2 Getting Started
The battery icon in the upper right corner of the
screen tells you whether the phone is:
• Charging (the icon is animated)
• Partially charged
• Fully charged
Note: The battery will not charge if you use the
phone while it is connected to an AC adapter.
Note: You must use a Kyocera-authenticated
battery in your phone. If you attempt to use a
battery that has not been authenticated you will
receive a security warning. Contact Virgin Mobile
to obtain a Kyocera-authenticated battery.
Activating your Virgin
Mobile account
Before you can start talking, messaging, or
downloading, you need to activate service
with Virgin Mobile.
You need your phone's ESN to activate your
Virgin Mobile account.
Activate your account online by going to
www.virginmobileusa.com and clicking on
Activate. Or call Virgin Mobile At Your Service at
1-888-322-1122.
Programming your phone
Once your account is activated, you will receive
MDN and MSID/Network ID numbers. These are
used to program your phone. When you are ready,
follow these steps to program your phone:
1. Turn on your phone. Program your phone
using the external number keypad. DO NOT

##VIRGIN (##847446). Press the left softkey
to select

3. Highlight Edit and press .
4. The prompt "Edit MDN - enter ten digits…" is

screen, press back to clear the screen.
5. Enter the 10-digit MDN number.
6. Press the left softkey to select .
7. The prompt "Edit MSID - enter ten digits…" is

only the last 10-digits.
9. Press the left softkey to select Done.
10. A message saying your programming is
complete is displayed. The phone turns off
and then on by itself.
That's it - you are done! Nice work. It might take a
couple of hours to get you set up on our network,
but we will send a text message to your phone to
let you know you can start talking. Also, it may
take up to 4 hours for VirginXL, voicemail, and
Top-Up features to come online.
