Went to check and all sorted. Turned it off, turned it on and it loaded up and worked.

@Eva888 as expected nothing has changed around 3G today

I would tell you the make but he doesn’t know. When I go there will check everything. 

 

Make sure its still on the 2D network,...

A common source of VOLTE issues is lower cost android devices being moved onto networks without the phone/network having compatible profiles installed...

Text from 2degrees, shutdown delayed to the 2nd.

@murkywalrus Thanks for the update and are you still running with a 3G handset?

That phone is 3G only, the SIM will go into a newer phone once 3G is shut down.

@boosacnoodle I can make my Samsung S25+ display 3G so was just confirming

From spark today:

https://www.spark.co.nz/online/about/our-company/news/3G-voice-usage-down-70-percent-with-9-weeks-to-go-until-Sparks-3G-network-shuts-down

Surprised that 0.25% of Sparks total network data traffic was able to still be sent over 3G. Got to admire the perseverance!

Another provider pauses shutting down 3G.

One NZ is pausing only in specific regions affected. Other regions going ahead as planned.

I meant to add that part, sorry (was posting in a hurry).

The One NZ page is showing the 3G shutdown for RCG sites as "Started" now.

My Spark phone dropped to 3G while I was in the Whakatane CBD a couple of nights ago (specifically inside Cobb & Co if anyone's that interested). I know RF's a black art but you'd think that L700 would penetrate buildings better than U850.
