Controlling Roaming Charges Using Call Guard

Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off
the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network.

Your new dual

band/tri-mode VI-125 by LG works anywhere on the

Sprint Nationwide PCS Network and allows you to roam

on other analog and 1900 and 800 MHz digital networks

where we’ve implemented roaming agreements with other

carriers.

This section explains how roaming works as well as special

features that let you manage your roaming experience.
