Because coverage isn’t everything, Cricket is offering $100 to switch from T-Mobile or MetroPCS
If you ever said to yourself, “Man, you’d have to pay me to use Cricket” today’s your day. The now AT&T owned prepaid carrier is offering up a $100 credit to anyone who leaves T-Mobile or MetroPCS (also owned by T-Mobile) for up to 5 lines.
If you’re crazy enough to switch to Cricket from T-Mobile may heaven help you, but for those interested the promo will run until October 19th and will only work for those porting their number to one of Cricket’s available Basic, Smart, or Pro plans.
The deal shouldn’t come as much of a surprise considering AT&T officially purchased Cricket earlier this year for $1.19 billion and is looking to turn a little extra profit at rival carrier T-Mobile’s expense. Cricket and MetroPCS often go head-to-head in rural markets offering up affordable off-contract devices for those on a budget.

HTC Desire 510 carrier availability announced for the US and Canada, here’s where you’ll be able to buy one
Announced during the wee hours of last night, the HTC Desire 510 is a sexy little entry level Android that wont break the bank. While the official announcement did a good job at revealing the new handset (which seriously, looks awesome), it was mum on exact availability details like when — and more importantly, where — we can plan on picking one up in the future.
This afternoon, HTC USA took to their Twitter account to reveal exactly where we can pick up the HTC Desire 510 later this year, listing off Sprint, Virgin Mobile, Boost Mobile and even Cricket. For this living a little more north, HTC Canada also chimed in, revealing that the handset will be available from Fido Mobile, Rogers, SaskTel, Telus, Videotron, and Virgin Mobile (Canada, of course). For those that need a little refresher on exactly what the HTC Desire 510 offers up, check out some of the basic hardware specs listed below.
HTC Desire 510 specs
- 4.7-inch FWVGA display
- Quad-core 1.2GHz Snapdragon 410 processor
- 8GB of internal storage (microSD up to 128GB)
- 1GB of RAM

- 2,100mAh battery

One of the coolest parts about the HTC Desire 510 is that HTC will also offer a compatible Dot View case made especially for the device. A stylish way to the protect the handset, the Dot View case allows you to see specific notifications and interact with the device even while the case is closed. HTC recently updated the Dot View app on Google Play to allows users to upload their own images, while expanding notification support. Slick.
