In this guide, we will show you the steps to force enable and use China Telecom on your Pixel 7 Pro. Depending on the region where you live and the place from where you’ve imported the latest Pixel flagships, you may or may not be able to get hold of all the device functionalities.

As a result of which, they are unable to place any calls, send or receive messages, or use mobile data. If you are also facing a similar issue, then this guide will help you out. Follow along for the fix.
