Dual Sim 3G compatible for Desire

has anyone used or is using a Dual Sim holder in a HTC Desire, or know of one that works/fits nicely?
I currently tuck an alternative sim between the battery and the back cover but have to take the battery out etc to exchange, would like a simpler solution.
lol same as me mate..i also keep spare 8gb card behind my case too been looking into this apparently it has to be 3g compatble ones- gonna take a punt and try one from ebay-will post a link and let you know results.
apparently some folks are using on nexus 1 so shouldnt be too difficult- also hypercard are selling some at £70(well euros) but not far off. fcuk that gonna look for cheaper alt.
Any news on this dread123 as its something i was thinking about too.
Ive never had any sucess with a dual sim, i just use a super sim in my desire so i can use three sims and dont mess around with any extra bits. Just 1 sim card thats it

check there..got the dual sim working perfect now
hpsda and full 3g speeds..no call dropping ...no problems at all.able to switch from sim toolkit app on phone.
I am using Hypercard V3 which works on 3G too. It only reboots after switching too my vodafone card. Switching from vodafone to O2 no Problem works without reboot. You get a SIM Toolkit Icon on the Home Screen for switching.
Thanks for the replies guys, time to do a bit of reading up

Seems i was given false information, was told super sims dont work on uk sim cards so i gave up on that option.

[Q] Sim card not found

Alright, lately after I unlock my phone it tells me that my sim card is not found. It bugs me a lot because I have to shut the phone down and take the card out and back in. No, I didnt drop it and it isnt rooted. Is it my sim card or the phone? And if it keeps doing this, should I send it into ATT?
if you have some compressed air i'd blow it in the sim card slot, but thats probably not the problem i would take it to AT&T and try to get a new sim card or have them look at your phone
Is the sd/sim cover flush?

Is it the SD card that came with the phone, or one you bought separately?

I had to go get a new SIM card today because the original was not connecting. It initially didn't enable a network signal, so the gal rebooted my phone....and of course saw my custom boot animation and status icons and what not...I don't think she had seen a rooted phone before...said something about "you've really bling'd this thing out haven't you? This is the most customized phone I have ever seen"... [sheepish grin]
Pull out the batery and turn on with the sim card inside.

Try the battery pull mentioned above. If it keeps happening then try getting a new sim from att. If the issue persist then call att they will more then likely replace the phone.

Oops. I thought he said SD card. No wonder no one answered that question of mine. Lol

Simple mobile on HTC One S?

My brother has the HTC One S and I have a quick question.
I cut my SIM card and it's going in with no problem at all.
Thing is, the phone dosen't read the SIM card but it reads my T-Mobile SIM card.
Doe's the phone need to be unlocked or what?
Nope....I've been having simple mobile for a while now and all I did was cut the sim insert it in the phone and changed the apn and it worked right away. You don't have to unlock or root the phone for it to work. Maybe u cut too much of it

Mind telling me the exact APN settings you put?
Make sure you cutted it right. I cut it myself too, but somehow I messed it up, so I had to request a new simcard. You could always try with an other phone offcourse.
I messed up the SIM card by cutting it the wrong way.
I got a pro to cut it and it worked.

hi , this happens mostly when you insert a corrupted sim card .for example you cut it for creating micro sim and didn't do well . please be careful be aware of any pressure and hard action when you are trying to insert sim card .
anyway , you should show issue to a expert shopper to look accurately .

The HTC One S did have problems with the SIM card locking in place or something similar. I believe it was just loose and the SIM card couldn't be read. You should try and get a new SIM, if that doesn't work it is your phone.

My son try to help me and cut the sim. End up with broken sim tray and had to replace($89 at shop). Then I got the micro sim from carrier. 2 weeks latter I get the "no sim" message. Had to re-set the sim. Work for next week and happen again. Then I read about the "tape trick". Put 1 or 2 layers of clear tape on back of sim and the problem was gone. 3 months, and still do not have sim problem. I learn that most of the micro sim devices have that problem ( HTC and Samsung).

[Q] Chinese Opo Will not work on any carrier :(

Which is why you shouldn't purchase a non compatible phone, for use in another area?
This is why you shouldn't buy this phone from the scalpers. The chinese version does not support many of the worldwide bands that the "global" version of the phone does. My advice would be to try to sell it to someone who can use it and sign up on the OnePlus forums and wait for an invite for the CM version which supports the bands you need.
Get a new sim, sounds like an old sim that doesn't have the updated CellID info in it.
I had to change my 3 sim when I had my SGS4 as it wouldn't register because it was too old.

I had that happen to me on the interational one and felt quite dumb afterwards...
Make sure the SIM card tray is rotated DOWN so that the contacts on the sim card look to the back of the phone.
It will fit both ways (imho a very strange design choice) but with a tiny little space left when rotated the wrong way.
In other words: turn the phone on it's screen before inserting the sim card facing you.
I have _NO_ clue why the phone thinks it has a SIM card when obviously it cannot access it...
