Hello All,
I'm using the One E8 with the following combination:
Slot 1 - Reliance CDMA UIM
Slot 2 - AirTel SIM
My requirement is to use the Reliance connection for voice and AirTel for both voice and data.
Having said that, I've selected Slot 2 to be my preferred data slot and have the default APN settings.
The Slot 2 is just not getting H or H+ (i.e. 3G signals) at all.
I'd read a couple of forums which say
"SIM 1 has 3G but SIM 2 only supports EDGE speeds"

Thank you.
I also checked with their technical support team.
It seems that Slot-1 can do 3G but Slot-2 can do 2G only.
In my case, I'll have to go back to Airtel and disable 3G and enable EVDO services with Reliance which is used in my Slot-1.

This ain't a Custom Rom; It's a normal stock version.
Dear @vinay.habib yes I knew that I have HTC one E8 M8SD China version and i had a problem with CDMA uim slot 1 was not accepted but when installing custom rom gsm/gsm both working well so I spent a lot of time to find another version supports CDMA but nothing till now could please send me any link for a custom rom support CDMA or if possible to send me a TWRP backup of your stock rom thats will make me very happy.

ansi_11111,
I understand your problem here...
But it might take me sometime to create a TWRP backup of my ROM as I'm to tied up with things at the moment.
Will notify you once done.
Dear all!
Thanks for the ones who tried helping me out here.
I now have my worries addressed very well.
Slot 1 - CDMA (carrier - Reliance, India)
Slot 2 - GSM (carrier - Airtel, India)
The slot 1 now has EvDo-rev.B activated and the data speed is just amazing!
The slot 2 had 3G activated, but now that data connection is taken care with slot 1, I'm gonna terminate my 3G services and continue with EvDo-rev.B.
Must say, E8 is such a masterpiece! :good:

I got myself a new nano-SIM from Reliance (the CDMA carrier) for slot 1 as the one I'd got cut into nano-size was too old.
And also got the EvDo services activated on my number.
Ergo, connection succeeded.
This is only for the cdma version right? Or can a person use a cdma SIM in the HTC one e8 gsm gsm ?
Swap cards
Couldn't you have just swapped the cards around?
Guys, thanks for your suggestions, but sorry for replying late.

Yep, you're right - this is the CDMA version, precisely M8sD, Dual.
And a CDMA SIM can't be used in a GSM-GSM!

I would love to do a swap here.
But for my requirement with CDMA and GSM running...
One must do this:
Slot-1: CDMA
Slot-2: GSM
The swap won't work in this handset as Slot-1 supports CDMA/GSM combination and Slot-2 is only GSM.
Moreover, I'm now happy with Reliance EvDo.rev-B running at superb speeds with no need of Airtel 3G at all!

Well carriers branded phones are locked to their original carrier. I guess you can sim-unlock it the usual way (using a sim-unlock code purchased from a reliable website of your choice e.g doctorsim.com).
And btw since your thread is a question, you should have posted this in the Q&A section
Oops, didnt read correctly
Call sprint customer service, ask to be transfered to 'international' , then ask the person to unlock your A9. Its that simple! I have a telcel sim in my sprint A9 right now!
Cheers,

Hi,
I purchased a sprint locked phone in USA and got it unlocked.
The phone is working with sim of another domestic carriers (USA) but not working with international sim card (India).
Can you please give me any directions on what to do?
Samsung is asking me to contact sprint and sprint says that they have unlocked it domestically and internationally as well and not able to provide any other support.
Thanks

Is it asking for a code on inserting Indian SIM? if so, it's not unlocked.. check ebay remote unlock method for abt 7-10usd.
If it's not asking for a code, Try to toggle aeroplane mode and see.
Or try flashing U1 firmware (unlocked model version)
it is not asking for any unlock code while entering Indian SIM card.
however, there is no signal if I insert indian SIM (tried Airtel and Jio so far). These sim are working in other cellphones.
