Hello guys,
Mate 10 Pro C636 Asia here.
I have to travel to Africa for 6 months and I put my Malaysian SIM(Maxis) in the second SIM slot while the Nigerian SIM in first SIM slot.
Please, I want to know if this configuration will be able to detect firmware updates or do I need to put the Malaysian SIM into the first slot?
Thanks guys
Someone should please help here.
1. Do I use only Malaysian SIM?
2. Can I use Malaysian SIM and my current region's SIM? If yes, which should be in slot 1?
3. Can I get it with any other SIM?

for this you need to check on what frequencis their lte and 3g are working. IF they are the same, everything will work. Sim slot doenst matter i think
Doesn't matter if u use any sim slot.
You get updates even without sim card over wifi.
The moment you get updates depending on imei numbers.

make sure you put the sim in the correct way, also make sure the sim works
if you put a sim in a simlocked xperia it just gives you emergency only, but you should be able to access sim card (for example phone contacts on sim)
hope this helps

I do have my Docomo SO-01B SIM unlocked code purchased from a Web site. It was cost USD$19.95
Actually, it's not blocked, but rather locked due to its nature of being contracted to NTT Docomo. You have to either use a SIM card from Docomo (which is impossible, since you'd need to be in Japan to use it, and roaming costs you a fortune, so let's not choose this) or remove the SIM lock.

please tel me how remove the SIM lock. ?
I'm sorry but I don't know as I've never had this problem. You might get more help if you create a new thread in the Q&A section. Make sure the title is something like "How to remove SIM lock?" and include the details of your phone, except your IMEI. Just tell them what model, and which provider you bought it from (in your case, NTT Docomo SO-01B, the Japanese version of Sony Ericsson Xperia X10).

hi sir,i have the same problem with you...if you already unlock ur phone.can u give me some ideas please..
Well I have HTC One Max 809d which is the only version that have CDMA+GSM Dual Sim Feature . Its imported from China but I am unable to use any CDMA sim in India as it shows no network but I can use GSM sim in India on its second slot . So I think it first slot i.e CDMA may be locked to its original network or region i.e China Telecom and China Region.
I have searched a lot on this and does not found any help but found this is a general problem on all dual sim cdma+gsm mobiles imported from china.
I have already tried various steps like unlocking bootloader, s-off , changing cid but did not receive any success on unlocking cdma network.
I also want to install gapps but there is no custom recovery for this version on one max only availabe is FOR sprint t6_spr , t6_vzw,
and mine is t6_dwg.
So Please help me in this .
Thanks

Well that goes against the CDMA standard. I know india phones well and the dual sim is for dual GSM sims or a CDMA data sim. CDMA is completely different tech then GSM that uses sim cards. If it is locked then you will have to call the Carrier that released the phone and have it unlocked but I think you will find even then you will only get a data sim with CDMA

mine started life as a single sim c782 variant,
i changed mine to c432 variant by flashing a c432 dual sim oeminfo and flashing the relvant software and now have a fully working dual sim phone, accepting updates and works great.

Could you please share with more detail instruction about it ?
You need to flash a new oeminfo for the right region, I went for c432 dual SIM which is pretty much all you need to do to enable the second sim. Then you need to flash the correct firmware for that region. I then updated the firmware via firmware finder, but hrupdater it probably an easier way of doing it. And that was pretty much it. I used hwota8 to flash the correct oeminfo and the rest as described above.

Hi pls upload the oeminfo for the c432 dual sim .
Thanks in advance.
If you download hwota8 in the roms section, it's in that software. Just unzip it and you will see the oeminfo file. That's the one I used.

You have to flash oeminfo from dual sim and then flash full firmware.
Flash only firmware from dual sim your device stay a single sim.
I checked mine in the other way around, I flashed single sim firmware in my dual sim device and it stays a dual sim.
Can anyone post a step-by-step tutorial?

Be aware that the IMEI from second SIM will be null.
You can find the C432 dual SIM oeminfo in the HwOTA8 for Huawei P20 Lite https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-lite/development/hwota8-huawei-p20-lite-t3787787

In this case that imei of the second sim is null "00000", the second sim works both for calling and for internet ? and the sims work simultaneously?

One SIM - 2G/3G/4G
The other SIM - only 2G
No, they don't work as Dual SIM active, they work as Dual Stand-by, when one SIM is making or receiving a call the other SIM would be ignored.
Hello,
i have p20lite single sim C432 Italian.
Can i transform in dual sim?
Hi,
I have a P20 lite from Orange orignaly ANE-LX1 8.0.0.149(C109).
Only one SIM is available.
So, in the objective to get dual SIM phone, I did :
1. Unlock BL
2. Flash dual sim oeminfo C432 using HWOTA
3. Flash ANE-LX1C432B172 (8.0.0.172) : update, update-data-full and ANE-L21_hw_eu
Result is :
- 2 IMEI, second is null
- Both SIM are detected and connected to the network
- Only first SIM can make/received call/SMS
- It works better when I switch data 3g/4g on second SIM - at least for few minutes I can call from both SIM
If I compare with my old P9 lite, fully fonctional dual sim, I see only one IMEI.
Well, any idea for next step? @kilroystyx @DANIELWHITT maybe?
Thanks.
Hi, I just bought Xperia 1 but unfortunately J8110. Is there any chance to convert it into dual sim with J9110 rom? Sim card tray is different but it isn't a problem. I'm not sure if there is a different modem in there. Has anyone tried this before?

Xperia J8110 is a single sim and there is no hardware in the mainboard for the second sim. it can only support 1 sim and 1 microSD card. so, no need to flash a different rom and mess up with your phone. just flash the correct J8110 rom
