Welcome Huawei Ascend users!

Just download Tango or Fring. It is possible to do it, although not in the proper way:)

OMG!!!! I forgot all about Tango!!! You are SO right!!!! Thanks so much.I'm gonna get it now. LOL

Did you see my post where I said the fraud dept from my bank called me cuz of all the little strange charges on my card? :D

Lets start fresh:). You know you thought it wasn't possible in the first place. I am studying psychology by the way. Ok I admit you didn't say it wasn't possible, but you meant that in an indirect way.

OMFG MAN....

I never thought it was IMPOSSIBLE.....I just thought why the hell do it when you have no damn front camera....just please shut up

Tried both tango and fring they don't work so i guess ny is rite. Cuz they wont even load on da phone they found another way to make me get another phone s$%#

The camera on the Ascend is the biggest drawback to the phone IMO. Also, the inferior sound. I don't even care at this point (for me) if they get the 2.2. I'm going to get the IDEOS as soon as it comes out.

I dropped by the Optimus M forum last night to see how the camera is on there, because since my Ascend was free, I could easily upgrade, sell my Ascend and only pay a different of like 40 to 50 bux on the Optimus if I wanted to

Cricket announced it was going to get the new Optimus sometime this first quarter I think. I hear it's really nice !

Wow y'all went though. A major thing y'all funny and after all that. Still can't video call on this no good phone

Even with some of the inferior features of the Ascend, I still love it! For the $100 bucks I paid for it I consider it well worth the money.

It's going to hold it's value too. They are still selling used on ebay for around $150.

I think Huawei makes a great product!

I saw once sell for just around $180, that is CRAZY considering you won't get the rebate from ebay if the phone isn't BRAND NEW, yet people still bid like crazy on them.

I was shocked when I saw it actually. But then I guess you can't buy one online from Cricket or Metro unless you buy the plan too.

When I bought mine from Metro, I told them I did not want to turn it on until the following weekend, and they let me buy it and leave. :D They told me, well you will have to come back HERE to activate it, meanwhile when I was ready, I simply dialed *228, and easily activated it. They just want to make that extra $10 on the so called activation fee... meanwhile, if you buy a phone online from their site, there is no such charge.

You know the more I read about Huawei the more impressed I am.They are a really big company specializing in modems and such. They're just now getting into the handset biz in a big way.

Huawei is going to be a force to be dealt with since they're going to force the better known brands to lower their cost.

If only they added a flash to the camera and a better camera, they would of had a PERFECT product.

Oh that's funny! LOL

I was referring to online purchases in my post. At mycricket.com. They won't sell you a phone without a plan.
