100 Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience
Understanding Roaming
Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re
off the network available to you. Any time you are roaming,
the phone displays the roaming icon (
). If you are roaming
on a digital system, the roaming icon will display along with
the text
Digital Roam , and on an analog system, with the text
Analog Roam .
Tip:
Remember, when you are using your phone off the network available to
you, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).
Note:
Unless your service plan includes roaming, you will pay a higher
per-minute rate for roaming calls.
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 network available to you. However, you may not be
able to access certain features, such as Sprint PCS Vision.
Note:
Ready Link Service is not available in roaming areas.
Note:
If you’re on a call when you leave the network available to you and
enter an area where roaming is available (whether digital or analog), your
call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think network
service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to the
network available to you.
