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 Nationwide Sprint
Network. However, you may not be able to access
certain features, such as data services, depending on
the available network.

Roaming on Analog Networks

When you roam on analog networks, you will
experience quality similar to that provided by other
analog carriers today. Although some features, such as
Web, will be unavailable, you can still make and receive
calls and access voicemail. If you are accustomed to
Sprint service, you may notice some of the following
differences when using analog service:

You are more likely to experience static, crosstalk,
fade-out, and dropped calls.

Some features which are standard on the Nationwide
Sprint Network, such as call waiting, data services,
and direct international dialing, may be unavailable.

Though callers can leave voicemail messages while
you are roaming, you may not receive notification until
you return to the Nationwide Sprint Network. (See
“Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming”
on page 108.)

There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping
and cloning) that exist with conventional analog
services today.

Your battery’s charge will deplete more quickly and
you will need to recharge it more often when you use
your phone for analog roaming.

Note

When using your phone in analog mode, the phone
may feel warm. This is normal for analog operation.

Note

If you’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide
Sprint Network, your call is 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.
