Roaming

This section explains how roaming works as well as special features that let you manage your roaming experience

Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen

Your device’s Home screen always lets you know when you’re off the network. Anytime you are roaming, the device displays the roaming icon ( R ) and extra charges may apply when making or receiving a call.

Tip: Remember, when you are using your device 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, you may not be able to access certain features, such as web services.

Note: If you’re on a call when you leave the network and enter an area where roaming is available, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think service is available, turn your phone Off and On again to reconnect to the network.

Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming

When you are roaming off the network, you may not receive automatic on-device notification of new voicemail messages. Callers can still leave messages, but you will need to periodically check your voicemail for new messages if you are in a roaming service area for an extended period of time.

1.Dial 1 + area code + your phone number.

2.When you hear your voicemail greeting, press .

3.Enter your passcode at the prompt and follow the voice prompts. When you return to the network, voicemail notification will resume as normal.
