Getting Started With Sprint PCS Service

Determining if Your Phone is Already Activated

If you purchased your phone at a Sprint Store, it is probably activated, unlocked, and ready to use. If you received your phone in the mail, it probably has been activated; all you need to do is unlock it.

If your phone is not activated, please refer to the Welcome to Sprint brochure included with your phone.

Unlocking Your Phone

To unlock your phone, follow these easy steps:

1.Press and hold for a few seconds to turn the phone on.

2.Press Unlock ( ).

Note: To select a softkey, press the softkey button directly below the softkey text that appears at the bottom left and bottom right of your phone???s display screen. Softkey actions change according to the screen you???re viewing and will not appear if there is no corresponding action available.

3.Enter your four-digit lock code. (For security purposes, the code is not visible as you type.)

Tip: If you can???t recall your lock code, try using the last four digits of either your Social Security number or Sprint PCS Phone number or try 0000 or NATL (6285). If none of these work, call Sprint Customer Service at 1-888-211-4PCS (4727).

Controlling Your Roaming Experience

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. Any time you

are roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ).

Tip: Remember, when you are using your phone off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).

Note: Unless your Sprint PCS Service Plan includes roaming, you will pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.

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.

Note: 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.

Setting Your Phone???s Roam Mode

Your Sprint PCS Phone allows you to control your roaming capabilities. By using the Roaming menu option, you can determine which signals your phone accepts.

Sprint PCS Network only and prevents roaming on other networks.

New Features

Your MM-A880???s voice recognition feature lets you perform many of your phone's functions using just your voice. If you have used VoiceSignal voice recognition on previous

Sprint PCS Phones, please review the following list of enhancements.

???Natural one-step commands - Instead of a series of commands, you can now issue single voice commands to accomplish a variety of complex tasks.

For example:

??????Call John Mobile???: Dials the mobile number stored for the contact entry ???John.???

??????Call Maria Work???: Dials the work number stored for the contact entry Maria.

??????Call 555-555-5555???: Dials the specified number.

???One-step voice access to text messaging - The ???Send Text??? command lets you use a single voice command to launch the phone's text messaging client and specify a recipient.

For example:

??????Send Text to John???: Opens the text message client and addresses the message to the mobile number of the contact entry ???John???.

???One-step access to applications and menus - You can access applications and common menus by saying ???Go To??? followed by the application or menu name.

For example:

??????Go To Calendar???: Launches the ???Calendar??? application.

??????Go To Downloads???: Displays the ???Downloads??? menu.

Using Voice-Activated Dialing

Voice recognition 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 pre-designated 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 voice command.)

Tip: Voice Activated dialing can also be configured to prompt you when the flip is opened. For more information, See ???Voice Launch??? on page 143.

2.Wait for the beep and then say one of the following commands:

???Call <Name or #>

???Send Text <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 de- activates voice recognition without taking any action.

Using Call <Name or #>

You can voice dial from your phone with a single command by saying ???Call??? followed by a name or nickname and (optionally) a label stored in your contact list, or ???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 that number. 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, VoiceSignal will play the message ???No number available, John Smith, Mobile,??? and then launch the Contacts application for that name.

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, VoiceSignal 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 Contact 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.

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.

Note: ONLY adapt Digit Dial if the system is frequently mis- recognizing your speech. You can always restore the system to its original factory setting.

Adaptation involves recording several digit sequences to teach the system your voice. The adaptation process takes about 3 minutes.

Tips for adapting Digit Dial:

???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 re-record the sequence.

To adapt Digit Dial to your voice:

1.Press Menu () to access the main menu.

2.Select Settings ( ).

3.Select Voice Service ().

4.Select Digit Dialing ( ).

5.Select Adapt Digits () and press to begin. (The phone displays the first digit sequence.)

6.Wait for the beep, and then repeat the digits using a normal tone of voice. (The phone plays back your recording and asks you if the recording sounds ???OK.???)

7.If the recording sounds OK (no mistakes and no background noises), say Yes.

8.If you need to re-record the digits to fix any problems, say No. (The phone then prompts you to say the digits again.)

Resetting Digit Dial Adaptation

1.Press Menu () to access the main menu.

2.Select Settings ( ).

3.Select Voice Service ().

4.Select Digit Dialing ( ).

5.Select Reset Digits ().

6.Press the navigation key up or down to select Yes and press .

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.???
