I only had money to buy the phone. It was $640 off with new sprint service. I have 30 days to activate service. I get paid every 30 days, so I'll activate next month.

I got sprint service. It's the lavender 128gb model.

I want to use the phone in the 30 days between now and activation. It appears that I will be met with a Sprint activation screen on startup.

How can I bypass this to use the phone?

Sounds like you are using a Sprint Prepaid service perhaps, where you cant get the service active without paying in advance? Are you unable to get a sprint post paid account? That way you can have activation now, and pay later.
