Re: Why are Blackview GLOBAL 5G phones blacklisted?!?!???
Tex wrote: Blackview has repeatedly stated that all of their 5G phones are built for GLOBAL use, to include the odd American 5G choice of system... that the problem is not the Blackview phones but the American mobile carriers who choose to lock out the Blackview phones because the carriers don't sell Blackview phones. They don't sell Blackview phones because Blackview phones are built to last forever and not break the bank like Apple, Samsung, LG, etc. Seems to me that T-Mobile needs to be honest instead of telling people that the phones are the issue when they are guaranteed to be compatible by Blackview. I tend to believe Blackview because their phones have been phenomenal compared to any other brand that I've used. ALSO, I've had Developers from all of the American carriers verify that our Blackview phones can work but have been blocked by the carriers. But if anyone has any other information, I'd love to hear it! I know it's been a year and you probably don't care. But in case if you're still pondering this question or if some one else comes across this post I figured I'd give you a good solid response, other than someone trying to tell you that these phones won't work for T-Mobile which is simply not true. Any ways I wanted to let you know if you haven't figured it out by now that yes you can use a non-us phone on T-Mobile's network. The best thing about T-Mobile if they don't white list stuff. My father uses a black view phone and has for over 4 years now on T-Mobile's network. In addition when I still had a T-Mobile cell phone line I used phones from Blackview, AGM, ulefone, ruggear, and etc and they all worked. This is the important part that you're talking about. Yes these all these companies for the most part claim that their phones work globally. For the most part all these companies phones do work globally. But they always don't work with every provider in each country. For example most of these companies phones only work with T-Mobile in the US. However with that said they don't always support all T-Mobile's frequencies in the US. For example with 5G. Blackview in particular as launched four to five 5G phones. They only work with band in 41 in the US on T-Mobile. So if you happen to be in the area that's not saturated with towers that provide band n41 then you're probably not going to get much service. As far as 4G goes most these brands have most of T-Mobile's 4G frequencies covered. I recommendation to you is if you're looking for a non-standard or a non-major brand phone. Is to check your providers website for their service frequencies. One of the few things i give T-Mobile is there very upfront with telling the users their service frequencies. They encourage people If they already have a phone to bring it to them. They want to give you service. I don't think they care if your phone was literally a brick from a side of a house they would probably try to find a way for it to work on their towers lol.. What that said once you find out what frequencies they offer for 4G and 5G go to the manufacturer's website of the phone you're looking for in this case Blackview. Find that particular blackview phone on the Blackview site and look at the specs. See if they match up. Now with that said I would try to insure that the phone is capable of running on more than one of that provider's frequencies. In the case of 5G and n41 and n71 are two frequencies you will want in most cases to insure you have a solid 5G connection with T-Mobile. As far as 4G goes I'd do the same in making sure that the phone operates on multiple T-Mobile frequencies. As another side note I would also Google cell tower sites and find a good site that shows you the local towers in your area and what frequencies they run on. This will also help you conclude that if T-Mobile has service in your area what frequencies they offer the service on. Using 5G as an example again I find that most areas are covered with n41 and 71.. however that does not mean always T-Mobile also operates three other wideband frequencies, that a lot of devices even stateside do not offer so keep that in mind as well. Good luck to you!58Views0likes0CommentsRe: Am I the only person concerned about the T-Mobile Price Increase??

Listen, these carriers will continue to raise their rates despite all the promotional intros. Its GREEDflation. Happens every time. Just take your business elsewhere to a discount carrier that uses one of the three main carrier towers. Look up all promotions for these and save a ton of money. Tmobile thinks $10 is no big deal per customer. We are fed up with all the egregious GREEDflation from every direction under the Biden administration. Yeah I did take my business elsewhere as far as my cellular line goes. I get my home internet still with them, hopefully they won't start messing with it or that'll be the next thing to go and then I'll no longer be a customer at all of theirs.. I switched over to US Mobile, The best thing about it is is they offer not only T-Mobile service but also Verizon and AT&T. Even better is my phone can work on all three networks. All i have to do is just choose which Sim to pop in from US Mobile. So far it's been great. Which allows me to not have to use T-Mobile tower so T-Mobile's making nothing off me in the end with my switch and I'm still getting the service I need at half the cost. I'm paying 44.00 a month and I am getting 100Gb of data, 50GB hotspot, and unlimited calling and text. Sure I'm going with out all the extra nonsense stuff that T-Mobile offered me as a bonus for my phone line. But to be honest all that extra nonsense stuff I either can't use or already used the free year up like for example Paramount Plus or AAA. And to be honest I don't want to hear anything about data prioritization either. I've been with US Mobile now for a month and a half and I live outside a large city that's congested a lot and I see no difference in my data priority between the two providers. Oh and I don't care about politics. So sorry I can't support your claim on that one. I'm a equal opportunity hater when it comes to any major party or politician that we are forced to vote for lol 😆414Views1like0CommentsRe: Am I the only person concerned about the T-Mobile Price Increase??

But if anyone has any other information, I'd love to hear it! Blackview phones do work with T-Mobile. It's all about finding out what frequencies the phones run on. Not all the blackview phones run on the same cellular frequencies. Is best to go to T-Mobile's bring your own device page they may call it something else now and find the frequencies on it and compare it to The phone you want from Blackview. I recommend going to Black fuse manufacturer's website to make sure you get quoted the correct frequencies. But I do know for certain they do work on the T-Mobile network as my father has one that works just fine. The best thing to do is when purchasing a non-US phone from a non-standardized phone company is go to the manufacturer's website see what frequencies the phone we're ins on and then see what frequencies the service provider offers.. T-Mobile is very upfront about their service frequencies. Now what that said stay away from AT&T, because not unless you're on their whitelist you got to jump through some hoops to get a non whitelisted phone working with them. Not that it's impossible, it just a pain in the butt to trick AT&T systems into allowing you to use a non-white listed phone.70Views0likes0CommentsRe: Why are Blackview GLOBAL 5G phones blacklisted?!?!???
gramps28 wrote: Another thing is if Blackview phones don't meet Tmobile's VoLte standards they won't work on the Tmobile network. I know this thread topic is like a year old, I came across it while I was looking at a new Black view phone for my father. When I seen the post I wanted to set the record straight, I'm not for sure what VOLTE standards you're referring to with T-Mobile. But what I do know is Blackview phones work with T-Mobile just fine. My father has one that works on 4G perfectly fine with it at the moment. We are looking at trying to upgrade him to a 5g one, problem is when it comes to 5G in the US Blackviews 5g phones only work with T-Mobile band N41. For whatever reason black has yet to release a phone for n71 or any other T-Mobile band. Depending where you live at it could provide you with terrible results. I tried this with AGM another company a couple years ago and I had to mess with the 5G. However with that said most Blackview phones work great with 4G T-Mobile USA. And to add to this post for info sake, I've used various non-us phones AGM, Blackview, ulefone, ruggear, and others and they work just fine on T-Mobile's networks. 107Views0likes0CommentsRe: Am I the only person concerned about the T-Mobile Price Increase??
Please folks do not give up out there let T-mobile know you do not approve there tactics. When you say something is going to be something you stick with not change it no matter how many years!!

People wanted a celluar brand they could identify with, Sprint was on there way out even though they was always leading with the latest tech.

The FTC enforces these truth-in-advertising laws, and it applies the same standards no matter where an ad appears – in newspapers and magazines, online, in the mail, or on billboards or buses. The FTC looks especially closely at advertising claims that can affect consumers’ health or their pocketbooks – claims about food, over-the-counter drugs, dietary supplements, alcohol, and tobacco and on conduct related to high-tech products and the Internet. *Here is what the FCC sees about false advertising: https://www.fcc.gov/general/consumer-deception-and-fraud-0 Have you been “crammed” by your telephone carrier billing you for a product or service without your permission? Have you been “slammed” by a company changing your long distance carrier without your permission? Have you been deceived into buying a telephone service based on incomplete information or misleading advertising? Unfortunately, there are companies and individuals who engage in all of these kinds of deceptive and fraudulent practices, and the FCC receives a steady stream of complaints as a result. The main vehicle the FCC has to address deception and fraud in the telecommunications marketplace is Section 201(b) of the Communications Act. This provision states that “ll charges, practices, classifications, and regulations” by telephone companies “shall be just and reasonable,” and that “any such charge, practice, classification, or regulation that is unjust and unreasonable” is unlawful. (Section 258 of the Communications Act and Sections 64.1110-64.1190 of the Commission’s rules also prohibit slamming.) The Commission can assess a forfeiture penalty against companies and individuals who violate Section 201(b) or any other rule the agency enforces, and the penalties can be as high as $150,000 for each violation by a telephone carrier, and up to $1,500,000 for a continuing violation. If you’ve experienced deception or fraud in connection with telecommunications services, the FCC wants to hear from you. File a complaint to tell us what happened. *Here is what my states AG office has to say about False advertising: https://www.ag.ky.gov/about/Office-Divisions/OCP/Pages/default.aspx The Attorney General's Office of Consumer Protection safeguards Kentuckians from unfair business practices by enforcing the Kentucky Consumer Protection Act (KCPA). The KCPA protects Kentucky's citizens from "unfair, false, misleading, or deceptive acts or practices in trade or commerce." The Office of Consumer Protection enforces the Act by bringing lawsuits in the public interest to obtain civil penalties and consumer redress, including restitution and injunctive relief aimed at changing bad business practices. The division acts in a wide variety of cases, including those involving unscrupulous auto dealers, pharmaceutical companies that understate risks or overstate benefits of their drugs, and for-profit colleges that misrepresent the value of their degrees. The Office of Consumer Protection has also taken action against telemarketers, home remodelers, mortgage lenders, and other types of companies when they do not compete fairly or engage in unfair practices. This enforcement protects not only citizens, but also ethical sellers of goods and services. The Office of Consumer Protection is made up of three subdivisions – Litigation and Investigation, Registration and Compliance, and the Louisville Consumer Resource and Service Branch. The Litigation and Investigation group is responsible for investigating and litigating violations of the KCPA. The Registration and Compliance group provides administrative support required to ensure compliance with state statutes that require certain businesses, such as funeral homes, cemeteries, charitable solicitors, and health spas, to register and/or post bonds with the Attorney General's Office. The Louisville Consumer Resource and Service Branch mediates and investigates consumer complaints primarily related to businesses in the Louisville Metro area. The Office of Consumer Protection is committed to protecting Kentuckians from bad actors in the marketplace. The Office has the power to civil investigative demands and civil subpoenas in order to investigate conduct alleged to violate Kentucky's consumer protection laws. In addition, the Office of Consumer Protection works closely with the Office of Senior Protection and Mediation in order to identify and prosecute businesses that engage in deceptive business practices.
