4G in the second sim slot - Oppo R7 Plus

Hi everyone,
I've got R7plusf with CM-13.0-20160407-NIGHTLY. I have two nano-sims. The second slot is obviously not supporting 4G, I can clearly see it on the speed-test and also on the screen - there is only 'E' showing for the second slot, while there is H+ for the first slot. I've double-checked the settings - LTE is preferred for both slots. Does anyone have the same problem? Does anyone know how to enable 4G for the second slot?

Second slot only supports 2G no 4G

Is it so? Here it is said otherwise.
On the official Oppo site it is said "4G Dual Sim" - that makes me think that both slots are supposed to support 4G.

Sorry to clear it up you can not use both sims as 4G. If you use sim 1 as 4G sim 2 goes to 2G and the same with sim 2 as 4G sim1 goes to 2G.

Wooohoooo!! Now that works for me - thanks a lot!
The problem was I could not set up the second slot to use 4G before I specifically set the first one to use 2G.
I though once you've chosen the sim to use cellular data it has the priority, but that was not the case.
Anyway I am happy to have it solved now - thanks again, 2007jchill !!

Dual-SIM clarification

So how does dual-SIM work on this phone? Are both SIMs in stand-by? Can I use both for LTE at the same time? Or only on SIM for 4G and the other one for 2G - if so: can I choose independently which SIM should work with 4G at the moment, or is it fixed like Slot 1 = 4G / Slot 2 = 2G?
I'm thinking over getting this phone - coming from a Lenovo Vibe Z (Dual-SIM) and it sucks, that Slot 2 is always 2G
Both lines in stand by, you have the option to choose which line will provide the Internet.. But only one at a time... Hope this help you...

From what I've seen on several website (including: eprice.com.hk / gsmarena.com...) it seems like most people are saying only sim 1 is LTE capable...
So which one is it?
Both SIMS 4G or only SIM1 4G?
Are there maybe different models?

Got my Z3 Dual (D6633) last saturday and both sim can do 4g, but only one at a time. U choose which sim does data. Both are always on for calls and sms unless u deliberatly turn the sim off in the settings menu.
I'm looking to buy this but wanted to know if SIM 1 is running LTE can SIM 2 run in 3G but voice/text only? Both my SIMs are with Bell Mobility in Canada and they don't have a 2G network. Thanks for the help.

Xperia XZ (F8332 model) dual SIM configuration

I have a question about dual sim model. Do both sim card can work simultaneously eg. 3G like eg Xiaomi 5?
Most of dual models work with mode (2,3,4)G/2G or 2G/(2,3,4)G only.
Regards
One SIM must be in 2G. The other can be 2G/3G/4G.

Is that 2g , so no data phone only or just gprs?
I meant 2G as in phone or SMS only.

Any idea why is this limitation? I was trying to see it to LTE mainly to put that in VoLTE for calls and then realised either of the SIM only can be set to LTE.
On the XZ, I have sim1 on 4g and sim2 on 3g.

I've asked the same question to a Xperia rep. when I've purchased XZ dual in Hong Kong.
Both slots are 4G speeds, but if both slots are in use; highest speed of one slot is 4G and other limited to 3G max
They don't have 4G/4G support yet...
Hope this helps.
Well I was going to start a new thread, but this seems like the correct place to ask:
So if I have one sim dedicated to calls/text and a second sim just for data, the phone should operate the same as if I had only one sim which can do both phone and data?
Also if both sims are capable of handling calls, can i deactivate the phone of one sim card but keep the data active?

Enabling LTE Network Mode on Dual Sim Android Phone - India

Hello,
Recently I had to use two Jio SIM (VoLTE) on my Samsung ON5 which says it is a dual 4G LTE phone. But I couldn't set LTE network mode on my two Jio sims' on the same time. If SIM-1 is LTE, the SIM-2 by default goes to 2G which makes SIM-2 as inactive ( Emergency Calls Only ). Can anyone enlighten me on this? Are there any Android phones available now in the market which enables dual LTE at the same time?
I assume my question is clear.
Thank You ,
Arus Chandran
I think this is normal, at the moment all smartphones you can use only 1 SIM LTE.

Second SIM - only 3G ?

I have an European model U11 Plus, Dual-SIM, 6GB, 128 GB, and just goat a second SIM card.
I see in the settings that the secons SIM can only be configured as 3G, no 4G option.
Is this true or am I missing a setting ? Was expecting both SIMs to be 4G.

you can not run both SIMs in 4G mode.
When you have two nano SIM cards inserted on your phone, only one card can connect to the faster 4G LTE network. The other card will connect to the 3G/2G network.

Indeed, what is already an improvement over the older phones who where 'stuck' on 2G only even when only the second SIM was activated (and so the first SIM disabled).
For the U11+ if you disable the first SIM automatically the second SIM will be able to work even with 4G+.
But it shouldn't matter since if two SIMs activated you can run the data over the other SIM. Unless you want to try VoLTE for your second SIM phone number.?

They work on both lines, only you can not have both lines activated in 4G or LTE, you have to make the manual change of the line you want to use 4G or LTE.
