Dual sim Android phone - General Topics

Hi,
I need some dual sim android phone for order taking service that can receive calls on both sims even one is on call.
Previously i was using honor 8 & it had this feature to receive calls on both sims simultaneously.
I don't use Volt or 4G much so my basic concern is that i can receive calls on both sim all the times without missing any.
I did some google but couldn't find proper listing of phone having this feature.
Although Honor 8 wasn't listed as dual active but still it had my desired feature & i want to buy similar phone again.
Please share your experience if you know some models capable of this calling feature.
Regards

I would be curious to hear how you guys are using this. I am carrying 2 phones, one work and one personal. Exchange on work phone. It would be nice to just carry one phone and maybe use GV for work messages.

I think the only option you have for both active is something like the Gmate or Socblue devices i've read about. They sell them on the same website but i've not used one myself

yeah S4 Chinese version is dual sim, perfect choice for 2 sim active
Absolutely, get the i9502, FTW!!!
this looks crazy awesome
Why would you go through the trouble of posting this video and asking for subscriptions when you do nothing to explain this is depth? Is the software on the phone already set up for this? How does the messaging app handle it? Is there any setup required?
do your phone have to be rooted or not to use it
I have this, 2 sim active, the only problem is it will only support GSM, data is usable, but you need to root or jailbreak for data, gmate promised a 3G version, but this was over a year ago.
[/QUOTE]
Also if people are after a dual sim adapter, instead of paying the high price for the magicsim, go to ebay and get a iphone 4 or iphone 5 version for about 5-7USD, these will also work for android phone, I'm using one right now, no root is needed and supports data.
details on using it, when the dual sim adapter is connected, a icon will show up in the menu, this menu allows you to switch sim.
This is on my note 2, but all android will work.

I pass this on to friend that need this exactly. No fast data just 2 line's on one phone.

But the question is, could you use both phones at the same time with the dual sim adapter. How it works? How the phone discriminates both?

did you have to trim your sim card to fit the cards. does one card with adapter go in reg slaot and the other into extension or do both go into extension. will the extra stuff with sim inserted into sim slot damage sim slot on phone. looking at this and triple sim adapter for s4 and n3
For the adapter the main sim is the microsim that goes into the phone with one end of the adapter which goes under the microsim, the other end supports a full size sim, I actually have the ipnone 5 version so the size is slightly smaller, you should get the iphone 4 version, the fit into the sim slot on the phone will fit without any problem, as most sim sockets are made slightly thicker, about 0.1-2mm, as sim cards vary in thickness due to manufacture process.
As long as you have one microsim and one full size sim, you are ok, you do not need to alter it in anyway, if you do have different size sims like me, as shown in the photo's you can use sim adapters, data will work with either sim.
The photo's show some close shots of the adapter, even with the adapter in the slot, it is slightly loose, so I have used double sided tape as shown in the photo.

WhatsApp on Dual-SIM mobile

I was using single sim mobile earlier and using whatspp with that no and data plan of that network. Now I have swithed to dual sim mobile. I want to use data plan of new sim and want to continue whatsapp with old no. But I am not able to do so. Kindly help.
Hi, i dont know which phone you are using but if you already have configurated the device which sim should be active for the data plan, then it is the only matter of which phone number you tell whatsapp at the first time after the new installation.
Whatsapp only checks one time if the phone number belongs to the rightful owner and even that you dont need a dual sim phone, because you can receive the code registration sms on the one phone and insert it on the other one manually.

insert the what;s app sim card in your phone first. and run application to make sure it works fine.
then power off and insert the other data plan sim card. that should be ok:silly:

[Q] Pre-purchase questions

Just a few quick questions if I may,
1) I am looking to use this phone (6+) to dual sim, 1 for internet access and the other for calls and texts. Is this phone capable of using both sims at the same time or is it one that uses 1 at a time, even though 2 is inserted
2) I can't find stock (Readily available) anywhere except Three UK, but they don't list it as dual sim, is this phone dual sim or did they release a single sim variant?
Thanks in advance
honor 6plus

Dual SIM Dual Active?

My dad is thinking about getting this phone, because he heard it's a Dual SIM Dual Active, like his HTC One M7. That is, the phone can handle calls on both SIMs at once, instead of deactivating one while the other is on a phone call, or call forwarding. Can the Mate 8 do this?
No, Mate 8 is not dual active. It's only dual standby.

Ah, dammit. That's too bad. Thanks for the quick answer.
I don't suppose you know any good DSDA phones with somewhat comparable specs?

Yeah, I knew about the Zenfone 2, but I was hoping there would be something better out there...
P.S. The Zenfone 2 has a 1080p screen, according to GSMArena.

That's is wrong, mate 8 is Dual Sim Full Active.
I am owning HUAWEI NXT-L29 so I can confirm the functionality.

So if you get a call on the second SIM while already on a call on the first one, you can switch between them?

ΝΟ My friend Mate 8 is dual sim FULL ACTIVE...that means that i can call from sim1 (wind) my sim2(vodafone) and im recieving the call....That works with all L29 versions from B103 to B180...and i think with all the rest of roms chinise or not....
Folks I was looking for a Dual SIM Dual Active phone for a long time and I am happy I stumbled on this site. Can you please let me know where (which country and which site / place) should I buy this phone so that I am sure that I will be getting a Dual active model of Mate 8 Model NXT-L29
Thanks in advance.
I have the L29 Mate 8. I just set it up with a second sim and I can not for the the life of me get the second sim to be recognized. It's not a sim issue as I can go into the dual card management and switch the default sim from slot 1 to 2 manually and the Sim selection will change and that sim is fully functional, including data, but the other sim gives me an network error? Then I manually change back and then slot 1 will be default and will be fully functional and the other sim gives me a network error? What am I missing?
Could it be that the two networks I am using do not have 2G available, that is the issue? Wouldn't I only need the 2G for data to work but should work for calls and text?
Is the Mate 8 still the best phone around that supports active sims?
Bump. I am also looking to get a Dual Sim Dual Active phone and wondering the same thing.
Mate 8 DSDA
Kindly be informed that these devices: mate 8, p9 plus, P9, MATE7,P8 supports dual active option and no doubt about it, plus Honor 8 (frd-L09 and FRD-L19) also supports Dual active option.
Best regards,
Huawei Support Team
Huawei lists the phone as dual standby. I called their tech support and they confirmed it is standby, not active.

Galaxy A9 Pro (A9100) Dual Sim Function is Flop

Hi guys Im from the Philippines. Bought a China-released and rooted Samsung A9 Pro recently. I drcided to get it because it is dual sim (even is the second sim slot is a hybrid one), dual LTE and its huge battery at 5000mAh. I unfortunately did not try the messaging function. I noticed that every time someone sends me an SMS i get 2 same messages (1 for each sims). Also, i get super delayed to no messages at all on the second sim. I notices this specially if i need to get an OTP from bank providers. Need help how to make the second sim function while having it work here in Manila. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
del
Same thing here. Two messages of every single message. Very annoying.
Mines fine. No double sms.
