I have also been using this rom for several days. The only thing that would not work for me was Skype. However, I found a program under
www.nimbuzz.com which is a Fring type program that supports a number of IM and Voip services. I tried Skype under Nimbuzz and found that after a few minutes the Skype test call contact was available (under Echo123), and Skype worked both ways using my plug in headset.
Echo123 comes on and off-line and right now it is offline so I cannot try it again. I was able to call my one Skype contact that was online right now. I have noticed that if my contact is not online, and goes online, Nimbuzz does not recognize that until I exit and restart the program.
Nimbuzz does not show contact names very well, just numbers for my landline contacts. I am also seeing some press that nimbuzz cannot call landlines yet, only Voip contacts. Stay posted. At least they seem to have cracked the Windows 6.1 problem.
Perhaps this will work as a stopgap for some people until Skype and Fring get their 6.1 problems worked out.
