[HELP] Samsung Galaxy s8 Sim 1 not allowed - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys,
I am facing a very seiours trouble on my Galaxy s8 device. Alright I am living in Pakistan and I have this device for more than 2 years.
Its bought from Uae and I have paid all the taxes and PTA approved as well. I had this error last year from MM phone service saying "SIM1 not allowed".I got it fixed by paying 3k pkr approx 15USD to tech guy. He told me that there was something wrong with sim card servies. But now after a year of use I am facing same problem and I cant find the guy who fixed it. Please take a look and guide me how to fix this error. Screenhots posted below.

[question][at&t]

I would like to says thanks to clubtech for link to purchase unbranded 3G tab 7.0 plus. Also thanks to xda for our own section here.
Just got my tracking number, I super excited, but I know to be cautious with AT&T data. Has anyone tried popping their AT&T SIM into one of these. I currently have grandfathered unlimited smartphone ( not iphone ) data. Currently I have a Dell Streak 7 4G, and I havent gotten any notices/ had any problems. So Im -hoping- I can just pop in my AT&T SIM with voice and smartphone unlimited and I'll be good to go as this model Im expecting is unlocked. I would be uber stoked!
Anyone have any suggestions to be stealthy and avoid getting bagged?
anyone tried a similar setup in USA with this device?
.... just want to be "safe" as possible. Thank You guys, Im sure I wil be very active in the forums when my device gets running.

sure, here: http://www.ipmart.com/main/product/Samsung,P6200,Galaxy,Tab,7,0,Plus,333168.php?prod=333168
enjoy.
Im hoping I'll go undetected by AT&T as there are still some 1st gen gtab users with voice and unlimited smartphone data , correct??
Thanks, coincidentally it's the same company I had found a couple of days ago. I even contacted them ( and they promptly replied to my questions ) asking a couple of questions.
Did u receive your tab yet ? What shipping method did U use ? Did you have any problem with custom , clearing it ? Did you have to pay any custom duty ? This was my bigger concern since the item is coming from Malaysia. In the past I've bought several things from China, Hong Kong and never had a custom problem. But never bought anything from Malaysia. This is copy of their correspondence :

As for AT&T, I do not live in the USA but I am there often. And I've always used a GoPhone SIM card. I even use it in the old Galaxy Tab 7 , that I bought from AT&T and promptly flashed with an European Rom, and unlocked , so I could use it as a phone. I buy Pay as you go data packages.
P_
edit : I noticed that you just got your tracking number, so I guess you have not received the tab yet.
When u get it, could u pls test if it will work on tmobile? The frequencys listed on the ipmart site doesn't seem like it supports there frequency =\ thx.

got mine.. used FedEx and it was here in 3 days.. No customs issues at all.
It will not work now t-mobile because the frequencies are not compatible. I am using mine on at&t and it works well as my area has 1900mhz coverage.
Fyi they are shipping the white model, not the black model as shown not their website.

3 days.. you lucky son of a gun.. j/k . I was thinking they might ship white, oh well I got a black carbon fiber skin that should take of that , so voice and data are working good on AT&T. I neeeeed this thing, groove ip and sipdroid on my dell streak 7 are flaky. what kind of download speeds you got clubtech? Im in hartford CT and in good areas, im getting 7-nearly 8 mpbs down on dell streak 7, normally around 4 or so.
mine just completed through customs whew had me nervous for a while.. im using DHL.
Hmmm, I'd love to get a white model. Thanks for the feedback, I'll order mine shortly. As you can see from the Ip mart reply they claim that they do not have the white model ........... I guess the guy answering the messages does not really know :

I can simply insert my ATT iphone sim into the sim card slot and use this tablet like my phone? If thats true then Im definitely going to order this. Anyone have any issues ordering from iPmart?

They are probably not aware of the color as it is being sent from a 3rd party. I definitely got the white version.. I wanted the black one but the white one will do as well.

Took a chance and placed my order. I hope mine gets here with no problems.

From another post they said maybe looking mid Dec. Who knows though. Verizon is last on everything! I've thought about jumping ship to sprint and getting unlimited there for 60per month but I hear bad things about the CS there. One verizon rep told me the other day that they were improving the battery for the edge to compete with the droids battery life. He said if that's true he was waiting to get the edge. Hopefully just a couple more weeks cause I've been waiting on this phone for about 2 years now. Samsung is supposed to be releasing a bendable display for 2015 http://www.phonearena.com/news/Sams...eils-5.7-unbreakable-bendable-display_id48046
Dammit. I have the 4 already, but will get the Edge. Hurry up Verizon...........
With all the phones sold over bkack friday weekend and a 14 day return policy I doubt we will see it before mid to late December as already stated.
Just an educated assumption.

Replace G930F motherboard with G930FD

Hello everyone
A few days ago my S7 died ( the CPU died )
I have the opportunity to buy a G930FD motherboard from a phone with a cracked display
My question is that if the G930FD motherboard will be hardware compatible ( internal connectors ) with my display and everything else ?
Will the G930FD motherboard perfectly replace my dead G930F motherboard ?
Thx everyone in advance.
Hello
Hello someone
Nobody can give you a definitive answer because chances are nobody have tried this before.
However, considering the fact that all G930F ROMs work perfectly on G930FD (including stock ROMs) then yes, it should work.
Again, don't take this answer for granted, as there's always a chance that this may not work.

Hi
Most likely motherboards are the same , the firmware is the same , the difference is on the sim tray , actually there are (hardware) mods where you "stick" a second SIM in the back of the sd card

http://www.noreplied.com/how-to-ins...d-and-microsd-card-in-samsung-galaxy-s7-edge/
So i would guess motherboard are the same
Hello, would like to know how it went, my motherboard is having issues and it's a single sim g930F, would like to know if I can replace it with a g930FD.. any updates?
It was a fake model so a didn't buyed.
Instead i have a brand new motherboard single sim
I am going to attempt putting a G930P motherboard into a G930X demo unit
Hi all,
I am going to attempt to replace the motherboard in a Galaxy S7 G930X (demo model without cellular radios), with a motherboard from a G930P (sprint model) that has a broken screen and LCD, but boots and has a clean IMEI number.
I have searched the entire xda forum to see if anyone else has done a cross-swap like this, but have found no answers except one failed attempt back in January 2017, and the guy was going to try again with a different motherboard -- but didn't update the thread to let us know how it worked out. These actually were on the Galaxy S7 Edge sub-forum -- but I understand the internal hardware is about the same and share many parts (but probably not the MBs).
I'd really like to hear from others if they have had any issues doing motherboard swaps between carriers on the S7s.
Thanks in advance,
Philip
P.S. I will update this and the January 2017 S7 Edge thread with my results once I get the phones in hand and the replacement glass battery cover that I ordered from China. So be patient -- it may take a while for it all to get here....
BTW, here's a link to the January 2017 S7 Edge thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/disc-changing-motherboards-models-t3542919

Well, my first attempt didn't work out the way I had hoped.
Rather than post the results on multiple threads, here's a link to a new thread I started that documents the whole saga: starting with the reason I attempted this, the research done, the models purchased, the actual results from the attempt that documents what is different between the LDUs and their fully functional counterparts and the difficulties encountered, the alternative swap that was performed successfully, and some parting thoughts.
Here's the title and link to the post:
"Swap a good donor motherboard into a G930X LDU (Live Display Unit)? VERY HARD."

Henry, did you mean a G935A, the AT&T version of the S7 Edge? You didn't specify which model you later got, so it is hard to be able to help. Please update your post or reply to this post and specify the full model number of the other phone you got is (I assume it is also an S7 Edge model) so we can speak to compatibility issues. (The full model number, G935-, where the "-" is the suffix, is what tells us the carrier and version of the S7 Edge. For instance the "A" suffix tells us that it is a North American AT&T version. Whereas the G935F model is the International/European unlocked GSM only version of the phone).
If the other phone is NOT an S7 Edge, then don't bother trying to swap any parts. Most likely none of the parts are interchangeable.

S8 and S8+ Duos available to order at from.ae

S8 Duos - $931
Just remember if you buy from another country and the phone has warranty issues it gets complicated because you have to return it to place of origin. This is okay if you live near retailer of course.
Just remember the Note 7 saga. You couldn't even post the phone back.
I had an issue with a s7edge duos from dubai. It arrived with an issue, to have it looked at u have to send back to dubai at ur expense. Problem is if the service centre cant reproduce the problem, they just re-flash the software and send back. After a lot of digging around i read reports of people with similar problem had it resolved by a mother board (pba) swap. This costs £220 to get done in UK. Or costs £120 in shipping to Dubai and a lot of hassle trying to convince service centre to swap the board.
I really like duos but the headache of the warranty/support is too much.
however, if you get a problem free unit then it is just great ?
