[Q] N9005 Dual Sim Adapter - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I just purchased a dual sim adapter from Magic Sim for my Note 3 N9005.
The problem is, it can only keep one sim active at a time.
My question is, are there any application available in Android ?
It does not fulfill my purpose of having two sim cards active at the same time, My intention is to use one sim for calling and other for only data.
If anyone has any ideas please help me out.

Nope you will need to get the duel sim version or if your with orange or EE in the UK i know they can add a 2nd line to your current contract or you maybe able to set up call divert from one sim to the other :^)

I'm pretty sure there is no such thing as a 4G dual sim model.
At least the Dual SIM models I've seen myself are 3G ONLY...
Certainly if it's exynos there will be no 4G
just FYI

I know I can always forward calls but my purpose of having two active sims doesn't fulfill. My second sim is only a data sim card. I wanted to usr my second sim for data plan. I have seen other Android dual sim phones that give option to choose data plans from a particular sim. I thought it was going to be similar..
Their products website does say it supports 4g and I can use it too but only one sim. So if I switch to my data sim then I can use 4g but my phone calling sim gets switched off.
I was looking for an application that can help me keep both my sim cards active.

The n9009 had 2 sim slots but never seen one myself :^)

Yes, but you can use only one sim at a time.

There are BT units available which allows 3 or 4 sim active, but only supports gsm, if you need 4g, the main usim will go into the phone.

I send a message to their technical support team. They replied as
"Yes you can although you will need to get your phone unlocked first"
Therefore i need to unlock my note 3 SCL22, before buying dual SIM adapter.

Sim or Micro Sim?

I can't find a clear answer on this, does the nexus 4 use both a standard sim card, a micro sim card, or does it support both?
Thanks in advance
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda app-developers app
Nexus 4 is micro SIM.
Thank you. Does every carrier have micro sim cards? Currently I only have a regular sim card and am not sure if Fido has micro sims.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda app-developers app
I think they all do, yeah. Just give them a call and they'll be able to let you know
I currently have an LG Optimus one with a normal size sim. When I get the Nexus 4 I plan on cutting the sim to micro sim dimensions then sticking it in my new device. Will it work instantly with my existing plan from my Optimus one?

Mine didn't when I moved to the ONE X

Worked a treat

Thanks. I just checked fidos website. They do have micro sims. They even have a dual format (micro sim + regular) so I can use my existing captivate as a backup still.

That's a shame, its fun cutting your own.
You go from scared and worried, to really happy and impressed in a few seconds lol
Its a strange old feeling. Haha
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Lol yes. If I had to I would try cutting it, but that would mean I couldn't use my cappy as a backup afterwards. Definitely glad fido has the dual sim card option for that reason.

I'm on O2 UK with a full-size SIM. Do you think I could just ask them to give me a micro-SIM?
SIM
The phone has a micro-sim and if you cant get hold of a micro then the only decision is to cut it yourself. The sim still works equally well!

Or just ask your carrier for a new sim. Cutters are fun but why not get a new doggie

I had an iPhone 4 so I had to cut my Sim card but when I moved to HTC Inspire 4G then I still had the extra pieces so i fitted them in the device. Now when I will get Nexus 4, I can simply use the Micro Sim and keep those pieces to a safe place

I'm on T-Mobile UK and when I asked they said it would cost me £10. I tried to cut my own, but the chip is huge! What I did was ring them up and they were able to credit me the money to my next bill. Give that a try...I'm not saying it will work, but its worth a try.

T-mobile charged you £10? I'm with three, and I just walked into my local store a few months back and they exchanged it for me for free.

Don't quote me on it but if your carrier supports any phones that require a micro sim, then yes

Yeah, they call is an "admin fee"...not sure why. All the guy did was get a new SIM, scan it in and then enter in my phone number and details. If I hadn't got my money back I wouldn't have been too happy about it.
AT&T gave me one for free as well..

Nexus 4 in Canada?

I know you can order it in Canada on Google playstore but how do you use it to make phone calls and such.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Put a sim card in it, make sure you have available credit or a line, and dial away
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Is your current sim card a microsim? If so you just take it out put it in the Nexus and away you go. If your sim card is not a microsim then you'll have to obtain a microsim from your mobile service provider or find someone to cut your SIM or cut it yourself with a pair of scissors or a sim cutter.
I don't have a cellphone haven't for over a year can you get just a sim card from like virgin mobile? Or get a cheap pay as you go phone and use that sim?

You can get a sim card from Rogers, Fido, Bell, Mobilicity, Wind Mobile, Koodoo etc...
I strongly suggest Wind Mobile, they have unbelievable promo going on right now check out their Wish 40 plan

it will obviously be Micro sim, no latest high end phones use normal sim cards.
all use micro sims or nano sims (eg: iphone 5)..:good:
Normal sim, was just on the phone to o2 and asked the same thing so yeah normal sim
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
normal sim
My network told me it was smaller, hence they're sending me a new one for when the phone arrives.
getting conflict answers.. guess we will have to wait to find out.
Even the various reviewing websites state it's a micro sim.
Micro Sim (i have i9505 and that one is micro sim)
Definitely micro sim. Ignore o2, they are clearly as useless as they were when I was with them years ago.

Try typing your question in the thread, not as the thread topic...
If I was to order s att lte sim card and when they ask for a imei no. If I was to give them one from a regular att prepaid non smartphone could they tell that the phone wasnt a smartphone and if I could get by that if I got the prepaid $50 unlimited everything monthly you think that I could take that prepaid sim card and put it in a smartphone and get unlimited Lte data.Does anyone think this could possibly work.
