found thread on buzz dev - General Topics

does anything like this exsist?
i am looking for a program to have two sim cards on my pocket pc, i mean it should simulate 2 sim cards. please note that i am not looking for SIM Adaptor or hardware attachments..

Yes. That exists.
But:
1) You need to extract the data of your original SIM-cards by bruteforce. Newer SIM-cards (with less than 2-3 years are protected against such attacks and will lock themselfes, which mean you will need to exchange them for new ones at your oprator).
2) You may have up to 10 SIM-cards emulated on one ATMega smartcard. Hoever, you may only be logged on with one number at any given time, obviously.
3) You should take care NOT to use more than one card (original or clone) at any given time, as the operator may blacklist your SIM.

Sim card cloning

Any info on sim card cloning or a backup image(not just your phone numbers I mean everything that the sim has in it) but doing this with a smartphone.
Is it possible?
Look for a program called "Jeyo Mobile Companion". It should handle what you're trying to do.
i was looking for this but now it seems that its impossible

mods can you delete this thread please
Hi,
I have successsfully clones my SIM and have now the original one and three clones.
Basically you need to extract some values (KI and anotherone, which name I forgot) out of your original SIM. This is done through a Smartcard-Reader (Phoenix-Mode). The software you need is available for free, however all this is done by bruteforcing your SIM.
Recent SIM-cards are resistant against these attacks and will lock themselfs, which makes them useless: they will have to be replaced. When I say recent, that means all cards distributed in the last 5 years AT LEAST!
If you can read spanish, here is the only link you need: http://simemu.cjb.net
Also, if you succed in cloning your SIM, you should always pay attention TO NOT HAVE TWO CLONES TURNED ON AT THE SAME TIME, as the provider will naturally detect the same SIM to be connected twice.
What's nice about this is that you can actually clone different SIM's into on single smartcard and then change numbers/operators, without turning your phone on and off. Naturally you will be connected to only one number at any given time.
Hope this helps a little.

Displaying Phone Number 1 from Sim Manager on Today Screen, how?

Hello guys,
forgive me if there is an existing thread or this is the wrong sub forum.
I have an Artemis with a dual sim and want to show the active card on my today screen. All of the existing programs (Simdisplay, Simtoday, Phonealarm etc) do not work properly, i.e. they bring my Artemis to a freeze after a while and/or consume battery power way too much.
However, WinMobile6 has the essentials onboard: the HTC Sim Manager - once been typing in the individual numbers of each SIM initially - it shows the actual phone number.
Question: how can I extract this information of phone number 1 and display it on my today screen (for example with a simple program that displays one line of raw text program)? Moreover, this extraction has to be done frequently and updated, with a script maybe?
Does the SIM Manager store this phone number somewhere, perhaps in the registry? Just as a beginning
Many many thanks for your help and greetings from germany!

[Q] Android Search n Rescue!

Hi im an N1 user and would like to ask if there is any app on the market which will help me with search and rescue of my phone.
It must be compatible with all versions of android (my sister is still having to work with 1.6 on the Tattoo!)
It must provide a facility wherein a background process will run and detect that a new SIM card has been inserted send the new SIM pin number (or better still the actual tel no of the sim inserted) to a predesignated number via SMS. This way, the GPS being on/off or the wifi/gprs/3G activity is not a requirement.
Probably the only workaround would be if the thief is smart enough to reinstall the entire OS on the phone before putting in the new SIM. (then i guess im just screwed!)
looking forward to the experts input here at xda.
Thanks.

[Q]Choose between 1 or 2 sims, work and personnal usage

Hi everyone !
I am long time reader, and I*have to say, this forum help me a lot, thanks to all of you, I have always found needed information to root, or update phones.
Not a pro, but I have rooted and install lot of roms on several devices, phone and tablet, I am not afraid to root
But today, I have a choice to make, and I need help because of the multiples things to consider, and my absolutely zero experience on dual sim phone.
Now I have 2 galaxy note 2 (gt-n7100) both with the really good resurrection remix rom.
One for work, and one for home.
I have about 600€ (715$) to change a device. I need advices and feedback from you.
I use my phones to do social (both work and home), so I*need two facebook, two twitter, two whatsapp ...
Two possibilities for me:
- just one, but I need to completely isolate work and home (phone calls, messages ...)
- one with 2 sims (I always need to isolate apps)
What I want is:
- separate work and home
- separate contacts (and sync separately - private cloud for work, and just google for home)
- disable work contacts (when I am off, I want my phone off for work contacts but not for private ones, even if I have just one sim, same for sms)
- have separate history of calls, sms, everything
To isolate things I have seen this app:
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=es.excellentapps.multipleaccounts BUT root is needed
- here I see this one, but no update for a long time https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...el-space-multiple-accounts-t3308715?nocache=1 @eoc
I was thinking to take the mate 8 dual sim, but, after reading some thread here, it seems to be tricky to root, and I read lot of people scared about bricks.
But it seems doable : https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-how-to-root-mate-9-decrypt-data-t3569986
My second choice is S7 edge (because I don't think I*have enough € to choose the s8, and definitely not for note 8 )
- https://forum.xda-developers.com/sitesearch.php?q=s7 edge root
- https://www.xda-developers.com/xda-...-qualcomm-galaxy-s7s7-edge-on-android-nougat/
We don't have s7 with dual sim here.
Privacy is not a real issue for me, I use a vpn when i am online, and I have nothing to be ashamed of with my private use ^^.
Most important part, we are a few team, and I am the IT guy, so no one will manage my phone remotely, the worst could be my associate seeing the numbers I call, and perhaps text message (but not sure about that either).
The main benefit having the dual sim is to shut down completely the work number when I am off.
You see another benefit ?
If I can do the same with some app/configuration I can use one phone with one of the two apps (on another if you have some feedback).
Thanks for your help, I hope my message is clear, I have tried at least
After more thinking the real thing is to find an app to isolate work and private contacts, and allow the phone to act like is turn off when I turn of my works contacts
Any leads ?

Question S22 Ultra: SIM card required to start setup (T-Mobile version from Samsung.com)

Hi. I received my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra 5G smartphone, which I ordered from Samsung.com (I chose the T-Mobile version when ordering). After turning on the phone for the first time, at the Welcome screen, when I click the Start button, I get the message, "Insert SIM card from your service provider for network service."
I can't find a way to bypass this message. I was initially thinking if I could connect to my WiFi, it'd go away, but there's absolutely no way to connect to WiFi or access any settings.
I upgrade my smartphones every 15 months and have had T-Mobile for nearly a decade, and this is the first time I've seen such a thing during setup. I like to keep my SIM card in my current smartphone until the new one is fully set up, at which point I would transfer the SIM card over. I have a lot of services I use that rely on SIM card (i.e., not fully cloud-based and are tied to the SIM card), and not having that service during setup may be an issue. Also, I have received brand new phones that have had issues in the past (e.g., poor battery life, screen problems), so I'd rather fully test the new phone before transferring my SIM over.
The workaround I thought of: Put in a temporary T-Mobile SIM card, just to complete the setup process. Once setup has completed, I'll put my actual SIM card into the phone, or have T-Mobile transfer my phone number to the new SIM card. Thoughts?
Thank you.
It's because you got the T-Mobile phone so it wants you to connect to the network first before using it or continuing with setup. A way to get around that is to install the u1 firmware.
IIRC you can hold the volume down button for 5 seconds at the sim required screen to bypass the requirement. There's a help article somewhere that documents this.
As far as I know, Samsung requiring a SIM card during initial setup has been around for a long time. Nothing to do with your carrier. Even my unlocked phone from Samsung required a SIM card on first boot before continuing. There are of course ways around that, but beware. I bypassed the SIM card requirement setting up my S21 Ultra and spent a day configuring it to my liking. Then I popped the SIM card in from my old phone and it caused a factory reset erasing all my hard work. Probably because my carrier wanted to install all their software and settings. Not saying the same thing will happen to you, but just something to be aware of.
Here is the link to the eSIM setup (bypass SIM requirement)

Sticking a SIM from another carrier after eSIM set up should not cause a hard reset under normal circumstances, it does cause a reboot into bootloader to deploy the new carrier specific customizations from cache, but this is supposed to be transparent to user data. It broke if it caused a hard reset ;\

Technically, this worked, but this burned me badly. I appreciate the workaround, but I highly recommend against it. See below.

This is exactly what happened to me on the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. This is literally the most annoyed I have ever been at an electronic consumer device.
I spent over 21 hours over the span of 6 days setting up the phone. I put in the SIM card and was presented with a message stating, "SIM card detected. Restart your phone to start using your new SIM card." I could not use the phone at all, so my only option was to restart. After I hit the Restart button, the phone restarted. For less than 3 seconds, it showed a black screen with a small Android logo, with the small text "Erasing." Then the phone started up and everything is as if it's a brand new phone. Everything I've spent time working on is all gone.
Hello Team, important information, when it is asking for the carrier sim card, you need press volumen up + volumen down + power button at the same time for few seconds, then it will say a message like "Unlocked" then proceed with the first configuration.
This is for people who is going to use with a different provided, please let me know if you heard or read this info in another link (because i did not find that)
