You can use Facebook Mobile on Cricket Phones
If your annoyed and searching the internet on how to get your Cricket Wireless phone to access your Facebook account and send status updates and pictures to your Facebook account via SMS ..then look no further.

Although, Cricket is not listed as an available carrier for the official Facebook SMS or Facebook Mobile option in less than 5 minutes you can get one touch/press updating to your Facebook account enabled for your Cricket Phone.

By using the Facebook option of email updates combined with your cricket text messaging you can text your updates and pictures just as you would have via Facebook Mobile!

This isnt a hack or a trick its just another way to get the job done that is equally as easy to do on your end.

How to set up your Cricket Phone and Facebook
Step 1: Find your Facebook email address.

Every Facebook user is given a Facebook email address - its a secret, randomly generated email , every message sent to the address is autoposted to your facebook wall.

Find Your Facebook email:

The link above will bring your Facebook Mobile page up in Facebook (make sure your logged in)

You will see your email address on the right, it will look something like this:

Copy this address down for your self

Set up a New Contact in Your Phone :

In your Cricket Phone- create a new contact "Facebook" was a good name for me, go ahead and enter the email address into the email field of your contact - now save.

Your Done!

Anytime you want to post to Facebook - just start a new text message just as you always would, select Facebook as the contact and send - your phone will post directly to your Facebook wall - pictures work just fine also!

Full Facebook Mobile gives notification when you receive comments/messages etc. I would tear my hair out and smash my phone if I was bothered every time this occurred, so it doesnt matter to me. Cricket will have smart phones available later in 2010 and full SMS abilities via Facebook, this will work fine for you interm!
