The tor relay software requires a computer (not cellphone) OS like Linux or 
macOS, the software will not run on a cellphone. It’s also recommended you have 
an at least decently fast internet connection. 

In short, running your relay off a computer and ISP internet connection is far 
more likely to work. Do you mean it is the cellphone company that is supplying 
your internet connection?

If your ISP  or cellphone company is charging based on how much data you are 
using in a certain time, running a relay will be very expensive for you I am 
sorry to say. I would absolutely recommend you instead try to run your relay in 
an area where the ISP charges based on how much speed you purchase (which is 
pretty standard in the US).

Sounds likely to be $$$ for shit performance / TOS, but
if it's the only / guerilla / rural connection you've got... ok.
Typically that backhauls to points coastal anyway, where
other fine hosting services are offered, though perhaps not
available from the same telco / satcom carrier / network,
which might then be anti-diverse,
or if available, could be pricier than the competition.

Those are changeable to whatever is not blocked.
If nothing is open, well...

> Is it impossible to work around the port blocking?

... a block is a block. Either get it lifted, or
vpn / shell / proxy / tunnel around it, or tell
them you took your money elsewhere.
