Understanding Roaming

Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re
off the Nationwide SprintPCS Network. Any time you are
roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ). If you are
roaming on a digital system, the roaming icon will be
displayed along with the text– Digital Roam – . If you are
roaming on an analog system, the roaming icon will be
displayed along with the text– Analog Roam – .
Tip: Remember, when you are using your phone off the Nationwide
SprintPCS Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code +
number).
Note: Unless your SprintPCS Service Plan includes roaming, you will pay a
higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.

Roaming on Other Digital Networks

When you’re roaming on other digital networks, your call
quality and security will be similar to the quality you receive
when making calls on the Nationwide SprintPCS Network.
However, you may notbe able to access certain features,
such as SprintPCS Vision.
Note:If you’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide SprintPCS Network
and enter an area where roaming is available , your call is dropped. If your call
is dropped in an area where you think SprintPCS Service is available, turn
your phone off and on again to reconnectto the Nationwide SprintPCS
Network.
