    Can you expand on why? I’m not very well versed on Android OS or their firmware.

      Because your phone has an entire OS- the baseband layer that runs under android and is completely out of the users or Androids control.

      When you put your phone in airplane mode for example this doesn’t stop your phone from connecting to cell towers. All you are doing is removing your ability to control the connection.
