Enhanced Roaming
Cellular systems are identified by a number called Sys- tem Identifier or SID.Your phone is equipped with a Pre- ferred Roaming List (PRL) which can be programmed by your Carrier to take advantage of the families of cel- lular system (SIDs) that your Carrier owns, or has spe- cial billing arrangements with, in different cities.
In your Home System Area, both “
” and “ Rm” are not displayed on your phone. Outside of the Home System in Service Areas closely associated with your Carrier, the phone’s display may appear the same as when op- erating in the Home System.
In areas where your Carrier has Roaming agreements, your phone will display a steady “ Rm” indication. If your display indicates a flashing “ Rm”, you are in a cellular system which is not associated with your Carrier (you can still make or receive calls).
If your display indicates a flashing “
”, you may have to change your A/B System Selection or NAM Selection in order to obtain service. If your display indicates “
”, you are in an area where there is no cellular service.
