USA - Faith Wireless a virtual AT&T provider just kicked my PinePhone off their network.

Here is the message I got from the Faith Wireless technician

I have some bad news. Your device came up registered as a Mobile Broadband Device when the Registered IMEI was updated. We do not service Mobile Broadband Devices. The reason you were able to have service before is AT&T had not previously been policing their networks. With the impending 3G Sunset they've begun doing that and you won't be able to use this device with us anymore. You may put your SIM card into another compatible device if you want to continue with us. Here a list of devices you can use: https://www.att.com/idpassets/images/support/wireless/Devices-Working-on-ATT-Network.pdf

Looks like time to change the Pinephone IEMI to that of the 4G KaiOS flip phone that AT&T sent me.
