TTY Use With PCS Service From Sprint
A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone), is a
telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf or
hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to
communicate via a telephone.
Your phone is compatible with selected TTY devices. Please
check with the manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure that
it supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY
device will connect via a special cable that plugs into your
phone’s Headset Jack. If this cable was not provided with your
TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase
the connector cable.
When establishing your PCS Service, please call PCS Customer
Service Solutions
SM
via the state Telecommunications Relay
Service (TRS) by first dialing
. Then
provide the state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.
To turn TTY mode On or Off:

IMPORTANT NOTICE: 911 Emergency Calling
Sprint recommends that TTY users make emergency calls by other
means including Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS), analog
cellular, and landline communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be
corrupted when received by public safety answering points (PSAPs)
rendering some communications unintelligible. The problem encountered
appears related to TTY equipment or software used by PSAPs. This
matter has been brought to the attention of the FCC, and the wireless
industry and PSAP community are currently working to resolve this.
