<h2><a href="#carrier-functionality">Carrier functionality</a></h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>GrapheneOS aims to work with all carriers that are officially supported by Google
|
||||
on the stock operating system on Pixel devices. Wi-Fi Calling, VoLTE, Visual Voicemail,
|
||||
MMS, SMS, Calling and 5G (SA and NSA) all are supported, however some functionality may
|
||||
not be usable due to Google not supporting carriers on the stock OS officially or
|
||||
due to GrapheneOS not shipping proprietary apps required in order for this
|
||||
functionality to work on some carriers. GrapheneOS extracts CarrierConfigs, APNs,
|
||||
modem configurations, Visual Voicemail configurations and MMS configurations from the
|
||||
stock operating system to ensure users get easy carrier support that "just works".</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Please note that in some regions, LTE is referred to as 4G.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Generally Visual Voicemail, SMS, MMS, Calls and VoLTE will work fine on GrapheneOS
|
||||
with officially supported carriers by Google. Wi-Fi calling may vary due to a reliance
|
||||
on proprietary Google apps which GrapheneOS does not ship.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If you are having problems sending or receiving SMS/MMS messages, we suggest that
|
||||
you perform the following steps:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Deregister your phone number from <a href="https://selfsolve.apple.com/deregister-imessage">Apple iMessage</a></li>
|
||||
<li>Deregister your phone number from <a href="https://messages.google.com/disable-chat">Google Chat Features</a></li>
|
||||
<li>Deregister your phone number from your carrier's RCS service</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If you continue to have problems despite following the instructions above or you
|
||||
have another carrier related issue, we suggest that you perform the following steps:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Some carriers require you to explicitly opt in to use services such as Wi-Fi calling.
|
||||
Consult your carrier's documentation on the process for this or contact them.</li>
|
||||
<li>Reset Mobile Network settings in Settings ➔ System ➔ Reset options ➔ Reset Wi-Fi,
|
||||
mobile & Bluetooth and then reboot the device.</li>
|
||||
<li>USA users only: You may need to request your carrier to enable CDMA-less mode if
|
||||
you have issues.</li>
|
||||
<li>Follow your carrier's instructions for setting up APNs, this can be found in
|
||||
Settings ➔ Network & Internet ➔ SIMs ➔ Access Point Names</li>
|
||||
<li>As a last resort you may need to ask your carrier for a replacement SIM card.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>GrapheneOS includes bypasses for carrier restrictions on APN editing, tethering via
|
||||
USB, Ethernet, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi and the ability to disable 2G, actions which would not
|
||||
have been possible on the stock operating system.</p>
