Using Call Guard

Your device has two ways of alerting you when you are roaming off the Sprint National Network: the onscreen roaming icon and Call Guard. Call Guard makes it easy to manage your roaming by requiring an extra step before you can place or answer a roaming call. (This additional step is not required when you make or receive calls while on the Sprint National Network.)

To turn Call Guard on or off:

On the Phone: Roaming screen, select On or Off.

Note

Call Guard is turned off by default on your phone.

 

Automatic speed recognition (ASR) and speed dialing are not available when you are roaming with Call Guard

 

 

enabled.

 

 

 

To place roaming calls with Call Guard on:

1.Press the Talk key to display the Phone screen.

2.Enter 1, the area code, and then the seven-digit number. After entering the number, press the Talk key.

3.A pop-up message then appears, informing you that roaming rates will apply. Tap Dismiss to close the message, and then tap 1 to place the call.

To answer incoming roaming calls with Call Guard on:

When you have an incoming roaming call, the Phone screen appears with a message notifying you that roaming charges may apply. Tap Answer if you want to accept the roaming call.

Note If the Call Guard feature is set to On, you may need to take extra steps to make and receive roaming calls.

Using Data Roam Guard

Depending on service availability and roaming agreements, your device may be able to access data services while roaming on certain digital systems. You can use the Data Roam Guard to alert you when you are roaming off the Sprint National Network and try to use data services such as messaging.

To set your Data Roam Guard notification:

On the Phone: Roaming screen:

Select Never ask and the Allow roaming check box to always allow data roaming without prior notification.

Select Never ask and then clear the Allow roaming check box to always disable data roaming.

Select Always ask to enable the Data Roam Guard to always display a confirmation message and alert whenever your device enters a roaming network.

Select Default to enable data roaming internationally. The Data Roam Guard may display a confirmation message and alert.

To use data services when Data Roam Guard is active:

When a notification message appears informing you that data roam charges may apply:

Tap Roam or OK to allow data roaming.

Tap Cancel if you don't want to allow data roaming.

Note If this is your first time using data roaming, the Data Roam Guard will display a second message, informing you about how to change the notification setting.
