OK, so when I posted that earlier I had no available wifi to test. So now I'm at home, phone is in plane mode, all data off too, and wifi turned on...and here I am on PPCG. I'm using Juicy R6. So perhaps it is ROM specific, but to be more precise a setting, as you noted, that differs from one ROM to another.
Noted. When I switch this one to Airplane mode, it won't even let me turn wifi on. Just trying to get this to work so when/if I'm in a situation where I get no signal and wifi is available I'll have a fall back. That and airlines are moving toward plane based wifi so having this feature working on long flights when I don't want to pull out a laptop would be awesome.

In terms of settings I was thinking about the modem settings in the connections menu. I know the settings will be different, but I'm thinking that it should be some common thread as it's just making the wifi chip available independent of other data services. As it is, when I go into the modem settings I only have the evdo Sprint modem set up and I'm thinking that's where something may be missing from. Now if I can just get someone who is running Love 2 and on Sprint and able to connect and use service with phone/data turned off to tell me what settings they have that would be ideal. I'm asking a lot I guess. Lol.
