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 it is going to be activated on an
existing number (you’re swapping
phones), go to sprint.com/activate

have finished, make a phone call to
