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 available network. Any time you are roaming,
the phone displays the roaming icon ( ). If you are
roaming on an analog system, the roaming icon will display
along with the text – Analog Roam – .
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 available network. However, you may
not be able to access certain features, such as data services.
Note:
If you’re on a call when you leave the available network and
enter an area where roaming is available , your call is
dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think
network service is available, turn your phone off and on
again to reconnect to the available network.
Note:
You may pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Tip:
Remember, when you are using your phone off the available
network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code +
number).
