Toredialyourmostrecentcall(outgoing, incoming, or missed), pressTALK twice.

When making calls off the Sprint National Network, always dial using 11 digits (1 + area code + phone number).

You can also place calls from your phone by using Sprint Voice Command (page 179), speed dialing numbers from your Contacts (page 39), and using your Call History listings (page 92) and by using Voice-Activated Dialing (page 118).

Note:

To use a Voice Dial, you must have stored Voice Dial entries. (See “Programming Voice Dial Tags”on page 119.)
