I cant get Skype to work either. seems we have a compatibility problem. I'm starting to think its WM 6.1 at fault, but i'm looking into it now!

Fring works awesome on my AP4 :-) I love it and it allows for me to use my bluetooth headset for calls :-) I have configured and tested all services (with the exception of twitter). It does have a strange hick-up in that it mutes my VOIP calls at the start, so manual adjustment is required, I also wish that I could group the services independently, but aside from a few little quirks, it is soo much better than skype ever was... it also allows for integrated phone call history, integrated dial-pad and chat.

Has anyone gotten SMS to work yet? one of my phone contacts is also in skype so it sets her default text messages to her skype account rather than via SMS.

I will play with it a bit more but it answers one of my biggest concerns about skype and it gets us working with bluetooth, as it should have been all along...

Thanks again and hope this helps...

Yes, it is annoying that bluetooth mutes when the call is made and answered... but hey, we got functional voice in skype, google talk etc. and even better Skype voice works over an EDGE connection without trouble. I am impressed.
However, the best quality calls are Fring to Fring calls.

I can't help you with the phone book integration, but maybe the fring fourm people can help.

Thanks for the post and for the tip on the application, I am sure that they will be improving upon the application in the future, I will continue to keep my eyes open for updates... If you have a link to an active user community for fring, let me know.

In the interim, I fully agree and am impressed with FRING :-)

Just a quick update, I have just been trying out the Full rom from Irus and it runs skype with no problems. As irus's rom is WM 6.1 it would indicate that the compatibility problem is not with WM 6.1 but with something else in AP 4.0.

Jay, thanks for the great news, please keep us posted on your progress :-)

from what pk explained to me... the roms that run skype are just ports of 6.1 not full 6.1

ap4 is a full 6.1 rom therefor it wont work

skype is incompatible with 6.1

There are known compatibility issues with skype and pk addressed this a few times.Check the ap4 thread by pawel.
edit: deactivate htc home and/or install the htc home from addond.Home is a major resource hog.

Im not convinced, skype runs ok on other 6.1 devices. still looking into it.
