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

some basics about how to move around
on your device, use the Home screen, and
enter text. If you’re familiar with Android
devices, you can probably skip these
pages (although a refresher course never
hurt anyone).

Use Your Device − page 9 − Take

advantage of your device’s features
and Sprint services, from the basics
(Making Calls) to the more advanced
(using Email, YouTube, GPS Navigation,
and more).

Tools & Resources − page 29 − Find

useful tips for your device and discover
resources and other helpful Sprint
information. For additional information
including the full User Guide, videos,
