1. Click Manage Connections () > Mobile Network Options.
2. Scroll to Network Technology and click the trackball.
3. Select an option and click the trackball:
Ⅲ GSM/UMTS to allow connections to GSM networks only.
Ⅲ 1XEV to allow connections to CDMA networks only.
Ⅲ Global to allow connections to available CDMA or GSM networks.
4. Press and click Save to save the setting.
Making and Receiving Worldwide Calls
When traveling on international networks, you can place and answer calls as you would on
the Sprint network (see “Making and Answering Phone Calls” on page 16), although some
additional instructions may be required to place a call. Certain features and services are not
available in all countries. For more information on services that are available while roaming,
visit
www.sprint.com/sww.
Making Calls Using Plus (+) Code Dialing
Placing calls from one country to another country is simple with the Plus (+) Code Dialing
feature. When placing international calls, you can use Plus Code Dialing to enter the
appropriate international access code for your location (for example, 011 for international
calls placed from the United States).
