I have a problem with my dual sim adapter Magicsim Elite. If I want to use the second sim I have to restart the phone. First sim works without restart. What should I do? Flight mode makes no difference.
My phone is Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 (not rooted).
I have the same thing. However I don't have Magic SIM but some other brand. Switching works but phone needs to be restarted to complete the switch between SIM cards.

I got my htc mini a few days ago. worked fine, and then it started to have no signal but data worked. so i got i new sim card from my carrier and all worked for a day.then the same thing happend. and the first sim card was micro sim card and the second was a nano simcard with adapter to micro sim.
I have trayd to put my phone back to factory settings, searched manually for network, trayd to remove and install the sim countless times with no luck. the sim card is trayd in another phone and it dosen't work there neither. and the phone is not rooted or anything like that
So i was wondring if it can be the phone that destroys the sim cards or maby i am unlucky with sim card?
Can anyone explain to me why my cell phones only detect and show that a sim is inserted for certain sim cards? For example, my S3 is able to detect a Koodo micro sim, but when I put in a Fido micro sim, it will not detect it and say no sim card inserted. Same goes for my spare dual sim phone. Any reasons why?

This could happen because your phone might be locked to a particular carrier. Search your device forum for help on unlocking.
Hey guys,
I have a new HTC E8, rooted like any respectable XDA member. I'm from India and travelling to Singapore, and there's some weirdness with my Airtel nano SIM and the SIM 2 slot. I have a local SIM with 3G in Slot 1.
For the first two days, Slot 2 would occasionally disappear, with the phone claiming there was no SIM in it. Opening and closing the tray would restore the connection. On day three, this stopped working. No amount of reinserting would get the phone to recognise the SIM.
So I swapped the SIMs and both work. Swapped them back and the Airtel doesn't work in Slot 2. The local M1 SIM has no problem in either slot, but I obviously get only 2G in Slot 2, and the whole point of a local SIM and a dual SIM phone is to get cheap data when on roaming.
Help me figure this out? Either the Airtel SIM doesn't like Slot 2 anymore (it used to work), and refuses to work on it, or the phone doesn't like the SIM, or there's simply a loose contact (but that doesn't explain why the other SIM works).
The Magicsim Dual Sim Card adapter may not work with the Note 4.
It seems to be because of the way the Note 4 boots up and looks for the sim card. The dual sim adapter takes a few seconds longer than a single sim to initialize and load, which seems to be too long the OS is willling to wait. With the device installed you will be prompted with a sim card detection error and an only option to restart. It's a dialog box you cannot remove or get past. It shows up a few seconds after boot. The phone will still continue to load and you will eventually see the dual sim toolkit in the apps menu (if you load it before restart prompt appears) but you still have no choice to restart. Rebooting the phone in airplane mode will allow the phone to boot all the way, but once you turn it off the same forced restart prompt appears.
I verified the adapter works by testing it on a Note 2 with Cyanogenmod and it functions perfectly.
The Note 4 is the 910C with Android 4.4.4, stock firmware, not rooted.
The packaging of the adapter suggests it is for the Note 4.
I can confirm, the Magicsim Dual Sim Card adapter works perfect with Note 4 (5.01 Lollypop)...

My magicsim works only for 2 months. After that it was defect.
Yep works perfectly on my Note 4, got the one from www.magic-sim.com specifically for the Note 4, comes with a 1 year warranty i believe
On eBay, I remember, I saw there were some dual sim adapters that you could simultaneously have call/text on one and data on another... but I can't find now. Any body have seen this? All I see are Dual Standby dual sim adapters, which doesn't do for me... and I don't really like the idea of Gmate Plus.
I tried my magicsim but it only detects the first sim, whenever I try the change sim via the menu, the phone boots ...
thanx for sharing
I have a doubt, my phone is double Sim Card, but the company delivered it blocked with a sim slot, the sim tray has plugged the slot for the other sim. I got the tray with the two slots open and I do not read the two sim only one, is that if I download the original samsung firmware will enable the other sim?
My phone is a Samsung Galaxy J5 Prime (SM-G570M)
Are you certain you actually have the dual-SIM model of the phone? It seems more likely that they have shipped you the normal one-SIM model by accident, rather than that they have taken a dual SIM phone and stuffed a one SIM tray in it and changed the firmware to disable the second SIM.
If you in fact have a one SIM phone, return it and ask them to send the correct model. The single SIM model of the phone doesn't have the connector or circuitry there to read a second SIM.
