Thanks for the update. FYI, it took Vodafone about 2 months to block my 10 ii after I received the first warning SMS/email from them.
FWIW my 10 IV is still alive and kicking on Amaysim, still no indication of that changing anytime soon, touch wood.

Same phone is also working with a Vodafone sim
I recevied a 10 iii today purchased on ebay.co.uk and was able to connect to Vodafone. Thanks @lakeboy @Logophoricity.
Yeah, I had a word to Vodafone on your behalf!
I have an Xperia 10 V (XQ-DC72, TAC 35154067), that I am using with SFOS.
When 3g shutdown, I left Exetel (Telstra MVNO) as the phone got blocked and went to Amaysim (Optus MVNO) and all has been good.
I just now realised that Optus has finally released a blocked device checker similar to Telstras. Curiously, I checked my TAC in optus checker and all was good. So I rechecked my TAC in telstras checker and it now says all good. Previously Telstras checker had said blocked.
I wouldnât mind moving back to Exetel/Telstra, but before I muck around, has anyone else had success moving back/being unblocked by Telstra?
Thanks,
So it seems is is true that Telstra has unblocked some TACâs that matter to us SFOS userâs. From James Parkers latest update:
Itâs also worth mentioning that Telstra has now unblocked a number of newer 5G Xperia Devices.
This includes the IV, V and VI series of the Xperia 1s, 5s and 10s.Older III and below series are still largely blocked, except the US and Japan Xperia 5 IIIâs (XQ-BQ42 & XQ-BQ62).
The latest Sony Android 15 update for those newer devices has enabled VoLTE support for Telstra with an updated âROW Commercialâ Modem config.
It seems these devices were unblocked in the last few weeks, some time after the 5th of January.
Those devices could still call 000 on Telstra anyway with previous firmware versions, yet Telstra still decided to block them.
Those newer devices also still show up as being blocked by Optus as of the 20th of January.
Just tested the Sony 10 V with SFOS 5.0.0.55 and the call went through on Amaysim. (Optus).
My 10 IV has continued to work on Amaysim since I installed SFOS prior to the 3G shutdown.
