Get Started 3
From your computer’s Web browser, go to sprint.com/activate and complete the on-
screen instructions to activate your phone.
When you have finished, make a phone call to confirm your activation. If your phone is still not
activated or you do not have access to the Internet, contact Sprint Customer Service at 1-888-
211-4727 for assistance.
Tip: Do not press the Power/Lock button while the phone is being activated. Pressing it
cancels the activation process.

1-888-211-4727 from any other phone.
Complete the Setup Application
After activation and any required updates, your phone should power off and then back on again.
After the restart, you’ll see a Welcome screen. You can then complete the Setup steps.
1. Touch Start to begin the setup application. Follow the prompts to set up your phone and
accounts.
Set up your Google™ Account: Create or sign in to your Google account.

Account.
Note: You do not need to sign up for a Google account to make a phone call. However, to
download applications from the Google Play™ Store, you need to link your phone to a
Google account.
2. Touch Done.
