Hi,
is there an option to force set the default SIM for texting/SMS ?
I'm using stock ROM - 5.0 (Russian) and stock messaging app.
When I'm using Google Now and saying to send text sometimes it tries to send it through SIM2 instead of SIM1.
In the SIM Manager I've got everything set to SIM1 but that seems to not be enough.
Any ideas welcome.
Cheers
This is a known issue, check the message centre no. set it correctly, sometimes it on its own sets the same for both the sims.

Thanks for the answer,
I've checked the message center and numbers are correct - SIM1 and SIM2 have their own numbers (which are OK)
this issue is really annoying .. it works OK for few times (sends text from SIM1) and one of a sudden tries sending text from SIM2... (which btw fails - luckily because that's the SIM from different country and it'd charge me more )

It is a unlock 16G T-Mobile. I am using AT&T carrier. Everything is OK but cannot send or receive text message. I have tried to flash different roms but none of them are help. My sim card is OK as I test in another cell phone.
Any hint? This is really frustrating me.
Hey,
See to it that you change the SMS Centre number. Go to messages > settings > SMS Centre number and fill out "+19078319301". If that does not work, try "+13123149810".
Hope this helps you.
Hi
I have a little problem. Normally I should be able to just hold the "1 button" in the dialer and it should call the voicemail number stored on the simcard, but instead it says that the number is not setup and that I should configure it in settings. I then press settings and try to put in the voicemailnumber, but then I get an error that it couldn't be said and that I should contact my provider if the error persists.
I have called my provider but it hasn't helped much (they tried taking reassociate my voicemail from their side, they got me to change simcard and reset the phone, but still no solution)
So there are 2 problems:
Nexus4 is not reading the voicemailnumber stored on the simcard
and
I cannot manually set the voicemailnumber
This is on stock android 4.2.1 and the number is ported from a normal sim to a micro sim(and I know am running on another micro sim the said I should try)
Does anyone know what is failing and what I can tell my provider to get this fixed. I know it is minor annoyance and I am just calling voicemail from my contacts instead.
Best Regards
Hasse

Do you have google voice app installed on your phone? If you do try removing and then try adding the number,.
Thanks for the suggestions. The apn settings is correct - so they must have been read correctly from the simcard
I don't have Google voice installed(seems I cannot even get it in danish play store)
The problem also exists after doing a factory reset and 3/three has also replaced my simcard, but I still cannot set my voicemail number (in the settings of the dialer). So I'm thinking that 3/three in Denmark maybe are doing something wrong with the simcards? I will try later to put it into another phone and see how that work

I believe I have found a solution to this problem.
the solution is to utilize the Assisted dialing feature, with some modifications (phone dialer>settings button>call settings>assisted dialing [tap to edit]). When I chose the country for the assisted dialing, it correctly selected my country code as 994. However, in order to make my texts work I had to manually add in the "+" sign. now the phone recognizes the "+994" that is in all of the contacts and inbound phone numbers. texts now seem to works as they should. Also, be sure to turn the assisted dialing on.
Hope this helps all of the other travelers out there.

Hello guys,
I flashed exodus rom (cm -- MM) last week and I am having a set back. Ive searched around and tried a few things but I cannot find a solution.
On oxygen os, in the dialer app, you could call from SIM 1 and SIM 2 even if you have set a preferred SIM in the settings. That was really handy.
On Exodus, I am using the Google Phone app from opengapps (Aroma installer) and I cannot find this option (as expected). I know I could set the settings to "Ask every time" but this would not be handy when I am calling from my car via bluetooth. Making a call from the car dashboard would not be possible since I will not be able to select the sim while driving.
I have tried a few dialers which apparently have this option but I cannot seem to enable it or something. I have tried zero dialer (for example) but when dialing a number I can see only 1 call button which uses my preferred sim settings. Of course, if I set the settings to "ask every time", while making the call it opens the phone app which asks for which sim to use. I am starting to think that these apps are not aware that the phone is a dual sim phone.
Has anyone faced this issue and found a solution to this?
Thanks
Edit
Check post 3 for solution
I am facing the same issue. I am on CM.
Well I found a solution.
True Phone Dialer and contacts actually gives you the option to choose sims. After installing the app, go to settings and enable dual sim. Now after dialing a phone number, hold the call button and a menu will pop up which will allow you to choose sims!
Since you do not need to set the phone settings for the sims to "Ask every time", you can still make calls via bluetooth connected devices. These calls will go through the preferred sim set in the phone settings for sims.
Hope this helps someone.
Hmmm
You should be able to set this in the sim options to ask every time.
Google phone doesn't have dual sim support, use default app..
Can't remember if default Exodus app has this option I guess it does

anyone know if there is any way to assign a contact to use a particular Sim with out switching using the Sim manager, when yo dial a number you get the option to select the Sim to use but the contact seem to only use the selected Sim ATM i hang up and you can the redial and select the Sim ( i have my home Sim and works Sim in the phone )
I have tried Samsung but the are unhelpful as i am using the phone in the UK and its not supported in this region,
If anyone in a region where the dual Sim version is supported has 5 mins to chat to samsung via there web chat can ask the question if there is any way to set a contact to dial using sim1 and another contact to use sim2 the ask them to request the feature be added via there dev team it may get added or i may just have to go back to LG as they have better call control..
thanks in advance

Hi,
I also have a G935FD and indeed, you're right I haven't found anything to be able to choose from which sim card you want to call when calling via contacts. It works only when you dial from the touchpad...
Complaining at Samsung might help to implement that process in the upcoming updates.

This is exactly what I found bit annoying, you couldn't set preference per number as which SIM to use out of the box (by not using any app.. just plain OS based solution), I couldn't find any. Tried asking on this & other forums. http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/sgs7-changes-marshmallow-t3353208
On the play store, found couple of paid apps that were doing the job, but one of them was not working on v6.0.1 (app creator was still in process of upgrading app to work on MM v6.0.1), another app gives you 7 days of free usage but costed £5 after that. I also tried to create a solution using Tasker, but it required a plugin which was first app that I mentioned was still under upgrade.
Frustrated with these problems, I decided to take control myself & now I'm in the process of developing an app that will exactly address the number-SIM preference. I found that Android has exposed a multi SIM API in version 5.1, but it's so poorly documented that I got really really angry about lack of information. Somehow I managed to build a workable copy of app. In this app you can specify rules based on Regular Expression number matching as which SIM to use if the dialed number matches regular expression specified. There is also an auto learning feature, where it will remember SIM for a number to dial.
As I said, I'm still in the process of developing this app, it's not professionally perfect but definitely does the job for now.. (It takes lot of time as I'm not an app developer & devoting time is a problem ), there are many features I want to implement in this app, but let's see when I find time. It's working perfectly on my S7E dual sim (I can't guarantee that it will work on any other device - although it should as app is built using androind 5.1 API -- I haven't tested on any other device).
If you need a copy of APK, do PM me & I'll send you one.. I've also posted same message here.
i will be interested to see the final version, ask always is working as a temporary fix.
preferred sim not working
for me if i click on a contact to call someone then it asks call from sim1 or sim 2 but i already chooses sim2 as preference. if i use swipe it is going from sim 2.
