3G loses connection with dual sim - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
When I use both SIM together, 3G becomes very slow, and sometimes I lose my 3G connection. When I use only one SIM, its works perfectly.
Thanks

Thats why I hate Dual SIMs.

No such issues for me there,
Running 3g on both sims without any problemo xD

Same problem in 4.4 stock ROM.

How did you turn on 3g on the second sim? For me this setting is grayed out and on 2G.

I have this problem from time to time, after hours of good connection the speed goes down to edge or something. I just turn the non (3G data) used sim off and on again and it's ok for another couple of hours.

What a pity that the dual SIM has become a "trend" with the mid and low range!
Unfortunately, the "decent" phones are all in the higher price range category... SMH

You don´t have to put a second SIM into your device.No second SIM,no problem.

Yeah. I've now put my data SIM into my main development device (Nexus 5) and I'm using my G with only one SIM inserted as my daily driver...

HTC ONE Developer Edition Not Connecting to 2G network In India

Hi All,
I am using two Units of HTC One Developer Editions. With one handset the problem is it's connecting to 2G network. 3G works fine. I tried with MTNL sim and it worked and after that my first SIM which was not connecting to 2G also worked and after couple of hours situation came back and now the unit is only working with 3G network. Is there anyone else facing the same problem ??:crying:
Does anyone have any solution for this ??
Regards,
Mahesh
EDIT : After Doing S-OFF , now my handset it connecting to both the networks i.e. 2G and 3G
Thanks Moonlight Team ReOne Team

I'm sorry to hear this, why would you want to use high end phones on 2G network, no offense at all. Just curious

because In india there are some places where we do not have 3G connectivity..
It might just be wonky signal in your area for 2G.
Also if you are using hand cut old sim, just get it changed to proper micro sim from MTNL. I had similar issues with SGS4 and MTNL Mumbai sim until I changed the sim card itself. Hard to explain but it solved my issue. It was very old sim which I cut using sim cutter.
Not facing any issue with 2G signal at all. There are areas in certain areas where I have to go (mainly basement) where there is no 3G and 2G works just fine on EDGE.

So you mean to say there is no problem with the handset, cos it worked with MTNL. ??
But it's not working with MTNL and Airtel.....and yes Airtel SIM is very old i mean it's around 3 years old sim.
Thanks !!
The sim card issues in cases of cut sim cards is well documented to be honest. No matter how well we cut it, sometimes they just dont work right on these newer phones. Over last 1 year I had to get new micro sim for most of my and my family member's numbers as one fine day the cut sim will simply not catch network and then realised the common problem with them all. All of them were cut either using micro sim template by hand or using sim cutters. After getting proper micro sim, the problem went away. This is not specific to One but happens with lot of new phones that require micro sim including Nexus 4, SGS4 and Nexus 7 3G tablets.

Xiaomi Mi5 GSM issues. (Resolved)

Resolved: Wouldn't connect to T-Mobile networks, connected fine to AT&T. Guessing it was band limitations. (Should have checked bands.)
Here in California, USA and can't seem to even connect to the 2G/3G services on T-Mobiles networks. Popped in my SIM card last night and got a MetroPCS banner for about a second. Haven't been able to get it to work since. Always no bars, no service. Any tips?
Here's a screenshot of my lack of signal. I seem to get signal for a second, then it just disconnects. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
I bought new xiaomi m5 and straight away got problem with the touchscreen. If anybody had similar problem, will go to the shop to see what they say anyway.
Where did you buy yours? I had mine imported of course.

Just a hint: Try your frend sim card, if it doesn't work with that too, I would write to the shop to send back for repair or replace.
Yeah, hasn't worked with any SIM card. They do returns but not repairs/replaces.
What do you get when you dial: *#*#4636#*#*
Maybe you can optimize the settings?

I always get emergency calls only, it reads that there is a SIM card inserted for both slot 1 & 2 plus it reads the phone number of the card AND even contacts on the card but doesn't connect to the network. :/
is that some Quality Assurance issues or a general problem?
Also getting issues with signal, weaker than any other of phones , sometimes drops call, or caller hear me with pause, ( i'm techinician, repairing phones, having a lot of tests), i'm in EU. Because lack of band 20 4g+ isn't working here i think. Overall a lot of people got defective units. Mine also have loudspeaker problems, tryed to calibrate via service menu, still the same.

Xperia X Performance dual sim, 64gb in UK

Has any XDA members in the UK bought the X Performance dual sim, 64gb model? I can see it available on Amazon UK from a US seller.

I have one on order from a Hong Kong based seller named 'Allan' on eBay shipping from Ireland and should be arriving tomorrow with me. Cheaper than Amazon and also the Int'l version I am assured (so should have fingerprint reader). Quite looking forward to getting it
My phone arrived and it indeed has a working fingerprint scanner.
I'm kind of resigned to the fact that the entire Xperia range runs hot when shooting video, not ideal but I really like the binaural recordings it's capable of.
Glad you got one and are enjoying it! I'm loving mine!

I had the scanner for a bit what exactly can you use it for tried unlocking my phone with it instead of the pin didn't seem to work had it for about 3 days so far hoping to root within the next few days
I trained the scanner to recognise a finger on my left hand and the thumb on my right hand and it works fine for me, fast and reliable unlocking.

Thank you for the information! This is a big improvement over the Z5 as one SIM had to be on 2G (GSM) on it.
I am looking for a replacement as the 2G networks are getting shut down here.
What is the model number of your phone?

Cricket, Att Will this work?

Hi all, will this phone work on ATT and or Cricket? Is it a GSM phone? Will it get 4G if so? Thanks!!!
i have the mix on Cricket since December, it's on H+ most of the time and some times 4g depends on your location I guess, so it works on cricket and I'm not complaining on internet speed

I use it on Straight Talk (the AT&T sim). I live in Springfield Missouri and normally get LTE everywhere I go. The only real issue I have is when I do happen to lose LTE (receive/make a phone call, lose LTE in one particular room at my work, etc) it will stay on H+/3G until I go into settings and toggle between 3G then back to LTE again. Sucks, but not that big a deal since Straight Talk basically caps speed around 7-10 megs and H+/3G pretty much handles that speed anyway. But I haven't really had that many issues.
Mine is on Cricket and running fine in the Des Moines, IA area. I have a few hiccups here and there, but nothing drastic.
I have it with Att and works great always on Lte (tucson,Az). I get the hd voice and video calling as well. Only complain is I cant wait for mix 2 lol.
Straight talk ATT sim LTE all the time I live south of Chicago

Calling and using data at the same time (Norway)

Hello!
I recently bought the xiaomi but I have found out that I can not call and use 4G/3G at the same time which is extremely annoying!
Is there any way at all to fix this?
Thank you very much!

So there is no possibility for voLTE or similar on them is what you're saying?
I can use H (3G) while in calls but no LTE while in calls(voLTE).
But I may have to change my sim card to suport voLTE, since its an old AF sim card. I assume its my sim that is the issue since a friend of mine that has an iphone X (supports voLTE) had to ask for a new sim card to get it working.

Ask your carrier for a new sim card.
You sure your carrier supports it? (Don't know if it can be a carrier side thing)
