Section 2: Understanding Your Phone
2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 44
ᮣ Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are
roaming, you will not receive notification until you return to the
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. While roaming, you should
periodically check your voicemail box for new messages by dialing
1+area code+your PCS Phone Number. Press when you hear
your greeting and enter your pass code 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 Sprint Nationwide PCS
Network and enter an area where roaming is available (whether digital or
analog), your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you
think PCS Service is available, turn your phone off and on again to
reconnect to the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network.
Note: When using your phone in analog mode, the handset may feel warm.
This behavior is normal for analog operation.
