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 activation

card included with your phone.

Unlocking Your Phone

To unlock your phone, follow these easy steps:

1. Press

to turn the phone on.

2. Press Unlock (

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.

Note:

3. Enter your four-digit lock code. (For security purposes,

the code is not visible as you type.)

If you can’t recall your lock code, try using the last four digits

of either your Social Security number or wireless phone

number or try 0000 or NATL (6285). If none of these work, call

Sprint Customer Service at 1-888-211-4PCS (4727).

Sprint PCS Account Passwords

As a Sprint PCS customer, you enjoy unlimited access to your

personal account information, your voicemail account, and

your Sprint PCS Vision® or Sprint Power Vision account. To

will need to create passwords to protect your privacy.

to sign on to www.sprint.com and to use when calling Sprint

Customer Service. Your default account password is the last

four digits of your Social Security number. If you are not the

account owner (if someone else receives the invoice for your

Sprint PCS Service), you can get a sub-account password at

www.sprint.com.

Voicemail Password

You'll create your voicemail password (or passcode) when you

set up your voicemail. See “Setting Up Your Voicemail” on

page 172 for more information on your voicemail password.

Sprint PCS Vision or Sprint Power Vision Password

With your A900M by Samsung, you may elect to set up a Sprint

PCS Vision or Sprint Power Vision password. This optional

password may be used to authorize purchase of Premium

Services content and to protect personal information on

multi-phone accounts.

For more information, or to change your passwords, sign on

to www.sprint.com or call Sprint Customer Service at

TTY Use With Sprint PCS Service

A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a

telecommunications device that allows people who are

deaf, 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 phone and

TTY device will connect via a special cable that plugs into your

phone's headset jack. If this cable was not provided with your

TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase

the connector cable.

When establishing your Sprint PCS Service, please call Sprint

Customer Service via the state Telecommunications Relay

Service (TRS) by first dialing

. Then provide

the state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.

To turn TTY Options on or off:

1. Press Menu > Settings > Others > TTY Options from

standby mode. (An informational message is displayed.)

2. Press

3. Select TTY Full, TTY + Hear, TTY + Talk, or TTY Off and

when a headset or TTY device is plugged in.

Note:

If TTY mode is enabled, the audio quality of non-TTY

devices connected to the headset jack may be impaired.

911 Emergency Calling

WARNING

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.

Controlling Your Roaming Experience

Understanding Roaming

Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode

Using Call Guard

Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off the

Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Your new digital dual-band

A900M 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.

Section 2D: Controll ing Your Roaming Experience

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

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 ( ).

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 Vision.

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:

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 as normal.

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

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.

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:

numbers are added to the beginning of the list and the oldest

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

Contacts). Duplicate calls (same number and type of call) may

only appear once on the list.

To view a Call History entry:

commands:

Ⅲ

Call <Name or #>

Send Email <Name>

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

saying “Call” followed by a name or nickname (see contact

list documentations for details) 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.

Section 2H: Using Your Phone’s Voice Services

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.”

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

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

Multimedia FAQs

1. Will I know if I'm receiving an incoming call while I'm

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 of the

Nationwide Sprint PCS Network or where service is

unavailable.

Note:

4. Are the videos that I'm viewing “live” videos?

It depends on the content provider. Some of the

channels available through Sprint TV stream live

content. Others provide media on demand with video

and audio clips that are refreshed throughout the day,

but that are not “live.”

5. After purchasing access to an Available Channel for a

monthly fee, do I receive any confirmation? That is, how do I

know it has been purchased?

The next time you access your media player's Channel

Section 2J : Using Your Phone’s Built-in Media Player

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Listings, the purchased channel title and corresponding

number will appear in the My Channels section.

6. Why are some channels already preloaded into the My

Channels section?

Some channels, such as Previews, are offered free of

charge as a customer courtesy. These channels

automatically appear in the My Channels section of

your Channel Listings.

7. If I don't subscribe to Sprint PCS Vision Plan, am I still able to

view the multimedia clips?

Yes; for service access charges, please consult your

Sprint PCS Service Plan or visit www.sprint.com.

8. How can I easily access a channel without having to scroll

through all the channels in my Channel Listings?

Each channel will have a number to the left of it. You

can simply press this number to quickly access the clips

located within that channel.

When entering the specific channel number, channels 01 - 09

do not require you to enter a “0.” For example, to access

channel “07,” just press the “7” key.

Tip:

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

word “loading” at the bottom of the screen?

This happens when the media player is in the process of

loading the data necessary to play the clip. It typically

occurs when there is heavy traffic on the network.

10. How can I cancel service if I decide I don't want it?

To cancel your Sprint TV Service, visit www.sprint.com and

sign on to My PCS with your account number and

password. From this page you have the ability to cancel

the service and/or any Available Channels to which you

subscribe.

11. If I place my stereo headphones on and insert them into the

phone's headset jack, can I close the flip while I am playing

an audio (or video) clip without interrupting the clip?

Yes. When you insert your stereo headset into the

phone's headset jack, the phone automatically goes

into “headset mode,” allowing you to close the flip and

continue playing the clip. (Likewise, if your phone is in

“headset mode,” a phone call will not become

disconnected by closing the flip.)

12. Can I surf to a different channel while I am playing a clip?

Yes; while you are playing a clip, you can use the up and

down navigation buttons to surf to a different channel.

A small pop-up screen will appear that tells you which

channel you are watching as well as other channels you

have access to. Use the navigation buttons to scroll

through the different channels. Once you find a channel

that you want to watch, scroll to it and press

(or

simply wait approximately three seconds) and the

channel will begin loading.

an online virtual identity.

Your user name will be automatically programmed into your

phone. You don't have to enter it.

Finding Your User Name

General Precautions

There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and

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.

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.

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 1-800-974-

Tip:

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.

Section 4A: Im portant Safety Information

235

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

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

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.

Caring for the Battery

Protecting Your Battery

The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s

performance.

ⅷ

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

1-866-343-1114 to order. They’re also available at www.sprint.com –

click the 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.

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

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

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.

Radiofrequency (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 Radiofrequency 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

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.

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

238

Section 4A: Im portant Safety Information

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

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 A900M are:

CDMA mode (Part 22):

Head: 0.920 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.687 W/kg

PCS mode (Part 24):

Head: 0.656 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.962 W/kg

FCC Radiofrequency Emission

This phone meets the FCC Radiofrequency Emission Guidelines.

FCC ID number: A3LSPHA900.

More information on the phone's SAR can be found from the following FCC

Web site: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid.

Owner’s Record

The model number, regulatory number and serial number are located on a

nameplate inside the battery compartment. Record the serial number in

the space provided below. This will be helpful if you need to contact us

about your phone in the future.
