TTY UseWith Sprint PCS Service

A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a

or hard of hearing, or who have speech or language
disabilities, to communicate by telephone.

Your phone is compatible with select 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.
