Update: Fix Galaxy Watch 6 LTE not working with Pixel 7/Pro
A user has once again come to light this time involving Pixel 7/Pro users as they are also unable to activate LTE on their Galaxy Watch 6. This might be because the Galaxy Watch 6 is easily able to connect with non-Pixel devices and even Pixel devices running on July or older security patches.
You could try out the aforementioned Reset APN tweak, update your device to the September patch [when it is released], or downgrade it to the July security patch [which would require an unlocked bootloader]. The developers have yet to acknowledge this issue, let alone give out any ETA for a fix. As and when any of these things happen, we will update this guide accordingly.
