Hello knrc389,

 

I do agree front face video conferencing is a neat feature!  Our community member MostlyALurker is accurate.  The Yahoo Messenger app only supports front-facing on the myTouch4G and the EVO.  You can submit feedback to the developer by choosing the app in the Market icon and by scrolling to the bottom and there is an option to email developer.

The Inc 2 does not yet have the ability to use Skype, but you can use Tango. There are a couple threads on this topic on this board.

The app description says that video chat is in beta and the supported devices are MyTouch 4G and Evo. So I would guess it isn't working for you because the DInc2 isn't a supported device.

try qik....not sure, but it's worth a try. there was also another thread where useres reported that tango worked. the problem with most of these is that they only do mobile to mobile......not mobile to pc.
