Activate and use your device

Many devices use a physical SIM card that is already inserted in the device. If you use a different SIM, you might not be able to access our wireless network or use all our network features.

If your SIM isn’t already inserted, learn how to put it in.

1. Go to Device Support.
2. Choose your device.
3. Scroll to Getting started and select Hardware & phone details.
4. Choose Insert or remove SIM card and follow the steps.

Is this a device upgrade or number transfer? If so, you’ll have to activate your new SIM. Let's activate it now

Have a new phone and a new number? You’re likely already activated. Turn on your device and make a test call. If you can’t make a call, activate your device.
