Abstract
The system receives, from a telecommunications network subscribed to by the wireless device, a list of roaming networks. The system connects to a roaming network from the list of roaming networks. The system enters a roaming mode from a standard mode. The roaming mode reduces the amount of data used by the wireless device by preventing the wireless device from performing background tasks. Background tasks include processes performed by the wireless device to keep an application on the wireless device up to date. The standard mode causes the wireless device to operate at a higher data level and a less optimized battery level compared to the roaming mode. The system connects to the telecommunications network. The wireless device disconnects from the roaming network before connecting to the telecommunications network subscribed to by the wireless device. The system enters the standard mode.
