I'm not entirely sure if N78 is not working, but even with manual carrier selection, my device only recognizes 4G (while Korean phones show very strong 5G signals in this area) and does not detect 5G at all. After searching various local forums, I found that some overseas carrier-locked devices may have a sort of region lock, which makes me suspect that N78 might be restricted. So, I'm asking if there is a way to force N78 activation or remove the allow list(region restrictions) through firmware modification or debugging.

ATT M7 doesn't support 5G SA so far. That may be the reason you couldn't connect 5G right now. Please wait for the coming maintenance release with 5G SA supported.
