[droidrx]

not working for me..tried both ways. i am rooted..gb3.5...

Using adb on windows, run

adb logcat | find "HTCFrontFacingCamera"

It should show you the exception when it tries to load the camera.

@rickriego, did you have chance to try it on GB 3.5? is it working with ffc?

I have a modified version of ooVoo that works with the atrix's front camera but I'm not sure if I can post it here or not.

I believe though that ooVoo will very soon release the version that supports the atrix and the front camera. Their code actually includes the loader class for the front camera but for some reason, it is not yet included in loader array. Maybe it is still under testing.




where can i find the oovoo version that supports atrix front facing camera?

@rickriego, did you have chance to try it on GB 3.5? is it working with ffc?

I installed GB 3.5 last night to test if this mod works and it was OK on my testing.

It should work unless some files got corrupted (either the framework files or this mod's files).

 

[droidrx]

Updated the code to support more devices including Gingerbread devices, Samsung, LG, Dell, Huawei and those HTC devices not supported by YM front camera video call.

 

[rickriego]

no..i gave up on trying as i dont even use yahoo hardly at all...

Not at home near my Windows PC so I tried the CWM version on my Asus Transformer running 3.1 Honeycomb.

Did not work, tried it twice. Will try the ADB method when I get to my PC

 

[baseballfanz]

Got it working by extracting the jar file and moving it to system/framework setting
permission to 644 as per your suggestion. The camera is sideway however.
This is on a Honeycomb Transformer running 3.1

Awesome! Haven't tried it out yet because I'm not home, but sure hope it works. I wonder if it works with other apps... any chance of looking at Vtok and Ovoo?

EDIT: Confirmed, it works with Yahoo. I used the com.htc.hardware.twinCameDevice.zip method and not the CWM flash, but have no reason to imagine that the other method wouldn't work as well. THANK YOU THANK YOU!

seem to have some file path issues with the SGS2

I realized my ADB script is specific to Atrix. I updated the YMFrontCamADB.zip to get the partition and type mounted to /system and use the info in remounting it.

 

[shoktong]

Its now working fine!

*any chance anyone can work out why my image comes out inverted with my wife's ipad2 or my bro's pc?

Please help me. I am not much expert in adb. Is there a simple method to install the patch to work the front cam?

[droidrx]

which part did not work? the adb script or the ym loading the jar file or the jar file loading the ffc?

do you see the 4 button dialog when you do a video call or just 3?

I got the swap camera button to show when I make the call but the screen is black until I swap and thr back camera works fine. G2x

 

[droidrx]

try to run

adb logcat | find "FrontFacingCamera"

on your pc while your device is connected in debugging mode and then make a video call with the FFC. You can post it here or send me the log.

Also, if you have an application that shows the system info. I'd like to know what is in the "manufacturer" and and the "model". If you don't have any, you can try this one I'm using https://market.android.com/details?id=com.electricsheep.asi (System -> BuildInfos)

I am also using g2x and got black screen when flipping the cam on YM.

Manufacturer: LGE

by the way, how to do the adb logcat so that I can attach it here? Sorry for being noobie.
