Voicemail Notification
There are several ways your device alerts you to a new
message:
ⅷ By sounding the assigned ringer type.
ⅷ By displaying at the top of your screen.
ⅷ By flashing the notification LED (if enabled).
New Voicemail Message Alerts
When you receive a new voice message, you will see a
message in the Notification panel (see “Notifications
Panel” on page 16).
Retrieving Your Voicemail Messages
You can review your messages directly from your
wireless device or from any other touch-tone phone.
Using Your Device
1. Press and tap > Voicemail.
2. Tap a message to listen to it.
Using Another Phone to Access Messages
1. Dial your wireless phone number.
2. When your voicemail answers, tap .
3. Enter your passcode.
Clearing the Message Icon
Your device may temporarily continue to display the
message icon after you have checked your voice and
text messages.
Notes: When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint
Network, you may not receive notification of new
voicemail messages. Sprint recommends that you
periodically check your voicemail by dialing your area
code + your wireless phone number. When your
voicemail answers, press and enter your
passcode. Roaming rates apply when you access
voicemail while roaming off the Nationwide Sprint
Network.
Your device accepts messages even when it is turned
off. However, your device notifies you of new
messages only when it is turned on and you are in a
Sprint service area.
Tip: When you call voicemail from another phone, you first
hear the header information (date, time, and sender
information) for the message. To skip directly to the
message, tap during the header.
