Enabling 5G in an unsupported region on GrapheneOS?

wildquaker

I just got my Pixel 7A and managed to flash GrapeheneOS on it without any problems.

As I understand, Pixel phones don't support 5G internet to all countries. Will I brick my GrapheneOS installation if I unlock the 5G connection (was planning to use this)?

Just FYI: I, and others, have manually disabled 5G to improve battery life and/or data stability.

You can try using this at your own discretion, and even If it does mess things up you can fix it yourself via ADB/Factory reset (You'll have to figure it out how if you'll use ADB to fix it)

That's what I do, and it works well for me.
