Getting Started With Data Services
With your Boost service, you are ready to start enjoying
the advantages of data services. This section will help
you learn the basics of using your data services,
including managing your user name, launching a data
connection, and navigating the Web with your Galaxy
Prevail™.
Your User Name
When you buy your phone and sign up for service,
you’re automatically assigned a user name, which is
typically based on your name and a number, followed
by “@myboostmobile.com.” (For example, the third
John Smith to sign up for Sprint data services might
have
as his user name.)
When you use data services, your user name is
submitted to identify you to the Boost network. Your
user name is automatically programmed into
yourphone. You don’t have to enter it.
3B. Web and Data Services
Important:
Certain data service requests may require
additional time to process. While your device is
loading the requested service, the touchscreen
may appear unresponsive when in fact it is
functioning properly. Allow the device some time
to process your data usage request.
