Note
: Turning Location on will allow the network to detect your position using GPS technology,
making some Sprint applications and services easier to use. Turning Location off will disable the
GPS location function for all purposes except 9-1-1, but will not hide your general location based on
the cell site serving your call. No application or service may use your location without your request or
permission. GPS-enhanced 9-1-1 is not available in all areas.
Roaming
Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls and access data services when you’re off the
Nationwide Sprint Network.
Roaming Icon
Your display screen always lets you know when you’re off the Nationwide Sprint Network. Anytime
you are roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon (
).
Note
:
Sprint Direct Connect
- Direct Connect services are not available while roaming off the
Nationwide Sprint Network.
Roaming on Other Networks
When you’re roaming on other networks, your call quality and security will be similar to the quality
you receive when making calls on the Nationwide Sprint Network. However, you may not be able to
access certain features, such as data services, depending on the available network.
Note
: If you’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide Sprint Network, 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 network.
Check for Voicemail Messages While Roaming
When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint 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.
