Charge the Battery
For fastest charging times, use the Adaptive Fast Charging charger that came with your phone. This
charger provides faster charging only when connected to devices that have Adaptive Fast Charging.
1. Plug the USB cable into the Charger/Accessory Port on the bottom of the phone.
2. Plug the other end of the USB cable into the Adaptive Fast Charging charger, and then plug the
charger into an electrical outlet to charge your battery.
Activate Your Phone
Follow the instructions below to activate your phone if it has not already been activated. Depending on
your account or how and where you purchased your phone, it may be ready to use or you may need to
activate it on your Sprint account.
●
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 for a new Sprint account or a new line of service, it
is designed to activate automatically.
When you turn the phone on for the first time, you should see a
Hands Free Activation
screen, which may be followed by a
PRL Update
screen and a
Firmware Update
screen.
Follow the onscreen instructions to continue.

If you received your phone in the mail and you are activating a new phone for an existing number
