Yup. I noticed the changes in the last release chanfelog and had no idea what this was about. Now I get the whole story. And yeah i also got the options now! Sadly mine is a low-cost prepaid sim provider in my country (5 bucks monthly for 60GB data with calls), and after checking with them they don't have support for these functions yet for any phone. They don't have 5G at all, and neither vowifi, for any device. So I won't try messing with them.
