What are these network tests?

What are they testing on the phones? People seem to import phones all the time and have no issues with them. So what does it mean when an imported phone works but yet it fails a network test here?

Maybe the Vodafone Live crap that Vodacom infects the phones with causes problems.

ICASA like to make a few bucks pretending that they approve them!

Truth is the FCC in the USA and Ofcom/BABT in the UK have already done this work for them. Copy and paste and light another cigar!!
