13 Select a public system

When you take your phone outside its home system, the phone is said to be roaming. The phone can search for home-type systems (that is, systems of the same type as your home system). Or, the phone can search for non- home-type systems.

Note: The options described here may not be available for your phone. See your service provider for information.

Your service provider programs a list of preferred systems into your phone. These are systems with which your service provider has roaming agreements. Your phone looks for these systems when you’re roaming.

1Press Menu 4 > 5 > 7 to tell your phone how to choose a public system (network).

Your selection remains active until you change it.

Any system: When service is not available in your home system, the phone searches for a preferred system of either type and then searches for a home-type system. Then it searches for a non- home-type system. The search continues until your phone finds a system that can be used.

Home type: When service is not available in your home system, the phone searches for a home-type system first. However, if a non-home-type system is found, then your phone will use this system.

Nonhome type: The phone searches for a non-home-type system only. The home-type system is not used.

Home only: The phone uses only its home system. It will not roam.
