Understanding Roaming
Tip:
Remember, when
you’re using your
phone off the
Sprint PCS Network,
always dial numbers
using 11 digits
(1 + area code +
number).
Tip:
You will pay a higher
per-minute rate for
roaming calls.
Tip:
When the clamshell is
closed, you will see the
roaming status on the
Sub LCD.
Understanding How Roaming Works
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know

whether your phone is operating in analog
cellular or digital mode. The following chart
indicates what you’ll see depending on where
