TTYUseWith Sprint Service
ATTY (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 via 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.

WARNING
911 Emergency Calling
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.
