You can trick iOS into running different bundles for your carrier up until the most recent beta (just fixed)

A very common thing to do in Russia for instance where WiFi calling isn’t available: https://github.com/ios-bundles/CarrierSIM

Showing off carrier-explode, one of my side projects that continuously archives carrier settings for all major phone brands.

carrier-explode also contains decoders and explanations for all the common baseband configurations, etc.

There’s still quite a bit of work to be done in checking my assumptions, but the tool has already been proven useful for a few enthusiast groups.

Ubuntu has been pulling this for years afaik. I distinctly recall getting some ad for a Canonical Kubernetes implementation a while back too.
