I have an Asus Zenfone 10 on Android 15.
In this release of android a new feature named mobile security settings became available which are supposed to signal and protect against surveillance on the mobile network side, like at a protest.
When I try to enable these settings on my device they are off again when I reenter these settings.
Do these settings have some kind of prerequisite? Are they working on your device?
It requires some hardware support, which Zenfone probably doesn’t have. In this case, Asus shouldn’t have shown this setting at all if they don’t support it. Unfortunately there’s no way to enable it for you.
