Z5 Dual Marshmallow SIM 1/2 Icon Change - Xperia Z5 General

Out of curiousity, did anyone who updated their z5 dual lose both the ugly (and takes up space) SIM1 and SIM2 icons in the status indicator after flashing to MM? I put on the singaporean version and lost SIM2 but the SIM1 icon is still present...

Do you have 2 sims inserted?

yup!

somehow that didnt attach...

I see Sim1 Icon and Statusbar, same for Sim2. This is so anying. Why would I need an Icon next to the signal, its not that hey change position and Sim2 would be first or so.
When one sim is deactivated you keep all icons but they are shaded, so where is the advantage or usage of that Icon.
I would hope to loose it, but my MM update did not get rid of it unfortunately

yes, that is really annoying...

could anyone install the RU version? I get a corrupted file error message

I installed the RU, redownload it, when I downloaded the Malaysia version it was corrupted, think it just happens. The files are huge and one missed but can corrupt it.

Oh ok..

I made a xposed module to hide sim icons on Xperia Z5. It's based on ast's module for Xperia Z3.

[Q] SIMs unreadable

Hi guys! A friend of mine got this strange and unexpected problem!
He was using the Cyanogen 7.2 stable and he screwed a little bit (don't know how really exactly) so I wiped his phone and reflashed the ROM 'cause it rocks
Before that he told me that after turned off the phone, he removed the SIM card (don't know why) and after he re-insert it and turned the phone on, the phone is no more capable to read any SIM card!
How do u suggest to proceed? I don't care what was the cause of this! I exclude a virus, at least there're free app virus-embedded in the play store!
Anyway I'd like to solve this ... what do u suggest?
Thanks in advance!
Reinstall and leave the SIM in the phone?

If you have not tried different SIM, then try to test the phone with a different SIM to see if the problem still exist. If no problem, then he needs a new SIM.

Just got this 19505

So i just got this phone from overseas it's on 4.4.2 baseband version I9505XXUFNBH, I need to get it unlocked but when I put my sim card in it from a different carrier i don't see any options come up for me to enter a unlock code? So I'm wondering if it's already unlocked but still when I have my sim card in it i don't get any signal bars whatsoever, only that circle which is crossed out i see there so anyone have any idea what might be wrong please

Hi
The baseband of your phone is GB/EE the same as mine. So it is possible that it is locked to EE or T-Mobile/Orange. Sorry I can't be of any real help.

Doesn't the icon at the top of that screenshot mean "No SIM Installed"?
Yes but when I installed a sim card the sim icon is gone but still no service bars, just that round circle

Dual E6683 on Marshmallow: I'm downgrading due to bugs

Hello everyone,
After one week of using Marshmallow on my E6683, I decided to go back to Lollipop, I can't take it anymore...
1. On 80% of my calls either my microphone doesn't work or my speaker doesn't work
2. I have data on the SIM card I did not selected for data and the one I selected doesn't have any data connection at all
3. When upgrading the do not disturb mode went to total silence, so my alarm didn't make any sound the next morning and I was late for work
4. It is not possible to choose a specific ringtone for a SIM card anymore
5. Stamina is gone
6. Waze crashes constantly
7. I do not see any benefit after upgrading
Good luck.
Cool story bro

Wouldn't it make more sense to try a factory reset before down-grading? You're gonna have to wipe anyway... why not try it? I think it'd be fair to say the majority of users have been happy with MM.
Were you able to downgrade successfully?
Save it for your facebook page or something. This isn't a place for announcing pointless stuff like this. It's the equivalent of posting somewhere just to say you won't be posting anymore.

I partially agree, it should be shared in the other "Marshmallow Bug" threads instead of opening yet another one,
this slowly is getting difficult to keep an overview over the list of (possible) BUGs with MM
I found the Marshmallow bug thread to be a big mix between all kinds of errors and nothing pertaining to the dual sim model. Also I found that these issues with the dual sim were more blocking than the ones I read.
I tried the factory reset but it didn't change anything.
I was successful in downgrading using ftf E6683_32.0.A.6.209_R4B I found googling.
Now everything is working fine again (especially calling with sound lol )
Guess I will have to wait on the next upgrade for the dual sim model...
Hi OP
Mind posting a guide on how to downgrade?
Cheers

Why? Find the guide on flashing us in flashtool, follow it with the ftf of your choice in downgrading.
It's not like he had to do anything special, just flash the file.

Yeah I just followed the dummy guide for Flashtool and used the Malaysian FTF for Lollipop. Pretty easy.
After that I restored my backup and got everything back
Btw is anyone else experiencing the same problems as me?
I have the E6633 and it's only possible to choose one ringtone for both sim cards and not for each other. It worked at 5.1.1

Enabling VoLTE

Hi, is there any way to enable VoLTE on B380 P9 Lite?
If your provider supports it and you have this option in your tariff, VoLTE is automatically activated.

That's not true. Mi sim support VOLTE 100% sure. But i have not that option in p9 lite (vsn-L31 B397 no brand)

Yeah, your SIM, did you activate this in your tariff or contract? You must explicitly have the option VoLTE in your tariff, not just LTE itself.
Of course. I contacted my contractor and activated it. More, i tried sim in huawei mate 10 pro, and volte works correctly.
What is your P9 lite model version?

Okay, i dont know why it is not worked for you.
I have a VNS L31, C432 3GB Dual Sim.
Uhm, you have dual sim, mine is single sim.
Maybe i could flash dual sim firmware? In that case, do you know if i could use anyway my sd card using one sim card?

I use my SIM on Slot 1 and my SD Card in Slot 2. Slot 2 is in Hardware Base only for SD Card or SIM on EDGE / 2G Network. It can not handle UMTS / 3G or LTE. This worked only on SIM Slot 1.

You can choose the Slot with 3/4G...but only 1.
Slot 2 can be 3/4G also.
It's possible:
1. Slot 1 3/4G - Slot 2 2G
2. Slot 1 2G - Slot 2 3/4G

Installed VNS-L31C432B398 Dual Sim, no option at all.
It seems you are the only one having C432 with volte option... Or... i think you had a branded firmware!
You can try Magisk module VoEnabler or just manually enable it.

That's possible but i have I bought the smartphone from the electronics store. Without a network provider. It is without branding. I do not know why most of this option does not exist. Maybe it just depends on the region.

Have any of you tried the *#272*IMEI# method to change the CSC? Globe is not locked, it just appears to be because it is loading the Globe customization since it is detecting the Globe CSC. I changed mine to XTC.
