I don't think Maxis will shutdown its B7 nationwide. Certain towers may turn off B7 and some even B1 to conserve energy during off peak hour. Prolly Maxis think no point for having over 200Mbps on 4G (low utilization) that's why it proceeds to shut it down on that particular tower/sector

Looks like they might be preventing devices from using B7 as the primary band. Noticed this in the Puchong-USJ area.

With just band 7 enabled, and all others used by Maxis disabled. My phone drops to 2G. But let's say I enable just band 1. My phone would use b1 as the primary band and band 7 for carrier aggregation.

True for Kinrara and PJ area as well. This will allow more China imported phones to have 4G+ signal by default

Shah Alam as well. Locked on B7 (disabled B1/3/8 and B28 to prevent the phone from going on 5G) and it's back to EDGE.

Do China-imported phones don't support B7 or something?

certain China-imported phones support B7 but no CA with other band, stuck with B7. B1-B3 is a common combo in China so CA should works better
