Carrier Settings Update
For the past few days my phone has been getting a pop-up titled Carrier Settings Update and the body of the message says new settings are available and asks if I want to update now or not.
Is this how AT&T sends out updates to my phone? It kinda feels like malware/spam to me.

With recent changes to law allowing ISPs to now track everything you do, this update is for this purpose. Big brother deluxe at the ISP level.

I would like to know exactly what this most recent "carrier update" (may-june 2017) from at&t cellular is for ??? I've tried to research it and I can't find any information as to what it initials and includes ..... This happened about a year ago as well and I found the same problem and that being that you can not locate any information or description as to what the update is for ..... other than maybe some vague description of it "fixing bugs" ... but that sounds like a LIE to me. It doesn't explain what these issues are, it's very frustrating and very deceptive on at&t's part. I found in the past with things like this if you can't find an explanation it's usually because it's something shady on at&t's part and does not benefit us (the consumer) at all.

He carrier settings update always works fine on Android. Apple is garbage...that's why they only have 10% of the market....

I have an iPhone 7, with AT&T as my carrier. However, the phone is under my daughters plan as it was a gift to me. Since the carrier update yesterday, I cannot make calls, and I cannot receive calls I can only text. Has anyone else had this problem, if so what is the solution. I have started and restarted my phone twice, and checked all the settings, and it is still not allowing me to make calls, or receive calls

Really, you think that's why? The carrier settings from AT&T?
It's kind of enough to make them one of the richest companies on the planet (I'm talking top 5, not top 100!). I think they were even the richest for a few days at some point, but that might have only been cash and not total value...
