GSM/UMTS networks.

Anytime you are roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ). If you are roaming on a
digital system, you will see the roaming icon along with the text – Digital Roam – .
Roam on Other Digital Networks

quality you receive when making calls on the Nationwide Sprint Network. However, you may not
be able to access certain features, such as data services, depending on the available network.
Note: If you‟re on a call when you leave the Nationwide Sprint Network, your call will be
dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think Sprint service is available,
turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to the network.
