Yep, some people do this as a method of cold storage.

unless the phone that was used to create this wallet has never been connected to ANY NETWORK and will never be connected to any network in the future, you can not consider this method a safe "cold storage" method. it would be like buying meat then leaving it outside under the sun for a couple of days and then refrigerate it thinking everything is fine now that you've frozen the meat!
