[Service Provider’s Name] means your phone will
attempt calls via your service provider’s system only. If
your service provider’s system is unavailable, your phone
will display No service.
Digital/analog allows you to tell your phone to select the
available digital or analog network automatically, or you
can manually choose a digital or analog network .
Which system should you choose?
By default, your phone is set to automatically search for
the most cost-effective system when you are outside of
your home area. For example, if your home system is type
A and you are roaming, your phone will automatically try
to use the local hometype system (the type A system in
your current location). The type B system would be a non
home-type system.
However, in an area where no home or preferred systems
are available, use this menu to manually choose which
system your phone uses.
By setting your phone to use a home-type or a preferred
system, it’s possible for you to receive discounted
roaming charges. Check with your service provider to
maximize use of this feature.
In non-preferred systems, normal roaming charges are
determined by the host system. Your phone is designed to
select a system most favorable to you concerning the cost
of the call and reception quality.
Note: When roaming in some systems, you may need to have a
roaming agreement in order to place a call. If no roaming
agreement has been arranged, a network operator may interrupt
and request information on how you intend to pay for the call.
Note: Powering the phone off & back on again will reset any
manual overrides for analog or non-preferred systems.
If you have more than one phone number
The currently-selected NAM in your phone determines
which system is your current home system.
