After cooking, does it just work?

The same way you would activate a phone normally. I don't exactly know how it works for sprint, but with verizon, you would do a *228 option 1. and if that doesn't work, call verizon, tell them your device needed to be hard reset, and get a new akey. and they should walk you through the process. But that's verizon. I'm not sure how sprint does it (luckily, you're an employee)
