Getting Started With Sprint PCS Service

Determining if Your Phone is Already Activated

If you purchased your phone at a Sprint Store, it is probably activated, unlocked, and ready to use. If you received your phone in the mail, it probably has been activated; all you need to do is unlock it.

If your phone is not activated, please refer to the activation card included with your phone.

Unlocking Your Phone

To unlock your phone, follow these easy steps:

1. Press and hold to turn the phone on.

2. Press Unlock (rightsoftkey).

Note: To select a softkey, press the softkey button directly below the softkey

text that appears at the bottom left and bottom right of your phone’s display screen. Softkey actions change according to the screen you’re viewing and will not appear if there is no corresponding action available.

3. Enter your four-digit lock code. (For security purposes,

the code is not visible as you type.)

Tip: If you can’t recall your lock code, try using the last four digits

of either your Social Security number or wireless phone number or try 0000 or NATL (6285). If none of these work, call Sprint Customer Service at 1-888-211-4PCS (4727).

⽧ Using Data Roam Guard (page 73)

Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Your new dual-band/

tri-mode LX350 by LG works anywhere on the Nationwide Sprint PCS 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.

68 Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience

Understanding Roaming

Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Any time you are roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ). If you a re 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 Nationwide

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

Note: Unless your Sprint PCS 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 Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. However, you may not be able to access certain features, such as Sprint PCS Vision.

Note:If you’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network

and enter an area where roaming is available , your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think SprintPCS Service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnectto the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.

Roaming on Analog Networks

When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a similar quality provided by other analog carriers today. Although some features, such as Sprint PCS Vision and Sprint PCS Voice Command, will be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access voicemail. If you are accustomed to Sprint PCS Service, you may notice some of the following differences when using analog service:

䢇

You are more likely to experience static, crosstalk, fade-out, and dropped calls.

䢇

Some features which are standard on the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network, such as call waiting, Sprint PCS Vision, and direct international dialing, may be unavailable.

䢇

Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are roaming, you will not receive notification until you return to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. (See “Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming”on page 71.)

䢇

There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning) that exist with conventional analog services today.

䢇

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 using your phone in analog mode, the phone may feel warm.

This is normal for analog operation.

70 Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience

Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming

When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS 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 Nationwide Sprint PCS 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. SelectMenu > Settings > Roaming > Set Mode.

2. To select an option, highlight it and press .

Roaming

䡲

Sprint Only

allows you to access the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network only and prevents roaming on other networks.

䡲

Roaming Only forces the phone to seek a roaming system. The previous setting (Sprint 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 Nationwide Sprint PCS 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 Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.)

To turn Call Guard on or off:

1. SelectMenu > Settings > Roaming > Call Guard.

2. Highlight On or Offand press .

roaming with Call Guard enabled.

number and press . (You can also initiate a call from the Contacts, Call History, or Messaging.)

2. SelectRoam Call.

1. Press . (A message will be displayed notifying you

that roaming charges will apply.)

2. SelectAnswer.

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. SelectMenu > Settings > Roaming > Data Roam Guard.

2. Highlight Always Ask or Never Ask Again and press .
