Forced roaming on newer Sprint phones...
...is there a way to bypass the lack of forced roaming on newer Sprint phones? If not, whichones in their current line-up still offer this feature? Any?

☹️ Oh well, can't have your cake and eat it too I guess. Besides, that'd be really gross if you could!
...
You can, actually, you just have to be good at vomiting voluntarily, and have to be okay with eating a regurgitating your own cake.
But I feel that this depreciates the value of having or eating cake. So it may be best to stick with one, and not try for both.

I've also noticed Sprint deducts minutes from your anytime bucket while roaming no matter when or whom you call. I guess when you offer a humongous roaming area for no additional charge, there has to be limitations and controls in place.
...
As with any carrier, mobile-to-mobile services do not function while roaming. Since Any Mobile Anytime is an extension of M2M, it follows the same restrictions.
...
Not just mobile to mobile, but Sprint also deducts if your on N&W's while roaming.
...
Yup, same idea, pretty much. Verizon counts your NW minutes when roaming off of Sprint as well.

Actually, that is not correct. Calls made between 7pm and 7am are unlimited, even if you are roaming . Only M2M calling and Any Mobile calling count against your anytime mins if you are not on Sprint network, and only between 7am and 7pm...peak time.
...
...but I've tested it, and the minutes do come out no matter when the calls are placed. :-(
...
I've heard it both ways; some claim your anytime minutes aren't used, others say they are. I've tested it and the minutes do come out. Is there a code for this in the system that those who say otherwise can reference?
...
Hrm, I just found documents stating that while roaming, NW minutes should still be free. I'm gonna look into this further.

Well, if you have tested this out, then all you would have to do is check that call on the detailed calls of your next invoice.. next to the call is a code that describes how the call was rated. If this "tested" call was INITIATED after 7pm, or before 7am during the week, or on the weekend, it should say "NW/PU" as the rate type, which means it was counted as a night and weekend call. Only calls listed as "PU" (plan usage), are calls counted as anytime minutes. Also, m2m minut...
