Your Device, Number & Email Address
We don't manufacture any Device that we
might sell to you or that is associated with
our Services, and we aren't responsible
for any defects, acts, or omissions of the
manufacturer. The only warranties on your
Device are the limited warranties given to
you by the manufacturer directly or that
we pass through. Device performance
may vary based on device specifications
(for example, a device's software, memory,
and storage), and device performance
may impact access to all of our Services.
Your Device is designed to be activated
on our networks and in other coverage
areas that we may make available to you.
As programmed, it will not accept wireless
service from another carrier. Except for any
legal right you may have to port/transfer
your phone number to another carrier,
you have no—and cannot gain any (for

example, through publication, use, etc.)—
proprietary, ownership, or other rights to
any phone number, identification number,
email address, or other identifier that we
assign to you, your Device, or your account.
We'll notify you if we decide to change
or reassign them. Your CDMA Sprint PCS
phone may have software programming
lock that protects certain of the handset's
operating parameters against unauthorized
reprogramming. If your device has a
software programming lock, and you wish
to obtain the software program lock code
for your CDMA Sprint PCS phone, please
visit sprint.com or call 1-888-211-4727 for
information and eligibility requirements.
Porting/Transferring Phone Numbers
We don't guarantee that number transfers
to or from us will be successful. If you
authorize another carrier to transfer
a number away from us, then that is
considered a request by you to us to
terminate all of the Services associated
with that number. You're responsible
for all charges billed or incurred prior to
deactivation and for any applicable Early
Termination Fees.

change without notice. Service speeds
may depend on the Service purchased.
Actual speeds will vary. Estimating
wireless coverage, signal strength, and
Service speed is not an exact science.
There are gaps in coverage within our
estimated coverage areas that-along
with other factors both within and
beyond our control (for example, network
problems, network or Internet congestion,
software, signal strength, your Device,
structures, buildings, weather, geography,
topography, server speeds of the websites
you access, actions of third parties,
etc.)-may result in dropped and blocked
connections, slower Service speeds, or
otherwise impact the quality of Service.
Services that rely on location information,
such as E911 and GPS navigation, depend
on your Device's ability to acquire satellite
