Understanding Roaming

Roaming Indicator on the Display Screen

The roaming indicator ( )on your display screen lets you know when

you’re off the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. You can set your roaming

mode to Spint only, analog only, or automatic, which then allows your

phone to automatically select the roaming mode when Sprint service is

not available.

Tip: Remember, when you are using your phone off the Sprint Nationwide PCS

Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).

Note: You will pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.

security will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls

while on the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. You may not be able to

access certain calling features, such as PSC Voice Command or call

waiting.

quality provided by other analog carriers today. Although some calling

features will be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and
