About a month ago I switched from Google Fi to Mint Mobile. I figured since they were both T-Mobile MVNOs the service would the same, and it was a way for me to move away from the Google Fi app requirement, and this the play services requirement on my graphene pixel 8 pro. Everything initially seemed to be working great, then I realized I only ever have LTE. I've tried all the APN settings, auto discovered, manually configured in accordance with the mint documentation, and the T-Mobile APN. They all give me good service, but only ever LTE. Previously on both T-Mobile and Fi, on the same cell towers, I had 5g, so I know it's not a service issue. Mint support is the worst thing I've ever encountered in my life and they're useless as far as troubleshooting. Notably, the other phone on the plan is a stock pixel 7 pro and has the same issue, so I think it's a provisioning issue not a graphene issue, but I figured I'd ask the crowd here because of the general level of aptitude.
