TTY Use With Sprint Service

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 device is compatible with select TTY devices. Please check with the manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure that it supports digital wireless transmission. Your device and TTY device will connect via a special cable that plugs into your device'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 via the state Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first dialing . Then provide the state TRS with this number:

866-727-4889.

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.

⽧ Understanding Roaming ⽧ Setting Your Device’s Roam Mode

Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off the Sprint National Network. Your new Samsung ACE

works anywhere on the Sprint National Network and allows you to roam on other 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.

72 Section 2D. Roaming

Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen

Your device’s Home screen always lets you know when you’re off the Sprint National Network. Anytime you are roaming, the device displays the roaming icon ( ) and extra charges may apply when making or receiving a call.

Remember, when you are using your device off the

Tip

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

Roaming on Other Digital Networks

When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality and security will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls on the Sprint National Network. However, you may not be able to access certain features, such as data services, depending on the available network.

If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint National

Note

Network, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think Sprint service is available, turn your device off and on again to reconnect to the network.

Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming

When you are roaming off the Sprint National Network, you may not receive automatic on-device 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.

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 Sprint National Network, voicemail notification will resume as normal.
