Internet and Social Networking

Understand your phone's data connection and start your social networking with handy apps that are
readily available on your phone.

Data Services General Information (4G LTE and
3G Networks)

The following topics 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.

Important: Certain data services requests may require additional time to process. While your phone is
loading the requested service, the touchscreen may appear unresponsive when in fact they are
functioning properly. Allow the phone some time to process your data usage request.

4G LTE

The Sprint 4G LTE network provides your phone with wireless Internet access over greater distances
than Wi-Fi and delivers data transfer rates of up to 60 Mbps. To connect your phone to the 4G LTE
network, you must be in an area covered by the 4G LTE network.

For more information about the availability of Sprint 4G LTE service in your location, visit

sprint.com/coverage

.

Note: The availability and range of the network depends on a number of factors including your distance to
the base station, and infrastructure and other objects through which the signal passes.

Set Your Network Options

1. Tap

>

>

Settings.

2. Under Wireless & networks, tap Mobile data > Network mode.

3. Select LTE/CDMA or Automatic.

 The phone will scan for the best available Sprint network and will automatically connect to it.

When your phone is connected via 4G LTE, LTE appears above the signal strength indicator

in the

status bar.

Note: The network is self-discoverable, which means no additional steps are required for your phone to
connect to it.

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 data services might have [email protected] as his user name.)
