Please follow the instructions on the screen to activate your device.

Windows Phones”. If you want to disable this later, open the application list and select
settings > system > feedback and turn off the Send feedback option.
You are guided through the following activation screens: Choose A Language > Windows

Step 1. Sign in with a Windows Live ID
To download applications, play Xbox LIVE games, use a Zune Pass,
synchronise Windows Live information to the web and more, you will need
to sign in with a Windows LIVE ID.
A Windows Live ID is the email address you use to sign in to services
like Xbox LIVE®, Zune®, Hotmail®, and so on. If you can’t remember the
email address you use:
For Xbox LIVE: On your Xbox 360® console, sign in with your gamer tag,
then press the Guide button on your controller (the one in the middle that
looks like the Xbox logo). In Settings, click Account Management >
email & accounts.
For Zune: Install the Zune Software in advance. Sign in to the Zune software on your PC.
Right-click your profile picture and click Switch user to see your Windows Live ID. To reset your
password or get a reminder, go to http://account live.com/ResetPassword.aspx.
If you haven't yet signed in with a Windows Live ID, there are a few things you won't be able to
do on your phone for the moment (for example, get applications or play Xbox LIVE games).
