Understanding Roaming

Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the home network. Whenever you are roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ).

Tip:

Remember, when you are using your phone off the network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).

Note:

You may pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.

Roaming on Other Digital Networks

When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality and security will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls on the home network. However, you may not be able to access certain features, such as Sprint Power Vision.

Note:

If you’re on a call when you leave the home network, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think network service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to the home network.
