single / dual SIM - HTC U12+ Questions & Answers

Hello everyone. I bought some times ago HTC U12+ and I was convinced that is DUAL SIM. But it isn't. Slot on the left side is for one SIM and SD or 2nd SIM card.
I called to HTC support and I give IMEI for check and answer was "this model is without Dual SIM"
So I have a question. It is possible upgrade firmware (ROM) from phone with DS? It will work? I think but i'm not sure, that phisicaly dual sim slot is, so different is only firmware.
Regards
Chris

Kshychu:
You are only able to update your HTC U12+ with the firmware that it was designed for.
What lead you to believe that it was a Dual SIM model? Do you know what variant you have? The variants all have different MID (Model ID) numbers:
htc_imedugl: 2Q5510000, EMEA/Aisa TW/RUS/SEA India Dual-SIM
htc_imedtwl: 2Q5530000, CHINA, Dual-SIM
htc_imeuhl: 2Q5520000, EMEA/US Unlocked, Single-SIM
Mine, for example is htc_imedugl: 2Q5510000, EMEA/Aisa TW/RUS/SEA India Dual-SIM.
Where did you buy it? Was it a US Unlocked model, or from another country? To my knowledge, the only Single SIM variant is htc_imeuhl: 2Q5520000, EMEA/US Unlocked, Single-SIM.
I also do not believe that the Dual SIM models only work because of different Firmware. There is also Hardware that is at play.
I will say that if you try to run any of the RUU's that do match your phone, the software will fail and give you the proper error code.

[Q] Should I buy the dual sim version?

Hey guys,
Should I buying the dual sim version Moto G?
Because there is'nt / not yet any single sim version Moto G here,
I'm considering this:
1) I heard that CM doesn't/not yet support the dual sim smartphone, is that true?
2) Can I use the single sim custom rom on the dual sim version? (It's okay for me even if the custom rom works with only 1 sim card)
3) If I can't install the single sim version custom rom on the dual sim version right now, is there any possibilities that the single sim custom rom will work on the dual sim version someday?
Because I think it's meaningless if I use an android phone, but I can't change anything on it
Any help will be much appreciated,
Thanks

you should buy the dual sim version without worries coz:
1) CM supports the dual sim version fully!
2) most of the single sim custom roms run on the dual sim version. you just have to flash the US stock firmware.
3) you can root it and get xposed to get most of the features custom roms provide and also remove the unwanted apps with root uninstaller if you decide to stay with stock rom.(there is not much bloatware anyway, pretty much stock kitkat)
also we are not talking about any android phone here, its the only phone under $200 with kitkat..
edit: i just realised that this is a very old thread! so u might have already made a decision and cm was not supported at that time...

The roms that do not work use the US or european or brazilian radio.. so if u wanna install those roms u will have to install the respective country's rom and radio...

Well carriers branded phones are locked to their original carrier. I guess you can sim-unlock it the usual way (using a sim-unlock code purchased from a reliable website of your choice e.g doctorsim.com).
And btw since your thread is a question, you should have posted this in the Q&A section
Oops, didnt read correctly
Call sprint customer service, ask to be transfered to 'international' , then ask the person to unlock your A9. Its that simple! I have a telcel sim in my sprint A9 right now!

Sprint unlocked s8+ phone issue - not working internationally

Hi,
I purchased a sprint locked phone in USA and got it unlocked.
The phone is working with sim of another domestic carriers (USA) but not working with international sim card (India).
Can you please give me any directions on what to do?
Samsung is asking me to contact sprint and sprint says that they have unlocked it domestically and internationally as well and not able to provide any other support.
Thanks

Is it asking for a code on inserting Indian SIM? if so, it's not unlocked.. check ebay remote unlock method for abt 7-10usd.
If it's not asking for a code, Try to toggle aeroplane mode and see.
Or try flashing U1 firmware (unlocked model version)
it is not asking for any unlock code while entering Indian SIM card.
however, there is no signal if I insert indian SIM (tried Airtel and Jio so far). These sim are working in other cellphones.

Can oneplus 8 verizon version be converted to dual sim using dual sim jacket. A friend got his fine but he has the t mobile version. So you think it can be done with the Verizon one?
Thanks!
NO. Because OP8 Verizon has different Modem. You cannot Convert it to dual sim.
