TTY Access With PCS Service 
From Sprint
A TTY (Text Telephone), also known as a TDD (Teletype Device 
for the Deaf), is a telecommunications device that allows 
people who are deaf 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 Nokia phone is 
equipped with a universal 2.5mm accessory jack that can be 
used to connect the cable of a “cellular ready” or “cellular 
compatible” TTY/TDD device to your phone. If this cable was 
not provided with your TTY device, contact your TTY device 
manufacturer to purchase the connector cable.
When establishing your PCS Service, please call 
PCS
 Customer SolutionsSM via the state Telecommunications 
Relay Service (TRS) by first dialing 
   . Then 
provide the state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.
To turn TTY Mode on or off:
1.Connect the TTY/TDD device to your phone.
2.Press Menu, scroll to Settings, and press Select.
3.Scroll to Enhancement settings and press Select.
4.Scroll to TTY and press Select.
Note: If TTY mode is enabled, the audio quality of non-TTY devices connected to the headset jack may be impaired.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: 911 Emergency Calling Sprint recommends that TTY users make emergency calls by other means 
including Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and 
landline communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted 
when received by public safety answering points (PSAPs) rendering some 
communications unintelligible. The problem encountered appears related 
to TTY equipment or software used by PSAPs. This matter has been 
brought to the attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry and PSAP 
community are currently working to resolve this.

Understanding Roaming

Setting Your Phone’s Roaming Mode

Controlling Roaming Charges Using Call Guard
oaming is the ability to make or receive calls while you’re off 
the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. Your new 
dual-band/tri-mode PCS Phone works anywhere on the enhanced 
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network and allows you to roam on other 
networks where we’ve implemented roaming agreements with 
other carriers and in limited areas where 1900
 MHz digital 
networks are available.
This section explains how roaming works and explores special 
features that let you manage your roaming experience.

Understanding Roaming
Roaming Indicator on the Display Screen
The roaming indicator  on your display screen lets you know 
when you’re off the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. 
You can set your roaming mode to Sprint only, analog only, or 
automatic, which then allows your phone to automatically 
select the roaming mode when Sprint service is not available.
Tip: Remember, when you are using your phone off the enhanced Sprint 
Nationwide PCS Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits 
(1 + area code + number).
Note: You will pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you’re roaming on other digital networks, your call 
quality and security will be similar to the quality you receive 
when making calls while on the enhanced Sprint Nationwide 
PCS
 Network. You may not be able to access certain calling 
features, such as PSC Voice Command or call waiting.
Roaming on Analog Networks
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a 
similar quality provided by other analog carriers today. 
Although some calling features will be unavailable, you can still 
make and receive calls and access voicemail. You will 
experience a few differences:

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

Some calling features that are standard on the enhanced 
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network, such as call waiting, and 
direct international dialing, are unavailable.

Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are 
roaming, you will not receive notification until you return to 
the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. While 
roaming, you should periodically check your voicemail box 
for new messages by dialing 1+area code+PCS
 Phone

Number. Press  when you hear your greeting and enter 
your pass code at the prompt.

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

Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your 
phone for analog roaming.
Note: If you’re on a call when you leave the enhanced Sprint Nationwide 
PCS Network and enter an area where roaming is available (whether 
digital or analog), your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area 
where you think PCS Service is available, turn your phone off and on again 
to reconnect to the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network.
Note: When you are using your phone in analog mode, the handset may feel warm. This behavior is normal for analog operation.
Setting Your Phone’s Roaming Mode
Your PCS Phone allows you to control your ability to roam. By 
using the system menu’s roaming options, you determine 
which signals your phone accepts. You can choose from three 
different settings on your dual-band/tri-mode phone.
To set the mode:
1.Press Menu, scroll to Settings, and press Select.
2.Scroll to Roaming and press Select.
3.Scroll to Set mode and press Select.
4.Scroll to your preferred mode and press Select.

Sprint: Lets you make and receive calls on the enhanced 
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network only and prevents roaming.

Automatic: Searches for alternative wireless networks 
when PCS Service is not available.

Analog only: After activating Analog only, your phone 
operates in analog mode until you turn off the phone. 
When turned on, your phone defaults to Automatic 
mode.

Controlling Roaming Charges Using 
Call
 Guard
In addition to the roaming icon, Call Guard alerts you when 
roaming charges apply. This feature makes it easy to manage 
your roaming charges by reminding you when you make or 
receive roaming calls. It also requires you to take additional 
steps before placing or answering a roaming call. These 
additional steps are not required when you make or receive 
calls while on the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS
 Network.
To turn the Call Guard feature On or Off:
1.Press Menu, scroll to Settings, and press Select.
2.Scroll to Roaming and press Select.
3.Scroll to Call guard and press Select.
4.Highlight On or Off and press Select.
Note: Voice Dialing and Speed Dialing are not available when you are roaming with Call Guard enabled.
To place a roaming call with Call Guard On:
1.From the standby mode, enter an 11-digit phone number  
(1 + area code + number) .
2.Press . (The message “Roaming rate applies. Place call?” 
is displayed.)
3.Press OK to place the call. 
To answer a roaming call with Call Guard On:
1.To answer a roaming call (the message “Roam call” is 
displayed.), press Answer. (The message “Roam rate applies. 
Answer call?” is displayed.)
2.Press OK to accept the call.
Remember if the Call Guard feature is set to On, you need to 
take extra steps to make and receive roaming calls even if you 
have selected the Analog setting.
