Understanding Roaming
Note:
You will pay a higher
per-minute rate for
roaming calls.
Tip:
If you’re on a call
when you leave the
network available to
you and enter an
area where roaming
is available, your call
is dropped. If your
call is dropped in an
area where you
think service is avail-
able, turn your
phone off and on
again to reconnect
to the network.
Understanding How Roaming
Works
Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets
you know when you’re off the network
available to you. The following chart
indicates what you’ll see depending on
where you’re using your phone.

Roaming on Other PCS CDMA Networks
When you’re roaming on other PCS
CDMA networks, your call quality
will be similar to the quality you
receive when making calls while on
the network. You may not be able to
access certain calling features, such as
wireless Internet, however all of your
calls are still private and secure.
