A bit false. Currently have the L04 and it has dual sim. Getting the L09 will have more bands for Europe and L04 has more bands for the US. That's the key difference. Other than that it's basically the same phone.

You are right, other people said it was singel-sim and i check the user guide of L04 and it says dual-sim, have u tested? I have L09 version.

I tested it once to see how it all worked and I can at least confirm that it works. The only downside was that I was not used picking which sim to make calls from or send messages from. Neat feature but not a necessity for me
I still don't get it, why huawei is commercializing the honor 8 as a single Sim phone when it's able to be dual Sim

Maybe cause the phone was made for millennials. Like they said in their announcements! Which means most "teens" who buy the phone will not really care about the second sim card slot cause they won't need them.
No but out of all seriousness they advertised it as one nano sim and one nano sim/ sd card. Just because it has an sd slot in the place of second sim people will probably not even acknowledge it cause well.. let's be honest, more memory is rather nice

Well I'll be damned.. Mine is the L09 and my brothers is the L04. I somehow got those mixed up but I guess that explains a lot ;P Consider all of my statements invalid! Honest mistake since they both look like the exact same phone ._.

I just picked up the FRD-L04 today, and it has a dual SIM tray - the 2nd slot doubles as a Micro SD slot, so you have to choose between two SIM cards and extra storage capacity.

It is confirmed that the L04 does NOT have dual sim, only 1 sim and sd card. Check the picture in post above! L09 and L19 have dual sim.

As far as I remember, one owner of honor 8 put two sim cards in his phone (L04), he called the number of the second slot and it did work, but it didn't show up on the phone.

Actually, that is incorrect. The second SIM card slot doubles as a Micro SD slot. From the Honor website:
SIM slot
SIM card 1(Main card): LTE FDD/ TD-LTE/ WCDMA/GSM/EGSM/DCS/PCS;
SIM card 2(Share with microSD card): GSM/EGSM/DCS/PCS
Given that I've already used dual SIM cards in the phone successfully, I'd say your information is incorrect...

As i showed u a picture from the user guide u cant have 2 sim in L04 version only if u have L09 version. So u must have the L09 version.
Can u show me a pic of your modell under Settings - About phone.

We need someone brave who can crossflash it with SrkTool Huawei, change oeminfo and custom, then flash L09 firmware. It's possible with P8 Lite and P9 Lite, but not P9 L09 singel sim vs P9 L29 dual sim. Who is brave to do it?

Not to mention where to get the second IMEI
How to enable dual sim Indian variant Honor 8 L02
Does it even support..??
tried rebranding to various regions ,no dual sim support sadly..
Technically you can get it working If you could find a way to add IMEI for other SIM card to work,which until now, is not possible. So a simple answer is- NO, YOU CANNOT.
I have seen a screenshot in which one user had 2 indian sim cards at the same time how is that possible..?
Its not possible.. Can you share the screenshot?
It's a single sim device. The sim card tray shows a cutout of two sims but the 2nd one doesn't work. You can only use one sim. That other person must have another country's model and must have rebranded his phone as an FRD-L02.

Most probably he rebranded a Chinese Honor 8
plz send me about pic of Indian dual sim
You can't use 2 Sim cards on frd-l02, it doesn't have a second IMEI
Hi Everyone,
I have a Huawei P20 EML-L09 single sim from the French operator Orange.
I would like to transform it into a dual sim working phone. I didn't find any relevant information's about that, except that i will need to rebrand it.. And now i'm stuck.
Does anyone already do this ?
it seem's that i have to rebrand it into an EML-L29, but I dont know how, where to find tools and images, and also if it will brick the phone or not. Also i'm lost with country codes, mine is C109 .
Many thanks !

You can change your model to EML-L29 (dual SIM) but you will not be able to use the dual SIM because of the hardware.

Hello, are you sure ? Because some post says that it works (it's seem's to be the same hardware).
Do you have a procedure for me ?
You are joking.
Hardware is not the same, on single sim version there is only one sim port. You can check it by taking off the sim tray and looking inside the sim port. You will see only contacts for SD card and for one SIM.
If some post says that it work, pelase go ask author of that post.

Seriously?
this is impossible. Hardware is the same base but totally differrent setup. You can rebrand but that will do nothing but change your model description to another region/model.
Not offending but this is the dumbest question i ever read on xda
The hardware supports dual SIM. You need to buy the dual SIM tray though.
Also, I have rebranded and then changed over to dual SIM using funky Huawei. I was left with a fully functional dual SIM and broken speaker sound volume. It was stuck at 20% and no matter how many resets I did could not get it fixed.
You also loose bootloader unlock using Funky Huawei. I luckily had my phone replaced under warranty...

Are you sure for SD ? i thinked that there was no SD slot on any version of P20. only on p20 lite no ?
Hello,
I'm getting my Chinese Mi 10 Pro in 3 days. It has Global ROM pre-installed but I think it's probably better to flash the EU rom.
Does anyone know if the dual sim work with EU rom?
Thanks!

Mi 10 Pro works fine with Xiaomi.eu ROM and dual SIM works perfectly
Yes , with EU rom dual sim worked. I Have MI 10Pro from China and I tried all of roms. EU rom based on China firmware.
I just got the global version, with single SIM. It really has a single sim tray which does not allow for a second SIM.
What I'm asking myself is: when I buy a dual sim tray and install xiaomi.eu firmware after unlock, am I then able to use the phone with dual SIM?

that's what people have been saying. dual sim works on xiaomi.eu rom if you replace the sim tray with dual.
Flashed Xaomi.eu rom Miui12 20.5.24 beta
and now I can see(software vise) both sim slots and different imei.
Just waiting double sim tray to arrive
