Roaming
Section 2E. Roaming 75
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 Sprint National
Network. However, you may not be able to access
certain features, such as data services, depending on
the available network.
Checking for Voicemail Messages While
Roaming
When you are roaming off the Sprint National Network,
you may not receive on-phone notification of new
voicemail messages. Callers can still leave messages,
but you will need to periodically check your voicemail
for new messages if you are in a roaming service area
for an extended period of time.
1. Dial 1 + area code + your phone number.
2. When you hear your voicemail greeting,
press .
3. Enter your passcode at the prompt and follow the
voice prompts.
When you return to the Sprint National Network,
voicemail notification will resume as normal.
Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
Your phone allows you to control your roaming
capabilities. By using the Roaming menu option, you
can determine which signals your phone accepts.
Choose from two different settings on your dual-band
phone to control your roaming experience.
1. Select and press > Settings > More... >
Roaming > Set Mode.
Note
If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint National
Network, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped
in an area where you think Sprint service is available,
turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to the
network.
