As in, I closed the popup and it sprang back up immediately. So I had to let it turn the wifi back on, go to the homescreen, and turn off the wifi from THERE. At that point, it told me it had to cancel the full sync it was trying to perform.

All I did to get into that mess was try to read one article that had been previously saved to my Glo.
Well, that would certainly be -- frustrating.

I’ve never any such experience, though I generally leave my wifi disabled to save battery life and only enable it to purposely sync. Is there any chance you have automatic sync enabled in Settings->Syncing and updates, and it just happened to be trying to auto-sync at the same time you were reading a pocket article?
