Service dropped USA OPO OTA-17

@billboy5690 Could you please point me to the thread explaining the process of installing UT on a fresh pixel 3a with android 12 already installed?
Thank you

@tuxy I own a Pixel 3a and an Lg Nexus 4. They are all running Ubutntu Touch (which I love). However, you will only be able to make phone calls by utilizing Linphone and Sip (as someone else mentioned). Until Ubuntu Touch is able to support Volte (Voice over Long Term Evolution), you will not be able to make phone calls by connecting to one of the USA networks. A few may still be working, but by July, 2022 they will all be gone. So let us all pray for Volte implementation in Ubuntu Touch. They are working on it, but it is evidently a really difficult implementation to develop.

@desolom Thank you for that clarification. A monumental task to make UT a reality to say the least and hats off the the crew who made it possible. Not ready to begin using the android I bought to install UT on but is the only phone I have now. I will continue to support UBports as I am not giving up on UT yet.
I hope developers are blessed with the knowledge and money to continue.
Thank you

@billboy5690 Same. Still going after a week or so on the 2g/3g setting -- weird.

Hi @alyosha
Maybe it's one of the steps.
Forbid 3G only devices to join the network.
For 4G devices force VoLTE.
Then later cut out all remaining 3G...It seems logical they didn't remove all 3G relays all at once so if your area is still active then you have an unknown amount of time until end of service.

@desolom Damn -- let's hope they can pull off a hat trick. Rather go back to a land line than kiss AAPL or GOOG's asses.
-
@applee Really appreciate that reply -- thought it was "cockpit error" on my part.

@alyosha
There is always a logical explanation.
Mine is possible... craziness is always an option but unlikely

4G LTE seems it should work on this phone:

@mongoose
The OnePlus One has the hardware for 4G, but UBPorts doesn't have VOLTE support in the OS, so voice calls will not be carried on 4G (LTE). Perhaps it'd still work with the stock firmware, updated as much as possible, of course, but I'd feel too dirty if I tried that.
