Understanding Roaming  
Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display

Your device’s Home screen always lets you know when  
you’re off the Sprint National Network. Anytime you are

and extra charges may apply when making or  
receiving a call.  
)
Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off  
the Sprint National Network. Your new Samsung ACETM  
works anywhere on the Sprint National Network and  
allows you to roam on other 1900 and 800 MHz digital  
networks where we’ve implemented roaming  
agreements with other carriers.  
Remember, when you are using your device off the  
Sprint National Network, always dial numbers using  
11 digits (1 + area code + number).  
Tip  
Roaming on Other Digital Networks  
This section explains how roaming works as well as  
special features that let you manage your roaming  
experience.  
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 Sprint National  
Network. However, you may not be able to access  
certain features, such as data services, depending on  
the available network.

Section 2D. Roaming  
       
Setting Your Device’s Roam Mode  
If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint National  
Network, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped  
in an area where you think Sprint service is available,  
turn your device off and on again to reconnect to the  
network.  
Note  
Your device allows you to control your roaming  
capabilities. Your device has a way of alerting you  
when you are roaming off the Sprint National Network:  
the onscreen roaming icon. By using the Roaming  
menu option, you can determine which signals your  
device accepts, and which network you will use.  
Checking for Voicemail Messages While  
Roaming  
Enabling the Roaming Option  
When you are roaming off the Sprint National Network,  
you may not receive automatic on-device notification of  
new voicemail messages. Callers can still leave  
messages, but you will need to periodically check your  
voicemail for new messages if you are in a roaming  
service area for an extended period of time.  
Choose from three different settings on your device to  
control your roaming experience.  
1. Press Start > All Programs > Settings > More... >  
Roaming.  
2. Use the navigation key to select an option in the

services while roaming.  
Depending on service availability and roaming  
agreements, your phone may be able to access data  
services while roaming on certain digital systems. You  
can set your phone to alert you when you are roaming  
off the Sprint National Network and try to use data  
services such as messaging.  
Never Ask turns your phone’s Data Roam Guard

Selecting a specific carrier is necessary only for  
providers on the GSM network. If your device has  
automatically selected a GSM network while traveling,  
you will need to set the device to CDMA to access  
CDMA data services.  
Getting Started with Data Services  
Before you can use Sprint Worldwide Data Services,  
you must first have these services activated on your  
account.  
To activate, call Sprint Worldwide Customer  
Service at 1-888-226-7212, option 2. Representatives  
assist you.  
Visit www.sprint.com/international for a list of services  
available for each country.  
Using Your SIM Card’s PhoneBook  
Once your services are activated, you may need to  
select a GSM data services provider for the country  
you’re in. (See “Selecting a Network” on page 183.)  
Your SIM card contains its own phone book that is  
separate from your device’s internal Contacts list. You  
can update and maintain the SIM PhoneBook  
whenever your device is in GSM mode, even if you are  
not in a GSM service area.  
Accessing Your Email and Data Services  
on CDMA Networks  
If data service is available on a CDMA network, then  
you only need to set the phone to CDMA mode; you will  
not need to select the specific carrier. See “Using Your  
Device in GSM Mode” on page 174.  
Your device must be in GSM mode for you to access  
the SIM card.  
Note  
Note  
While the phone is in GSM mode, device can edit  
Contacts stored within both the device and SIM card.  
While the device is in CDMA mode, the device can  
not access Contacts stored on the SIM card.  
178  
Section 3C. Sprint Worldwide Wireless Service  
 
When saving a Contacts entry to your SIM card, note  
that only the name and number are saved. Entries  
stored on the card do not contain any detailed  
information that may be stored in the device's internal  
memory. To store additional information for a particular  
contact, such as email addresses or dates, it is  
important to save that information to your device’s  
onboard memory.  
Each Contacts entry stored on the SIM card can use  
only one phone number, and the entry’s name can be a  
maximum of 255 characters.  
Adding Entries to the SIM PhoneBook  
Adding new entries to your SIM PhoneBook is similar  
to adding entries to the device’s internal Contacts list.  
To add a new SIM card phone book entry:  
When a SIM card is active, the Contacts list will then  
display two types of entries:  
1. Press Start > All Programs > Contacts > New (left  
softkey) > SIM Contact.  
2. Enter a name and phone number for the new  
entry. (See “Entering Text” on page 38.)  
Contacts entry - SIM Card

device be in GSM mode and in a GSM roaming  
coverage area. (See www.sprint.com/international for  
maps showing where international GSM coverage is  
available, and see “Entering GSM Mode” on  
page 174.)

Safety and Warranty  
Information  
   
Section 4A  
General Precautions  
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone  
properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.  
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.  
Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid  
spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately turn the  
power off and remove the battery.  
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of  
equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting,  
bending, or sitting on it.  
Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly  
approved in this document could void your warranty for this  
equipment and void your authority to operate this  
equipment.  
General Precautions

Owner’s Record  
Phone Guide Proprietary Notice  
For the best care of your phone, ensure that only  
authorized personnel service your phone and accessories.  
Failure to do so may be dangerous and void your warranty.  
Note  
This phone guide contains important operational and safety  
information that will help you safely use your phone. Failure to  
read and follow the information provided in this phone  
guide may result in serious bodily injury, death, or  
property damage.  
196  
Section 4A. Important Safety Information  
       
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio  
frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from wireless  
phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic  
equipment.  
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access  
to Your Phone  
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately  
shielded electronic operating systems and/or entertainment  
systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their  
representative to determine if these systems are adequately  
shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the  
manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added to  
your vehicle.  
Do Not Rely on Your Phone for Emergency Calls  
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot  
guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore you should  
never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential  
communication (e.g., medical emergencies). Emergency calls  
may not be possible on all cellular networks or when certain  
network services or mobile phone features are in use. Check  
with your local service provider for details.  
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices,  
such as pacemakers and hearing aids, to determine if they are  
adequately shielded from external RF signals.  
Using Your Phone While Driving  
Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone  
without a hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions.  
Laws vary as to specific restrictions. Remember that safety  
always comes first.  
Always turn off the phone in health care facilities and  
request permission before using the phone near medical  
equipment.  
Note  
Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying  
Following Safety Guidelines  
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent  
possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal  
Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have  
permission from a crew member to use your phone while the  
plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference, FCC  
air.  
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any  
special regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas  
where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or  
danger.  
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices  
Section 4A. Important Safety Information

Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas  
Using Your Phone With a Hearing  
Aid Device  
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone  
off when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs  
indicating two-way radios should be turned off. Construction  
crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.  
Your phone has been tested for for hearing aid device  
compatibility. When some wireless phones are used with  
certain hearing devices (including hearing aids and cochlear  
implants), users may detect a noise which can interfere with the  
effectiveness of the hearing device.  
Turn your phone off when you’re in any area that has a  
potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone  
and accessories could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an  
explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death. These  
areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include:  
Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this  
interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of  
interference noise they may generate. ANSI standard C63.19  
was developed to provide a standardized means of measuring  
both wireless phone and hearing devices to determine usability  
rating categories for both.  
Fueling areas such as gas stations.

Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist  
hearing device users find phones that may be compatible with  
their hearing device. Not all phones have been rated for  
compatibility with hearing devices. Phones that have been  
rated have a label located on the box. Your Samsung ACETM  
phone has an M3 rating.  
off your vehicle’s engine.  
Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids,  
Note  
or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that  
contains your phone or accessories.  
These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending  
on the user’s hearing device and individual type and degree of  
hearing loss. If a hearing device is particularly vulnerable to  
interference noise; even a phone with a higher rating may still  
cause unacceptable noise levels in the hearing device. Trying

Section 4A. Important Safety Information  
 
out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to  
evaluate it for your personal needs.  
“Turning Bluetooth On and Off” on page 126 for instructions to  
disable these components.  
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements for  
hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less  
interference to hearing devices than unrated phones. (M4 is the  
better/higher of the two ratings.)  
Sprint further suggests you experiment with multiple phones  
(even those not labeled M3/T3 or M4/T4) while in the store to  
find the one that works best with your hearing aid device.  
Should you experience interference or find the quality of  
service unsatisfactory after purchasing your phone, promptly  
return it to the store within 30 days of purchase. With the Sprint  
30-day Risk-Free Guarantee, you may return the phone within  
30 days of purchase for a full refund. More information about  
hearing aid compatibility may be found at: www.fcc.gov,  
www.fda.gov, and www.accesswireless.org.  
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and  
are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T  
Switch”or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. (T4 is the  
better/higher of the two ratings. Note that not all hearing  
devices have telecoils in them.)  
Hearing aid devices may also be measured for immunity to  
interference noise from wireless phones and should have  
ratings similar to phones. Ask your hearing healthcare  
professional for the rating of your hearing aid. Add the rating of  
your hearing aid and your phone to determine probable  
usability:  
at: www.fcc.gov, www.fda.gov, and www.accesswireless.org.  
Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience With  
Your Phone  
Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers  
excellent use.  
To further minimize interference:  
Set the phone’s display and keypad backlight settings to  
ensure the minimum time interval:  
Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.  
Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable.  
1. Press Start > All Programs > Settings > Power  
Management > Display time out or Keypad backlight time  
out.  
Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will  
have a combined rating of six for “excellent use.” This is  
synonymous for T ratings.  
Phones with embedded antennas may produce more  
interference.  
To ensure that the Hearing Aid Compatibility rating for your  
phone is maintained, secondary transmitters such as Bluetooth  
and WLAN components must be disabled during a call. See  
Section 4A. Important Safety Information

Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.  
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for  
a long period of time.  
Move the phone around to find the point with least  
interference.  
It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides  
acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of  
times before it needs replacing.  
Caring for the Battery  
Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long  
periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:  
Protecting Your Battery  
Less than one month:  
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your  
battery’s performance.  
-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)  
More than one month:  
-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)  
Recently there have been some public reports of wireless  
phone batteries overheating, catching fire or exploding. It  
appears that many, if not all, of these reports involve  
counterfeit or inexpensive, aftermarket-brand batteries with  
unknown or questionable manufacturing standards. Sprint is  
not aware of similar problems with Sprint phones resulting  
from the proper use of batteries and accessories approved  
by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone. Use only  
Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and  
accessories found at Sprint Stores or through your phone’s  
manufacturer, or call 1-866-343-1114 to order. They’re also  
available at www.sprint.com — click Accessories. Buying the  
right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure  
they’re genuine and safe.  
Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) Batteries  
For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries, contact your  
nearest authorized service center.  
Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In  
some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or office  
trash may be prohibited.  
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in  
temperatures that range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).  
Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high  
Never dispose of the battery by incineration.  
Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.

Section 4A. Important Safety Information  
 
Body-Worn Operation  
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy  
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if  
you wear a handset on your body, use an approved carrying  
case, holster or other body-worn accessory. Use of non-  
approved accessories may violate FCC RF exposure  
guidelines.  
Understanding How Your Phone Operates  
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When  
it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF)  
signals. When you use your phone, the system handling your  
call controls the power level. This power can range from 0.006  
watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.  
For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC Web  
site at www.fcc.gov.  
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless  
Phones  
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of  
RF energy absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless  
handset.  
Knowing Radio Frequency Safety  
The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP  
standards described below.  
In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers  
(IEEE) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)  
joined in updating ANSI’s 1982 standard for safety levels with  
respect to human exposure to RF signals. More than 120  
scientists, engineers and physicians from universities,  
government health agencies and industries developed this  
updated standard after reviewing the available body of  
research. In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission  
(FCC) adopted this updated standard in a regulation. In August  
1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the  
existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by  
the National Council of Radiation Protection and  
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing,  
measuring, and calculation process. It does not represent how  
much RF the phone emits. All phone models are tested at their  
highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in  
operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than  
the level reported to the FCC. This is because of a variety of  
factors including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone  
design and other factors. What is important to remember is that  
each phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs  
do not represent a variation in safety.  
Measurements (NCRP).  
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates  
a substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in  
Section 4A. Important Safety Information

SAR values between different model phones do not mean  
variations in safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard  
of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for use by the public.
