switch between two sim! - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General

hi to all, anyone now a light program that you permit to switch two sim?
i've bought a dual ghost sim but now i don't now anything about witch sim is in use!
someone could help me?

Actually in Hong Kong, it has 2 types of dual sim slot, ie., with STK (Sim tool kit) function and without.
If it got STK function, it will call the stk application automatically on your program area, and u can select which sim to use.
If no STK function, u just need to switch on / off between flight mode and it will switch

many thx but is not what i'm searching..
i'm looking for a today plugin that show wich sim is in use!

Look at this Page http://toosten.de/index.php?seite=sw&id=4
Ist a german Software Developer! I think the Software can get only in German!
I think its that kind of program u search for.
Perhaps u can connect the Developer to implant an English interface.

Take a look at PhoneAlarm (PocketMax ) or PhoneDashboard ( hudsonmobile ).
Phonedashboard shows on wich network you are.
PhoneAlarm shows the strengh of the network signal and if you click on it it shows you on wich network you are.

many thx for all people's reply.
@Switchcorp
this two progrs i've already tested but they are too heavy for my battery they requires too much resource!
@no_Legend
i don't know why this great program doesn' works in my qtek!
hehe I hope in a new version soon!
if anyone as a new idea please post here!!
many thx

I dont know it should work! Some other Qtek User are working with it perfectly. Perhaps it's a problem with your Firmware at the german os it's working great.
I will contact the developer perhaps he can explans us why it is not working with your qtek!
I will post the new information when i get them!

I am using a Magician and a Motorola MPX220, both with a duplicated SIM Card (2 Cards). Of course, not both can be used at the same time, so I find Wivit's Software an easy way to quickly turn off my phone on the magician.

@hrb
so your using 1 number in each phone, albeit the same number? or have you got two numbers on each sim?
Speedn

where to get this ghostsim.
hi,
where do you get this DUAL SIM for the magician???
where do you buy this covering..
can somebody post a link pls..

I've bought this one:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=6414061281&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT
This requires you to cut the sims; this was straight forward.
Some people say it doesn't work with UK 02 monthly sims; I have one, and an Orange PAYG, and they both work perfectly in the Magician.
It took quite a lot of repositioning of the little cut sims - the multisim works perfectly in a nokia because it puts pressure on the back of the SIM to keep it in place. The Magician only puts pressure on the very edges of the SIM, so I stuck a tiny bit of blue tak under the metal cover that covers the mini sims, to bulk it out tiny bit, and it works perfectly.
There are apparantely other very similar products eg
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=67966&item=6416678468&rd=1
that use the "STK" menu (SIM tool kit) to allow you to switch sims without switching to flight mode and back. However, I've read a review that says such STK cards suck power more quickly than the others. I can't comment - mine doesn't seem to use the STK menu, but it doesn't really bother me.
I also think that when ebaying, unless you expressly search for an STK card, you will get one that doesn't use it.
So: cutting is no problem, just measure twice, cut once etc.
Requires a lot of careful positing in the Magician, so it's best to have a spare phone (eg a nokia) to test it in to ensure it works first, so you know the problem isnt' the sims.
Also, hah hah, I found that removing the battery from the Magician for more than a few minutes coursed a hard reset, of course, so ensure you backup before doing this procedure cus you'll have your battery on and off throughout.
Good luck y'all!

2 Sims ?

Any one tried any kind of solution to have two sims installed ? Software / Hardware ?
Terran
Hardware
the one where you have to cut the sim out and stick it into a single SIM.
then you will have to turned on flight mode and turned it of when you want to switch
work great for me (Qtek S100, S110 and now 9100-wizard)
See ya
Has anyone tried the 'king of double card'type dual sim adapters in the Wizard. I have one in my Himalaya and I heard that there is also enough room in the Magician. Would like to know if it also fits into the Wizard (planing to buy one) because I do not like to cut my sims!
Hi bruxelles5
i couldn't understand you bruxelles5 !! would explain it ? thank you in advance
You cut the chips out from two of your existing SIMs and insert them into a special holder that a fits in your phone's SIM slot.
Each time your turn the phone on and off (or use flight mode) it switches between SIMs.
An example here http://duosim.com/.
Another type gives you an extra menu on supported phones to switch numbers without having to turn it on/off.
Note - I've never used any of these gadgets so YMMV. And cutting up your SIM risks damaging it permanently.
I use a SuperSIM card that lets me store up to 12 different sims on the one sim card. It came with a reader that lets you copy your individual sims to the computer, then copy them all to the SuperSIM. Works fine on the Wizard.
Hey mitchelo,
This supersim sounds interesting. How do you switch from one sim to another using your Wizard?

Wow! that sounds like a neat piece of kit!...
I uesd a dual sim holder and this sim switching software on my xda 2s.
http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=19046
Worked pretty well, although beta version did not always pick up one of the telephone numbers. They may have fixed this in the 1.0 version.. You can download the trial and see if it works on the wizard. I have not tried it yet..
Regards
Chris
The SuperSIM has a menu that lets you choose between the 12 numbers. It appears as an icon in the programs list. Just click it and you will get the menu.
I have a Telstra and Optus SIM on my supersim.
(P.S. this message was sent from my K-JAM )
Looks like a good bit of kit. Checked the web site out and it looks like it sells for $45 plus shipping. One question though. It talks about only being comaptible with sims that have a couple of different 'formats/protocl' (for want of better words) I am cluless as to what this is for Tmobile USA and 02. Can you shed any light on if I might have a compatibility issue using it?
Many thanks!
Chris
There are some sims that this won't work with. For example I can't use vodafone sim cards with it. I did some searching online before I bought, and knew that voda wouldn't work.
As the expression goes, 'google it'
ok, many thanks, will do. Probably better than trying customer care eh
@cbrow51:
Search the internet for any Ki extractor or a software called Cardinal (can't remember the link).
Extracting the Ki from your sim is the first step you need to create a backup. As of today we are able to extract that value from Comp128V1 cards only. SuperSim and similars are able to emulate these type of cards.
So, give that software a try. If it is able to extract the Ki, feel free to purchase the supersim or whatever.
Save your money for a dinner with your partner, if the software fails.
I hope it does help.
Silver.
You have to have a SIM reader that comes with the SuperSIM to check the Ki. Just google your service provider with something like "{your carrier} supersim". Worked for me.
Almost true, mitchello...
My dearest old smart mouse did his job seamlessly.
Furthermore some of the tools I am talking about are free.
When I was working for another company, I used to carry two mobiles with me. Until I found SIMEMU (still largely available for free on the net) coupled with a set of completely free tools that allowed me to backup my two SIMs into just one.
Search the net for SIMEMU... you'll see that the SuperSIM guy has reinvented the weel... getting payed for his efforts !
C'ya mate.
hi there. where did you buy this super sim and how would i find its compatability with uk network sim cards
cheers
I got mine on eBay. Ask the seller about compatibility, or look on Google.
hi there. thanks for the prompt reply. do you remember who the seller was on ebay. help much appreciated. cheers.
I got mine from a seller called "memoryku". He has several auctions like this one atm:
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/SUPER-DUAL-M...832609382QQcategoryZ10364QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
These only work with comp128 - v1 cards.
UK cards are not this so it won't work

Can I duplicate a sim card?

I love my wizard, but sometimes I want to take something smaller with me. I have another cellphone, but I don't want to have to pull them apart and switch the sims every time I swap them. Is there anything out there that will make an exact copy of a sim card so i could keep one in both of them and then just turn off one when I'm not using it?

they do that here in Bulgaria, but you have to be VEERY careful to switch off the unused one..
I know it is a lenghty process and takes a day to clone the card
guttrhead: what country are you in?
Have a search on the board for multi sims or clone sims.
Basically, in Western Europe, you're unlikely to have much success due to the encryption system used in the SIM.
V
Most providers here in europe offer DUO SIM solutions, where they provide you with a second sim with your telephone number so you can put that in a second phone or a car system. Most of them only charge a small one-time fee for it.
Of cource only one of the SIM's can be active.
Cheers

I'm in the US on cingular. I'm thinking about just buying something like this from ebay. If it doesn't work, at least I could use the sim utilities it has, considering the wizard doesnt really have any.
guttrhead: as le_cactus says, if you can get a 2nd sim, get one.
However, cloning a sim requires cracking its protection. In this country at least, that can be destructive to the sim, and even then, not successful.
I've posted a number of posts on this issue. But I have no experience with US sims...

Multi SIM Cards avalible here in Thailand as well. Switch by *100# from Phone to Phone (up to 4 phones. Check with your provider!
I've just ordered one of these super sims. Looks like the donkey's dangler, then I can keep my wizard and universal on the go and switch as desired.
If it works of course... :lol:
I have a similar card reader + card... from another copmpany...
It works fine with portuguese cards... I have it for 2 years now...
As naugthy said, it really takes quite a few hours to read(crack) the original... just depends on how fast is your computer... mine took about 8-10 hours per card (2 years ago...)...
But they also warn that cracking the card *may* be destructive for the card... But if it happens, you can try to contact you network provider and ask for a replacement because it «just stopped working»... or something...
Cloner on ebay
It looks good .... but does it allow you to use your telephone service? Reading the details on the advert it seems to me that it only copies the data from your sim but mentions nothing about using it for calls/GPRS/GSM etc.
If it works let us know. I am a bit wary about swapping my sim between my MDA Pro and 6515 and this gadget looks an ideal solution if it really does work (I have my doubts :? ).
I will report back. And out of geek interest, I will be doing the cracking on an AMD FX55 processor with 4Gb of dual channel RAM, so I will time the cracking process.

The kit I have has a card reader/writer and copying software. You need to copy/crack the sim card and save it into a file in your disk. You do this for the sims you want to copy (I have 2 cards, one for each network).
After that, you copy these files into the multi-card using the same software, and you're ready to use it.
It works perfectly for calls, gprs, gsm... In the SIM apllications area I have an extra app that enables me to switch between cards.
The card I own (not the one that was posted) only has one problem: it cannot have a PIN.
Can i just get another cingular sim and load the settings onto it, or does it have to be the super sim that comes with it.

At first I thought I'd wait for someone else to try the super-sim. Now I am regretting changing my mind.
No problem with the order - nice and quick. Super-Sim, USB sim reader, Installation CD and instruction card in a neat bubble pack. The instructions were not very clear to me (poor translation?) and contained warnings that some sims were not compatible and the copying process may destroy them. The instructions on the CD were a little clearer so I decided to take a chance.
Tried it with the T-Mobile sim from my MDA Pro. 3 Hours later it told me it wasn't going to work. Same for the o2 sim from my XDA2.
Both sims still appear to be working but as I understand it, the more cycles of trying to 'crack' the sims, the more chance of destroying them. This makes me reluctant to try again with different settings.
Sorry if I seem a bit vague but I didn't really know what I was doing. I could have done with better instructions.
Anyone know a little more about this please?

Dual Sim problem

Ok, I have been browsing this forum for a solution to my problem and none seem too specific, at least for my BA wm6.
Here is the problem: I just received a dual sim adapter (the one that needs cutting) -both sims work fine. I can't get them to switch from one sim to the other from my phone. power on/off and flight mode won't do it either. I tried phone alarm, dual sim switcher, and wivit. They don't work for my phone. I also have a wm2003 se BA and tried it on there and I was only to get the dual sim to switch once. So now the dual sim is stuck on SIM2. So it doesn't matter which phone I use I can only use the sim that is on the SIM 2 slot! Blah!!
What I need: A program, or anything to switch my SIMs for my BA wm6. I don't want to keep taking out my sim and open the sim adapter and switch the two sims all the time.
Edit: after fooling around with my 2003se BA I managed to get the Dual Sim Manager to work again, and I noticed that despite switching SIMS, phone information alway display the default SIM. Does this mean that it is not switching? Does this mean that it does switch but the phone does not display it? If latter is the case then I am in big trouble! One SIM has unlimited internet and texting and other one is just a basic plan. Please help! I don't want a surprise bill!
Edit: Sorry, I needed an answer so I'm feverishly testing this crap out. And the answer is yes the sim changes but the phone does not display so. The trick I used is texting my account info and voila! Two different accounts! So, now over to my wm6 BA and check that out
I'm really surprised, that people are so patient to fight with such an uneffective and clumsy device as dual SIM adapter: you have to cut/destroy those SIM cards, then you have to pray that i works with your phone...
I really think, that if you really need to use 2 SIMcards, why not buying a 2nd phone, or just a special phone with 2 radios and for 2 SIMs.
And please don't tell me it's "for comfort" - dualSIM is antiComfort...
There are other solutions that you don't need to cut the sim, one that I have seen is the addapter is placed in the sim slot and the simm are part of the battery pack.
Bottom line is that that one sucks as well.
I feel there is a valid need in my line of work were I would need at least 3 laptops to support the Builds of my customers however VMWare gets me by fine.
As for the phone, I need 2, carry 2 and hate it.
So I would be a buyer if there was anything around worth having. (which as I still have a BA seems not the case).
Dual Sim Problem
Hi pharmeceutikle,
I wonder how this device works for BA at all!
I tried an adapter like yours of a friend of mine and it just doesn't work with my BA.After inserted, I don't see any new menu for it and when I restart the BA, it shows invalid sim message at startup. I have installed a WM6.1 ROM downloaded at this site [20749 (Build 20749.1.4.0 PV DVH) - v13] and my radio version is 1.12 (by the way, it was 1.15 but 1.12 is the only one that worked fine for my device). The same adapter, once installed on a Motorola phone of my friend works pretty fine! so, it's not a problem with the adapter, I guess...
Did you change anything on registry? could you please tell me how did you proceed since cutting the sims until you got it to work, please?
Many thanks!

This dual sim adapter only works if you have a working STK ROMs. I believe I used Helmi's original wm6 as one of them and then I went to others but I can't quite remember which. I posted an experiment with the all the ROMS I used awhile ago so just do a search under my name. Anyways, I couldn't get it to switch sims normally so I had to reset the damn thing all the time. I would go to the STK menu and choose either sim 1 or 2 and then quit out and then reset my phone for it to make the change which really is a pain. As soon as my second sim ran out I just tossed the infernal thing and stuck one sim per phone! Sorry couldn't be much more of a help.
Thanks
Thanks anyway I'll keep searching for a while.

Dual Sim Application

I have my Xda Orbit ii, In a mobile shop around i can get the dual sim thingy, which breaks my sim into two halfs and we can use either one of them at one time. Is there any application or software which enables me to use both at the same time or just a quick sim changer? Cause restrating the phone means wastage of 10mins lol.. Help

I think most dual SIM modules have the ability to dial a set number to select one or the other SIM.
There's also this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=302759
A today plugin that lets you switch the SIM.
I don't think it's possible to have both at once without two SIM readers built into the device which an Orbit does not have!
In fact, it's really simple to explain (and to understand, i hope )
To have dual SIM operating together, you'll need to have 2 antennas, and 2 Radio ROMs...
If your phone only have one antenna... you'll have to switch manually from one SIM to the other...
If you're looking for a mobile with dual SIM (like in China), make sure that they have 2 antennas...
I don't know if such a mobile exists... and is powered by Windows Mobile !

It cost about 16 to 20 euro and allow to switch simcard without power off.
Search on ebay
I hope I have been use full

i bought this 16th sim adapter. but i can't us it. I've a Glofiish X600.
x600 can't recognise, it want to "INSERT THE CORRECT SIM"
what would be the solution? some kind of accesories? is it the wrong of WM6?

Thank you anyway...
Hi,
I had similiar troubles with my Trinity. In this case the solution was trivial - the SIM did not touch the contacts in the device properly (the SIMs from different providers can have differences in thickness). Try to insert a piece of thick paper behind the SIM. Good luck
