Hey all, as from today I'm a OnePlus 7 pro 5G owner... With a bit of a downfall.
Before I bought the phone I made a bit of research about this device to see capabilities and if it's worth the money.
As I know this device is dual SIM from factory and I was expecting my op7pro 5g to be the same... and it is in a way, but has no functionality of dual SIM phone.
When I've pulled the SIM tray out I could see inside the phone on both sides of SIM tray has SIM pins to make contact to the SIM, so I've made one of the SIMs to fit in the tray because is not a dual SIM one, but you can adjust the SIM card to fit there.. and I know it's not the SIM faulty because I've tried it on and works.
Any idea how to make it work dual SIM... I have to specify it's on a contract from EE UK.
Please give me some ideas, I know to all the stuff with ADB so I'm not afraid to use it ?.
If the phone came from EE instead of OnePlus directly, then it might be subsidized (payments) through the carrier. If it is not unlocked (cannot unlock the bootloader), then you probably won't be able to fix it.
Here in the States (USA), TMobiles OP7 Pro is locked and the second sim disabled. But you can fix that by unlocking the phone and flashing the International Rom to unlock the second sim slot (second slot is software locked, not hardware locked), allowing dual SIM if you can get your hands on another sim tray with the dual slots.
Don't know if this is the same for you, but it is worth looking into if your carrier does lock the phones down and allows them to be unlocked.
It's not dual SIM as it's a limitation of the 5g modem
The 7 Pro 5G IS dual SIM capable. It has 2 modems. The Qualcomm X50 5G modem and the modem built into the SOC for 4G. It's the firmware that's restricting dual SIM functionality. If you wish, you can convert to the international variant but you WILL lose 5G connectivity (if you have it).

yes I own the Oneplus 7 Pro and that sim tray is the exact same one that goes into the OP7T Pro Mclaren.
I have t-mobile and i bought my sim card slots from amazon for both the OP 6T and OP 7 Pro. I was able to successfully convert each of those phones using msmtool. But the damn OP7T Pro Mclaren 5G from t-mobile I can't find a solution.
I have the Oneplus 7t Pro Mclaren 5G Edition and all I want is to activate dual sim. At this point I don't even care if 5G works. I would sacrifice it if there was some way to install OP7T Pro onto the OP7T PRo Mclaren.

I own the Oneplus 7T Pro Mclaren 5G. Is there a way to use Oneplus 7T PRo software to enable dual sim. I am willing to sacrifice 5G

Hi, could you please share msm for me so I could get things working? Thanks

sure, which phone? the 6T or 7 Pro?
Can I confirm that you tried using a OP7Pro international firmware via MSMTool on your OP7PRO5G? Did you ever fix the issue?
I'm just trying to workout if using a OP7Pro international firmware makes it work as a dual 4g sim (I really dont care about the 5G)
FyI I have a OP7PRO5G(EU)
I tried to use msmtool to make it a op7pro international (was a fail or I wasn't doing something right....I get "Param pre-processing") Can someone please advise me.

Hello how i Can do'it?
Just got 10.5.7 on my OnePlus 8. No DUAL SIM SUPPORT yet. Still no WiFi calling feature is showing up with VERIZON WIRELESS sim.
Any one has same issues?
All I know when I had my unlocked OP 8 Pro on T-Mobile wifi calling absolutely was there and worked. Sounds like Verizon isn't provisioning that with the SIM to me..

Correct I sent mine back last week... I wanted to keep the phone but wasn't ready for prime time for verizon.
I have T-Mobile OnePlus 7 Pro for almost 14 months ( with a Texas Number), I'm in Canada and I'm always roaming with Telus network. T-Mobile wont unlock my phone for another 10 months.
I have already flashed my OnePlus with International Firmware successfully, I also bought a dual sim card tray to use both Networks (T-Mobile and a local network) at the same time so people don't have to call a long distance to reach me; I can see 2 sim card however the second SIM card is greyed out.
What do I need to do next to reach my goal?
Does anyone have any clue as to whether or not I could run a Verizon SIM and a Google Fi SIM on this? I currently have the Google Pixel 4XL unlocked using a Verizon SIM and a Google Fi eSIM and was looking to get the 8T as a replacement. But I need both SIMs to work in the phone.
I travel the US and in many places I have spotty signal on one or the other and need to be able to switch between them.
I have been reading that the 8 and the 8 Pro have had (or still have?) issues with the dual SIM not being available.
TIA

If you have the esim for fi and have the unlocked dual sim you should be fine. I converted my 7t to the international dual sim and used a T-Mobile and a Verizon sim without issue. If they didn't have dual sim available in assuming they were carrier locked firmware
I subscribed to USMobile (Verizon sim) 4 month ago and my oneplus 8 (TMO, IN_2017) was unlocked since day 1. I was able to connect to Verizon network with OOS 12.1.
Then, I upgraded oneplus 8 to OOS 13 and then I noticed that I can no longer connect to Verizon network. No phone call, txt and internet. I took my Verizon sim out and put it in iphone 11 and it work. I borrowed my wife tello (t-mobile) sim and put it in oneplus 8 and it works.
I checked oneplus network unlock status and it remain unlocked. But oneplus 8 (OOS 13) just cannot register itself to Verizon network.
What can go wrong here? Did OOS 13 lock the carrier to t-mobile only?
Or, Verizon did not whitelist oneplus 8 OOS 13 (IN_2017)?
Any idea?

Did you contact VZW to have your IMEI reprovisioned under their network?

No. Just curious, I am on US Mobile Verizon network. Should I contact VZW or US Mobile for this?

Although, US Mobile is an American hybrid network operator on Verizon and T-Mobile's cellular network
-- You should contact Verizon first.
