Getting Started With Data Services
With your Sprint service, you are ready to start enjoying
the advantages of data services. This section will help
you learn the basics of using your data services,
including managing your user name, launching a data
connection, and navigating the Web with your phone.
Your User Name
When you buy your phone and sign up for service, you’re
automatically assigned a user name, which is typically
based on your name and a number, followed by
“@sprintpcs.com.” (For example, the third John Smith to
sign up for Sprint services might have
jsmith003@sprintpcs.com as his user name.)
When you use data services, your user name is
submitted to identify you to the Nationwide Sprint
Network.
Your user name will be automatically programmed into
your phone. You don’t have to enter it.
Finding Your User Name
If you aren’t sure what your user name is, you can easily
find it on your phone.
