All you need to know to get going.

Activate Your Phone
2
•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
activates automatically after you
complete setup (see p. 6).
•If you received your phone in the mail
and you are switching the number from
a previous Sprint phone, do not turn
on your new phone yet. Wait until
your old phone is deactivated. Go to
sprint.com/activate on your computer.
Follow the instructions to activate the
number on your new phone.
If you have any problems with activation,
contact Sprint Customer Service at
1-888-211-4727 from another phone.

Turn On Your Phone
3
Activate your phone before you turn it
on (see previous page). Then press and
hold the power button until you see the
Palm logo. Wait for setup to start (please
be patient).
Use of this device requires providing a valid email address,
mobile phonenumber, and related information for account
setup and activation. A data plan isalso required. An
unlimited usage data plan is strongly recommended or
additional data charges may apply.

Set Up Your Phone
6
To use your phone, you must agree to
Palm’s terms and conditions, and then
create a Palm profile: Enter a working
email address and create a password.
Setting up a Palm profile is different from
setting up email. To set up email, see p. 15.
Why do I need a Palm profile?
A Palm profile gives you access to services
like software updates, daily backup of
your data, and remote erase of your data
should your phone be lost or stolen.
NOTE: Do you have a Palm profile from a
phone that you no longer use? Just sign in
to your existing profile. All info associated
with your profile is downloaded to your
new phone.

Set Up Contacts &
Calendar to Sync
7
To wirelessly sync Contacts and
Calendar info, set up online accounts
with providers like Google and Microsoft
Exchange ActiveSync.
If you don’t already have an account
with a service provider, you must create
one before you set up the account on
your phone.
•Google: Go to gmail.com.
•Exchange: Check with your
company’s IT department.
A sync relationship you set up in one app
is automatically set up in other apps. For
example, by setting up a Gmail email
account, your phone is also set to sync
Google Contacts, Calendar, and IM.

Set Up Accounts
on Your Phone
The first time you open Contacts,
Calendar, and Messaging, you see a
setup screen that appears only once:
Tap Add an Account > enter username
and password > Sign In.
Just want to jump to your contacts or
calendar, or send a message? Tap
Done .
Email: See p. 15.
Later, set up accounts this way: Open
the menu by tapping the app name in
the upper-left corner of the screen >
Preferences & Accounts > Add An
Account.
Your Palm profilealso has an account
associated with it. You can use it for
Contacts and Calendar info, and for other
kinds of info as well, like Memos. This info
is backed up daily, but you can access
this info only on your phone. Unlike info
stored with Google and other online
accounts, there’s no way to see Palm
profile account info on your computer.

Transfer Info to
Your Phone
9
On your computer, look for an email from
Palm at the address you used to create
your Palm profile. Finish setting up your
profile on your computer; then click the
link that takes you to a website
(palm.com/migrate-pixi) that explains
your data-transfer options.
What kinds of info can I transfer?
Contacts, calendar info, tasks, and
memos/notes.
Where can I export info from?
•Windows: Palm®Desktop and
standalone Outlook®(Outlook that
doesn’t sync with an Exchange server).
•Mac: iCal and Address Book.
Where do I transfer the info to?
Pick the account—for example, your
Google, Exchange, or Palm profile
account—to receive the info you exported
from your computer. We recommend
that you transfer your info to an online
account (see p. 7).
