Understanding Roaming

RecognizingtheRoamingIconontheDisplayScreen

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the Sprint National Network. Any time you are roaming,

the phone displays the roaming icon ( ).

Tip:	Remember, when you are using your phone off the Sprint
	National Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 +
	area code + number).

Note:	Unless your Sprint service plan includes roaming, you will pay
	a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.

RoamingonOtherDigitalNetworks

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 Sprint National Network. However, you may not be able to access certain features, depending on the available network.

Note: If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint National 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 service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to the Sprint National Network.
