Controlling Your Roaming Experience
In This Section
ࡗ ࡗ ࡗ ࡗ Understanding Roaming
Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off the
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Your new digital dual-band
M610 by Samsung works anywhere on the Nationwide
Sprint PCS Network and allows you to roam on other 1900
and 800 MHz digital networks where we’ve implemented
roaming agreements with other carriers.
This section explains how roaming works as well as special
features that let you manage your roaming experience.
95
Understanding Roaming
Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when
you’re off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Whenever you
are roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ).
Remember, when you are using your phone off the
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network, always dial numbers using
11 digits (1 + area code + number).
Tip:
Unless your Sprint PCS Service Plan includes roaming, you will
pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Note:
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 PCS Network.
However, you may not be able to access certain features, such
as Sprint PCS Vision or Sprint Power VisionSM.
If you’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide Sprint PCS
Network and enter an area where roaming is available, your
call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you
think Sprint PCS Service is available, turn your phone off and
on again to reconnect to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.
Note:
96
Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming
When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS
Network, you will not receive on-phone 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
time.
To check your voicemail while roaming:
1. Dial 1 + area code + your phone number.
2. When you hear your voicemail greeting, press
.
3. Enter your passcode at the prompt and follow the voice
prompts.
When you return to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network,
voicemail notification will resume normally.
97
Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
Your phone allows you to control your roaming capabilities.
By using the Roaming menu option, you can determine which
signals your phone accepts.
Set Mode
Choose from three different settings on your digital
dual-band phone to control your roaming experience.
To set your phone’s roam mode:
1. Select Menu > Settings > Roaming > Set Mode.
2. To select an option, highlight it, and press
.
Ⅲ
Ⅲ
Automatic seeks Sprint PCS Service. When Sprint PCS
Service is unavailable, the phone searches for an
alternate system.
Roaming only forces the phone to seek a roaming
system. The previous setting (Sprint Only or
Automatic) is restored the next time the phone is
turned on.
Ⅲ
Sprint allows you to access the Nationwide
Sprint PCS Network only and prevents roaming on
other networks.
98
Using Call Guard
Your phone has two ways of alerting you when you are
roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network: the
onscreen roaming icon and Call Guard. Call Guard makes it
easy to manage your roaming charges by requiring an extra
step before you can place or answer a roaming call. (This
additional step is not required when you make or receive calls
while on the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.)
To turn Call Guard on or off:
1. Select Menu > Settings > Roaming > Call Guard.
2. Read the message and when prompted, highlight On or
Off, and press
.
Voice dialing and speed dialing are not available when you
are roaming with Call Guard enabled.
Note:
To place roaming calls with Call Guard on:
1. From standby mode, dial 1 + area code + the seven-digit
number and press
.
2. Press
to confirm the Roaming rate notification and
complete the call.
To answer incoming roaming calls with Call Guard on:
1. Press
.
2. Select Answer (
).
If the Call Guard feature is set to On, you need to take an extra
step to make or receive roaming calls.
Note:
99
Using Data Roam Guard
Data Roam Guard asks you whether you want to roam off the
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Data Roam Guard makes it
easy to manage your roaming charges by requiring an extra
step before you access data during roaming. (This additional
step is not required while on the Nationwide Sprint PCS
Network.)
To turn Data Roam Guard on or off:
1. Select Menu > Settings > Roaming > Data Roam Guard.
2. Highlight Always Ask or Never Ask and press
.

Viewing History
You’ll find the Call History feature very helpful. It is a list of

entries are removed from the bottom of the list.
Each entry contains the phone number (if it is available) and
Contacts entry name (if the phone number is in your

voice-activated dialing and managing voice memos.
Section 2H: Using Your Phone’s Voice Services

Using Voice-Activated Dialing
In addition to Sprint PCS Voice Command (see page 217),
built-in voice recognition software allows you to say
commands to perform common functions supported by your
phone. There is no voice training required to use the voice
recognition feature. You simply say the predesignated
command displayed on your screen in a normal tone of voice
to perform the desired function.
To activate voice recognition:
1. Press and hold
. (The phone prompts you to say a
command.)
2. Wait for the beep and then say one of the following
commands:
Ⅲ
Ⅲ
Ⅲ
Ⅲ
Ⅲ
Ⅲ
Call <Name or #>
Send Text <Name>
Send Email <Name>
Lookup <Name>
Go To <App>
Check <Item>
When it recognizes one of these commands, the phone
launches the associated application. If the phone does not
hear a command within approximately eight seconds, it
deactivates voice recognition without taking any action.
130
Voice Launch
Voice Launch allows you to configure how to launch
Voice-Activated dialing.
To access voice launch:
1. Press Menu > Settings > Voice Service.
2. Select Voice Launch and press
.
3. Select Talk Key or Talk Key and Flip Open and press
.
Using Call <Name or #>
You can voice dial from your phone with a single command by
Nicknames” on page 132) and (optionally) a label stored in
your Contacts list; or say “Call” followed by a valid phone
number. You can also say “Call” by itself and be prompted for
the name or number.
Calling Contacts Entries
To place a call using Call <Name or #>:
1. Press and hold
.
2. Say “Call” followed by the name and the label for the
number you wish to call. For example, say “Call John
Mobile.” The phone dials the number stored for the
contact “John” with the label “Mobile.”
If the location recognized for the name does not have a
number stored in Contacts, your phone will play the message
“No number available, John Smith, Mobile,” and then launch
the Contacts application for that name.
Section 2H: Using Your Phone’s Voice Services
131
If a name has only a single number, or if you know the name
but are not sure which number to call, say “Call” followed by
the name only. For example, say “Call John.” If the name is
recognized and there is only one number for the name, your
phone immediately places the call. If there are multiple
numbers stored for the contact, the phone prompts you with
“Which Number?” and displays a list of options. You can select
an option by saying it or by using your keypad.
Calling Nicknames
Your Contacts list incorporates a field called “Nickname.”
When you add a nickname to a contact, you can say the
contact’s name or nickname when using the voice features.
For example, if you have a contact, “John Smith” stored in your
Contacts list, and you add, “Dad” to the nickname field, you
can call that contact by saying, “Call John Smith” or by saying
“Call Dad.”
If your Contacts list contains a name that you have difficulty
using with the voice features (such as some unusual or
foreign names), you can add a nickname for that contact that
spells out the proper pronunciation of that name.
Tip:
Calling Phone Numbers (Digit Dialing)
To voice dial a number that is not stored in your Contacts list:
ⅷ
Say “Call” followed immediately by a valid string of digits
to be dialed, for example, say “Call 555 555 5555.”
Speak naturally and clearly and remember to speak one digit
at a time—1-800 should be pronounced “One Eight Zero
Zero.”
132
Adapting Digit Dial
Digit Dialing is speaker independent, which means that no
training or adaptation is required. Some users with heavy
accents or unusual voice characteristics may find difficulty in
achieving high accuracy with speaker-independent Digit
Dialing, so the Adapt Digits feature allows users to
dramatically improve the digit accuracy through adaptation.
Users who get acceptable digit recognition accuracy will find
no additional benefit to performing the Adapt Digit
adaptation.
After you adapt Digit Dial, your phone will be customized to
your voice. Other people will not be able to use Digit Dial on
your phone unless they reset the phone to factory defaults.
ONLY adapt Digit Dial if the system is frequently
misrecognizing your speech. You can always restore the
system to its original factory setting.
Note:
Adaptation involves recording several digit sequences to
teach the system your voice. The adaptation process takes
about three minutes.
Tips for adapting Digit Dial:
ⅷ
ⅷ
ⅷ
ⅷ
Adapt digits in a quiet place.
Make sure you wait for the beep before starting to speak.
Speak clearly, but say each digit sequence naturally.
If you make a mistake while recording a sequence of
digits, or if there is an unexpected noise that spoils the
recording, you can say or select No when the prompt asks,
“Did the recording sound OK?” You will then be prompted
to rerecord the sequence.
Section 2H: Using Your Phone’s Voice Services
133
To adapt Digit Dial to your voice:
1. Menu > Settings > Voice Service.
2. Select Digit Dialing and press
.
3. Select Adapt Digits and press
to begin. (The phone
displays the first digit sequence.)
4. Wait for the beep, and then repeat the digits using a
normal tone of voice. (The phone plays back your
recording and asks “Did the recording sound OK?”)
5. If the recording is acceptable (no mistakes and no
background noises), say “Yes.”
6. If you need to rerecord the digits to fix any problems,
say “No.” (The phone then prompts you to say the digits
again.)
7. Wait for the beep, and then record the digits again.
(Repeat this step until you are satisfied with the
recording.)
8. After confirming that the recording is acceptable, repeat
the recording process with the next set of digits. (After
six sets of digits, the phone will ask you whether you
want to do more adaptation. Answer “Yes.”)
9. Repeat steps 6-8 for another six sets of digits. (After the
sixth set of digits, you will be halfway through the
session and the phone will ask “More Adaptation?”)
10. Select OK to continue for six more sets of digits, or
press
for partial adaptation. When you are finished
with a full session, you will reach a screen that reads,
“Adaptation Complete.”
134
It is recommended that you perform the complete
adaptation of Digit Dial at least once to achieve the
maximum benefit of this feature. If a partial adaptation is
performed, you can always return later and resume the
process from the halfway point.
Note:

number correctly, it might display a choice list and prompt
you with “Call?” followed by the first choice on the list. To
confirm the choice, say “Yes,” or to hear the next choice, say
“No.” You can also select the correct choice using your keypad.
To cancel the command, say “Cancel,” or to say the name or
number again, say “Repeat.”

viewing or listening to an audio clip?
No. All incoming calls will roll into voicemail while you
are playing a clip. If the caller leaves a voicemail, the
voicemail icon will appear on the screen.
2. How long are the clips? Will I know the estimated time it
will take to play the clip prior to accessing it?
Once you have selected a channel, you will see a listing
of the available clips, with the clip’s length appearing
after the clip’s title. In general, a clip’s duration will
depend on the story or content being provided, and can
be fairly short or as long as a few minutes.
3. Can I access a multimedia clip wherever I am, as long as I
have my phone?
As long as you are on the Nationwide Sprint PCS
Network, you will have access to the audio and video
clips.
Sprint TV Service does not work while roaming off the
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network or where service is
unavailable.

content. Others provide media on demand with video
and audio clips that are refreshed throughout the day,
but that are not “live.”

Tip:
9. What does it mean when the video pauses and I see the

maintaining safe, satisfactory service.
ⅷ
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.
ⅷ
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.
ⅷ
ⅷ
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.
For the best care of your phone, only Sprint authorized
personnel should service your phone and accessories. Failure
to do so may be dangerous and void your warranty.
Note:
226
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to
Your Phone
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 and/or mobile phone features are in use.
Check with your local service provider for details.
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.
Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local Sprint
Store, or call the Sprint PCS Accessory Hotline at
Tip:
®
1-800-974-2221 or by dialing #222 on your phone.
Following Safety Guidelines
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
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF)
signals. However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately
shielded electronic equipment.
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.
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.
227
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
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 regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is
in the air.
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas
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.
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:
ⅷ
ⅷ
ⅷ
ⅷ
Fueling areas such as gas stations.
Below deck on boats.
Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust,
or metal powders.
ⅷ
Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle’s engine.
Never transport or store flammable gas or liquids or
explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains
your phone or accessories.
Note:
Restricting Children’s Access to Your Phone
Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as they could
hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or make calls that increase
your Sprint PCS invoice.
228
Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s
performance. 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 PCS® phones resulting from the proper use of batteries and
accessories approved by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone. Use
only Sprint- or manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories found at
Sprint Stores or through your phone’s manufacturer, or call 1-866-343-
Wireless link under “Personal,” and then click Accessories under “Shop
Sprint PCS Online.” “Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best
way to ensure they’re genuine and safe.
ⅷ
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that
range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).
ⅷ
Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity
areas, such as the bathroom.
ⅷ
ⅷ
ⅷ
ⅷ
Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
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.
ⅷ
ⅷ
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.
Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of
time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:
Ⅲ
Less than one month:
-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)
Ⅲ
More than one month:
-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)
Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) Batteries
For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest
Sprint authorized service center.
Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas,
the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.
229
Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid
Device
Your Sprint Nextel phone has been tested for hearing aid device
compatibility. When some wireless phones are used near some hearing
devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing,
humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than
others to this interference noise and phones also vary in the amount of
interference they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their
mobile phones, to assist hearing device users in finding phones that may
be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated.
Phones that have been rated have a label located on the box.
SM
Your Sprint Power Vision M610 phone by Samsung has an M4 rating and
a T3 rating.
These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the level
of immunity of your hearing device and degree of your hearing loss. If your
hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be
able to use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your
hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely
to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not
labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
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.)
The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely you are to
experience interference noise from your wireless phone. Hearing aid
devices 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:
ⅷ
ⅷ
ⅷ
Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers best use.
Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable.
230
Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will have a
combined rating of six for "best use." This is synonymous for T ratings.
Sprint Nextel 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.
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 “Turning Bluetooth On and
Off” on page 184 for instructions to disable these components.
Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience With Your Phone
To further minimize interference:
ⅷ
There is usually less interference on the microphone setting than the
telecoil setting.
ⅷ
Set the phone’s Display and Keypad backlight settings to ensure the
minimum time interval:
1. Select Menu > Settings > Display > Backlight.
2. Select Main Display or Keypad and press
3. Select the minimum time settings (8 seconds) and
press
.
.
ⅷ
ⅷ
ⅷ
Use phones with a pull-out antenna. Phones with embedded
antennae may produce more interference.
Position the phone so the antenna is farthest away from your hearing
aid.
Move the phone around to find the point with the least interference.
231
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
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.
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 Measurements (NCRP).
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a
handset on your body, use the Sprint supplied or approved carrying case,
holster or other body-worn accessory. Use of non-Sprint approved
accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.
For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC Web site at
232
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.
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.
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a
substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in 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.
The highest reported SAR values of the M610 are:
CDMA mode (Part 22):
Head: 0.938 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.646 W/kg
PCS mode (Part 24):
Head: 1.09 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.731 W/kg
FCC Radio Frequency Emission
This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines.
FCC ID number: A3LSPHM610.
