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 ( ).
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 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 or Sprint Power Vision.
Note: 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 network service is available, turn
your phone off and on again to reconnect to the network available to
you.
