How can I fix stand alone 5G grayed out issue?

Dose anyone else have there stand alone 5g Greyed out and how to fix it

[realaud]

It doesn't really matter as long as it's greyed out in the on position since, as I said above, when it's on it will get 5G when 5G is available and revert to 4G when not.  The problem would be if it was disabled in the off position.

Yeah, your right. Because when I played and turned it off it said not to unless recommended by the carrier because I'd get lower quality service (or something like that). So I keep it on like it should be.

Many people think turning it off will save battery power, but the amount it would save is negligible. I think those might be the people who turn their phone off at night.

I could never turn my phone off at night. What if an emergency call needed to get through or something?

[realaud]

Yeah, I can't either. I don't understand it. It's not like you can't put it on a charger if you don't want the battery to run down. I charge mine at night.

[justtryingtohelp]

Yep. 😊

AT&T removed the 5G option years ago for unlocked phones.
