HI,
I just got A8 dual sim phone. Is there any way to get rid of that
anoying small icons with number 1 that represents the sim card in slot number one?
I know i can change the icon but im not interested in that
What would happen if i flash a firmware for single sim model?
Would it disable other card slot?
Thanks,

Hi there
I have got a MDA Vario, and have got my personel T-Mobile sim card in there, the MDA is unlocked and I want to be able to use my work sim card jointly with this
I have seen dual sim card holders, but I would like to know
1) Are they any good?
2) Do they work?
3) What features do you loose
4) Can you make and recieve calls on both sim cards
Thanks

Dual SIM
I have not used dual sim on PDA - however my previous experience with dual sim is the following:
- Have to turn off device to change between the 2 SIM cards.
So with the PDA I presume a simple GRPS off and on would be sufficient.
- Cannot use BOTH SIM at once - have to choose one at a time.
Only good thing about dual sim is that you don't have to remove the battery - other than that I don't see the big benefits to be honest.
Hope the above helps - let us know how you get on with finding one suitable for your PDA and your findings.
Thanks

Hi, I recently bought S8+ in Scandinavia/EU and looking at the sim tray, there is a spot for 1 sim and 1 SD card. Is there any way to get 2 sim cards working instead of 1 sim 1 SD?
Thank you in advance

Can do it, and I am now the S8 plus is also the normal use of 2 sim + 1SD.

You mean that you don't know if you have a dual sim s8+ or a single sim? It must be written in the back as "Duos"...
I know that this (2 sim & micro SD card) happens in all Duos (Dual sim device)
But I don't think that you can do a single sim version to dual sim
To clarify, the question popped up as I saw some people on YouTube surgically detaching the sim and glueing it to their sd cards in order to get the 2nd sim working. But I assume if there is no actual reader to read the 2nd sim, that operation won't be successful. Thing is, I do not know if there is a reader or not on an European version of s8+?
It's quite impossible since the device must have two imei numbers.

Remove the sim chip from the telecommunications company and stick it behind the SD Card. Look at my photo. Then sim + SD card into the sim2 card slot. This sim2 card slot there sim with sd.
Dual sim on G955F?
Even though not marked on box, is it possible?

The answer is a simple no. Those videos show a dual sim s8 being modded so they can use the dual sim AND an sd card instead of OR.

No. Must have 2 IMEI's for that to work. There is no way to make a single sim phone a dual sim one.
Hi all
This maybe a silly question, but I've looked for ages on here and didn't find an answer
Has anyone tried a dual SIM tray in a single SIM model to see if it does indeed have dual SIM support?
Thanks

Problem being a single sim phone will only have 1 imei#
Sent from my God Mode 8
Valid point, but still doesn't answer my question, if anyone has tried dual SIM tray, does it then activate and support dual SIM on single SIM phone, which in turn may activate second imei#

I'm wondering the same question. I have read of folks cloning their IMEI to do a dual SIM hack, however, I don't know of the success/viability.
I'm wondering if the 955F has dual SIM hardware....
Hi,
is it possible to operate 3 SIM cards and a microSD card with the Note Ultra 5G?
With the S7 Edge it was possible to operate 2 SIM cards and a microSD card by sticking the SIM board on the memory card. Has anyone tested this before? Or does Android automatically lock the memory card and the SIM card that has been stuck on?
I mean 2 physical SIM cards and one esim and a microSD-card.
Similar to the Galaxy S7 back then: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_lQdg8yAwM
Or does android have programming that excludes the simultaneous use of three SIM cards and a microSD card?
Nobody?
Does it work?
really none?
I believe Samsung has blocked this from working on all their devices.
thanks for answering. I can´t find any infos about it. Is there a tread about it?

No. But I do know that with recent firmware update releases, Samsung has blocked those microSD card with a SIM adapter from working on their devices.
Merci!
Hey.
I only found out about this "second physical SIM card reader is disabled" issue after I bought my S21+ here in Australia. Even after swapping the single SIM tray to a dual SIM tray it wouldn't work.. which was then explained over here at GSMarena.
I was getting my hopes up that with a dual SIM card tray and flashing the right ROM, I would be able to use both my physical SIM cards but I seem unable to find the one that would help to achieve this.
Has anyone else come across this and was successful in enabling that second reader?
P.S. I'd prefer to use a European ROM in the end but I'm at the point where if I can't enable via flash, I will return and hope to find a S21+ somewhere else that comes with dual physical enabled ootb.
P.P.S. Currently on G996BXXU3BUKG, XSA

Hi there, have you ever figured out a way to use the second SIM slot? I am facing the same issue with a US S22. I can see the physical SIM card connections under a microscope and bought a dual sim tray but no second SIM shows up under "SIM card manager"

Howdy.
I wasn't able to get the second one working, not with with the dual sim tray and any ROM.
For me, it ended up with a return and getting one from Europe where the dualSIM came ootb and worked right away.
Sorry, no revelations from me.
Best of luck
Thank you for your response. I am sorry it didn't work for you in the end.
It really is a shame, in my opinion, for Samsung to put up those restrictions on the device, especially if it already ships with the hardware in it.
