Sprint Data Services
Getting Started
With your phone and Sprint service, you are ready to start
enjoying the advantages of Sprint data services. This section
helps you learn the basics of using your Sprint data services,
including managing your user name, launching a data
connection, and navigating the Web with your phone.
Your User Name
When you buy a 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 “@Sprint.com.” (For
example, the third John Smith to sign up for Sprint data
services might have
[e-mail] as his user name.)
When you use Sprint data services, your user name is
submitted to identify you to the Nationwide Sprint Network.
The user name is also useful as an address, as a way to
personalize Web services, and as an online virtual identity.
Your user name is 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 online or on your phone.
To find your user name:
䢇 At www.sprint.com. Sign on to your account using your
phone number and password. To display your user name,
click the My Personal Information menu, then click on user
name.
䢇 On your phone. You can find your user name under the
Phone Info option in your phone's Settings menu
(
O > Settings > Phone Info > My Phone #).
