Device Considerations for Network Shutdowns

Voice: If your device is not LTE and Voice over LTE (VoLTE) capable, including VoLTE 911, you will need to upgrade or replace your device to ensure continued voice calling and coverage.

Data Only 4G/LTE Devices: Certain 4G/LTE devices configured as DATA ONLY may no longer attach to the network after the 3G sunset due to a default voice-centric setting. When these devices attach after the 3G sunset, they will attempt to request voice-centric signalling and will receive a response from the network that they are attached as data-centric. The module will see the mismatch and scan for another network that supports 3G voice-centric. This may prompt a “No Service” condition and the device may fail to connect.

Manufacturers are advising customers operating DATA ONLY devices (but contain a data/voice module) to undertake one of the three options below:

Swap out the device for a data only device
Execute the appropriate AT+ command based on your device to disable the VoLTE and IMS services to make the configuration data-centric
Perform a firmware update to resolve the issue. Check with the device vendor if it can be reconfigured to ‘data-centric’ AND all voice and IMS services disabled. This is normally accomplished using a firmware update from the vendor
