Using Voicemail
Setting Up Voicemail
Tip: When you are roaming off the Sprint NationwidePCS Network, you
may not receive notification of new voicemail messages. It is
recommended that you periodically check your voicemail by dialing 1 +
area code + your phone Number.
The first thing you’ll want to do after activating your phone is set up your
voicemail. The voicemail option allows others to leave messages when
your phone is turned OFF, you are out of your coverage area, when you
choose not to answer a call, or when there is no signal. To set up your
Voicemail, see "Setting Up Your Voicemail" on page 11.
Knowing When You Have Messages
There are several different ways your phone alerts you of new messages:
By displaying a message on the screen.
By playing an assigned ringer type.
By a blinking red LED.
By displaying at the top of your screen for voicemail messages
or page/text messages.
If a text message is too long, you can use the scroll bars to move to the
next page.
New Voicemail Message Alerts
When you receive a new voicemail message, your phone alerts you and
displays the following options. To select an option, tap it on the screen.
Talk - Tap the Talk button to play the voicemail.
Cancel - Tap the Cancel button to clear the voicemail indicator.
