So tech question Tuesday.... You know this 3g turn off thing? My MIL has a Moto G8 plus (which the specs say supports LTE), but Optus keep sending her emails through her account saying that it will not be supported going forward ... They list her phone specifically as one that will not be supported...so VoLTE is a different spec than LTE?
@[email protected] Did you try the *#*#4636#*#* menu and verify VoLTE can't be enabled? Is it the international version?
I haven't had a chance, but the MIL is coming to visit soon so I'll give it a try. Can't remember if I bought her the international version or not...
@[email protected] Seems even the G7 got VoLTE via LineageOS. So maybe that's an option, too?

Of course, there are loads of reasonably priced VoLTE-capable phones put there these days....
