Video calls

TheBazman

Is anyone able to make Video calls - have a new 3G phone but when I try to make a video call it immediately says that video calls not supported by the network (that being vodafone)

Cheers

I get that error message on the 3 network when I'm in a 3G area (or the phone I'm ringing isn't)

as kingambrose says you have to have 3g coverage. your phone will probably say 3g on it somewhere when it has coverage. on nokias is says it just below the signal indicator

You need to be in a 3G area. The phone you are calling needs to be in a 3G area as well.

oddly enough my fathers nokia E61 can do a video call anywere in the country 3G or 2G/2.5G if only vodafone offered any decent 3G services...

wish my 3 phone could do it

Thanks guys - its a bit hit and miss so - Is there somewhere to see a rough map of 3G coverage?

sorry to side step,, but are vodafone gonna introduce free msn with their 3g phones?

^^ vodafone and free dont go together so thats a no but im sure theres some way you could buy a bundle and just get a phone that could download the programme
but at the moment your best choice for msn is without a doubt 3

and you could look at three.ie for their coverage but its preety poor like its much better that what they show
preety much every town over 1500 in ireland has 3G coverage with 3
I believe its 85% of the population in comparision to vodafones 65%

you know ive had problems with that too and im certain i was in a 3g area cause it said so on the phone (plus it was in tallaght which is covered). i know the bloody thing works because my brother video called me. ah well probably just a fluke. i only really text anyway
