Even the behavior with the international prefix on numbers.&lt;p&gt;Also, the simultaneous data + voice story is kinda more complicated. You couldn&amp;#x27;t do simultaneous voice+data on 2G phones. You could do it on UMTS&amp;#x2F;HSDPA for sure (it was one of the marketing points...). Then when LTE came, for a time phones could not do phone calls over LTE (VoLTE) (something which I was told was just a &amp;quot;missing software thing&amp;quot;) so they had to drop down to some 3G standard during any phone call. If your 3G standard didn&amp;#x27;t have support for simultaneous voice+data, like it used to be on CDMA networks, then you just didn&amp;#x27;t have data (see CDMA iPhone 5). But it was just fine on GSM ones.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>VoWiFi</title><url>https://computer.rip/2022-03-24-VoWiFi.html</url></story>
