Understanding Roaming
Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Displa y Screen
Y our phone’s display scr een always lets you know when y ou’re
off the Nationwide SprintPCS Network. Any time you are
roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon (). If you are
roaming on a digital system, the roaming icon will display
along with the text- Digital Roam -. If you are roaming on an
analog system, the roaming icon will display along with the
text- Analog Roam -.
Tip: Remember , when you are using y our phone off the Nationwide
SprintPCS Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code +
number).
Note: Unless your Sprin tPCS Service Plan includes roaming, you will pay a
higher per-minute rate f or roaming calls.
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you’re r oaming on digital networks, your call quality
and security will be similar to the quality you receive when
making calls on the Nationwide SprintPCS Network.
However , you may notbe able to access certain features,
such as SprintPCS Vision.
Note:If you're on a call when you leave the Nationwide SprintPCS Network
and enter an area where roaming is av ailable , 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 SprintPCS
Network.

Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience69
Roaming on Analog Networks
When you roam on analog networks, y ou will experience a
similar quality provided by other analog carriers today .
Although some features, such as SprintPCS Vision and
SprintPCS Voice Command, will be unav ailable, you can
still make and receive calls and access voicemail. If y ou are
accustomed to SprintPCS Service, you may notice some of
the following differences when using analog service:
v
Y ou are more likely to experience static, cr oss-talk,
fade-out, and dropped calls.
v
Some features which are standard on the Na tionwide
SprintPCS Network, such as call waiting, Sprint PCS
Vision, and directinternational dialing, may be
unavailable.
v
Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you
are roaming, you will notreceive notification until you
return to the Nationwide SprintPCS Network. (See
"Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming" on
page 71.)
v
There are security and privacy risks (eav esdropping and
cloning) tha
today.
v
Y our battery’s charge will deplete mor e quickly and you
will need to recharge itmore often when you use your
phone for analog roaming.
Note: When using y our phone in analog mode, the phone may feel warm.
This is normal for analog operation.
