Newer build Skype v2.1.0.46 v10

builds REQUIRE Android 2.3.x!

Basic features:
- Works with devices with no camera, incompatible CPU (no video-calling of course!)
- Works with devices with only one camera
- Works with devices with 2 cameras
- No autostart by default (you can select if you want Skype to start on boot // if skype keeps autostarting randomly, disable skype contacts' sync through Skype settings!)
- Exit button!
- Colorful status icons at notifications bar
- Bluetooth audio (while in-call tap options key and then "Toggle BT Audio". You need to have an active connection with a BT headset first, of course!)
- Camera flash support (just tap "Toggle Flash" under in-call options menu!)
- Some other under-the-hood fixes (ringtone follows ringer rules, vibration follows sound profile rules, vibration works even on normal ringer mode, speaker toggle under in-call options menu)

Has a new settings screen, ADVANCED SETTINGS, where you can customize things!
Just press the options key on your device and then tap Advanced Settings.

To get video-calling, if it's not enabled by default, just check "Enable video calling" in Skype settings!!! If there's no such option in Skype settings, then use the "Force-enable video-calling" toggle in Advanced Settings

Video-calling is ONE-SIDE LANDSCAPE ONLY!!!

If you don't see some of the settings below, they're not supported on your camera/device.
(Unsupported focus/other modes may lead to black camera image, just pick another or revert to "Default"!)

Additional settings available:
- Force-enable video-calling, will force Skype enable video-calling function
- Force-enable both cameras, for Galaxy Tab P1000/other devices - needs testing
- Keep screen alive, will prevent screen from going off when in audio-calls
- Avoid setFPS, fix for some users with black image on their cameras
- Use valid preview surface, fix for some users with black image on their cameras (for example Droid 3 users)
- Use fixed camera IDs, for users that their phones detect both cameras as rear-facing or both as front-facing
- Flip incoming video-image, will flip (mirror) incoming video feed!
- Autostart on boot, will start Skype when your phone boots up
- Enable verbose logging, will force Skype log more information
- Herotab/Dropad FC fix, for users of this tablet, fixes FC when tapping video-call button

Camera settings
-- Camera resolution picker (Black camera image or zoomed image? Try "Force 320x240"!)
-- Focus Mode
-- Color Effect
-- Scene Mode
-- White Balance
-- Rotation (will rotate your camera image - thanks to droidrx)
-- Flip image you see
-- Flip both image you see and send

Audio settings
-- Ringtone picker, choose your own sound for incoming calls!
-- Ringtone picker, choose your own sound for incoming calls!
-- Notification sound picker, choose your own notification sound!
-- Disable vibration entirely
-- Disable sign-in/out vibration
-- Notification vibration pattern, customize vibration!
-- Disable sign-in/out sounds
-- Prefer Bluetooth Audio, will automatically try to enable BT audio when a call is answered
-- Force speaker off after skype calls, if your speaker stays enabled after skype calls
-- Use MODE_IN_CALL, for devices with audio problems (like ZTE Blade)

You need to uninstall skype app, then install patched APK, unless you're already running one of patched builds!
If you have force-closes or issues, try wiping skype app data using Titanium backup and reinstall.

Changes compared to v09:
~ Added "Use valid preview surface" option, fix for some users with black image on their cameras (for example Droid 3 users)
~ Added "Prefer Bluetooth Audio" option, will automatically try to enable BT audio when a call is answered
~ Fixed crash when ending call while using BT audio
~ Fixed crash in Advanced Settings
~ Rewrote/optimized parts of code

Changes compared to v08:
~ Added "Force-enable both cameras" option
~ Added "Disable sign-in/out vibration" option
~ Removed "Enable LED flash" option and moved it into in-call menu as a toggle!
~ Cleaned/re-wrote bluetooth audio and other parts of code

I can login first time. Next time I login, exit and neverending "connecting" icon.

Backflip 2.3.4


Same as I had with x.x.x.47 happens again but advanced settings doesn't cause force close anymore but this is useless because I can't login anymore.
Waiting big Fix and going back to working market version...

Anyone has tested Skype with Samsung Galaxy TAB (Android 2.2). To me, the video doesn't work at all. It's always giving a black screen. :(
Pls share your experiences.
