Answer 1

A non-root solution which is a kind of hack tech. :P

1. Reboot phone, connect to the non-Internet Wifi;
2. Go to Settings and create a new user;
3. Continue, continue, and continue until you see "Checking connection";
4. As soon as you see "checking connection", switch off your phone;
5. Switch on your phone again, you will be in "Owner" user, keep it;
6. Toggle Wifi, and the exclamation mark should disappear quickly :)
7. Remove that new user or just leave it there;

I don't know why, but it works...
