Again, it's pretty obvious you just don't understand how this works. It's application specific support for the PHONE. There is nothing on the phone, Android or otherwise, that makes voip possible or not possible. It's all in the app itself. The new hardware hasn't been out for very long, so give the APPLICATION DEVELOPERS time to update their software to support the device. It's the same reason some games don't work on the Atrix yet. It's not because Motorola decided not to support the game, it's because the game doesn't yet support the device.
Please stop spreading misinformation.
No sir. Its pretty obvious YOU don't know how this works.
If every VOIP app on the market does not work ONLY on the the atrix, but works well on every other phone i tested, and even honeycomb - then there is a problem specific to the atrix and NOT the app itself.
If it is just one single app that does not work - then it is an app issue.
In our case, ALL the voip apps are not working because Motorola changed something in the way they are routing the audio and using the Android standard audio API's that those app need to work correctly. Any app that is trying to access the mic or the earpiece fails on this phone either with stuttering audio, crashes or static noise. it is like that with every single voip app and i tested them all.
The atrix is not running some new version of android that these apps just don't know how to support or there is a new android API...no...this is 2.2 we are talking about here and i don't see how each and every developer can fix his app just for the atrix.
The only way i see this getting resolved is by a firmware update from Motorola to fix what they have changed and get the phone to work with normal android standards.
