Using Voicemail
Setting Up Your Voicemail
All unanswered calls to your phone are automatically
transferred to your voicemail, even if your phone is in use or
turned off. Therefore, you will want to set up your Sprint
Voicemail and personal greeting as soon as your phone is
activated. If you need to set up your voicemail, see “Setting
Up Your Voicemail” on page 5.
Voicemail Notification
There are several ways your phone alerts you to a new
message:
ⅷ By displaying a message on the screen.
ⅷ By sounding the assigned ringer type.
ⅷ By displaying at the top of your screen.
Note:
When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS
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.
When your voicemail answers, press
*
and enter your
passcode.
Your phone accepts messages even when it is turned off.
However, you are only notified of new messages when your
phone is turned on and you are in a Sprint service area.
