Hey guys, i want to remove that NO SIM icon from status bar of my MOTO G XT1033 dual sim!!
as i use only one sim, if there is any solution to remove it without rooting, that'll be appreciated!!

Flash the single sim firmware.
i don't want to void the warranty!! any other method!!

boost CDMA asking for sim card
Hello. First time posting in a forum. Many thanks to all who have guided me..
I had to give a friend my boostmobile moto g because I was so lost trying to get it back to working order. When he gave it back it worked in all ways except it now asks for a sim card. Its CDMA and never had a sim nor is there a spot for one. Does anyone know what went wrong and how to fix it. Its the 8gb and now has the cyanogenmod on it. I have no service on it now

I did it on mine about two months ago and it's perfect. Give me one good reason why I shouldn't have done it.
@OP
No, there is no other method. Either by rooting or unlocking the bootloader, will break your warranty. Live with the second sim icon or do it already.

Give me one good reason to buy a dual Sim version if you flash on it single version firmware.
Btw, if it's working, kudos!

8gb more internal space, perhaps?

I don't see the connection between dual Sim and 16G.

Well the XT1033 variant has two versions, and the one I bought is 16gb which is the only reason I bought it instead of the XT1032's only version of 8gb. I don't give two left f*** about the two sims, only about the internal space. Also I was interested on the extra shells for design purpose. There you have it, the connection you wanted.
Anyway it's not the point of the topic and I believe the OP has been given the choice above.
Installed the latest U.S firmware onto my Canadian phone. I'm seeing a SIM toolkit app now. It doesn't really open when I try to run it.
What's the app do anyway?
it's for dual sim phones
Cool, thanks.

I couldn't find the firmware of this model on sammobile.... Can I use odin to flash SM-g930F ??
Would I brick my phone?
I have found a TWRP flash instruction , can it be applied on the model SM-G930FD??
You have a dual sim phone, i wouldn't flash a firmware from a single sim phone.
In the title it mentions fd so it should work http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/development/recovery-official-twrp-herolte-t3333770

Are you from UAE? I had this is in mind when I was buying this phone. Thought about waiting few more months for Souq and SharafDG Online to show up with the Global version(Single SIM). But decided to go with the DUOS for warranty purpose. Moreover I love TouchWiz now. How is your battery life and device temperature like? You pre-ordered?

I am from Taiwan, here, we can only get the international version, which is a dual sim card. The battery life, to be honest, not as good as other 3000mAh phone such as xioami 4,my last used phone. But with the quick charge, it almost get full charge after I plugin for 60 mins, so the battery life wont be concerned :good:

There's no custom rom yet for our s7, even the kernel isn't working well just yet. However, I've just deodexed my stock rom, I'm trying to make one simple custom (TW based) rom.

If we can flash the TWRP why can't be the ROM of the GLOBAL version(SM-G930F). Just we'll lose the Dual SIM capability, Right? Correct me if I'm wrong.
PS: I didn't buy S7 bcoz it had dual sim slots. Just bcoz I couldn't get Single SIM variant here in Dubai.

You're right. I will test it after a firmware for G930FD arrives so I have something to go back to. I too want a single sim variant only but here in the Philippines, only dual sim variant is available so I had no choice.
Hi..Long time lurker here..Just want to say something..
I got my S7 G930FD from Globe on March 14..Able to Sim Unlock it just the other day using a Paid Legit Unlock Site..But even if it's sim unlock there is still some bloat Globe had left in my phone...
To shorten my story I decided to flash a G930F rom..Specifically G930FXXU1APB6-G930FXXU1APB6-G930FOLB1APB6 that came from Samfirm.net..
All is working fine..I still have dual sim..I can both use 3G/LTE on both Sim(Not simultaneous of course)..
So I can confirm it's safe to flash Single Sim Rom to the Dual Sim Variant as long as both is F (G930F - G930FD)..

That's great news! I don't like how the messaging app shows an indication that sim 1 or 2 is being used. Was that removed after flashing G930F? Also what's your model number now? Thanks in dadvance.
Right now im not using a second sim but a microsd..Unfortunately there is still a number in the messaging app..Mine still shows 1 because im only using Sim 1..
Mine still shows SM-G930FD..

Too bad. That's what i've been trying to remove, the indication that the phone is a dual sim variant. Heck, if i can also remove the "duos" on the back of the phone i will gladly do it.
Anyway, if that is the case, doesn't that mean that there will be no official firmware to be released specifically for G930FD? Interesting.

You can change the icon in SIM Manager..I changed mine to an Envelope Icon..
I'm using a Neo Hybrid Case so the Duos on the back is covered..

I've got dual SIM version 955FD and would like to flash UK EE 955F software via odin so I can take benefit of VoLte function. Is this possible and will both SIM still work?

If you were to flash, would you be requiring Root and TWRP or simply via Odin?

You can't possibly do that since many extra features will be present in the dual sim firmware than compared to the single sim firmware . Play safe :laugh:

The dual SIM variant uses the SAME firmware as the single SIM variant. You CAN flash other firmware with no problem. You will lose nothing at all.

Service is fine, just as it is on my F s7 edge and note 7 FD .
I dont think VoLTE works with it out of the box but that's not overly important to me anyway nor is wifi calling etc.
Id rather lose some unimportant features that i dont care about then get stuck with a locked bootloader piece of junk device that i cant mod if I want to

Features such as, Settings/Connections/SIM CARD MANAGER which allows you to chose from one SIM or both and more. I believe the normal version does not have this section, it does not make any sense. Can you confirm?

.Are there any way to clue out which modem firmware that should work correct on the European version of OPO on Lineage os 7.1?
My phone only works well if I have LTE, on 3g and 3g plus it only works a few times, sometimes I cant call or people cant call to my phone.

The only way to know which firmware is best for you is to flash one by one and prefer which one gives you better results.

Maybe the OPO doesn't support the wcdma band that your carrier works on.
