Just updated to Android 10 ROM - G970FXXU3BKSO on my international (SM-G970F/DS) Galaxy S10e.
Now, if I set the SIM card to use for "Mobile data" (with one SIM card turned off, and the option of either the active SIM (AT&T) or "off"), when I set the "mobile data" the the SIM card that is turned on, I get a toast mesage that (to the effect of) "AT&T will be used for mobile data", but, when the toast disappears, the Mobile Data setting is either "off" or just not present at all (that is, under "Mobile Data" there is nothing -- blank). If I use the "quick settings", it shows mobile data is on, but it isn't. If I toggle the quick settings to off, then on, it comes back on.
By itself, this isn't such a big deal, but, apparently randomly, mobile data simply gets turned off.
Help???
One UI 2 (Android 10 - "BSKO" rom) SIM card manager bug? - SOLVED
SOLVED: This was a bear to find.
TLDR: This was NOT a bug in the SIM card manager. It was a problem with the Google Fi app.
Google FI app was messing with SIM card control. Delete the app, and all is fine.
Long version:
Android 10 update for Samsung SM-G970F/DS (Dual SIM, Exnos, international version) seemed to break the SIM card manager for the dual SIM configuration.
Randomly, it would set Mobile Data to off, but not gracefully or correctly. Randomly, it would change the mobile data to use the alternate SIM card.
I have a Google FI SIM in slot 1, and an AT&T SIM card in slot 2.
Apparently, the Google FI app *thinks* it knows more than it does about the Samsung dual sim phones, and thinks it wants to switch SIM cards. It would disable mobile data, but not set the "mobile data" flag to "off". So, the mobile data looks like it is on, but, when bringing up the SIM card manager from settings/Connections/SIM card manager, the "Mobile data" was blank (which should never happen), instead of "Off"
Deleting the Google Fi application makes everything fine.
Google Fi app version: December 11, 2019 version. (V22-arm64-v8a-xxhdpi (282453276)

I would like to use my old At&t Galaxy S3 phone like a tablet, though keep my old deactivated sim card in it. Of course with that comes the same popup message after every reboot. Does anyone know how I can disable the popup message "Sim not provisioned mm#2"? The phone is rooted.
Do I need to edit the build.prop like you would with the "No Sim card in the phone" message?

Did you ever find the fix for this? I also want to do the exact same thing.
I found this fix, that seems to work:
1. Turn on airplane mode. (Settings > More > Airplane mode to turn of cellular connection)
2. Then turn wifi, Bluetooth etc back on.
Thanks
My phone is the HTC One M9 with Android 7.0 but ever since I switched to a Virgin Mobile sim card I get the following reoccurring message:
SIM Card Inserted
Tap to complete setup.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After tapping on that message the "Select your carrier" screen appears but no carriers are listed. Once I back out of that screen the “SIM Card Inserted” alert disappears for a while before coming back again.
If I put in my O2 sim card then the “SIM Card Inserted” appears but the “Select your carrier” screen contains options e.g. O2 Pay as you Go which I select and the SIM Card Inserted disappears and doesn’t appear again.
One thing that might be related is that I don't get any service while in my flat so that could be triggering the "SIM Card Inserted" message. Even if I go into the "Select your carrier" screen with a full signal no carriers appear. In the meantime I can confirm that my phone recognises that I am using Virgin:
Settings > About > Network > Operator name > Virgin
Does anyone know what might be triggering this message and how to stop it?
I'm on Sprint and was never able to make or receive calls regardless of Network settings in the easily accessible options menu after flashing the P Preview.
The following fixed my issue. You can access this menu without downloading an app but I forget how so it's easier to just download the free app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xsquarestudio.forcelte
I had my network mode set to LTE/CDMA when first using this app, and somewhere in the middle I changed it to CDMA but I'm not sure how much that impacted the actual fix.
These were my steps. I'm not responsible for any damage this may cause to your device as I'm not sure if messing with these settings is foolproof or not.
First, opened previously linked app "Force LTE" then under "Set Preferred Network Type" I changed to CDMA only. Enabled/disabled airplane mode. This seemed to do nothing as LTE was still showing in statusbar.
I then chose CDMA auto (PRL), airplane mode on/off, didn't seem to do much either. LTE still showed in statusbar and couldn't make calls. Also "Voice Network Type" showed "Emergency Calls only" inside the app.
I then chose the 3 dot menu and chose "select radio band". I changed that to United States, without resolving problem. Then selected "Cellular 800" and this may have solved the problem, but I continued on and selected PCS, fiddled with some settings in Phones settings menu. Was finally able to receive calls and my signal indicator showed 3G. In app Voice Network Type was listed as 1xRtt. I decided to select radio band once more and chose Class 10.
Calls were still functioning fine. So I went into Main settings menu and changed mobile network from CDMA to LTE/CDMA. LTE kicked in and calls still work!
Again, these settings may only work for Sprint hence the PCS Network option, and I believe Sprint may utilize the 800mhz frequency. The app might show you different options depending on your carrier. I don't know.
Anyway, fully functioning! Woohoo!!
Android P cannot make calls
I found an easier way
1. Remove your sim card from your phone, and turn off phone
2. Insert a different Sim from anywhere and restart the phone.
3. Try using the phone to make calls
4. Turn off the phone and remove the Sim card
5. Insert the main sim card( your original Sim card) and restart your phone
6. After start allow the phone to automatically reconfigure your network
This method worked for me. Hope it helps someone out there

I have a peculiar issue with my Dual Sim Samsung A51 running Android 10. The phone status is official.
Usually about once per day (sometimes twice), the mobile data connection will switch off by itself, but its not going to off in the traditional / expected way which is the Mobile Data selector switch in Settings > Data Usage.
For some reason, the Data SIM selected in the Sim Card Manager will be lost (there are usually three options: Sim 1, Sim 2 and off): but peculiarly, none of them are selected (see screenshot 1).
Choosing SIM 2 will return the option to Off even though I get a pop-up alert saying SIM 2 will be used for data (screenshot 2) and then selecting SIM 2 for the second time, the setting will take and will activate the data connection (screenshot 3).
I have been using until very recently a Samsung A50, dual sim running Android 9 with the same setup, SIMs, carriers etc and never had an issue. Neither the Calls or SMS settings in the SIM Card Manager get affected.
What I am experiencing feels like a bug in the A51 / Android 10.
I googled around and the people complaining about losing data connections on their phones like I am were doing so back when they had Samsung Galaxy S4 - so quite a while ago.
Anyone have any ideas how to prevent this behavior? Or experienced anything similar?
My Tab P11 Plus has been updated to Android 12 recently. The SIM card is detected and shows the mobile provider name on the Wi-Fi and network settings page, but when you tap on it to open the detailed SIM card settings page, nothing happens. I tried a different SIM card and it works ok, the only difference is that the other SIM card doesn't support VoLTE while my original one (that no longer works) supports it. I also tried to remove the PIN from the SIM card and reset all the network settings.
The SIM card works ok in other devices.
Is there anything I can do via the adb, to delete all the SIM card related data? I don't want to do a complete reset, as it takes almost a week to setup evetyhing from the scratch again. Thank you.
