oaming is the ability to make or receive calls while you’re off the
Sprint PCS Nationwide Network. Your new dual-band Sprint PCS
Phone
TM
works anywhere on the Sprint PCSNationwide Network and allows
you to roam on analog cellular and digital networks where Sprint PCS has
implemented roaming agreements.
This section explains how roaming works as well as special features that let
you manage your roaming experience.

Tip:
Remember, when
you’re using your
phone off the
Sprint PCS Network,
always dial
numbers
using 11 digits
(1 + area code +
number).
Tip:
You will pay a higher
per-minute rate for
roaming calls.
Understanding How Roaming Works
Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know
when you’re off the Sprint PCS Network and
whether your phone is operating in analog
cellular or digital mode. The following chart
indicates what you’ll see depending on where
you’re using your phone.

Understanding
Roaming
Roaming on Other PCS CDMA Networks
When you’re roaming on other PCS CDMA
networks, your call quality will be similar to the
quality you receive when making calls while on
the Sprint PCS Network. You may not be able to
access certain calling features, such as
Sprint PCSWireless Web, however , all of your
calls are still private and secure.
Roaming on Analog Cellular Networks
When you roam on analog cellular networks,
you will experience the same quality provided by
analog cellular carriers today . Although certain
calling features, such as Sprint PCS Wireless Web,
may be unavailable, you can still make and
receive calls. You will experience a few
differences including:
You are more likely to experience static,
cross-talk, fade-out and dropped calls.
Some calling features that are standard on
the Sprint PCS Network are unavailable.
There are security and privacy risks
(eavesdropping and cloning) that exist with
conventional analog cellular
services today .
Your battery needs recharging sooner when
you use your phone for analog cellular
roaming.
Tip:
If you’re on a call
when you leave the
Sprint PCS Network
and enter an area
where roaming is
available (whether
CDMA or analog
cellular), your call is
dropped. If your call is
dropped in an area
where you think
Sprint PCS Service is
available, turn your
phone off and on
again to reconnect to
the Sprint PCS
Nationwide Network.

Setting up Voicemail
The first thing you’ll want to do after
activating your phone is to set up voicemail.
See Section 1 page 12 for instructions.
Message T ypes
There are three types of messaging functions
available on your Sprint PCS Phone.
Voicemail, Numeric Paging and Sprint PCS
Wireless Web Messaging allow you to receive
messages as long as your phone has enough
memory locations to store them.
Voicemail captures calls automatically when
you can’t answer your phone or it is turned
off. The voicemail system sends a notification
to your phone letting you know when you
have new voice messages waiting in your
voicemail box.
Numeric pagingallows a caller to enter a
phone number into your voicemail box
instead of a voice message. The phone number
appears on your phone as a numeric page.
Sprint PCS Wireless Web Messaging
(also known as T ext Messaging) allows
messages to appear as short alphanumeric
messages on your phone’s display screen. You
must purchase the Sprint PCS Wireless Web
option in order to receive text messages on
your Sprint PCS Phone.
Tip:
When you are roaming
off the Sprint PCS
Network, you may not
receive notification of
new voicemail messages.
It is recommended that
you periodically check
your voicemail by dialing
1 + area code + your
Sprint PCSPhone Number.
Note:
