Help figuring Moto G6 compatibily w/3G, 4G, 5G

I just spent the last month trying to understand why my phone shut down and now believe that my previous company (I am joining TMobile as of yesterday)did not inform we as to “why” my phone was deemed incompatible with the new SIM they sent out.Can someone help me with making sure my phone is only 3G, not 4G for sure?  It is only about 2-3 years old, but still running V. 9 Android, but it won’t update to any later version.  It’s a Moto G6 said to have come out in 2018.I am thinking it is the phone itself, and TMobile just told me yesterday my phone will work with the plan I ordered.  I am concerned that I am getting (in the mail) a SIM for just 3G, or, TMobile Sales person is sending me a 4 or 5G that won’t work on my phone either.Can someone help me?  Thanks for any help/suggestions, DenisePS I have no problem going ahead an buying a new phone as I am finding my Moto G6 is outdated and the way technology is moving so fast, it’s either sink or swim ;)

Is there a way to add back the "Local Upgrade" feature for OnePlus devices

It's come to my attention in the process of trying to update my phone from Android 11 to A12 when I was rudely informed that T-Mobile has exclusive controls over my updates. I find that a violation of my rights to own the phone. I am paying it off and more than half way through it already. I'm not sure that paying it off fully would make much of a difference, but it doesn't hurt to ask. I want to be able to willfully update my phone as I please, as the OxygenOS updater gives me explicit permission from ONEPLUS THEMSELVES to help update my phone in a more timely manor, until I receive this notification; "It looks like you're using a carrier locked device, so no updates for you. T-Mobile will do the updating from here on out" Basically the short version, does unlocking the carrier help with this? Any tips, suggestions, and work arounds?Anything will help

Motorola One 5G Ace - new text/voicemail message indicator light

Does the Motorola One 5G Ace have a new text/voicemail message indicator light?? I just got the phone, but can’t seem to find out if it does. I’d hope it does and it just needs to be enabled.

Samsun S10 Plus waiting on Tmobile to release Android 12

Samsung already released the update of Android 12 to all S10 Plus devices. Also all other major carriers have released it as well (AT&T, Verizon, etc)My device is an unlocked Samsung I purchased directly from Samsung. Why have I not received the update even while I try to push it through SETTINGS>SOFTWARE UPDATE >DOWNLOAD & INSTALLA friend who works for t-mobile told me that t-mobile like to delay the updates to push clients to trade up their devices. If that is true I will be one passed long time customer leaving the network

strange home screen icon?

I recently received a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy A32 5G phone. It’s running Android v11.There’s an icon at the top left of the home screen, next to the clock, which I don’t recognize. Searches of the manual and the Web haven’t helped. Does anyone know what it indicates?

Audio Issues on Nord N10 5g Phone

My Nord N10 5g phone is only a few months old but suddenly began to only allow me to hear other parties during calling if I have the speakerphone on. The other party can hear me, but I can’t hear them (or the phone ringing out for that matter) unless I turn on the speakerphone. Also, the T-mobile jingle doesn’t play anymore on power up/power down. I’m just wondering if others have run into this problem and what actions might resolve the issue (up to and including a hardware reset). Thanks in advance for any ideas.

My unlocked galaxy s20 stopped working with other carriers

I have a Samsung Galaxy s20 from T-mobile that I bought a year ago on Amazon as an unlocked phone. I have been using this phone with an ATT sim card without any problems for a year. Today I noticed that I can’t make or receive calls with it. The phone works, it’s just that I can’t call anyone nor I can be called. I tested my ATT sim card in another phone and that phone worked fine (makes/receives calls). I tested the unlocked S20 with a T-mobile sim card and phone makes/receives calls. Thus, the phone behaves as locked, though it worked fine for a year. Any suggestions?

Any other vets here order a galaxy s22 and then not get it and get told your order was delayed?

Anyone else get promised a galaxy s22 before the launch, then get denied picking up your new phone on launch day, and t-mobile bozos tell you they ordered it for you and promise it being delivered on Monday the 28th, but now there's a huge delay and your phone you were promised is not in stock anymore? And you paid money basically for no services being rendered?

I seem to have this recurring issueI have a brand new Samsung S10+, bought from t-mobileI am part of a group chat with my coworkers (who all have iPhones), whenever I am on my home wi-fi or work wi-fi they seem to be receiving my texts twice. when they text me it comes with a serious delay, and I don't receive images they send. This also happens when I am not on wifi and am on 4g. I also receive texts twice when it is one-on-one texting with a friend. This needs to stop. Someone please help!
