176 3A. Sprint Service: The Basics

Roaming Guards
Your device has two ways of alerting you when you are
roaming off the Nationwide Sprint Network: the
onscreen roaming icon and Roaming Guards.
Roaming Guards make it easy to manage your
roaming by requiring an extra step before you can
place or answer a roaming call, connect to data
services, or send an outgoing text message. (This
additional step is not required when you make or
receive calls while on the Nationwide Sprint Network.)
You can set the Roaming Guards to separately monitor
your voice, data, and outgoing text messages when
you’re roaming within or outside the United States.
To turn Roaming Guards on or off:
1. Press > .
2. Tap Settings > Wireless & networks >
Mobile networks > Roaming Guards.
