If you still have time I would see about cancelling the plan I know in U.S. we got 14 days on most.
Or I would find a cellular capable tablet quick

LOL! It's a hybrid sd card/nano sim card slot I hope? I though that was a feature on the G5? Not so sure now for the H831 model :`(

I just got it today so yeah I have time! I really wanted the data plan deal I got so that's too bad. I guess my G5 wasn't dual sim after all...is it? Should I try and cut the nanosim card to fit or get a sim cradle from another model G5?

It wont fit. The other slot is strictly sd card slot. Both sims u have will fit in the nano slot. I have never used a data only tablet sim in a phone though dont know how that works. The dual sim tray wont fit yours as the hardware is missing if you try to force one you can damage the sd slot pins and or the sim slot pins. I would find a tablet.

Ya, it does. Does that mean it doesn't have the hardware inside for dual sim or is it possible I just need a cradle from a G5 that does :victory:?

Dual sim adaptors, any success?

I have tryed two different dual SIM adaptors on TyTN and none of them works
I've tried Ghost Dual SIM: (no cut)

This is the old version of the famous Ghost Dual SIM, which has no menu, it is the model where you have to swich the phone off and on again.
This one doesn't feet between the phone and the battery, you have to hold the battery yourself and can't put the plastic cover.
Anyone tried with a newer version of it?
And this Dual SIM Holder: (cut)
I've also heared that you loose 3G capabilies of your SIM cards when you put them on a dual sim adaptor, you can only use 2G. Anyone knows if this is true?
Anyone having good experience with dual sim adaptors on TyTN? Which models have you tried?
Dual sim holder (cut) works!!!
I tried to use the Dual sim holder (cut)! It works for me perfectly! I suppose I can use the UMTS too, becouse the "U" is active on the tray (not the "G") and the download speed is: 284.8 kbit/s. Is it faster than the GPRS?

Yes, UMTS is a lot faster
Which dual sim holder is it? do you have to turn off the phone and then on again to switch sims or do you have an "special" menu on the phone to do it?
Also, are both SIMs 64K or more?
Thanks!
Re Dual Sim holder
No, I have two very old sim's (V1 card from 2001).
I don't have to turn on and of the phone to switch between the sim's. I can swich online using the dual sim menu.
I think the speed is low becouse of the sim's, not becouse of the dual sim holder. but I'm not an expert user.
If you have any other information, please write becouse i'm very intrsested in it.

I've done two tests:
1) I tried with one v1 SIM and one 32K SIM on the Dual SIM Holder (cut), but the one which has no special menu to switch the SIMs. This setup was working perfect on my old BlueAngel, but doesn't work on my TyTN, it sees as if there was no SIM card on the phone
2) I tried with two 64K sim on the Ghost Dual SIM (no cut), also the one without special switch menu. TyTN also sees as if there was no SIM card.
Probably I'll have to buy the Dual SIM Holeder (cut) with special menu and try it, but I don't have more v1 SIM cards... grr!! too bad! :?
Re: Dual SIM holder
Hi pof,
I tested my PDA with a new 3G SIM card. The max. download speed was 310 kbit/s by UMTS and 145 kbit/s by EDGE with dual SIM holder. And without the holder the results were the same. So i think the dual sim holder works perfectly in my TyTN with UMTS too. The only different in the speed was becouse the V1 is an older and slower SIM. Maybe.
Re: Dual SIM holder
Great news to hear that it's working!!! 8)
I've just bought one of those Dual Sim 10th Gen, Auto STK Menu, Universal holder cut which include the STK (Sim Tool Kit Menu) on eBay, although it says: and there is no guarantee that this item will work with 3g or 128k Sims, but my SIMs are 64K.
Will post my comments when I get it!
Anyone any more info on TyTn Dual Sim?
I'm off to buy one now, so any recommendations on what to buy would be appreciated (even if you're not 100% sure it will work). I'm looking for something that will take 2G/3G sims.
Thanks.
Andrew.
P.S. I'll post back the results when i finally get the VarioII
Can you receive a call on either numbers?
Forgive the ignorance, can anyone tell me if you can receive a call on either your cut sim (personal) or sim (work) at any one point in time?
Or are you only available to receive 1 incoming line at any one point in time?
Re: Can you receive a call on either numbers?
You can't recive calls in both phone numbers (unless you make a call forwarding from one to the other).
Those devices only let you switch from one SIM to another without actually having to take out the battery and switch the SIM card, but only one SIM is operaitonal at a given time.
Depends if you believe their spiel on their features:
“AUTO SWITCH” feature enables you to receive messages and phone calls on both number synchronously ( Auto switch is set in the on screen menu) timing of 0 to 99 minutes can be set for switching.
Anybody have any idea how that might actually work?
I use the AutoSwitch on other phones, not the TyTn
It will switch lines at the predefined time you specify, but you can ONLY receive messages or phone calls on the line that is currently active. Anything to the other line will go to voicemail. It sometimes doesn't switch lines though, and gets stuck in flight mode instead, and NO lines are active. I don't know if it's phone, network, or dual SIM issue, but FYI. I would like a Dual SIM where you don't have to cut the SIM either. Actually, I wish all the the phone carriers would have stuck with V1 spec SIM cards so we could clone them onto a single card. Oh well.......
Any Update?
Any update on this?
I am considering buying the 10th gen, but it would eb great if someone could confirm it would work on the TyTN.
Thanks
I still not received mine , contacted the ebay seller and he told me he will send a replacement.

sorry to hear that. I have just ordered mine - let me know how it goes
works fine.
When you switch the sim using the apllet provded it puts the ppc in flight mode and it should then put it automatically off flight mode and the other sim is then active. If it hangs, you may need to put it manually back off flight mode, and it works.

Thanks. I've ordered mine and I am now waiting for the delivery.
You mention the applet - does it rely on the Midlet manager on the phone? For some reasons I've got problems making it work.
Under Programs you automatically get a new link "Dual SIM Card."
You do the switching by running the program and clicking on the SIM card (1 or 2) that you want to activate.
which card did you actually but? any details - I'd like one!
Are you guys cutting your sims? What happens if you want to not use the dual sim card thingie anymore?

To OP, use an internet search engine to unlock the sim for your device or call your carrier.
At this time there are no "hacks" to do it.

Actually, his question is how to unlock 'sim card', not the phone...
To OP, if that's what you are asking, your carrier should be eager to give you a new sim card for them to activate a new account for you.
Or you can buy a device that can program sim cards. But I don't really think you can change the carrier ID with such device. Also, remember that not all the sim cards are the same. You can't sometimes program old sim card to works on newer phones. For instance, the Amaze requires the newest one to activate wifi calling, etc.
Or, maybe you just wanted to unlock the device simlock.. Hehehe.

Actually his posts says
"how can i unlock my simcard for work with another network?! "
So I'm guessing that he wants to unlock his device to use a different network's simcard. I could be wrong though. Even if you unlocked the sim card, you couldn't use that sim for someone elses network. For example I couldn't use a t-mobile simcard to use on AT&T Wireless. Even if I could... what would be the point? To save $10?

[Q] Cut a Mini Sim to Micro! But the phone is not detecting it.

Just got an Xperia S from Amazon.com. The title said 'unlocked android phone, international version'.
I cut the Mini Sim to the size of micro sim and inserted in the mobile but the phone is not detecting it.
Did I cut the sim too much?
/Inserted the cut sim back into my old mobile and it is working!/
Help me please.

I don't think we have to lift the thing covering the sim slot to insert the sim, right?
I mean we just to put the sim in the space provided over the sim slot and slite it over inside. That's it, right?
But why isn't my sim not working?
I'm afraid if it is a locked phone. I went to the services info to check it but is not showing that it is a locked phone. What am I missing?
You might cut it too much.
Even if the sim is not allowed you should see the signalbars and can make emergency-calls.
If the sim isn't detected by the phone then you shouldn't see any signal.
When I insert the sim in the phone it gets restarted. And then says that no sim inserted!!!
Asked in a shop to bring the 'Mini To Micro Sim cutter'. He will get it in few hours. Will try it and report back.
Actually I had cut the sim because it worked for others. I went through forums and saw that many did the above process.
I am just afraid if the phone is fine!
It is not locked! I checked it in the services menu! But still am afraid!
i had the same problem like yours when i first got my phone , even i tried cutting my normal sim into the micro sim size and tried inserting it ,however it never worked that way .. may be because of the way each sim card is built. I tried cutting 2-3 sims and it never worked. Eventually i had go to my service provider and had to replace my sim with a micro sim card and it worked straight away. I heard many iphone users claiming the manually cut sim working in their phones but i guess it will never work that easily with XPS. So just chill and get a micro sim from your operator it should work.
Even cutting it with a tool (
) won't work!?
I live in a remote area and getting a new micro sim takes time!
And I wonder if I can get a new micro sim with the same old number and old network!
Hope the tool works!!!
I did cut the SIM myself and it worked the first time in.
It was bit easier for me as I have company iPhone 4, and I could compare sizes and placement.

Same thing for me on XPERIA S. T-mobile Croatia microSIM works when i cut it but Tele2 Croatia is not working. Tried on iPhone 4 and same thing. I cut both in same way so I think the problem is in card. The chip is different on each SIM. Anyway Tele2 croatia microSIM is coming next week so I don't care.
Try cutting a diagonal corner off, make sure its the corresonding one to the mini sim. The contacts may be out of line.

Yep you can, just contact your service provider and tell them to send you a micro sim, or go to one of their stores and have them replace it.
A SIM card can easily get ruined by cutting it yourself, if you cut to close to the connector (Connectors can vary in size) or cut some of the string going down to the actual chip it wont work.

But in India things won't be that simple! If I could get a micro sim from the service provider then I wouldn't be taking the risk of cutting the sim!
Well. Finally I succeeded cutting the sim properly and my mobile is good to go now! Thank you all for the replies!

If Airtel is your carrier, then this is what they write on their website.

You will be able to get Micro SIM from any of the airtel Stores (ARCs). ARCs will also be able to swap your SIM for a Micro SIM. To get Micro SIM, exchange the dummy SIM at any airtel iPhone store (in the SIM jacket attached to your device) .

Just want to share the images of the cut sim that is working fine in my Xperia S.
Still using a tool LIKE THIS will be better instead of cutting it manually because if we cut it manually the lines may not align properly.
micro sim
I've cut mine as well, it didn't work until I cut in to the contacts, IDK why. Then I had to send my phone away because of the yellow tint issue and my newly cutted SIM didn't fit the convertor properly so I wasn't able to put it in my old phone. I had to go to Vodafone to give me real microsim that fits the converter. Once I was in the shop it was question of 5 minutes to get it
Some SIM cards got 5 contacts lines, but you only need the 3 in the middle. Like this I cut myself:
You can see that I cut away some gold at the bottom there.
It also got a little bit smaller on the width, but u just have to make sure u push the sim card as much as you can upwards when you plug it in your phone. If the sim is "hanging" down/not on line, the phone wont detect it.
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
why to cut, my provider (tmobile croatia) give me one for free, 2min in service center and i go home with brand new sim card with same number as my old one..
My service provider charged me $20 for it.
Krkrkr!!
Sony,
put micro sim on their phone for many raison,
but one is to avoid infected sim that cause trouble on the phone(autoreboot,batteryDrain,massive sms sending,avoid warranty,ect..),and force old sim user to get another one,
but if you be sure that you never flash,download,put,copy,ect.. On your previous phone:-D
then you need to cut the sim perfect of the contact,and you need to place it correct,because the contact are not exactly same.
Good luck,
Me,for have network on mine take me 4hours
And if it say no sim when insert it,
you can restart it and it detect correct
Place the square in the midle with tiny push at left.
Sorry for language.
But I strongly recommend you that you wait for a totally safe new microsim
And not try your old sim
But it's just my opinion.
;-)
If after start your phone with signal ok and you receive an empty sms and you have FC in battery stats and one FC on the home friend widget
That's why you not wait a new sim :-D
Ciao
As you can see some are not same

I cut the sim because micro sim is not yet available in our region. Its been many months since iphone 4s is released (dunno if other iphones use micro or mini sim) but still the network providers are not bothering about launching micro sim.

Question Google Pixel 6 - IMEI unknown

I was trying to get an eSIM profile on my phone. I got it installed but failed to enable it or delete it (gives errors).
By rebooting the phone, the phone failed to read even my physical SIM card.
Tried a phone factory reset with no success.
Tried other SIM cards, but I keep getting this error message with any SIM card I insert "the operator can't be switched because of an error"
Is there anything that can be done to fix this so I can use my phone again?
It looks like the ESF file got corrupted or something as I can't see the IMEI anymore in the phone's setting.
Thanks.
how exactly did you try to get the esim profile on your pixel6?
describe every step and any errors, screen shot of any info always helps
too much info is always better then not enough
carrier info and phone model and any other info helps also.
The normal procedure described by Google, Settings ---> SIMs --> add SIM and accepted to have two sims --> download a profile --> then I scanned the eSIM QR code and approved the download.
It is Google Pixel 6 - Andriod v12
The photo is from after the phone factory reset, so the eSIM profile is not visible anymore. Just the physical card which can't be switched on now

Just downloading the eSim is not enough. Your provider has to enable it on their end. Otherwise it won't show an IMEI and you'll get that error. Call them up and make sure you get the eSim registered on their network then you should be fine.
According to them, no issue in the registration from their end
Anyway, It is deleted now and did a phone factory reset. I just want to use the physical SIM card at this stage and not the eSIM profile.

I had a similar issue back in October trying to convert a physical Mint mobile Sim to an esim.
I received an error at the very end of the conversation and my physical Sim would not work anymore. Come to find out. Mint mobile did not support an esim for the P6 at that time.
I had to get Mint mobile to send me a new Sim with my info on it.
As of now, Mint mobile does support an esim, but I am not going to take a chance.

That's the easiest way but they are wrong in that the registration did not work. If it did you'd have an IMEI and phone number on the esim.

myself when people ask for me help i like to know exactly what is wrong and how it got that way.
For some carriers, they have to approve every time you reinstall your esim. Not fun reading the EID off to them.

No, the only way to get the phone working is to send it back to Google to replace it I am afraid.
That's what I did as it is still under warranty.

Google didn't explain the reason but I suspect it is something in the firmware and hope they will provide an upgrade for it.
Which eSIM carrier are you using?

Question eSIM not supported on Korean S22+

Ok guys so i bought Samsung Galaxy S22+ in Korea. I am from Europe. Reason why i bought phone in Korea was it was like 20% cheaper then in EU + it have Snapdragon instead Exynos.
But as i came back home i was in for a surprise, coz i tried to set up dual sim for the phone, but then i realized i cant do it. SIM card tray where u put physical SIM cards have only 1 SLOT, 2nd slot that was supposed to be on the back side is slighty modified so SIM card cant fit in, also there is no writing SIM2 like its written on front (SIM1).
Also phone doesn't have support for eSIM, i cant open SIM manager or anything related to SIM cards in settings of my phone.
Dual SIM is important for me coz i use 1 SIM for SMS and phonecalls, its my number, and 2nd SIM is for internet. We are able to buy internet SIM here that have 60GB of data per month and its super cheap, like 7 EURO, so running dual SIM is super cheap version. If i buy internet via my regular phone providers where i can use phonecalls and SMS combined, it cost like 3x more.
SO yeah, i mean i could go for more expensive version and just have 1 SIM but its stupid coz 1 of reasons was i bought that phone is to run it DUAL SIM, i have also my old Huawei P30 pro working just fine, and now i feel dumb for buying another new phone that was meant to replace my old and its not working 100% correctly...
Can i modify my phone to make it work? Install EU version of Android or something? I would rly like to make it work, although even if i make it work i am not sure if my Internet/Phone service provider support eSIM so i swap this main physical sim with eSIM and then use internet one as physical. But ill deal with this later. I just wanna try enable eSIM first if its possible and have dual sim support in my settings.
Any help is very appreciated!
Best regards!
Hi, I am in the same situation. I bought mine in Peru from an Amazon-like local reseller. The model is SM-S906E and IMEI (eSIM) option is greyed out. Also I can't access the SIM configuration section. I'm installing Android 13 update right now, hope it enables it.
Otherwise, is there something I can do? Or the only option is to return the phone and buy another model?
Thanks!
If the setting is there and greyed out I ASSUME it's something you can easily get working with a CSC change. I have the exact same model and it works for me.
Search in the forum for SamFW, I have commented a few times about where to get it and a quick explanation how to change CSC.
I dont have anything greyed out. Basically i have no SIM options beside locking my SIM or setting a PIN and things like that. SIM settings are almost non existant and when i put 1 SIM in physical slot everything is done automaticaly.
My Samsung model is: SM-S906N
I had the HK version and it had dual-sim, with phisical cards but eSim functionality was also disabled for me.
And also without call recording and few other bits and pieces.
But nevertheless I sold it and upgraded to S23+.
Hi, I know this is off-topic but, I was wondering, since you have a korean model of the S22, after having updated to OneUI 5.1, do you have the Image Clipper feature introduced with the new S23 series? In case you are not sure what I'm referring to, here is a video of it in action;
.
There's a leak claiming it will come to older S22 models, and apparently korean models already have it. I would appreciate if you could check it if you have this feature, and if you do, can you share the buildnumber of the gallery app? Thank you!

I have the same version (with the LG U+ carrier) of the S22 Ultra and yes, I have that feature in the phone. I had no idea that it was implemented in, I just installed and update yesterday.
I have the same problem, has anyone found anything on it? I read that we can't make the e-sim work, but probably in the future with an update we will be able to work with the e sim. I had an s21 ultra, and suddenly with an update, the e sim feature appeared.
