charge the battery as soon as possible.
3. Press and hold the Power button to turn the phone on.

If your phone is activated, it will turn on, search for Sprint service, and begin the
setup process.

If your phone is not yet activated, see Activate Your Phone for more information.
Insert a SIM Card
Your phone comes with a preinstalled SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card.
Note: Your SIM card should be preinstalled. If you need to reinstall your SIM card, follow the
instructions below.
Note: The SIM included contains information specific to your phone and should be retained
with the phone.

6. Replace the battery and the battery cover. See Insert and Charge the 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.
Get Started

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.

on your Sprint account.

to communicate by telephone.
Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices. Please check with the manufacturer of your
TTY device to ensure that it supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY device
will connect using a special cable that plugs into your phone’s headset jack. If this cable was not
provided with your TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase the
connector cable.
When establishing your Sprint service, please call Sprint Customer Service using the state

Sprint recommends that TTY users make emergency calls by other means,
including Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and
landline communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted when
received by public safety answering points (PSAPs), rendering some
communications unintelligible. The problem encountered appears related to TTY
equipment or software used by PSAPs. This matter has been brought to the
attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry and the PSAP community are
currently working to resolve this.

Before Making Your First Direct Connect Call
To enable Direct Connect on your phone, a Sprint Customer Service representative must add
Direct Connect services to your account. Please call Sprint Customer Service at 1-888-2114727 for more information.
Important:
When the Direct Connect feature is active, your phone’s data services are
enabled.
Your Direct Connect Number
Your Sprint phone allows you two different options for your Direct Connect number.
Your Direct Connect number will be one of the following:
●
Separate number (DC Only) - Your Direct Connect number is a unique number (not your
wireless number). It is made up of three sets of digits separated by asterisks (for
example, 444*5555*111).
●
A single number - Your Direct Connect number is the same as your wireless number (for
example, 555-555-1234).
Dial Direct Connect Numbers
Save a Direct Connect Number
Display Your Direct Connect Number
Dial Direct Connect Numbers
Understand the types of Direct Connect numbers for making Direct Connect calls.
●
If the person you are calling has a separate number for Direct Connect, make sure you
dial any asterisks (*) in the number. If you are saving the number in your Contacts,
choose DC Only for the phone type.
●
If the person you are calling has a single number for both voice calls and for Direct
Connect, use that ten-digit phone number to make Direct Connect calls. You do not
need to add any asterisks (*) to the number. If you are saving this number in your
Contacts, choose other than DC Only for the phone type.
Tip:
Users with a Nextel phone must always add asterisks (*) between sets of numbers to
dial Direct Connect numbers. If you use a single number, make sure to tell your contacts
with Nextel phones to dial the number using asterisks (*) in place of hyphens (for
example, 555*555*1234).
Tip:
One way to easily ensure that your contacts have your correct number is to call them so
that they can save your number from their Call Log. Ask them for their contact
information. Remember you will need all digits of the number to make a successful call.

Note: All Direct Connect users with Nextel or PowerSource phones must ALWAYS use an
asterisk (*) between sets of digits, even if they are calling another user whose Direct
Connect number is the same as their wireless phone number. Make sure to include the
asterisks when giving your number to a Nextel or PowerSource user (for example, if your
number is 555-555-1234, when giving it to a Nextel or PowerSource user, it should be

Group Connect
A Group Connect call is a Direct Connect call made to up to 20 Direct Connect users with Sprint
phones nationwide at one time.
You can make a Group Connect call in several different ways:
●
By setting up a group entry in Contact on your phone.
●
By using the Sprint Mobile Sync tool at sprint.com. See Sprint Mobile Sync.
●
By selecting or entering multiple numbers for a one-time call.
For information on creating groups and storing them in Contacts, see Add a Group Connect
Contact.
Important:
When making a Group Connect call or creating a group list for Group Connect
calls in Contacts, you must select an entry’s Direct Connect–capable number. If
you select a number that is not Direct Connect–capable, the name will be added
to the list, but Group Connect calls will not go through to that group member.

TeamDC
TeamDC lets Direct Connect users make group calls to up to 200 other users nationwide. With
TeamDC, any Direct Connect or Sprint user can create a TeamDC group online, which the
system then automatically pushes to all the group members’ phones. Once a user creates and
distributes a TeamDC group, any member of the group can make a TeamDC call to the entire
group. If the user who created the group makes any changes to the group, the system
automatically sends updates to the members’ phones.
Note: The TeamDC feature supports group calls only with Direct Connect users with Sprint
phones. You cannot include users with Nextel phones in TeamDC groups.

Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi provides wireless Internet access over distances of up to 300 feet. To use your phone’s
Wi-Fi, you need access to a wireless access point or “hotspot.”
The availability and range of the Wi-Fi signal depends on a number of factors, including
infrastructure and other objects through which the signal passes.

WEP/WPA/WPA2 PSK) of detected Wi-Fi networks are displayed.
4. Touch a Wi-Fi network to connect. If you selected an open network, you will be

password, enter the password and then touch Connect.
Depending on the network type and its security settings, you may also need to enter more
information or choose a security certificate.
When your phone is connected to a wireless network, the Wi-Fi icon ( ) appears in the status
bar and tells you the approximate signal strength. (The above icon indicates maximum signal
strength.)
If Network notification in Advanced Wi-Fi settings is enabled, this icon (
) appears in the
status bar whenever the phone detects an available open wireless network within range.
Note: The next time your phone connects to a previously accessed secured wireless network,
you will not be prompted to enter the password again, unless you reset your phone to its
factory default settings or you instruct the phone to forget the network.
Note: Wi-Fi networks are self-discoverable, which means no additional steps are required for
your phone to connect to a Wi-Fi network. It may be necessary to provide a user name
and password for certain closed wireless networks.

Sprint Connections Optimizer
The Sprint Connections Optimizer is a tool that automatically selects the best mobile network for
your phone, including "remembered" Wi-Fi networks.
The Sprint Connections Optimizer helps you manage and enhance your data experience by
finding and connecting to "remembered" Wi-Fi networks on your phone. Remembered Wi-Fi
networks are networks with which you have previously chosen to connect. Active Wi-Fi
connections may offer improved performance and generally improve battery life while allowing
you to talk on the phone and use data at the same time. The Sprint Connections Optimizer
works by searching for available "remembered" Wi-Fi networks. If you do not leave your Wi-Fi
antenna on all the time, you will only notice the Sprint Connections Optimizer operating at
certain times of the day in a small number of locations on the Sprint network. Your Wi-Fi
antenna will conserve battery by scanning for connections periodically (not continuously), and if
no connection is achieved, the antennas will be turned off. You may also manually turn the
antennas off during the scan period. To facilitate quality assurance and enable feature
enhancements, information is collected about your battery levels, Wi-Fi and Sprint Network
connections and usage. No personal information is collected.
Enable Sprint Connections Optimizer
1. Touch Home
> Menu
> System settings > More… > Mobile networks >
Connections Optimizer. You will see a disclaimer.
