Help Disable data roaming guard

I often work in a building where my phone ends up roaming, which is fine with me, except that I keep getting the stupid data roaming warning. I can't seem to disable it, because the options are check and greyed out in the data roaming guard menu.

how can i enable these options so i can uncheck them?? I'm on Sprint btw if that matters
 
Try this (it's a bug that has been popping up for awhile)

1. Go into settings > Mobile Data > Network mode >switch to CDMA only
2. While still in mobile network go into Roaming >switch it to home only
3. uncheck and check Domestic voice, date, etc.. until everything is unchecked
4. exit out of this and switch to airplane mode
5. restart the phone
6. Go back into mobile data and roaming guards and see if you can uncheck them.
7. undo all previous steps and revert your phone back to normal operation.
 
The next time you start to roam and guard comes on, click on it from the notification panel, there should be an option that says "do not display in the future" or something similar. Once that happens, the grayed out options should be unchecked now that it has been reset. If you do not get this message while you are roaming set the roaming mode to home only and then wait 30 seconds and switch it back to automatic and see if you get the pop-up.
