Hey guys,
My girlfriend bought a s710, and is on the UK Three network.
The phone is meant to be SIM free, and works fine with my Orange SIM card in, but not her Three SIM card. It says the card in not valid.
Any ideas? Is the s710 not capable of using the SIM card?
htc-s710
if the unit is branded htc then its sim free 100 %
if its branded orange spv e650 then its locked to orange uk
and then ur job will to ask orange uk for unlock code or to unlock it via http://www.imei-check.co.uk/e650unlock.php
gd luck
Cheers Motin.
It's branded HTC, bought from www.handtec.co.uk as a SIM free, but still refuses to accept her SIM card at all.
htc-s710
u should make sure all sim cards are clean from scratch
if they are u r off to send it back to htc for replace there should not be any problem with the unit and it should except any sim card
thanks
I don't know but I thought three was only a 3G operator? And the S710 is not a 3G phone. could that not be the problem?
htc-s710
i can only confirm to you i am using an orang 3g sim card on my htc -s710 and i have now tried 2 more sim cards that are 2.5 generation and all working 100 %
thanks
Yes but if it is as I think that tree only has a 3G network the phone won't work there since it is not supporting 3G?
htc - s710
now i fully understand you
my dear the 3 network is only 3g so any sim from 3 network will work only on a 3g phone !!!
thanks
Hello everybody, especall Italian people. I was looking for a dual sim adapter for my htc diamond and i found out that only the simore one seems to work fine with h3g usims. Mine is new and I would combine it with another sim of WIND ITA (I just can't fin out the way to understand if it's 64k or 128k)
Anyway, anybody have a cheaper adapter? (simore costs about 40€!!!) but i would appreciate more the answers of those who have it with an h3g (doesn't matter the country i think) usim and another one. Thanks
Hello everyone!
My mother was on China tour early May 2014, when she was in NingBo(china mainland)she bought a ZTE Smartphone Grand Memo N5S
This smartphone has 2 slots SIM card which is slot1 for 3GCDMA and slot 2 for GSM.
After Arriving from China Tour she tried to use the phone In Indonesia with 2 Sim Cards GSM and CDMA inserted, but unfortunately the CDMA not work* the SIM Card cannot be Detected but the GSM Work well.I was wondering why because the CDMA frequency In Indonesia is the same as frequency from china* and same as per ZTE specification (双网双待CDMA 800 GSM900/1800/1900), I then borrow china sim card from my chinese friend who works in Indonesia.
It works ! and CDMA slot card can detect the sim card from china and starts on roaming mode also able to send and recieve call from my local networks.
So the conlusion is the CDMA slot card is locked by provider which is China Telecom. I Need your help to a give me Sim card network code so that I can USE the CDMA phone here in Indonesia. I have tried 3 CDMA SIM cards from Indonesia which are Telkom Flexi, Smartfren and Esia but no one of them can be used in your ZTE Device N5S. Please help
In order to do Network Unlock, you will have to either contact China Mobile or look for an Unlock Code on Ebay.
Hey all,
I received this beautiful samsung flip phone designed inspired from yesteryear as a gift from a good mate in China:
http://www.samsung.com/cn/smartphones/samsung-w2017/SM-W2017ZKYCTC/ [use Google Translate - see specifications more for supported GSM bands (a lot of them are AU compatible) but then goes to say phone only works in China, Macao, HK and Taiwan!]
I'm in Australia but I'm finding that out of the two SIM CARD slots. Slot 1 (4G LTE) does not work and a message pops up saying 'It's detected that your inserted card doesn't match the terminal. Please replace it with a China Telecom 4G user card in time'. Slot 2 works fine (but only 2G service!!) which is pretty useless.
Any chance any of you can point me to a solution? My friend tells me the store never provided any prior notice that the phone was locked to the China Telecom telco, simple the GSM frequency bands. Are there any XDA guru's who can cook an unlocked ROM for this phone as it's only released/sold out of China...
Any help, greatly appreciated - would hate to send this back!!!!
Anybody....? Really lovin' this phone, but would be AWESOME if anyone can help me unlock it's 3G/4G SIM Slot 1! I've been liaising with this sim-unlock.net site, are they trustworthy and can do the job? Clearly told them phone is not asking for any unlock code, just doesn't accept non-China Telecom SIM cards for sim slot 1.

Greetings and welcome to assist. Unfortunately I don't know of anyway to carrier unlock samsung phones without either going to the original carrier or a third party unlocking service. The second sim for 2g is normal in china, they have one sim for calls (2g) and one for data (4g)
Regards
Sawdoctor
Any third party unlocking service that you know will do the job? I really need to get the 4g slot working to make the phone worhtwhile using!
Hi,
I preordered a sim-only p20 from carphonewarehouse in the UK. Everywhere it says it's a dual sim phone as standard, but have heard contradicting things on posts online.
If you received yours in the UK, is it dualsim or not?
many thanks

Hi,
I pre-order mine in O2 (UK) as they were one of two reselers that supposed to have dual sim version (second was Three), that was at least according to oficial uk huawei site, when you could pick color version: single/dual sim and then list of reselers appeared.
Today I got mine and it is a single sim, even they have ensured my it is dual, I have opened the box at home to see that sim tray has only one slot, second one is kinda blocked.
My model: EML-L09
FCC ID: QISEML-L09
I have checked in the settings if that's only the sim tray that I need to change to dual sim, however there is no option at all regarding dual sim, as I have in my dual sim huawei nova, so software also doesn't support it in this version.
Going to return it tomorrow, or replace with dual sim, if they have it.

It will be surely single SIM from cpw, Voda, EE, 3, O2 etc , dual SIM are only if you buy from Huawei direct and from some other retailer

Received mine yesterday from CPW UK and it is only single SIM card.
Three UK are dual sim models
I'll get mine tomorrow, will return if single sim straight away.
unless there is an adapter one could buy to make it dual SIM
Does anybody know if the model EML-L09 is the single or dual sim model?
I'd rather leave it wrapped unless it was the dual sim model.
Many thanks

As far as I know, only Three in the UK sell the dual SIM version. Their prices are higher than all other providers, but I wanted the dual SIM so went with Three. My model is L29
Singke/dual SIM...
Hi, from Portugal, mine has dual SIM...

I think only L29 is dual sim. That's mine...
Today after 2 weeks! I have received oficial reply from Huawei, how to distinguish which one is dual sim:
"Regarding you question, please be informed that on the original box of the devices you can found two IMEI numbers (the number has 15 digits and it starts with 86). If they appear on the box means that the device is dual SIM."
Cheers
Can anyone confirm the difference between the l-09 and l-29 in terms of uk useability? Will both work fine on all uk networks or is one a global/non global version etc that will only work in some countries.
Not bothered about single/dual sim atall- is that the only difference?
Thanks
