Data Counter
Use Data Counter to view the amount of data that has been sent 
or received (or a total of both) using the data services that your 
phone supports, such as Axcess Shop. The Data Counter can be 
a helpful tool for monitoring data usage, especially if your service 
agreement has specified limits.

Roaming
What is Roaming?
Roaming lets you use your phone when you travel outside of your 
Wireless Provider’s coverage area. The Roaming icon (
)
appears in the top line of the display when Roaming is active, 
and extra charges may apply when making or receiving calls. 
Some features may be unavailable while roaming. Roaming also 
consumes additional power from the battery requiring more 
frequent recharging. Contact your Wireless Provider for more 
information about Roaming. 
How Roaming Works
Roam Option lets you set roaming preferences if you move in and 
out of your home network. The following roaming options are 
available: 
•
MetroPCS only — Your phone is available for normal operation only in
the designated coverage area.
•
Automatic — Your Wireless Provider’s Preferred Roaming List (PRL) of
networks is used to acquire service. If no preferred networks are 
found, any digital system is acquired. 
Tip: For more information, refer to “System Select” on page 80.
