Your service provider may have programmed a list of
preferred systems into your SIM card. Your phone may
search for systems in this list when service is not available
in your home system.
The analog system selection feature allows you to request
the order in which your phone looks for available systems.
Choosing a system-selection method
Use
Menu
4 4 2 to tell your phone how to select analog
systems.
Note: Using
Home only
or
Pref. system
is usually the most
economical choice.
Pref. system
If service is not available in your home
system, the phone searches for a preferred system of type A
or B, then a home-type system, then a non-home-type
system.
Home type
If service is not available in your home system,
the phone searches for a home-type system, preferred first.
Nonhome type
The phone searches for a non-home-type
system, preferred first.
Home only
The phone uses its home system only (that is, it
will not roam).
Note: In some areas, the wireless system automatically
recognizes roaming phones. In other areas, you need to
contact the service provider before the system can recognize
your phone. The operator needs to know your phone number,
your phone's IMEI or your analog module’s SN (serial number),
and how you plan to pay for your calls. There is normally an
additional charge for roaming calls.
Your phone’s IMEI is located on the back, under the battery.
Your analog module’s SN is located on the back of the
module. Your IMEI/SN can normally be read over the air by
roaming wireless service providers when you call them to
register your roaming presence on their wireless network.
