    Does anyone know which type of video recordsdata are supported? I remember the Instinct solely could dl 3gp using opera mini. I downloaded the twist ap, perhaps that’s the issue? How can I watch videos from websites aside from youtube? Which file types? Often I’m given the choice of 3gp or mpeg4. Cannot get both to work. Thank you on your time! Damn I wish I was eligible for the upgrade to EVO!
