Yes. When I am @ my sister's place in Tampa, for some odd reason, SPCS doesn't work well there & drains all my battery.
I just switch over to force roam & grab the nearest VZW tower ( I suspect it is & not a ATT Tower) & walla, strong signal & less battery drain.
Also some ppl use it where they work due to inadequate coverage within buildings.
With force roam the handset has to spend less time & energy looking for a Sprint tower & just picks the most powerful tower & signal nearby....usually a VZW tower.
