At this point you will be asked if you want to do a manufacter's reset, enter yes. The phone will shut down and reset itself after a few seconds. Once the process is complete, the phone will go through a hands free activation. After the activation process, updates may be downloaded and installed. Now that all updates have been performed, you may check to see if your GPS is working by going to Google Maps. You should be able to lock in GPS signal in under 10 seconds. Thats it. Your GPS woes are over."


Actually it didn't automatically activate for me, I went into SprintZone and it did it from there.
i got a little more info on this, if you call sprint tech they can do this for you ota. dont call them from phone or on pc use chat on sprints site. i just talked to my sprint guy and we did it on a store epic that i flashed dk28 rom on first.
