96 Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience
Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
Your phone allows you to control your roaming capabilities.
By using the
Roamingmenu option, you can determine which
signals your phone accepts.
SetMode
Choose from three different settings on your phone to control
your roaming experience.
To set your phone’s roam mode:
1. Select >Settings > Others > Roaming > Set Mode.
2. To select an option, highlight it and press .
SprintOnly allows you to access the Nationwide
Sprint PCS Network only and prevents roaming on
other networks.
Automaticseeks Sprint PCS Service. When Sprint PCS
Service is unavailable, the phone searches for an
alternate system.
Roaming Only forces the phone to seek a roaming
system. The previous setting (Sprint Only or
Automatic) is restored the next time the phone is
turned on.
Using Call Guard
Your phone has two ways of alerting you when you are
roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network: the onscreen
roaming icon and Call Guard. Call Guard makes it easy to
manageyour roaming charges by requiring an extra step
before you can place or answer a roaming call. (This additional
step is not required when you make or receive calls while on
the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.)
