The Cricket WAP Proxy Thread

[She did WHAT !]

Hey, all!

Just thought I would take the liberty of starting a thread devoted to all things WAP/Proxy for Cricket.

The two main goals of this thread are:

--Free WAP (without having to pay the extra $5 per month), and
--Unrestricted browsing (to bypass the Error 403 Forbidden message you get when trying to enter your own URL)

So please share any of your tips, suggestions, solutions, etc. if you have gotten free WAP to work with Cricket.

yes! ive been trying to figure this out since the day i got the text message saying that internet is availbe for the razr can somebody pleaseee find a solution to this problem

Cricket will provide a solution to this problem themselves.

You are currently using Phase 1 of the internet rollout on Cricket. It has limits.
Phase 2 will be launched shortly within I think 30 days or so and that will open up browsing to any site.

As it sits now you just use Google to get anywhere.

no last i heard we are in phase 2. phase 1 was only for employees of cricket and was data card sending to test the network. phase two is what we have right now and phase three will be full unrestricted browsing which should come out soon.

I'm a big fan of homebrew.

But still, that leaves free WAP proxy. Wish I had my computer setup handy with the KPST or I'd be on it now...

I've heart this before. How do you use the Google trick?

*EDIT: Duh! Nevermind. And for those of you who DON'T know; you simply choose Open Page from the Menu, then enter http://www.google.com. From Google, you can search and open ANY page.

Maybe in your market. Here we never called it phase one for employees. Same thing though. It's limited now but wont be soon.

has anyone confirmed that there will be unrestricted browsing? (really i' curious) i haven't heard anything yet other than that there will be a web based store and more content accessable through the browser. you'll notice that cricket just calls it mobile web and never refers to it as internet. we can be hopeful though...

[pinspeed1]

As far as I have been informed there will be unrestricted browsing. I'll see if I can conform this on Monday.

Any page you can open through google you could open by going to directly. Plenty of pages you can't open going through google.
