Yahoo Messenger front camera is working now! :-)

[droidrx]

Hi kabayan!

Your phone must be connected to your PC and in debug mode before you execute the adb.

In the folder where you extracted YMFrontCamADB.zip, there is an adb.exe in there. You can open command prompt, cd to that directory and execute the whole command:

adb logcat | find "FrontFacingCamera"

 

[jose makalolot]

Here's what I get...

C:\Way Ligo\YMFrontCamADB>adb logcat | fi
nd "FrontFacingCamera"
V/FrontFacingCamera( 1857): [FrontFacingCamera.java:205:log()] info: ffcIndex 10
test (result = true)
V/FrontFacingCamera( 1857): [FrontFacingCamera.java:205:log()] info: isSupported
ends (ffcIndex = 10)
V/FrontFacingCamera( 1857): [FrontFacingCamera.java:205:log()] exception: java.l
ang.NoSuchMethodException: set
V/FrontFacingCamera( 1857): [FrontFacingCamera.java:205:log()] info: getFrontCam
era ends (camera is NULL)

Sorry, I have a bug in there :-D. Try to use this updated one

Let me know if it works so I can update the attachment in the first post.

Did it install properly without any error? It looks like it is still using the old code in your log. The exception for "set" should not be there anymore.

Try to uninstall first (select 2 in YMFrontCam.bat) and then install (1). Also, try to clean the log buffer using "adb logcat -c" before the "adb logcat | ...".

it works now... maybe we can try it now... heheheheh

another thing: if I remember well, there was an option before for speaker (on/off). If I am using wired or bt headset the sound goes to the speakers of the phone.

 

[droidrx]

i haven't seen that option as this is my first android phone. maybe that's a feature they have in older versions. the sound goes to the speaker first everytime I make a video call so i have to unplug and then plug my headset again.

Ok. I'll try that.
Update: it works for wired. I dont know how to do it with bt. Hehehehe.

By the way, is it normal for my video to flip when my phone is flipped?

There are some cases in mine that the video orientation is wrong when I try to rotate the phone. Users of other devices also reported that their video has wrong orientation from the start and some even experienced application crash when they try to rotate the phone.

Maybe because it was not designed to be compatible for our phones in the first place and yahoo only tested it for EVO and myTouch4G.

For now, the best thing to do is "don't rotate or flip the phone while doing video call" :-D

Will this be working on my mytouch4g kabayan? I'm currently on 2.3.3 sense 3.0. When the phone was on stocked ROM all is working fine. After flashing custom ym front video calling don't work anymore.

 

[droidrx]

Hi kabayan

For 2.3 and higher, it uses the standard FFC API so it should work regardless of the brand.

 

[mr.BeBoT]

Pare, can you please post what you did to help user:baseballfanz fix his orientation.

He posted here that his was originally sideways then said it was working correctly a few posts after with a thanks to you.

You can simply copy the jar file to system/framework by Root explorer (mount r/w before copying), and then verify the permissions of file is 644 (maybe it's automatically 644), reboot your phone and rock it Hope this helps

Maybe the person on the other side has the issue? Or the internet is too slow for both of you?
