Blackberry Pointers

So as you may know, YouTube doesn't exactly like to work with the Blackberry browser. Many had thought that Rogers had something to do with this but it's not true. So if you're using the new OS 4.5 (which you'll need in order to view YouTube), here's the steps required to be able to actually view videos!

Go to 'Options', then 'Browswer configuration'
Enable the following:
  • Support JavaScript
  • Allow JavaScript popups
  • Terminate slow running scripts
  • Support HTML tables
  • Support Embedded Media
  • Support Style Sheets

then make sure you've selected 'On WML and HTML pages' for 'Show Images'
and then for Emulation Mode, select 'Microsoft IE'

And voila! It works!



Enjoy crackberry users!
