Why and How to Update Carrier Settings on Your Device?
Did you know your carrier can release setting updates, and you can update them on your device? Your carrier settings improve mobile network performance and connectivity so you can have the best user experience possible. Those settings control how your cellular device receives data, sends text messages, makes phone calls, and more.
If you're having issues with calls, can't connect to your cellular network, or have other problems related to your network provider, the first thing you should do is to check if an update for carrier settings is available. If you don't feel comfortable updating your carrier settings without knowing the updated content, contact your carrier to get more details. But if you want your network to work smoothly, we recommend updating them.
