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 using 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 using the state
Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first dialing . Then provide
the state TRS with this number:
866-727-4889.
To turn TTY Mode on or off:
1. Press > and tap Settings > Call > TTY mode.

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.
