All you need to know to get going.  
 
Using This Guide  
This Get Started guide is designed to help you set up and use your new  
KYOCERA Hydro EDGE. It’s divided into four sections to help you find the  
information you need quickly and easily.  
Use Your Phone − page 9 − Take  
advantage of your phone’s features  
and Sprint services, from the basics  
(making calls) to the more advanced  
(using Email, YouTube, GPS Navigation,  
and more).  
Get Ready − page 1 − Find out what  
you need to do before you use your  
phone the first time, including inserting  
a battery and activating Sprint service on  
your phone.  
Android™ Basics − page 3 − Learn  
some basics about how to move around  
on your phone, use the Home screen, and  
enter text. If you’re familiar with Android  
phones, you can probably skip these  
pages (although a refresher course never  
hurt anyone).  
Tools & Resources − page 30 − Find  
useful tips for your phone and discover  
resources and other helpful Sprint  
information. For additional information  
including the full User Guide, videos,  
tutorials, and community forums, visit
