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 Mobile Web services and Voice Command, will be
unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access voicemail.
You will experience a few differences:
ᮣ You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out,
and dropped calls.
ᮣ Some features which are standard on the network, such as call
waiting, web services, and direct international dialing, are
unavailable.
ᮣ Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are
roaming, you will not receive notification until you return to the
network. While roaming, you can periodically check your
voicemail for new messages by dialing 1+area code+your
Phone Number. Press when you hear your greeting and
enter your passcode at the prompt.
ᮣ There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and
cloning) that exist with conventional analog services today.
ᮣ Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your
phone for analog roaming.
Note: If you’re on a call when you leave the network and enter an area
where roaming is available, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in
an area where you think service is available, turn your phone Off and On
again to reconnect to the network.
