1. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
non-transitory memory storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
determining a network of a first network type associated with a user equipment (UE);
utilizing the network of the first network type to route one or more first communications for the UE;
identifying a carrier configuration identifier associated with a second network type, the carrier configuration identifier being utilized to identify a carrier selected network or a carrier selected service;
identifying a first UE cellular service identifier associated with a third network type, the first UE cellular service identifier being utilized to identify a UE selected network or a UE selected service;
determining, as a replacement of the network of the first network type, another network of at least one of the second network type or the third network type;
utilizing the another network to route one or more second communications for the UE;
causing presentation by a display of the UE of i) a first indicator representing a first value of the first UE cellular service identifier associated with a fifth generation (5G) network, ii) a second indicator representing a second value of a second UE cellular service identifier associated with a second generation (2G) network, and iii) a third indicator representing a third value of a third UE cellular service identifier associated with voice over new radio (VoNR);
receiving, from the UE, a first user selection of at least one of the first indicator, the second indicator, or the third indicator, the first user selection being received by the UE via a first user input to a first user interface (UI) of the UE;
updating at least one of the first UE cellular service identifier, the second UE cellular service identifier, or the third UE cellular service identifier, based on the first user selection; and
causing presentation of at least one of the first indicator, the second indicator, or the third indicator to be updated, based on the updating of at least one of the first UE cellular service identifier, the second UE cellular service identifier, or the third UE cellular service identifier.
