Re: Need Assistance with Palm Pre on Cricket Network
That should work, but in even in Preware, if you have the Palm Catalog as a source... It still won't let you install any of those apps. I believe you can install any others though.

Thing is, with the Cricket "ROM" that's being sold, one of the bugs is not being able to setup a Palm Profile. I have read that there is a work around, but it's not so easy. Basically, you need to flash a WebOS that bypasses activation, use Wifi to create a Profile and then reflash the Cricket "ROM"... Problem with this, is that you have to make/find a Meta Dotored WebOS, AND have access to the Cricket "ROM", which is being sold for $200 I believe.

I guess another option would be to see if anyone has a Pre that isn't flashed, and see if they would mind doing a full erase, and let you create a profile from that phone. My profile I created when the Pre first came out works just fine on my new Pre that is flashed to Cricket, so that should work as well.
