but I think its pretty slick.
I think it looks quite smart. Bring it on
yup its very pretty, so us rooted users wont be able to rent movies?
Here's the new update.. ....courtesy of loxdev.

Mine was choppy and didn't display images till i rebooted. then it worked just fine.
also if you're rooted you can try to wipe market data in titanium backup and reboot. or wipe cache and reboot and try that.
Works pretty dam good on non-rooted stock.
Video is nice and smooth. Couldn't really tell I was streaming on mobile data. (Which was probably 4g)

dang! Im running the pyro rom but cant get this to install. it just says "Application not installed" anyone has any ideas how to fix this?
Anyone having issues updating apps? I've had 2 apps now show up in the 'update' heading, but when u click thru to the app the top dialogue boxes are 'open' and 'uninstall', as if that page doesn't recognize that there's an update.
Once 2 apps were available for updating, the "update 2" button comes up and it allows me to hit it. 1 of the 2 updated. the other still won't. Tried wiping Market data and rebooting, no luck. bleh.
UPDATE: Well after doing several reboots and etc. etc., I just simply went back to the file (From this thread) and re-installed the market again. Now the 'update' button shows up! Not sure what I did but it works now.

but i went ahead and did anyway.
Will I still get this if rooted. I would rather not install an apk when it comes to the market.

well it works fine, although i really hate the new layout.
it also bothers me that it now shows results for movies and books. (wtf!??!)
with the new one is it possible to go back to the old one?
It is possible. I just did it. Go to manage Apps. Find market and hit uninstall. It will remove the update. I liked it but it wouldnt show all of my Apps in the my Apps section.

It kinda has a Google + feel to it. It must be what icecreamsandwich is going to have and that's why the movies and books.

[Q] No Google Talk Video Chat?

Just picked up the device. No Google Talk video chat? Only Qik!?
you can certainly download the apk and install it
it's floating all over XDA forum, just google it
i have the new apk and to install it i woud have to uninstall the old one but i dont no if i uninstall the old one the new one might no let me install
I am pretty sure root is required for this, which we do not have yet.
Root would be required correct? Qik isn't horrible by any means. But google isn't certainly better.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
You would need root to install the apk plus the library file that needs to go into /system/lib .
yea u would need root u cant uninstll the old one and when u try to install the new one u cant because its already on the phone so i tried root explorer and u cant do it that way the system has read only
Google Talk Video Chat
Hey guys,
My friends epic 4g touch has a video chat feature in the Talk app. I checked my app, and it didn't have that feature. I did a quick search and saw that it was an update that came with 2.3.4. We have 2.3.5....
Any ideas?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
You can use VTok on android market. Tried it and it worked fine for a while. It then froze up. Qik sucks.
There is a new one I was reading about somewhere called ChatOn, it is in the Marketplace I think... at any rate, you can chat across platforms, like SGS2 to IOS for instance. Have not had a chance to try it yet.
Got Root, now,,
Anyone find an apk that works with our phones?
Really need this

You have to manually install it because supposedly it is not "compatible" with our phones even though 2.2.16 version work fine. Anyone have a download link?
I saw that, but it didn't show up in my apps yet.
google search for the file name then throw "download" in the search box after the name... you'll find it.

Uploading while editing video info
I searched the forum to try and find an answer, with no luck. My main question is why can't we find the youtube app in the market, or update it without manually downloading an APK. I am running stock rom, no root, and I am on version 2.1.6. Clearly there has been several updates to the app since the version I have. I am just wondering why the newer versions are "incompatible" with our phone? I mean isn't this suppose to be the latest and greatest phone that Sprint has to offer?
Not working. Any ideas?
I installed this APK and it looks great, but it doesn't work....loads a video forever!! WEIRD. I rebooted and nothing. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
