92 3A. Wireless Service: The Basics

Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming

When you are roaming off the home network, you may not receive
on-phone 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 home network, voicemail notification will
resume as normal.
Setting Roam Mode
Your phone allows you to control your roaming capabilities. By
using the Roaming menu option, you can determine which signals
your phone accepts.
Choose from two different settings on your phone to control your
roaming experience.
1. Press > Settings > Others > Roaming > Set Mode.
2. Select an option:
Home Only to access only the home network and prevent
roaming on other networks.
Automatic to seek service on the home network. When
network service is unavailable, the phone searches for an
alternate service.
Call Guard
Your phone has two ways of alerting you when you are roaming
off the home 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 home network.)
To turn Call Guard on or off:
1. Press > Settings > Others > Roaming > Call Guard.
2. Select On or Off.
Note Call Guard is turned on by default on your phone.
Voice dialing and speed dialing are not available when you
are roaming with Call Guard enabled.
