Activating Your Device
䢇 If you purchased your device at a Sprint Store, it is probably activated and ready to use.
䢇 If you received your device in the mail and it is for a new Sprint account or a new line of service, it is designed to
activate automatically. To confirm your activation, make a phone call.
䢇 If you received your device in the mail and you are activating a new device for an existing number on your account, you
will need to go online to activate your new device.
䡲 From your computer’s Web browser, go to www.sprint.com/activate and complete the onscreen
instructions to activate your new device.
When you have finished, make a phone call to confirm your activation. If your device is still not activated or
you do not have access to the Internet, contact Sprint Customer Service at
1-888-211-4727 for assistance.
Note
Your device’s battery should have enough charge for your device to turn on and find a signal, set up your
voicemail, and make a call. You should fully charge your battery as soon as possible. See “Charging the Battery”
on page 13 for details.
Notes
• Do not press the End key while your device is being activated. Pressing the End key cancels the activation
process.
• If you are having difficulty with activation, contact Sprint Customer Service by dialing
1-888-211-4727 from
any other phone.
