    I'm the caregiver for an alzheimer's patient who is living with me. I want to use my Boost Mobile cell phone and home web cam to watch my patient when I'm not home. I have installed two different programs on my PC which are designed to permit me to do this. But when I try to access either with my Boost Mobile phone it won't work. I have both a Motorola i335 and a Blackberry 7520 I can use with my Boost Mobile account. I willing to upgrade to one of the newer Boost Mobile phones if one of those phones will work. Is anyone reading this doing what I want to do with Boost Mobile and which application are you using and which Boost Mobile phone are you using (and which phone browser is working for you)?

    Thanks,

    Bob

    first try to down load a real browser goto boostapps and download bolt. It shows web pages like a pc with the ability to play video. I'm not sure what programs you have but I will try to help If you tell me the programs I'll try to do it here and send you instructions.

    I'm going to contact Bolt support and see if they can help me get Bolt loaded.
    I forgot to answer your other question. Right now I'm using the program available at mobigarda.com I have it working fine when I want to monitor my home webcam from a remote PC. But I can't get it to display on the Blackberry Boost phone.

    Thanks for trying to help me, Back4More420.

    I went to boostapps and linked the download to my phone number. I then tried to follow the instructions. It told me to look for an entry labeled "games and apps" or "java apps" in my phone's menus. I have searched every nook and cranny and cannot find an entry anything like that in the 7520 menu. So now I'm trying to figure out if there is any way for me to do this with the phones I have. I may buy the i856 and try to get bolt into it.

    how did you load the opera mini? try the same thing

    did you try the native browser to visit the boostapps site? you know you must look 4 surf the web twice theen enter site url not search, I dont know enough about the blackberry menus but if it's on boost I think we have the same native browsers, but I could be wrong

    I bought the phone on ebay with opera mini already loaded on it.
    I did make sure I was typing into the url field and not the search field.
    Hopefully if I get a later model phone it will be more conducive to loading bolt. Or maybe even with the browser which comes with the newer phone.
