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.)
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.

Data Connection Status and Indicators
Your phone notifies you of the current status of your data connection through status icons in the
Status Bar. The following symbols can be displayed:
Your phone is connected to the high-speed 4G Sprint Mobile Broadband Network. When
the signal bands are animated, your phone is scanning and connecting. During data
transfer, the animated icon is not used (for example, when you are opening a web page).
When the signal bands are gray, your phone is connected to the network, signal is weak.
When both the bands and the 4G icon are gray, there is no coverage and you are
disconnected from the 4G network.
