Using This Guide
This Get Started guide is designed to help you set up and use your new
Express from Sprint. It’s divided into four sections to help you find the
information you need quickly and easily.
Get Ready − page 1 − Find out what
you need to do before you use your
device the first time, including inserting
a battery and activating Sprint service on
your device.
Android™ Basics − page 4 − Learn

hurt anyone).
