Understanding Roaming
Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
Using Call Guard
Using Data Roam Guard
Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off the available network.Your new dual-band/ tri-mode
LG150 by LG works anywhere on the available network and allows you to roam on other analog and 1900 and 800 MHz digital networks where we’ve implemented roaming agreements with other carriers.
This section explains how roaming works as well as special features that let you manage your roaming experience.
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 67
Understanding Roaming
Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the available network. Anytime you are roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ). If you are roaming on a digital system, the roaming icon will be displayed along with the text – Digital Roam – . If you are roaming on an analog system, the roaming icon will be displayed along with the text
– Analog Roam – .
Tip: Remember, when you are using your phone off the available network,
always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).
Note: Unless your wireless service Plan includes roaming, you will pay a
higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you’re roaming on other digital networks, your call quality and security will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls on the available network. However, you may not be able to access certain features, such as Data service.
Note:If you’re on a call when you leave the available network and enter an
area where roaming is available , your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think network service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to the available network.
Roaming
68 Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience
Roaming on Analog Networks
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a quality similar to that provided by other analog carriers today. Although some features, such as Data service, will be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access voicemail. If you are accustomed to Data Service, you may notice some of the following differences when using analog service:
You are more likely to experience static, crosstalk, fade-out, and dropped calls.
Some features which are standard on the available network, such as call waiting, Data service, and direct international dialing, may be unavailable.
Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are roaming, you will not receive notification until you return to the available network. (See “Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming”.)
There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning) that exist with conventional analog services today.
Your battery’s charge will deplete more quickly and you will need to recharge it more often when you use your phone for analog roaming.
Note: When usingyour phone in analog mode, the phone may feel warm.
This is normal for analog operation.
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 69
Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming
When you are roaming off the available network, you will not receive on-phone notification of new voicemail messages. Callers can still leave messages, but you will need to periodically check your Voicemail for new messages if you are in a roaming service area for an extended period of time.
To check your voicemail while roaming:
1. Dial 1 + area code + your phone number.
2. When you hear your voicemail greeting, press .
3. Enter your passcode at the prompt and follow the voice
prompts.
When you return to the available network, voicemail notification will resume as normal.
Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
Your phone allows you to control your roaming capabilities. By using the Roaming menu option, you can determine which signals your phone accepts.
Set Mode
Choose from three different settings on your dual- band phone to control your roaming experience.
To set your phone’s roam mode:
1. Select Menu > Settings > Roaming > SetMode.
2. To select an option, highlight it and press .
Roaming
70 Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience
Automatic seeks network service. When network service unavailable, the phone searches for an alternate system.
Home Only
allows you to access the available network only and prevents roaming on other networks.
Roaming Only forces the phone to seek a roaming system. The previous setting (Home Only or Automatic) is restored the next time the phone is turned on.
Using Call Guard
Your phone has two ways of alerting you when you are roaming off the available network: the onscreen roaming icon and Call Guard. Call Guard makes it easy to manage your roaming charges by requiring an extra step before you can place or answer a roaming call. (This additional step is not required when you make or receive calls while on the available network.)
To turn Call Guard on or off:
1. Select Menu > Settings > Roaming > Call Guard.
2. Highlight Onor Off and press .
Note: Voice dialing and speed dialing are not available when you are
roaming with Call Guard enabled.
To place roaming calls with Call Guard on:
1. From standby mode, dial 1 + area code + the seven-digit
number and press . (You can also initiate a call from the Contacts, Call History, or Messaging.)
2. Select Roam Call.
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 71
To answer incoming roaming calls with Call Guard on:
1. Press . (A message will be displayed notifying you
that roaming charges will apply.)
2. Select Answer.
Note: If the Call Guard feature is set to On, you need to take extra steps to
make and receive roaming calls.
Using Data Roam Guard
When Data Roam Guard is enabled, you will be asked if you want to continue using your browser or other online applications when you are in a data roaming area. When Data Roam Guard is turned off, your phone will establish or maintain a data connection in a data roaming area without asking you for permission.
To turn Data Roam Guard on or off:
1. Select Menu > Settings > Roaming > Data Roam Guard.
2. Highlight Always Ask or Never Ask Againand press .
