If your provider is unable to verify VoLTE support for your device, it may be blocked from Australian networks from the 1st of November 2024.

seems like an unideal solution that will stop devices that still have uses (old phone as a media player) from being used.
Not to mention the E-waste and easily preventable deaths caused by not being able to dial emergency services. This is gross negligence at best and mass murder at worst.
emergency services is the only excuse I can think of to justify preventing phones without vo-lte from connecting.
A good summary video.
Oh, forgot to mention:
You can SMS 3 to the number 3498 and it will check your device!
Australia: “Fuck you, tourists. Your overseas phones don’t work here!”
Also, the fact that VoLTE is not truly standardised, and 4G and 5G have no standardised method of calling is just a bad joke.
“Let’s have a phone standard without a standard way of phone calls!”
