Phone Features
Controlling Your Roaming Experience
Your device is digital dual-band, which means you can make and receive calls while on the
Sprint National Network and you can also roam on other digital networks where Sprint has
implemented agreements with other carriers.
When you roam outside the Sprint National Network, the Roaming icon appears at the top
of the screen. Additional charges may apply if you use your Centro device’s wireless service
while roaming.

Feature Availability
䢇 You can make and receive calls while roaming.
䢇 You can access voicemail while roaming.
䢇 Other features that are standard on the Sprint National Network, such as call waiting and
Sprint Power Vision, may be available depending upon your roaming network.
Setting Roaming Preferences
Use Roaming Preferences to set specific options for using your phone while roaming on
another network. For example, you can set options to be notified that you are roaming before
placing a call or making a data connection, so that you are aware that you might incur extra
charges.
WARNING
911 Emergency Calling
Sprint recommends that TTY users make emergency calls by other means,
including Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and
land-line 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 it.
