There is a thread right here in the cricket blackberry forum that has a collection of cricket service books.

This isn't my solution, don't credit me.
First, go to options>advanced options>service books.
Hold ALT, and hit S/B/E/B(on the 8130 you have to hit S twice) to activate Legacy Service Books.
Make sure you have Desktop Manager. Download the service books here: URL
and restore the service book from desktop manager.
There you go. Full WAP and MMS on any Cricket flashed BB.
(Note: you may have to do a battery pull and reboot after you restore the SB)
