I posted last week in a slightly different context but didn't see any responses. However I think there may be something happening here that Sprint doesn't want to talk about, or that Tech Support doesn't know about, and would really appreciate any insights.
I'm data roaming on European networks and my Wi-Fi switches itself on whenever (and only when) I am actively connected to the GSM networks here. I've booted in safe mode, verified all settings, disabled/killed Connections Optimizer, turned off location services, etc.
I started a Reddit thread to ask about similar behavior and a few other users confirmed seeing the same whenever data roaming (even domestically).
It seems like Sprint (or Samsung?) might have put in a "feature" to save data usage when possible in a roaming situation, but it is instead A) killing my battery, and B) causing my phone to connect to certain networks at times I don't want to connect to them.
Is my phone just being glitchy, or is this something else?
