Activate Your Device
Activating Your Device
If you purchased your device at a
Sprint Store, it is probably activated
and ready to use.
If you received your device in the mail,
and it is a new Sprint account or a new
phone number, your device is designed
to activate automatically. After the battery
is charged and you turn the base 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. Wait three to
five minutes for activation to take place
and make sure the device has a full
signal. If activation doesn’t work, try
moving the device to a different location.
If you received your device in the
mail and it is going to be activated on
an existing number (you’re swapping
devices), go to sprint.com/activate
and follow the instructions. When you
have finished, make a phone call to
confirm your activation.
If your device is still not activated, contact
Sprint Customer Service at 1-888-211-4727
for assistance.
