Alerting Yourself to Roaming
Your phone has three ways of alerting you when you are
roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network: the on
screen roaming icon, a special ringer you can set for calls you
receive when roaming, and Call Guard.

The Roam Ringer feature allows you to set your phone to use
a distinct ringer when you receive calls while roaming off the
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.
To set the Roam Ringer:
1. Press
O
> Settings/Tools > Settings > Sounds > Ringer Type
> Roam Ringer.
2. Highlight Distinct to give your incoming roaming calls a
distinct ringer. Highlight Normal to give incoming
roaming calls a ringer that is not distinct from the calls
you receive when you are on the Nationwide Sprint PCS
Network.
3. Press

Using Call Guard
Call Guard makes it easy to manage your 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.)
To turn Call Guard on or off:
1. Press
O
> Settings/Tools > Settings > Roaming >
Call Guard.
