What devices get blocked after the 3G shutdown? As the 3G network has shut down on the 28th of October, phones that only support 3G will no longer work in Australia. However, the 3G shutdown also affects some 4G and 5G phones. Phone is 4/5G but no VoLTE Many phones manufactured overseas, while they may support 4G or 5G data connections, may still face issues with voice calls in Australia. This is often because these devices rely on 3G networks for voice calls, especially for emergency calls (like dialing 000). The government has mandated that the carriers block these devices for safety reasons. VoLTE but incompatible Although some overseas phones technically support VoLTE, their VoLTE versions might not be compatible with Aussie networks. Different countriews have varying VoLTE protocols and frequency requirements, meaning some of these won't be able to make voice calls over Aussie 4G networks. You can find more information about this on our 3G shutdown info page. What is MMS and is it included? E.Tel offers unlimited standard national calls and SMS, however MMS is different.

Though it has seen recent decline with the rise of WhatsApp, Messenger, and iMessage for sharing multimedia, there are still people who use MMS to send media. We strongly advise our customers to use apps like WhatsApp, Messenger, and iMessage to avoid the $0.25 per MMS charge. Where can I get an E.Tel SIM card?
