Understanding Roaming

Roaming Indicator on the Display Screen
The roaming indicator (
you're off the network available to you. You can set your roaming mode
to network only, analog only, or automatic, which then allows your
phone to automatically select the roaming mode when network service is
not available.
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: You will pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you're roaming on other digital networks, your call quality and
security will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls
while on the network available to you. You may not be able to access
certain calling features, such as call waiting.
Roaming on Analog Networks
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a similar
quality provided by other analog carriers today. Although some calling
features will be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and
access voicemail. You will experience a few differences:
You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out and
dropped calls.
Some calling features that are standard on the network available
to you, such as call waiting, and direct international dialing,
are unavailable.
Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are
roaming, you will not receive notification until you return to the
network available to you. While roaming, you should periodically
check your voicemail box for new messages by dialing
1+area code+phone number. Press
greeting and enter your pass code at the prompt.
