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 Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.
However, depending on the network available where you are roaming, certain features may not be available.
Note:
If you’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network and enter an area where roaming is available, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think Sprint PCS service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.
