>Is there any way to change dns servers on lte/3G?

probably doesn't matter because regular dns is performed in the clear. There's nothing preventing them from logging/intercepting your requests even if you changed them.

>Odd that iPhones let you change it for wifi, but not cellular.

>What about android?

AFAIK on both changing DNS can be done by using an app that acts like a VPN, and intercepts the DNS requests.

Though legally speaking, there might be a difference between logging dns packets going to ??? and dns packets hitting the provider’s dns server.

The latter could be construed as necessary logging while the former is spying for the sake of spying.

The legal aspect might change what AT&T 'has' to log, although they likely voluntarily include other passively-obtained port 53 traffic in their cooperation.

at the very least, t-mobile has static-routed public resolvers like google's to their own in the past.

DNSCloak does that, but it sometimes crashes, and unfortunately there are no recent updates.
