Activating Your Phone
If you purchased your phone at a store, it should be activated
and ready to use.
If you received your phone in the mail, your phone must first
be activated via the Tools menu prior to its initial use. Once the
process has been completed, confirm your activation by
making a phone call.
Activation via the Tools Menu
Once you have installed the battery (page 11), press to turn
on your phone and begin the self-activation process.
This procedure will take you through the necessary steps before
initiating your first phone call or using any of the phone’s data
features.
1. Press > Tools > Activate > Yes (left softkey).
2. Follow the onscreen instructions and enter the required
information into their respective fields.
WARNING
If your handset has a touchscreen display, please
note that a touchscreen responds best to a light
touch from the pad of your finger or a non-metallic
stylus. Using excessive force or a metallic object
when pressing on the touchscreen may damage the
tempered glass surface and void the warranty. See
“Manufacturer’s Warranty” on page 98.
Tip
Do not press while the phone is being activated.
Pressing cancels the activation process.
Note
If you are having difficulty with activation, contact your
wireless service provider.
Note
No calls can be made until the phone is restarted after
setup.
Once phone activation is complete, the Activate menu
option will convert to “
Self-Service” (within the Menu >
Tools
menu).
