- Use the available analog network.
Note: If you turn your phone's power off then on, depending on
your service provider, the system may return to the default
selection.
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
home system (the type
A
system in your current location).
The type
B
system would be a non-home system.
However, in an area where no home or preferred systems are
available, use this menu to manually choose which system
your phone uses.
