Your phone automatically searches for the last network used. If, for any reason, this network is unavailable, your phone will attempt to register with a new network.

The Home network.

PCS Networks from a preferred list.

A random list of other networks found above a certain signal strength.

All remaining PCS networks in descending order of signal strength. Any forbidden networks, stored in the SIM card, will not be included in the sorted list.

Available Networks

When selected, this option will scan to see which networks are operating in your current location. When you see a network you wish to register with or store in your preferred list, press O.

You will now enter the Register Now and Make Preferred
