Huawei reports SIM1 to support 2G/3G/4G and SIM2 2G only.
I wonder if SIM2 may work in 3G/4G at least when SIM1 is deactivated?
yes. some Chinese managed to hack 3/4G for sim2.

More info.
The method involves flashing a custom cust.img. Or replace codes in local.prop.
Then sim1 and sim2 can be switched on an interface that any 1 use 4/3/2G the other stay with 2G.
Does not release more frequencies to any sim.
Does not support both sims on 3/4G. 1 must at 2G.
Update: did NOT work for me. I am on 2.3. Maybe need 3.0 to make it work.
yeah,it works,nice feature.

Can you make a guide so we can try it also?
power off the phone, enter fastboot mode (while holding volume down insert usb cable and wait till fastboot screen appears), flash cust.img from link provided hereinafter using fastboot.exe and restart the phone.
all flashing at your own risk. original thread states it is for b310 and factory resets should be done before and after flashing. I did not do any resets, also I am not on b310 and it works w/o problem

Hi nrpetons,
What ROM are you using? I have the L12 and I want to kick out the original huawei rom and your ROM it what I was looking for
It worked for me also
ROM 5.1.16 dev
I am on some custom chinese based on 5.2.1 for l02.
I believe it will work for l12 with any version of emui 3 roms.

Activate 4G on second sim without flashing cust.img
Important update on this hack !!!
I don`t know much about programming, but this is what I did to activate this option WITHOUT flashing the cust.img provided.
I edited local.prop and added the following lines at the end:
Code:
ro.config.dsda_single_rild=false
ro.hw_sglte_shareantenna=true
ro.lte_gsm_shareantenna=true
persist.radio.svlte_psshock=600,4,1200
persist.sys.dualcards=true
ro.config.hw_dts=true
ro.config.hw_nxp_eeapi=true
hw.npm.asyncntp=true
ro.config.distinguish_hspa=false
ro.config.hw_mirror_chip_v9r1=6
As I said, I don`t know much about hacking, maybe I added some extra lines, but those lines seemed related.
I also copied the file SUPLConfigParams.xml from the above cust.img because it had some LTE, GSM parameters modified. I have added this file to the post.
I confirm that the dual-active function is working.
So , for those with more experience about this, please update the above experience and tell us if there is something we should leave out.
maybe 2 line of codes are resposible
In a post many peaple experimented to change 2 line of codes to activate 4G on sim2. They succeeded.
http://bbs.anzhi.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=9563906&fromuid=25626505
in cust\unicomelectric\cn\prop\local.prop
Code:
ro.modem.type=6260
persist.sys.dualcards=true
It did not work for me because I am on 2.3. Has to be EMUI3.0.
@mihaipi one code in your lines. Are you on 2.3 or 3.0?
@Zentachi you can try.
.
@soma, I read that chinese thread. do u understand it that both card should be able to have 3g/4g in same time or one will always be 2g? than it would be just easier way of switching 3g/4g from sim1 to sim2 and vice versa compared to flashing cust.img...
btw, I am on emui 3 and have both lines

@soma900
I tried that method with the two lines and it worked
@nrpetonr
I believe it is only to switch with sim card you want to operate on 4G
Maybe later someone will unlock 4G on both sim cards at the same time

Thanks guys, this is indeed very interesting for many users, ie. those travelling often and needing to swap the cards physically often for having 3G connectivity. I can't see why on earth the option isn't built-in in the settings, if it's possible to swap hardware-wise..
I assume root is required for editing those lines. And then simply search that file and edit those lines. Is that it?

Does it works for Honor 6 Plus LTE version too?
I need to be sure before buying the device.
This is a very essential option for people travelling abroad or people who needs to switch off one sim at times (typicallly people who use one sim for work).
I really don't understand why it's not built-in, I am let down by Huawei.

same effect. Only one sim can use 4/3G, another keep 2G. Advantage is that you can switch 2 sims via the interface. Otherwise one need to switch phone off, switch sim cards in 2 slots, turn phone on. kind of burden.

Flight mode and then switch the card then flight mode off, so no need of switching phone off completely. But still it's something you'd rather avoid, especially when the hardware is made for it and Huawei left the option out.. Cause that Sim slot cover looks like going to tear apart..

It doesn't work, 'cause Ampe A10 3G or Sanei N10 3G has a different chipset.

Hi there, can I check whether you are having the Ampe A10 dual core 3G version? If yes, I would like to know which country you are based and whether your operator checks on the IMEI?
I have a connection issue with my Sanei N10 3G (similar to Ampe A10 3G). I am able to make calls but I cannot seems to get a 3G connection. If possible, can you let me know the process that you took (step by step, cos I am a noob) and what APN parameters that you had applied.
I have been scratching my head over this problem for the past few days. Your help will be truly appreciated. Thanks

Hi!
I'm from Hungary, and I don't know whether my operator checks the IMEI or not. I don't even know my IMEI number.
I have rooted the tablet, then inserted my 3G SIM card. After the card was detected, I went into Settings, done the automatic detection of my Mobile network, then properly set the APN (you have to ask for the exact details from your telco). You have to set especially the APN, MCC (mine is 216) and MNC (mine is 30).

Sanei N10 3G did not recognise SIM Card
Dear Friends, I have a new Sanei N10 3G version, it worked well the first 3days with the built in 3g SIM, all of a sudden, it stopped recognizing the SIM Card. I have inserted several other SIM Cards but still did not work. I tried to reset to factory default and still did not work. i found two IMEI Number listed, the first shows numbers, while the other displayed just "00". I have tried all I could to reset it but cant fix it.
Please, help me, as 3G is the only option I have to connect to internet, because Wifi is not a common thing here in Nigeria.
thanks...
I also have one Ampe a10 dual 3g, and it's loosing SIM connection or whatever. I've tried any reset combination and afterall it was always the same. My tablet has guarantee which means its probably somewhere on a ship to China.
I have two of them bought at the same time and one is working well (FW is few numbers lower) and second as I mentioned (newer FW).

Hello!
I have been experiencing a similar problem with my Ampe A10 dual core...I tried to hard reset as you mentioned, pushed a needle into the slot for 10-20seconds, but it did not help!
The date and other things of the tablet got reset, but it still fails to detect the sim card!!
Is this a software issue or a hardware issue?
Had the same problem, turned out the origin was hardware.
When I opened up the tablet, the connectors of the SIM were unsoldered. I fixed it by glueing the SIM card enveloppe to the material under it.
Hope it helps

There's no option to either show or edit the number there.
AFAIK, there's not any way to edit it supplied within stock android and it would need to be a third party app.

I'm on a KK ROM so meh guess it's added in. I don't think it actually makes a difference if it shows up or not in Settings > About Phone > Status > Number, though.
It does for a few random things. In my case, I have a Femtocell (signal booster) that will only work with my number, which exchanges sim data on handshake. Without the number being correct, it won't work.
There's also reports of some mobile banking apps that call the number from the sim.
I assume your on some form of cm ROM? They have the ability to write, but stock doesn't.
I can't be arsed to flash a different ROM just to change it, loving Android L too much!

Dunno then, I guess try and look for some sort of root application for it.
And I'm on my own ROM.
All the old applications that used to do this no longer work. Maybe there is a xposed module? If not, you'll have to flash a custom ROM temporarily.

Modern phones can't write it. Some older Nokia phones can do it. Had the same issue, solved it by putting my SIM to very old Nokia phone (don't remember which) and writing it from options in Phone book.

if you have to keep(?) L installed the solution I guess would be to use another device with the appropriate setup to write number on sim...
Thanks for everyone's input. I ended up just flashing cm and changing the number, then flashed back.
Irritatingly, the reason I did this was to get my femtocell to work, and it still doesn't!

I would have been surprised if that fixed it. That number is not transmitted. Its only visible as a text field in the OS. Its not used for anything. Android uses it for "my number" and that's about it.

Step 4 of the sprint page you quote where is this found?"On the Service Program screen, tap Edit."
*#*#675#*#* doesn't show anything.
I m using airtel.
I've done everything like this described by olokos, but something must be changed for our device. Do step 1 and 2 like in the link, download the attached modified diag drivers for Xiaomi from this post. Next you enable the diag port with *#*#717717#*#* and connect your phone to the computer.
Now go on with step 11, but find MI_00 instead of MI_04 and install the driver from this post.
Do everything including step 33, then you disable diag port by dialing *#*#717717#*#* again, reboot your phone and you're done.
Now the question - many people discussed about enabling LTE on MI3, but this wasn't possible due to the Snapdragon built in this device... But in our MI4, there's a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 MSM8974AC, which supports LTE. So, how to enable it? I think some NVs must be changed using QXDM!? Anything else?
Will be awesome if we can enable the lte on mi4 device ??
I would love to see a working LTE on this device soon.

Would like to know as well. Lack of LTE in the current variant is what also held me back from purchasing.
With LTE it didn't work until now, in the post from my link there is only described unlocking GSM/WCDMA bands until now, not LTE. But it is a MSM8974, only the MI3 had an older version. This is a screenshot from QPST with connected Mi4...

hi donpinsen does WCDMA actually work after you unlock the basebands? I've followed every step in your guide, but still I could not get the 3G WCDMA work on my MI4, even though QPST shows that all WCDMA bands are unlocked. My phone is the TD-LTE version, and I am sure that my location is covered by 3G WCDMA. I think the hardware of my TD-LTE MI4 does not support WCDMA signals. any ideas?

Try clearing app cache. Go to the installed apps setting >>> Play Store and Clear Cache and run it again.
I do not own a mi4 but this method usually works with other apps that have crashed for me on other devices.
If that doesn't work, I read one solution that insist you install the GMail app, sign in. Reinstall Google play services again and then reboot the device.
bro
its not working
I did as u said.

Someone think that this guide can enable the lte on our Mi 4? http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059

I wonder if this works on the Mi4, mine is coming tomorrow...
Any Updates?
Going to try some of the NV edits on my extra 16GB Mi 4 when I get to my desktop, will report back if I can get AT&T 4G LTE bands going.
i've managed to edit nv value as described but if I search network no lte is dispayed. maybe modem is not compatible?
Try going into settings, about phone, internal memory tap five times, set preferred network to GSM/LTE. Let me know what happens.
in that menu if i try to select lte only option the phone select wcdma preferred instead while if I set LTE, gsm/wcdma option no lte are visible in network search.
update
someone knows if exists an app or anything else to check which frequencies are enabled from phone itself?
I purchased this phone on eBay for use on a non-Verizon network (Rogers). Unfortunately, it seems that since the 4.4.3 OTA, APN settings cannot be manually entered, and the network preference list does not work with my SIM card (says it's full with 0 items, exactly like this). I've done a lot of reading, and I've seen lots of people complaining about the same issue, but it seems no solution has been found. Yes, I've flashed custom ROMs like ViperOneM8. I even tried editing build.prop as shown in a very old post here but that also failed. I also even tried to open the SQLite database to edit it manually, but had no luck there either.
SO now I'm wondering if the new OTA has re-enabled this (I doubt it, but I want to ask before I re-sell the phone!).

Ota Has not landed yet. The answer when it does will be no. I can't see anything different on L than 4.4.4

OTA has landed for most carriers at this point. Edit: I'm an idiot. We're talking about Verizon.
Are you running a ROM based on the dev-base?

Hi @skittleys
I'm just as disappointed as you !
I've also tried everything, pretty much the same methods as you. I'm able to use HSPA+ on AT&T network (USA), just like before the f***** update to 4.4.4.
My problems are: no MMS, no group message, annyoing non verizon SIM icon.
For the rest everything perfect, what about you?

I have no data, no MMS. When trying data, the icons in the status bar claim I'm connected to H+, but when I actually go to a browser, I can't use the internet.

Yes.
I tried a CM11-based ROM, and it worked, presumably because CM bakes in a ton of APNs... unfortunately that ROM wouldn't recognize my SD card.
I'm debating flashing an L-based ROM, even though I'm worried about my work apps not working. However, I doubt the APN thing has been fixed...so...I feel stuck.
I really quite like this phone, but it's been such a hassle...
I have LolliGPE flashed on my M8, and it works fine - APN settings and everything. Of course S-Off (SunShine) is required, but it's required in order to get a ROM with APN settings.

Hi,
I'm at my wits end with a Verizon M8 I bought last week on Swappa and brought to Brazil expecting it to work with my carrier here (Claro). In 5 days I've gotten weird results:
First 2 days of voice but no data (with a '?' over a SIM card icon in the notification bar)
Then 1 day of voice and data signal icon flashing up/down arrows, but no actual data connection
Now 2 days of no voice and no data (with an 'X' over the SIM card icon and voice signal icon)
I've talked to VZW for 2 hours total. Their answer: the phone is unblocked.
I've been to Claro 5 times. Their answer:
There is also the possibility that all HTC One M8s are blocked by the Brazilian government communication agency (ANATEL) under some new absurd anti-piracy law, even though the One S, V, and X are approved. However, other M8 owners in Brasil claim they are able to use it here no problem, even on 4G. So I don't get what the problem with mine is.
Is there a custom ROM, Lollipop or otherwise, someone can confirm will let me at least try to configure the APN manually?

Further woes might even include the nv settings for the vzw phone not support the bands used by the carrier there.
you cannot edit them manually.. If your new carrier's APN doesn't show up in the list.. you are going to have one hell of a time making it work. Your best bet if possible is to downgrade the OS back to 4.4.2 and try that as you can edit the APNs on that OS.
OR flash CM or a rom that supports manual apn.

I got confirmation that the device is compatible with local carrier band frequency. I've chatted elsewhere with owners of VZW M8s who successfully got their devices to work on Brazilian carriers. (On 4.4.2 coincidentally)

I talked to an HTC rep today who simply advised I try a different chip. I also want to flash a rom with manual APN as you suggest. I can't easily find out which ROMs have that feature, though. So you say CM does, even the latest version of CM?

Yeah.. that's why i mentioned both CM and 4.4.2. Now I can't be certain, but I have heard that some roms like venom have expanded APN support as well. Best bet is to get that think s-off if you can and start doing some trial and error. The toughest part might be getting that thing s-off'd. Can't go any further until you got that.

I've got the phone bootloader unlocked/s-off already, so I'm ready to flash. I would just like some confirmations of roms that definitely keep the apn editing in. From the looks of it, e.g. here, CM12 does not have manual APN settings.
well i use this phone in india on a GSM network. .initially when i flashed the stock 5.0.1 FUU version mobile data wasnt working. .however i was able to add the apn maually for mobile data. .however your sim and network should get detected first as soon as you put the sim in
Anyone try adding the apn build.prop lines from gpe/cm/aosp to the build.prop of a sense rom?

Hi,
I am using Freedom Mobile in Canada and bought the Sony XPERIA 5 III 5G XQ-BQ72. This is a taiwanese dual sim.
The basic services work but the enhanced services don't. I checked before hand and knew that to be the case but having read forums I thought I might be able to get it working.
First I tried @Gigio755 advice here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/xq-at52-volte-or-wifi-calling-in-canada.4128611/
Where you dial dial *#*#4636#*#* and switch Vowifi on. But the thing is greyed out
Next I tried was @BSPI advice here
https://www.reddit.com/r/freedommobile/comments/bg5x3c
That's where you text *#243203855# then choose GLW, but I get MMI error.
I've also tried @f1v12 advice here
https://www.reddit.com/r/galaxys10/comments/dbf1lj
Where you text #272<your phone's imei number># but also get MMI error
To fix the MMI error I tried following https://www.technobezz.com/fix-connection-problem-invalid-mmi-code/
These didn't work, but specifically I couldn't try method 3, Turn on IMS over SMS because my IMS is not registered
Following @sooki99 here
https://www.reddit.com/r/freedommobile/comments/c331l5
I tried to register an apn type ims, but got an error saying Freedom does not allow adding apn type IMS.
I've contacted tech support with Freedom, they said they registered my IMEI. They also said they don't need to provision my IMEI so I'm not sure what registering they did.
So, I'm wondering what the next thing to try is. Is there a way to fix the MMI error so I can at least send dial codes?
I was thinking of flashing the US firmware next, does anyone know if that works? I know I'd loose the dual sim support (on a side note, why is that?), but does anyone know if that would help?
I have also the problem with wifi calling feature with Israeli operator. The feature on the network side activated, and they checked it with the phone number. They told me they don't need IMEI for wifi calling, and if the phone supports it, the option should appear on the phone''s menu, but it doesn't appear.
I got the phone from UK, it's dual sim model XQ-BQ52
Any ideas?
Hi @dima_vy
First thing to try would be the firmware flashing. You can do this without rooting or boot unlocking.
Get xperifirm and newflasher. There's a few customizations for XQ-BQ52 you can try without messing up your phone. I have the XQ-BQ72, and when I tried the 52 firmwares, the phone works but the modem connects and disconnects continuously so I doubt you'll find a working solution from the 72's.
But...
From a comment by @noldoli on:
Thank you ASUS for implementing VoLTE & VoWiFi for Telstra, Australia in Nov 2021 Firmware Update
Please tell us some basic information before asking for help: Model Name: Rog 5 Firmware Version: WW_18.0840.2109.188 Rooted or not: Not Frequency of Occurrence: Happily always! APP Name & APP Version (If your issue relates to the app): Phone calls In addition to information above, please also...
zentalk.asus.com
it really looks like you need:
The phone having the necessary MBN files for the mobile carrier in question
The SIM having VoLTE provisioned by the carrier in question
It really seems you need Sony to include these files on their updates, which they are unlikely to do in countries they did not release the phone. BTW, if you ask Sony they will blame the carrier.
So, I think the next thing to try is with a root, following @astracd guide for the onplus 5: https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/oneplus-5-5t-freedom-mobile-wind-wifi-calling-and-volte.880807/
You need to root, and try replacing the mbn files from the pixel 4 (assuming they have the israili customizatins). It's an older modem. but that doesn't seem to be a problem.
Rooting guide from @Miustone

Here was a Guide. Someone said people don't care about Me or My Work so...
forum.xda-developers.com
I couldn't get my superuser to work (so must not have been rooted properly), so I couldn't continue testing other mbn files. I'd love to hear if someone has success with this method though.

mbn file must be for the phone with same chipset.
Pixel 4 uses Qualcomm SM8150 Snapdragon 855 and Sony Xperia 5 III SM8350 Snapdragon 888. So pixel mbn file will not work with this phone.
OK, I see guys, thank you for advises. I don't see any Israeli versions on any other models... I will try to do more research.
PHHs AOSP GSI based ROMs will have a way to force VoLTE and WiFi Calls on any way. If You can live with AOSP, that will BE the easy way (possibly)
I read today about android 12 coming to Xperia 5 iii, may be it will fix the issue
I just checked again, and there is a global version for XQ-BQ52 with CID 23365115. Is there a way to check what firmware i have exactly installed?
Android 12 didn't fix VoWifi issue
Hi,
I've seen there's now a USA customization out. Does anyone know if that will work on Freedom in Canada?

Unlikely. Sony does not have Wi-Fi Calling on AT&T, T-Mobile, or Verizon.
They only had Wi-Fi Calling on the XZ1 Compact on T-Mobile. Literally just one phone on one network in all their history.
There is a version for global market for XQ-BQ52. May be this one will work?

Problems like this make it harder to consider future Xperia phones. I would happily buy the Xperia 1 IV but no volte means it's not worth buying

That's exactly the issue we face. I have the Xperia 1 II and flashed SEA firmware to get volte working but I don't think I will have the same success with Xperia 1 IV.
I would definitely buy the Xperia 1 IV if I know volte will work. It's an expensive phone and having no volte will make the phone useless once 3G network is shut which is imminent now

I have now Xperia 5 iii, and I'm not sure that there is any firmware that will allow me to use volte and vowifi in Israel. According to Sony, as they don't sell phones here, they won't provide firmware which will support these functions in Israel... Israeli ministry of communications allows operators to shut down 3g networks in 2025 I think. I expect this phone to work more. My previous Xperia x worked 4.5 years.
So I just hope that there will be a way to use Sony phones in the future
If the Xperia 1 IV doesn't have success I will get the Pixel 7 Pro as that is locally available which volte/ WiFi calling will work out of the box. However I prefer Xperia 1 IV but not going to pay for a phone with limited features. 3G network will start to shutdown this year for Australian network operators
