IPhone 4S :: How To Turn Off Roaming
Jun 17, 2014
I don't want to be charged for roaming data. I know where the Cellular Data and Roaming options are in Settings, though I don't know which I leave checked and unchecked for best results. I do not want to be charged for roaming data in any way on any app. Do I have to do anything with location services or anything else, also? (And, just to clarify: if I turn off roaming, I can still iMessage for free on Wifi, correct?) I'm using an iPhone 4S with the most current version of iOS 7 as of this post.

I was traveling in Germany and Italy, and I made sure to set "Data Services While Roaming" to "Off." However, I still did incur data roaming charges. They are really small-- like 15KB/day, but it's nonetheless annoying that my Blackberry Bold 9700 is using data even though I turned it off. I use AT&T. Does anyone know why?

Going on a cruise next week that has GSM roaming on it. I plan to leave the phone off unless I need to check in with someone in US.I know that the voice rate will be $4.99 per minute, but how do I turn off the data portion of the phone to not rack up crazy roaming data charges. I do have unlimited international email but suspect the cruise ship does not count.

Since upgrading to ios 5.1.1 my iphone 4s will not roam. I am unable to connect to a phone network in Europe (apart from my home network o2 in the UK) but it does work in Africa?
o2 sent me a new sim card but this has not made any difference hence I think the problem may be with ios 5.1.1, any one able to offer any help?

I travelled to Colombia recently and in general, had my phone either turned off, or on airplane mode the entire trip. I only used it for one five minute phone call and to listen to music for about five hours accumulated. I was there for about 8 days.
I was told to put the phone on airplane mode, so as to avoid any roaming charges, as my fellow travel companions (who all also owned iPhones), said "that way nothing comes through. No wi-fi, messages, nothing".

Looks like ios4 has a bad bug. Data roaming can occur even when the option for DR is set to off.
First, my prob. Brand new iPhone 4 set up as new. On first arrival in foreign country, emails start to download, can surf safari, even though no wifi and DR set to off.
Problem fixed by turning DR on and off again. Now DR blocked as required.
On a 3GS upgraded to ios4. Same initial probs as above butnpeob persists!
Phone continues to download data in background! When safari activated, DR-off message appears but data still downloads. Only way to turn off the DR is to change APN settings.
Be warned folks -and, anyone's experienced this?

My iPhone 4s has just started doing the same but I'm not overseas! :( first I thought maybe it was some battery hogging App I downloaded so I deleted the a bunch that coincided with drain issue... Still nothing , I was losing about 1% every min while using it even in standbye mode it dropped around 20% in 25 min plus it was getting quite hot in bottom right of phone! So I disabled data roaming and bam it's fine back to normal? but I need data roaming on when I leave wifi connection so this is very annoying. I reset network settings and phone settings drained battery fully did full overnight charge data roming was on by default and it seemed to be fixed. I wanted to test my emails do I turned data roaming off then back on 5 mins later, but then the phone started to heat up again and drain ! I think I will try reset one more time then leave data roaming on by default?

I have an iPhone 4S with iOS 5.1.1 I ALWAYS have data roaming turned off as I travel a reasonable amount and don't want the charges. All automatic downloads are also turned off. On a recent holiday to France the phone the phone decided randomly to download my emails at 3pm one Friday afternoon (after we'd been there for almost a week) - this totalled around 3MB and cost me around £10.00 This was the only time the phone did any downloads (it was in my pocket not being used at the time) - so it appears as if randomly for around 10 minutes one wet Friday afternoon the phone decided to ignore the data roaming switch and download my emails (and apparently nothing else). I have read some real horror stories online about this kind of thing but nothing where it just pops on and off.As I travel a reasonable amount I can't afford for this to keep happening.

I'm currently in the US and would like to use WiFi on my 9700. When I crossed the border I changed my "Data services" option to OFF and "While roaming" option to OFF also. I tried turning on the WiFi and connected to a stable WiFi connection but when I try and access the internet, I get a "Data services are disabled. Go to Mobile Network to enable" error. Would changing the "Data services" option to ON allow me to use WiFi only? I don't want to end up with a massive bill by using roaming data.
