maybe you use one sim only for data-transfer and the other one for sms and calling...

Or you have a different sim for each girlfriend...

e"Xperi"Ence talking!!!

Not so great.
I just got the BLACK 2 and got it working. I dont think its so great a product to flaunt abt. It just saves ur time and energy by not having u to remove the SIM CARD and RESTART the phone again and again.. but then again sometimes it doesnt pickup the network and then u still need to soft-reset.

better not...
Hi,
i tryed one of these dual sim adapters.
First few days worked great, there was a new software menu, and you could easily switch between cards.
But after a while it stuck very often, and in the end my sim card reader died...

any other makers around?

How does it work? Can you use Internet apps with one sim and write sms with the other at the same time? Or do you have to change everytime, like go to "sim-manager" and select sim 1?

[Q] Dual sim issues

I have one sim that I wish to use for phones / text messages, and one that I wish to use for mobile data.
If I put either sim in on its own, it works fine.
If I put both in together, and set them so they are both on, the one that I wish to use for phone calls and texts does not register on its network (which is Three in the UK)
I am not sure what to do. Can the phone company have set it so it doesn't work in a dual sim setting?
Or have I just failed to understand what dual sim is?
Any help much appreciated!

Try interchanging the SIM, I mean just enter the right one on the left and the left one on the right. What you are saying shouldn't happen.
If possible try another 2 SIM to see if the problem is with the SIM or the phone.

OK thanks. I have tried it with another 2 sims and it works fine. So that means it's a faulty sim?
Is it possible the network won't allow dual sim, or should I just request a replacement?
Thanks

Before requesting a replacement just ask the network operator of that particular SIM that if they disallow Dual-SIM or not. If they don't allow using their SIM on a dula-sim mobile asking for a replacement would be pointless.

I am using 3 (UK) and Vodafone, no issues, so likely the sim

What do you mean by 'for aesthetics'? The second sim card dissappears in the notification bar if you haven't got one inserted

But if you don't use the second sim all notifications related to the second sim dissappear. So what is it about the aesthetics of the second sim that you like? I can see the pictures, I just don't understand why you want the second sim in the phone if you don't use it.

If you take out the simcard you shouldn't get a 'no sim card no service' error. I only use one sim card and have never had any problems. It is very strange. What ROM are you using?

I don't know of any mod that will fix it, but I would suggest you asking on the Q&A thread for whichever ROM you are using as it is something that can be implemented in the ROM itself. I'm not having any issues with it in Titan Prime.

Dual SIM

Hi, I am shortly going to have an mi5. One of the reasons I bought the phone was to have one phone and 2 SIMs thus doing away with the need to have two phones (personal and private) with me. But I am totally new to the whole dual sim thing. Can anyone explain how it works on the mi5?

All in all,
you get to choose if you want to use data from SIM 1 or SIM 2.
When u get att call it says Incomming call on <Call provider 1> or <Call provider 2>.
The same when you wanna call or text someone, either you tap SIM 1 or SIM 2. All of this could be configured in the settings menu.

Cool, thanks.

Dual Sim - standby or full active?

Thats incorrect, can be 2G/3G/4G, the other sim is 2G/3G.
To ther op's, for all I know, the P7 and 8 is full active, you can use sim one to call sim two and you phone will start to ring, thats the same for sim one on call, whiles data can be used to surf the internet on sim two. This feature has been removed for all released afterwards.

Thanks Bro, if the 2g/3g sim received a call .. the internet stopped working?
Example: Is the truecaller worked to identify a number call me on 2g/3g sim card?

Lets just say that when sim 1 is active (on a call), sim 2 is disabled.

Nothing can be done about it, of all the phone only Huawei P7 and 8, from what I know has this feature, all the newer Huawei has removed the feature, and other manufacture thinks it's not worth having it.
