Visual Voicemail gives you a quick and easy way to access your voicemail. Now you can find exactly the message you are looking for without having to listen to every voicemail message first.

You should set up your Sprint voicemail and personal greeting as soon as your phone is activated. Your phone automatically transfers all unanswered calls to your voicemail, even if your phone is in use or turned off.

Voicemail (Traditional)

In addition to Visual Voicemail, your phone and Sprint service always offer traditional voicemail service accessed through the Phone application.

– Sprint strongly recommends that you create a password

Voicemail Notification

There are a couple of different ways your phone alerts you to a new voicemail message.
● By sounding the assigned notification sound.
● By vibrating the phone when the vibrate setting is on.
● By displaying within the Notifications area of the Status bar when new unheard
voicemail message(s) is received. The figure is the number of new messages. This icon means you have ten unheard new messages.
Note:
Note:
When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint Network, you may not receive notification of new voicemail messages. Sprint recommends that you periodically check your voicemail by dialing 1 + area code + your wireless phone number. When your
voicemail answers, touch and enter your password. Roaming rates apply when you access voicemail while roaming off the Nationwide Sprint Network.
Your phone accepts messages even when it is turned off. However, your phone notifies you of new messages only when it is turned on and you are in a Sprint service area.

Retrieve Your Voicemail Messages

You can review your messages directly from your wireless phone (using either traditional voicemail or Visual Voicemail) or from any other touch-tone phone.

TTY Mode

A TTY (teletypewriter, also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to communicate by telephone.
Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices. Please check with the manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure that it supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY device
will connect using a special cable that plugs into your phone’s headset jack. If this cable was not
provided with your TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase the connector cable.
When establishing your Sprint service, please call Sprint Customer Service using the state Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first dialing . Then provide the state TRS with this number:

Warning: 911 Emergency Calling
When enabled, TTY mode may impair the audio quality of non-TTY devices connected to the headset jack.
TTY Off
Sprint recommends that TTY users make emergency calls by other means, including Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and landline communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted when received by public safety answering points (PSAPs), rendering some communications unintelligible. The problem encountered appears related to TTY equipment or software used by PSAPs. This matter has been brought to the attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry and the PSAP community are currently working to resolve this.
