2 Basics Guide
Before you do anything else, please read this
Charge the battery
The battery in your phone hasn’t been charged yet. While your phone is charging, it’s
important that you do not remove the battery pack. Doing so can damage your phone.
Also, please don’t try to take your phone apart. (If you do, it may invalidate your warranty.)
Choose a rate plan wisely
Your phone can use up a lot of Internet bandwidth really quickly. Before you use your
phone, we strongly recommend that you talk to your mobile operator about data rates.
What are Wireless Emergency Alerts/CMAS?
Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA), also known as CMAS, is a part of a national alerting
system called IPAWS (Integrated Public Alert and Warning System) that enables
emergency management officials to rapidly disseminate the warnings and safety
information via text alerts to wireless phones based on the phones’ geographic location,
The Federal Emergency Management Agency or FEMA is responsible for receiving the
alerting information and forwarding the alerts to participating wireless carriers such
as Sprint. Such alerts may come from the President of the United States; the National
Weather Service, state or county public safety officials. This system is integrated into the
same national alerting services that serve television and radio today. For more information
regarding WEA/CMAS please go to: FEMA website.

or punitive damages of any kind, arising in contract, tort, or otherwise, including, but not
