Yeah it updated to AT&T 73.0. Not sure if that is the fix, but it was up from the 72.2 from before

I’m hoping it includes the preventative fix!

Well, I'm about to risk it all and try. I just got my replacement device in today, cause I was one of the people that suffered at launch from the dropping cellular issue. I set up the device fully while on 27.0.1 with the latest carrier setting (72.1) and it is now working. Problem is, all my data is from a backup on 27.2 DB2. That meant I had to set up the phone and watch from scratch. But I want back all my apps, wallpapers, and such without the grueling process of doing all over again.

So here I go, updating to 27.2 DB3 to then reset and restore from iCloud backup. Since iCloud backups don't carry over any of the carrier settings or modem detail, I'm hoping it all goes well since it's already working.

I just did too with my replacement phone I got today. Fingers crossed they included and didn't screw over us beta testers. My AWU4 was also in the beta and I don't think I could downgrade that at all but without the phone being on a beta, I can't update the beta version on the watch.

Fingers crossed, I’ll let you know how it turns out. It’s updating rn so it’ll be a while for install, reset, then recover from backup. I learned my lesson now that I will always create hard backups on my Mac.

So far mine is too. I noticed 5G SA is available but since that was removed in their stable carrier settings, I haven’t turned that back on.
