●If you received your tablet in the mail and it is for a new Sprint account or a new line of service, it is designed to activate automatically.
When you turn the tablet on for the first time, you should see a Hands Free Activation screen, which may be followed by a PRL Update screen and a Firmware Update screen. Follow the prompts to continue.
●If you received your tablet in the mail and you are activating a new tablet for an existing number on your account (you are swapping tablets), you can activate on your computer online or directly on your tablet.
