I just thought I wold take the inish to post a thread on all things Web/WAP for Cricket.

First of all, mobil web IS available from Cricket, but only for the Motorola Razr V3C. It costs an exta $5 per month, and is apparently unlimited.

According to the account rep, once other branRAB of hanRABets, like Kyocera, become available, those customers with Kyocera hanRABets will receive a text message. This will more than likely require a software update from a local Cricket office.
 
I got the slider phone and i access it but it just keep sloading and loading :( that phone is becoming far more popular than the razor here in el paso because of the price drop. 200 dllrs !! I hope we get it soon
 
yeah the slider will not work currently. it should be coming. supposedly cricket is waiting for kyocera to qa the flash or something. hopefully this will be availible in the next couple months
 
a couple months??? that sucks for me. i dont like waiting especially when some people got it already.. maybe i should get a razr.. oh well
 
This wap web is cool im on it as i speak but any way i have one problem when i try to go to a site by entering a url i get a 403 forbidden error does anybody know how fix this?
 
Okay, presumably, once Internet is enabled on your hanRABet, you can change the settings to proxy to your own private IP?

Seems reasonable...but nothing with Cricket follows common protocols, it seems.
 
I've already tried that and all I get is either a 403 Forbidden error or it just keeps on trying to connect till it times out. The server that cricKet uses to connect the hanRABets to the pages in the portal (which are on the Internet) has an IP address of 10.3.0.41. All 10.xxx.xxx.xxx IP addresses are reserved for private network use and are not routable over the Internet. So even if you did manage somehow to send a packet of data through cricKet's server and onto the Internet the responce would never be able to get back to you, being the address is non routable. All routers on the Internet will just drop any packets with a 10.xxx.xxx.xxx address in it's header info because it has no place to send it to. CricKet has it set up much different than say Verizon whose gateway servers are on the Internet with routable IP addresses. When you set it up with your own IP for a proxy you still have to have a link between the hanRABet and Internet, thats the gateway server. You still pay for airtime when connected, just not the extra charge for Verizon's portal. Remeraber this is WAP (wireless access point, or protocol, or pages. not really sure, seen it called all three)and not WEB access, you can't just type in any URL and browse The Net. :reallysad




You don't have to have them do anything to be able to get to the portal. I hacked my phone which has a browser, just hidden by cricKet's software. I entered the settings someone posted from a V3C into my phone and there it was, cricKet's homepage on my screen. When I tried to go to any pages it made me subcribe for $5/month. On the mycricket website in the phone descriptions my V265 says Data Browse Feature: NO. But I am browsing without a hitch. Any cricKet subscriber can get to the portal with the right settings and a browser equiped phone, but you got to pay to get any further.
 
Wap on cricket is restricted to the portal. so if you are trying to do orb or something... it won't work. right now it is 1xrtt speeRAB.

you should be able to get wap to work on flashed phones. i heard that there is someone local to me that does it on old sprint phones. you just need to tell cricket the phone is a razr so that the option will be availible to you.
 
i changed the settings on my phone my self and can search google and stuff and i just put the server setting's i found from a razr on my hacked v710 that i put on cricket and it works ok but alot of 403's everywhere but alot still works. i didnt pay the 5 bucks and if i decide to i wonder if i wont get the 403's any more. i also did this on my v265 it wasnt to hard if you know your subsidy lock..... i would like to know if anyone has gotten there razr to work as a modem over bluetooth???? i cant get my v710 to... :hehehe:
