stealthpaw replied to Kparky on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
It won't be. My phone supports band 28 and is still being blocked for no apparent reason.

I expect all grey market phones will be entirely banned from this point on. Telco's and the government want their cut.

Sadly, even if you have Band 28 and enable VoLTE, grey market phones will be banned. I have the same model phone and argued black and blue…

Who's your telco provider? @sir_bazz I have a Redmi Note 9 Pro and my provider (amaysim) are still saying I am about to be blocked.
stealthpaw replied to Jac33au on Proactive Action - Xiaomi (& Other Chinese Brands / Import) Phone Owners Affected by 3G Shutdown (Now Due to Be Network Blocked)
Yeah same. My phone 100% supports the new standard, and even after talking to the telco they still say it will be blocked because **they**…

Fair enough, thanks for the info.

Love me a LAN but Q3A and AOE is the only games that interest me in that lineup... Where's the BF1942/2/2142, COD2/4

Easily fixed if you have an electric drill sitting around.
Hence why I've disengaged from the thread, as it's just a dog-pile. Thanks for being one of the few giving an actual answer.
Thanks for that @jakka you have changed my opinion on the e-waste issue mostly. (I know, views being changed on the internet? Shocking.)
See above; not concerned about myself, but sure, attack me personally if that makes you feel good.
