Activate Your Phone
If you purchased your phone at a
Sprint Store,
it is probably
activated and ready to use.
If you received your phone in the
mail, and it is a new Sprint account
or a new phone number,
your
phone is designed to activate
automatically when you first turn it
on. You will see a
Hands Free
Activation
screen at startup. When
it’s finished, tap
OK
to continue. To
confirm your activation, make a
phone call.
If you received your phone in
the mail and it is going to be
activated on an existing number
(you’re swapping phones),
go to
and follow the
instructions. When you have
finished, make a phone call to
confirm your activation.
If your phone is still not activated, visit
sprint.com/support for assistance. If you do
not have access to the Internet, call Sprint
Customer Service at
1-888-211-4727
from
another phone.
