Save it and while your mounted to the sd go back to the root of your sd card and copy the cricket_web_mms_v10.zip on to the sd then unplug your evo.

Dial ##3282#

goto advanced
scroll to RTSP proxy address and HTTP PD proxy address and change them to 0.0.0.0
hit back twice and now try youtube it should work!

Minus the rom would this procedure be pretty much the same on say a Motorola Droid X?

Kind of. Motorola is a little different, The big differences are the APNs would have to be imported differently and You would have to flash NV items to get 3G. Oh and you have to use HW_VSP to get it in to cdma ws or qpst. But it is basically the same. I know how to do droid X's of you need help

I am getting a droid 2 global so I will make a tutorial for Motorola devices next.

as as far as HTC devices running Sense this will be pretty much the same.

Hope this helps

You wouldnt have the settings for pocket communications would you. I know they merged with cricket but service still remains pocket for the time being. Thanx in advance.

I think

Ok I followed your instructions to the letter and I cant get any internet... My 3g icon will flash for a second and that is it...
