Using the Battery
Battery Capacity
Your Sprint PCS Communicator is equipped with a Lithium
Ion (LiIon) battery. This allows you to recharge your battery
before it is fully drained. The battery provides
approximately 6 hours of continuous talk time or
approximately 10-28 days of continuous standby time,
depending on network configurations.
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon
blinks and the message Phone battery is low appears.
When the battery reaches 3% of its capacity, the battery icon
blinks, the message Phone battery is critically low
appears, and the module sounds an audible alert. When the
battery is empty, the module powers down and the message
Please recharge your phone battery appears.

Charging the Battery
Your Sprint PCS Communicator comes with a rechargeable
battery. You should charge the battery as soon as possible so
you can begin using your module.
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your
battery level becomes too low, your module automatically
turns off and you may lose some data. For a quick check of
your module’s battery level, glance at the Battery icon
located in the upper-right corner of the Phone application
screen. When the battery charge gets too low, the Battery
icon appears empty and starts to flash.
When you’re ready to charge your battery, it is vital that you
use only a Sprint PCS-approved charger, such as the travel
charger that came with your module (see page 5).
It generally takes about 4 to 5 hours to fully recharge a
completely rundown battery. With the Sprint PCS-approved
Lilon battery, it is okay to recharge the battery before it
becomes completely run down.
Using the Handspring Charging Cradle
If you are using your SB3000 with a rechargeable Visor
(such as the Visor Prism or Visor Edge), you can use the
charging cradle that came with your handheld to charge
your SB3000. Simply place your handheld into the
charging cradle while the SB3000 is installed to charge
both your handheld and the SB3000.
While the SB3000 is charging, the Battery LED is red. The
Batter LED turns green when the SB3000 is fully charged. It
takes about 4 to 5 hours to fully charge the battery.
Using the Desktop Charger
<This section is not applicable. OK to discard?>
When you’re ready to charge your battery, it is vital that you
use only Sprint PCS-approved desktop chargers and AC

adapter chargers. To use the desktop charger provided with
your module:
1. Plug the round end of the AC adapter into the charger
holder and the other end into the electrical outlet.
2. Insert the the module (with the battery installed) into
the slot.
䊳A red light on the charger lets you know the battery is
charging.
䊳A green light lets you know that the battery is at least
90 percent charged.
It generally takes about 4 to 5 hours to fully recharge a
completely rundown battery. With the Sprint PCS-approved

Future Capabilities
Your new module uses existing CDMA technology to provide
clear digital voice and data calling across the all-digital
Sprint PCS Nationwide Network.
Your module is also designed to support future cdma2000
1x data and voice enhancements to the Sprint PCS
Nationwide Network. These new enhancements promise to
deliver much faster data rates and a standby time of up to
28 days. As these new high-speed data and improved battery
capabilities are introduced, you will be given the
opportunity to upgrade the software in your module to
support these new services.

Sprint PCS Nationwide Network. Your new digital Sprint PCS
Communicator™ works anywhere on the Sprint PCS Nationwide Network

U.S. where competitive wireless service is available.

Understanding How Roaming Works
Recognizing When You’re Roaming
When you are roaming off the Sprint PCS Network,
appears in the status bar of your display screen.
<Need “R”icon.>
Roaming on Other PCS CDMA Networks
When you’re roaming on other PCS CDMA networks, your
call quality will be similar to the quality you receive when
making calls while on the Sprint PCS Network. You may not
be able to access certain calling features, such as SMS Text
Messages, however, all of your calls are still private and
secure.
Roaming on Analog Cellular Networks
<Not applicable. Confirmed by AirPrime. OK to remove?>
When you roam on analog cellular networks, you will
experience the same quality provided by analog cellular
carriers today. Although some calling features, such as
Sprint PCS Wireless Web, may be unavailable, you can still
make and receive calls. You will experience a few
differences including:
䊳You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk,
fade-out and dropped calls.
䊳Some calling features that are standard on the
SprintPCS Network are unavailable.
䊳There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and
cloning) that exist with conventional analog cellular
services today.
䊳Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use
your phone for analog cellular roaming.
Setting Your Module’s Roam Mode
Your Sprint PCS Communicator allows you to control your
ability to roam. By using the Roam Preferences menu
option, you determine whether your module allows digital

Tip:
If you’re on a call when
you leave the

<These two options have not been implemented on my
prototype. The info here is from UI doc v.6. Need to test.>
Your Sprint PCS Communicator features two options you
can set to alert you when roam charges will apply.
Call Guard
Call Guard alerts you when roaming charges apply to
outgoing calls. This feature makes it easy to manage your
roaming charges by requiring you to take an additional
step before placing a roaming call. This additional step is
not required when you make or receive calls while on the
Sprint PCS Nationwide Network.
To turn Call Guard off:
1. From the Options menu, tap Roaming Preferences.
2. Tap the checkbox next to Call Guard to deselect it.

Using Sprint PCS Voice Command
With Sprint PCS, the first wireless provider to offer
innovative Voice Command technology, reaching your
friends, family, coworkers, and teammates has never been
easier – especially when you’re on the go.
With Sprint PCS Voice Command:
䊳You store all your contacts right in your module, so you don’t
need to search through or keep a phone book close by.
䊳There’s no need to punch in a lot of numbers,
memorize voicemail passwords or try to dial while
you’re driving.
䊳You can call anyone at any time – even if you don’t
remember their phone number.
It’s Easy To Start
Just dial from your Sprint PCS
Communicator to activate the service. You can also dial
to go through a Sprint PCS Voice Command
tutorial directly from your module.
You can choose Sprint PCS Voice Command as your free
option when you sign up for the Sprint PCS Advantage
AgreementSM or you can add Sprint PCS Voice Command
for $10 per month in addition to your normal monthly
service plan rate.

Create Your Own Address Book
You can program up to 500 names into your personal
address book, with each name having up to five phone
numbers. That’s 2,500 phone numbers – and with the
advanced technology of Sprint PCS Voice Command – you
can have instant access to all of them.
There are four ways to update your address book:
䊳Choose Sprint PCS Voice Command and receive a fully
functional web-based address book where you can
create and update your contacts for free at
www.talk.sprintpcs.com.
䊳Upload your contacts from Microsoft® Outlook,
Microsoft Excel and other personal information software
into your address book for no additional charge.
䊳If you don’t have a computer or Internet access handy,
you can have Sprint PCS Directory Assistance look up
phone numbers for you and automatically add them to
your address book. Just say, “Call operator,” and we’ll
add two names and numbers to your address book for
our standard $0.99 directory assistance charge. Each
additional update added during the call is $0.50.
䊳Simply dial and say, “Add name.” You will
then be asked to say the name and number you want to
add to your personal address book. Your address book
can store up to 20 voice-entered names at one time.
How It Works
1. Once you’ve signed up for Sprint PCS Voice Command
and created your address book, all you do is dial
. You’ll hear a tone followed by the prompt
“Ready.”
2. After the “Ready” prompt, simply say, in a neutral
voice, the name of the person or the number you’d like
to call. You can say, “Call Jane at work,” “Call John on
his wireless phone,” “Call 555-1234” or “Look up
Bob.”
Tip:
You can also upload
your handheld’s
Address Book to your
Sprint PCS Voice
Command personal
address. Just sync your
Address Book with
Microsoft Outlook on
your PC, then upload
your contacts from
Outlook.
