When I am in 5g coverage area, I want to manually set my Galaxy M14 to NR/5G only.

To elaborate more; I am using a jio sim. Currently jio gives free 5g. But there is no option to set m14 to use exclusively only 5g when I am in 5g area. The device or the sim, (idk which), uses my paid 4g data, (even while in 5g area) which I would want to use in places where 5g is not available. If 4g data pack is consumed when there is free 5g available, then there will be no 4g data left to use when 5g is not available.

So how to set m14 to use 5g exclusively?

Please throw light on this.

Thank you.

I tried the app. It didn't work. It was still connecting to lte/4g/3g from my data pack.

I have a few doubts. I would appreciate if you could throw light on these.

1. When on NR only, can the device still connect to 4g/3g where there is no 5g coverage?
2. How do we revert back to normal 5g/4g/3g/2g quickly, to make or take calls? It was a bit of hassle for me. I had to restart the phone.
3. Is it possible to set it to 5g/2g so that we can use 5g only and also make or take calls?

Please throw light on these matters. Thank you.

For 1. No u can't connect to 4g/3g cus u ve selected 5g manually. So u need change it to NR/lte/3g/2g manually.
2. Just where u select only NR, u change it from Der only 5g/lte/3g. Den off n on airplane mode for better network. No need of restart.
3.No u can't. Only 5g or 5g/4g or all. When u only 5g u not get calls or make call.
