[freakylocz14]

People Boost Mobile DOES not offer unlimited for $50 they are lying to you. READ THE FINE PRINT

[Avatarblackwolf]

Seems like a pain in the ass just to get on the web with this phone.

My Blackberry from Boost Mobile is so much better & faster then this thing.

$60 dollars a month unlimited nationwide talk, text, web & e-mail.

All on the CDMA network

@Avatarblackwolf The BB on Boost has 3G, the X-tc does not. Virgin's BB also has 3G.

[PivotMasterFilms978]

i have this phone but ive never tryed this how much does it cost to download Opera mini.

[Kmux05]

it works its just that u did it wrong.....and im talkin about the myspace login for opera nini....it worked for me but then i figured that it costs much more than regular internet

:[

[popeye190]

I have an x-tc and am trying to download opera but it is saying access denied

[bamishaye1]

[AiricaLush1]

So you caint watch youtube videos ?

[jukebox818]

@67fordmustang67 you can look at more webpages

[m1nh2uan]

how do you backspace when using mini opera with your x-tc

whenever i hit the back button which should be backspace

it quits opera?

[jukebox818]

@m1nh2uan is it in the dilouge box where you typed in the address?

[LilB4LiFe64]

how much does it cost to use a browser on your phone?

[mrbeezuk]

$1.50 everytime you go on basically unlimited web for $5 a month

[bosoxrock94]

how much is it for internet per day on this phone?

[jukebox818]

@bosoxrock94 1.50 if your not on a plan

[lilcrazyaznboy]

@jukebox818 I'm confuse.. If it's 1.50 for only 1 meg.. Which is a better deal, the 5 dollar plan for 5 meg or 1.50? What does 1 megabyte means? How many web pages I can view with 1 megabyte? This is so confuse I'm about to shit myself.. They say virgin mobile go towards young ones, and people who are older than 20 will have difficulties using this phone.. I think it's true.

[Avatarblackwolf]

@jukebox818 For $30 dollars more you could have bought the Boost Mobile Incognito. Much faster web. The Incognito runs on Sprint's CDMA network, 3G web.

Youtube & Myspace have no problem, no need to go outside for better web.

$50 dollars a month unlimited nationwide talk, text, web & e-mail.

Get rid of the X-tc & get the Boost Mobile Incognito.

[Lavdim175]

[Yomk2008]

how can you get unlimited data?

[cashmoneyyard]

Opera mini works faster than the regular virgin mobile web browser. I just downloaded it yesterday and it works very well. Only thing my data finished up fast though. Its better to get the unlimited data for about 10 dollars. I had the 1 dollar 50 cent data.

Check out mini opera its pretty cool to have on your phone especially if its a prepaid phone like the virgin mobile x-tc.

[IndianaVictor]

does it cost anything

[cashmoneyyard]

you just have to buy data. to surf the opera mini web. its the same data u buy when u surf the regular phone web. hope this helped

[masterslayersp]

wow opera works amazingly!!!

[dirty3rd1111]

Can u get ringtones by using opera mini??

[jukebox818]

no you have to buy them through virgin mobile or vxl.

[sushiboy805]

or put them ona sd card

[megjen6]

ohkay, on the virgin mobile x-tc.m2000..can u recieve a pic message and it "moves" will it move on ur wallpaper or does it stay not moving like on the wilcard.? plese anyone answer ASAP!

[beanpeas]

How is the hearing of your xtc i heard its bad?

[Filender]

Don't expect it do alot guys. This is like the best you can get for a prepaid phone =D

[DestynProductions]

can it facebook chat???

[wesxxunderwoodx]

oh wait.. no it doesnt! sorry. it only uses about 2mb..

:)

[heyjamila]

ty..... u're video really helped me :)

[jordanumba1]

great vid. im getting this phone tomorrow!!

[6667779311]

It should work on the arc. Save opera mini as a contact (page 1). Click option than launch web. If not , try the Skweezer browser. It's not as good as the opera mini, but it uses less data. It is better than the wap browser. You do not have to download anything.

[ttorin14]

willl the mini opera browser work on the arc?

[6667779311]

To get on the internet on any virgin mobile phone, you have to BUY data first. Check your phone, or the virgin mobile website for prices.

After you buy data, everytime you surf the net, they will subtract how much data you use from your account.

The opera mini is just a very good mobile browser.

[BABiiTHUGG17]

Does it cost , when you go on oprea mini , the intertnet access? or do you just pay once to go on to VXL and then download the oprea mini , and then you dont pay to use it or ... you pay everytime you use it.. haha i hope that makes sense !

[OrangeD00D]

it still uses data buy opera mini will use less because it uses compression techniques.

[starlitdreamzz]

Great review! :) You seem like a bright kid! Great video quality too!

[jukebox818]

thanks so much :)

[mc2esr]

so after you download opera mini do you still have to pay for internet to use it?

[biomax95]

can u watch vidz on youtube wit it?

[jukebox818]

no it can't.

[biomax95]

so eats da point of youtube? on it

[mjaaalmeida92]

can you use aim on mini opera

[jukebox818]

you could probably use aim express.

[UnscrewedWheat]

meebo works =)

[Pilito51]

what about gmail off of google

[VuidoT22]

You know what ?! I just thought of something.Sense this phone has the cability to download a program such as opera mini,should'nt it be able to download like an alternate ACTUAL media player? Because when the blackberrycurve(I know, two very different manufacturers)first came out it had no media player and you had to download one or waite for an update. So can it?

[Pancakeman4787]

if i have the 1000 message plan will it take away a message if i send a message on aim?????

[UnscrewedWheat]

yea

[Pilito51]

yep

[Pancakeman4787]

so wat ur saying is that even if i have the 1000 message plan it will not take away a message?????

[6667779311]

First. Target has a sale where if you buy the x-tc, you get a free 20 dollar gift card this week.

I buy the 20MB for 10 dollars a month. I use it daily on both the opera mini, and wap pages. It's good for 30 days.

The daily rate sucks, you feel like you are on the clock. If you decide to download a big page, you will use up all of your data.

If I was you, I would go for the 5 dollar for 5MB. It's good for 30 days.

The opera mini is like having a fast mini desktop on your phone

[Pancakeman4787]

i meant THE 1000 MESSAGE PLAN on my previous comment!!!!

[Pancakeman4787]

so wat ur saying is that even if i have the 1000 minute plan it will not take away a message?????

[Pancakeman4787]

also, if u have unlited text, or the 1000 or the 200 message plan, u dont have 2 pay right, it will just take away a message. ALSO, u dont have to pay for internet wen using AIM, right???

[jukebox818]

you don't pay per message when your on a plan, and when you use aim you don't pay for the internet you pay per message unless your on a texting plan.

[Pancakeman4787]

thanx a lot :)

i'll subscribe :)

[Pancakeman4787]

also, if u have the fone open as if u were texting, and then u turn the fone the long way with the keyboard still out, will the screen automatically turn with it???

PLEASE ANSWER BAK, I WANT 2 KNOW IF THIS FONE IS WORTH GETTING!!!

SO FAR I THINK IT IS!! :)

[jukebox818]

yes the screen does flip

[Pancakeman4787]

PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. wat is data???? is it memory???

2. if i were to use the internet for like 10 minutes a week, how much "data" (MB) , do u think i would use??? can my data expire/ does it have an expiration date???

PLEASE ANSWER THE PREVIOUS QUESTIONS, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jukebox818]

okay so 1.50$ gets you 1mb which will expire after 24 hours whether you use it all or not. As for the data use it depends how big the web pages you go on are.

[Pancakeman4787]

wat do u mean buy data? wat does it cost?

so u can surf the web 4 free?

[6667779311]

To use the internet on any virgin mobile phone, you have to buy data from them first.

The opera mini is free to use, and free to download. You only have to download it one time to your phone. It's just a browser.

After you buy data, whatever data you use while using the opera mini or the wap browser to surf the net, will be subtracted from your data account.

[Pancakeman4787]

so, do u have 2 pay wen u are on the internet???????????????

also, let me get this straight. it only cost to download mini opera

[6667779311]

My bad. 5 dollars only gets you 5MB of data. It use to be 10MB. That sucks. But it still a better way to use the opera mini than the 1MB for 1.50. I use both browsers depending on what I need.

Checking e-mail, usa today, weather, I use the wap browser. I save wap websites as contacts. Click options, launch web, that will take you to the site in seconds. Try yahoo

You only have to download the opera mini browser one time. After that it is saved under the My Stuff icon (My other stuff).

[6667779311]

Dude. The opera mini is free to use, and a better browser than the wap browser that comes with the X-tc. But it eats up data quick. You will be downloading the desktop version of web sites.

Virgin mobile charges you for using "Data" everytime you use the opera mini. Do not use the opera mini with the 1mb for $1.50. You can download one site and be out of data in a second.

I love the opera mini. I suggest you pay the 5 dollars, and get 10MB. It's good for one month.

[Zao125]

wait so let me get this straight, it costs u the 1.50 to buy the data pack and then you download the opera mini browser and the mini browser does not cost $ to use.

[jukebox818]

no, it costs 1.50 for 1 mb to start with, every time you want to use opera mini it will cost you 1.50 if use all of your 1 mb or one day after you last bought the 1 mb.

[jukebox818]

yes

[Zao125]

so its free..?

[jukebox818]

no, you have to pay.

[jonnyhubleyboi]

thanks man im thinking about gettin this phone and ill be web browzing

[Zao125]

so internet is free and is it like wifi

[brucetrunks]

i tryed streaming it man but it says streeming not supported

[keyblademaster235]

does mini opera charge you while your surfing the web with it?

[jukebox818]

it doesnt charge you separately but you do have to pay to get onto the internet to use it.

[zanep12345]

how much is internet

[jukebox818]

1.50 for 1 mb. but you can buy monthly data plans.

[6667779311]

Virgin Mobile has put the opera mini on the Virgin XL. So you can download it to your wildcard easy. It eats up data, but it's worth it if you surf the web on your phone. It's like having a full browser.

The only thing, after you use the opera mini browser, cut your phone on and off to keep it from locking up. For some reason my wildcard locks up after using the opera mini browser.

[KingOfKingsJ]

Thanks, I just saw it. Virgin Mobile Rules. Just got unlimited text Monday April 21 for $10. Bet you cant find that anywhere else.

[Zao125]

can you get that with a XTC?

[Zao125]

does it cost to use the opera mini browser?

[Pinwormx]

Looks good. I can care less about seeing grainy Youtube on a tiny screen though.

[jukebox818]

i agree, i just got alot of people asking me to show it.

[metsfan145]

Does mini opera work on the wildcard?

[jukebox818]

i think so.

[KingOfKingsJ]

THANKS YOU FOR VIDEO!!!

[10JECT10]

I saw your vid on some MOFOS channel!!! cant remember who. But he stole IT!!!! Luv ur reviews by the way!!!

[jukebox818]

lol thanks someone filed a complaint and his channel was terminated due to copyright infringement. hahaha

[xIVYCx]

hey like whn yu use aim can yu update yur status and see yur friends status?

[jukebox818]

you were never able to on aim with the wildcard so i'm guessing probably not.

[6667779311]

Opera mini does eat up data, so I only use it when I need the actual web page.

Also, I don't download the whole page, just the part I need. which saves data.

Eating up data on Opera Mini is nothing compared to if you wanted to download a video on youtube.

[jukebox818]

lol yeah

[YellowGrenades]

Someone stole and posted this video of you. Just thought I'd let you know.

[jukebox818]

really...son of a bitch! lol. wheres it at?

[danman51992]

the guy that stole ur video is named burijas60ea and he added what looks to be a porn site to the beginning of it. and its the same video as this.

[jukebox818]

oh my, crazy youtube pervs. thanks for letting me know ill report it or something idk lol. apparently alot of people have seen it..?

[6667779311]

The easiest way do find the opera mini browser on your phone is to save it as a contact (web site)

mini opera com, click options, then launch web.

Jukebox, When you are on myspace on the opera mini, click on the log in, it will be shaded blue?, then you will see a box that says enter text. type in you user name, then click option, then click the o.k. box. Do the same with your password.

that's how the mini browser works. It took me a few times to figure that out.

[jukebox818]

yeah it would let me log in the problem was it was eating up all my 1 mb so i just decided to go on the actual mobile page.

[z7aj]

hey love your vid's on the phone waiting on mine to come. but does it group all the text meesg together or are they all one by one. and can u tell who sent it before u hit the messg.

[jukebox818]

thanks so much :) it does put all of the messages you receive in your inbox together if thats what you mean, but you can't see who sent you what message without clicking on each individual one. Hope that helped and please subscribe :)

[BlackDrumm3rKid]

how long does the 20mb last(i wanna c if i should get a data plan)

[BlackDrumm3rKid]

and r u using myspace on the mini opera

[jukebox818]

i tried to use myspace through the opera mini it didnt work as well so go to m . myspace . com [without the spaces] on your phone to access it. If you use the mini opera browser the 20 mb should last you a while because it condenses the web pages.

[jukebox818]

Make sure to watch it in HQ for the best quality possible :D

[darklion53]

all i wanna know is if it can take videos? i am guessing not knowing virgin mobile trying to make the phones not to amazing

[jukebox818]

no it cant.

[mikeymike325]

just get the shuttle if you want video recording

[dogstar4ogd]

do you have to download the mini every time?

[jukebox818]

no, once its on there its on there. It saves under "my other stuff" on the phones main menu so all you have to do is click on it and it'll load for ya :)

[skarcrow1991]

does this phone ave virgin xl software on it?

[jukebox818]

yup

[Lucky4Adi]

So the phone does have 3g network. Didn't really see/hear but can you watch the youtube videos on it?

[jukebox818]

nope

[mikeymike325]

the phone is 3G, just not EVDO, unlike the shuttle which has EVDO

[FOAxIIO]

Are you makinq another video about the phone soon ? This didnt really help me since im not planning oon using the internet too much.

Your videos rock thouqh,

Keep up the qood work =P

[jukebox818]

i just put another one up.
