Convert F8131 to F8132?? - Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers

Hi,
do you think it's possible to convert a single sim to dual sim, like it is for example with the Moto X Play? Of course the image needs to be adjusted to the smaller flash in the single sim version.
In my country dual sim is only available via non official and expensive dealers.
Cheers

I'm not saying it's definitely not possible, but since u haven't bought it yet and u want a dual sim, my opinion is get an imported one maybe from ebay or somewhere else, not sure if that's much more expensive for u though.
Also single sim only have 32Gb internal storage and dual have 64Gb

If there will be custom roms for this device, does will F8132 (dual) roms work on F8131 (single)? (i mean only with SIM1 working)

Does anyone know

Does anyone know where I can purchase the Moto G5S Plus XT 1805 in the UK. This is the 32gb Dual sim version.
All the retailers I can find seem to sell only the 1803 which is the single sim edition. I want to buy it SIM free and not tied into a contract with a mobile service provider.
Thanks
The German Motorola site has dual sim version for sale. It doesn't say whether or not it's the XT1805, but it says "Dual SIM" under the "All specifications" section.

I bought it direct from Motorola - the one I received was the dual SIM version XT1805

I bought mine from Clove and I'm pretty sure mine is dual sim. Or at least it has a dual sim tray where the second slot is either sim or SD. Are you sure that the 1803 isn't dual sim? Remember there is the 3Gb/4Gb distinction and also the NFC/no NFC.
Edit: no, you're quite right. My XT1803, despite having a dual sim tray, is apparently single sim. Arse. Not that I have any use for two sims at the same time, I just don't like getting short changed.

Hello,
In Brazil, the model is XT1802 and it is Dual SIM, but it is: Dual SIM without microSD; or one SIM and one microSD.

Is there a dual sim version ?

Hi,
I am looking to change my xperia X Compact to XZ1 Compact, but i will need in a few month a dual sim phone.
Is there a dual sim version on the XZ1 Compact, or do i have to buy the XZ1 ?
Thanks
There is a version. I saw it in the Wondamobile store, and on eBay. Probably is only available in Asian markets, so you will need to use a reseller like the ones mentioned. Make sure you chose one that accepts Paypal and returns, to be safe. The only problem is that it also has only 32Gb and an hybrid tray (you need to chose between 2nd SIM or SD card), which I find insufficient nowadays. If it came with 64Gb of storage it would be mine already.

I highly doubt it, there's been misinformation all over the place about a dual sim variant, but to date no proof can be found from official sources.
Some rumors claim that a dual sim variant was in the works but cancelled at the last minute.
Chances are the specs you saw listed in the store and on eBay are false.
FWIW, only one model number (G8441) is listed under the XZ1 Compact on Xperifirm, a dual sim variant will have a different model number, possibly G8442 given the similar naming schemes of the XZ1 and XZ Premium.
That said, I'd very much like to be proven wrong since I'm also in the market for a dual sim variant.
Thanks for the answers.
I just look at xpericheck.com, and there is actually only one version for the XZ1 Compact.

Australian Telco note 9 dual SIM functionality

Hi all,
I've signed up for a note 9 plan since my new job allows allowance for work mobile. However the sim tray is not hybrid at all(the second sim slot can only for micro sd card) . I've managed to cut the SIM so that it fits into the second slot, however unable to get this to work.
The SIM works fine if it's plugged into sim 1 slot. Has anyone got any solutions to this? Any input would be appreciated

Sounds like you device is of the single-SIM variety.
Even if you bought a dual-SIM Tray to use,it will be of no benefit,you have a single-SIM phone.
Flashing firmware that works on known dual SIM phones will not do it either,many have tried various things,the functionality simply isn't there (presumably a hardware issue,it's simply not there).
FWIW,I tried a dual-SIM Tray on my US (T-Mobile Note 9),& nada. I knew what to expect going in,but,had to quash the slight bit of false hope.
The Exynos single SIM Note 9's are the same.

That's quite disappointing, it was one of the reasons why I got Samsung phone after all..
All of Samsung's Webpage indicates that all note 9s are capable of dual SIM functionality. I guess I should have double checked with Telco to see if they have locked the Dual SIM functionality..
Appreciate your input tho man. Cheers

I've never seen anything stating all Note 9's are capable of Dual-SIM functionality, but, I'm in the US, where Dual-SIM phones are the exception vs the single SIM variety.
The only phone that I'm aware of that has Dual-SIM capabilities, but, ships with both Single-Sim and Dual-SIM firmwares is the OnePlus 6T.
You could try a Dual-SIM tray & flashing a SIM-Free firmware that's known to work on Dual-SIM phones to find out with certainty.
The trays are cheap enough, I got mine from eBay for less than $10 USD.
I hope I'm proven wrong, but honesty, I'd keep my expectations low.
Please keep us posted on your outcome.

Note 9 SM-N960F single sim to dual sim

Hi guys,
I have got a note 9 Exynos 9810 from Telekom EU operators but it only have one sim-slot, is there methods to use as dual sim?Thanks very much.
No as it hardware not software

Sell it and buy a dual SIM
Samsung s9 note SM-N960N ? Dual sim.
I bought 1 in HK. It has the Korean KT logo at start up. Literature says dual sim. But phone has a different sim tray where it is not possible to fit a second sim in sd slot.
I have tried getting info from Samsung, but I might just as well have tried booking a trip to the moon.
So anyone know about this or where to buy the right sim tray and experiment with second sim card
Thanks

Have you tried turning the SIM 90 degrees to fit in the MicroSD card slot in the tray?
Thanks for suggestion

If you look at pictures of a tray with 2 sim cards, they both have the same orientation so contacts on board should be in this position.
Also rotating 90 degrees does not provide a proper seat for the sim card

Hi guys. has anyone tried a dual sim card tray in the single sim version of the Note 9?
In my single sim huawei mate 9, i flashed to europe firmware and bought a dual sim card tray and now its a proper dual sim phone. as i havent loaded the dual sim firmware i cannot set which is my primary sim unless i stick the primary sim into the main tray place. But it works..
There are some videos on the youtube. I don't know is these are fraud or not. Who has the knowledge about the mainboard differences ?
Since i can not post any links due to new member thing, there is the video ids.

Anyone know where I can get the dual SIM plus dedicated microSD slot version?

Basically, that's my question. Other posts talk about the hybrid version but I need the one where I can use two SIMs and the microSD at the same time. I know it exists, according to LG and GSMarena, but I can't find it to buy. It looks like the Australian version MAY be dual SIM plus dedicated microSD, although I haven't had that confirmed, but so far I haven't been able to find an Australian shop that ships to the US.
Anyone know where I can get one? Ebay hasn't been any help either.
There isn't one. The AU/NZ version is hybrid dual SIM too.
Global Dual SIM versions are all LM-V405EBW.
Thanks. OK, I'm going to have to give up on the V40. If I really want the dual SIM plus microSD, I'm going to have to look closely at the new Asus Zenfone 6. Only LCD and no wifi but life is full of having to make difficult choices.
