Hi there,
I have the S7 dual SIM. I had been using it set up in the SIM card manager to handle calls on SIM 2 as that was my home SIM slot. I just went overseas and inserted a new SIM card in to SIM 1 slot. Then I used SIM card manager to change voice calls to be handled by SIM 1 but it always dials out on SIM 2.
I can't find any other settings relating to choice of SIM cards......does anyone know how?
I have it set to "always ask" for the time being as this is the only way to dial out on SIM 1.
Thanx for any help.

Hi all,
Does anybody have a problem with data on the second SIM?
You can choose on which SIM you want to use data.
It works on SIM 1 but doesn't on SIM 2.
APN settings are 100% correct.
I have tested the SIM in another phone and data works there.
I've now ordered a nano-SIM to micro-SIM adapter from ebay to test it in the SIM 1 slot.
Quite annoying.
Maybe bcause sim 2 slot works only in 2g
Hi Guys,
A new guy here. As per subject, I have a hybrid dual sim version of the S7 Edge.
In the SIM card manager you can select a "preferred" SIM card for voice/text/data calls, or set the phone to "always ask".
As I'm using a 2nd SIM card to call only 3 of my 500+ contacts I'd like to have the SIM 1 as preferred for everything, but somehow assign those 3 numbers to the 2nd SIM, so when I make a call it ALWAYS calls from SIM 2.
Is that possible?
Kind regards
Paul

Hi Guys !
I have a Samsung S7 edge duos, for which i want to use two SIM cards - SIM 1 is my home SIM, and SIM 2 is a Global roaming SIM with data and Voice.
My question is whether its possible to set my phone in such a way that when I go on roaming i want my SIM 1 to deactivate data services and SIM 2 data services to kick in, since this a global SIM.
Is there an App for that or is there some kind of settings for the same.
Help in this regard would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
John
Not sure if you can do this, maybe with a task scheduler? Best choice is just to manually set your SIM2 to be the main SIM.
The only thing that might work is to call transfer sim 1 to sim two so that any calls received will ring on sim 2 which you can select as the active.
You can not cross connect the apns since they are linked to different sim cards.
Did you try all the dual sim manager apps? they say they do just that!!!
I just upgraded my SM-A700FD to Android 6.0.1 and had trouble with Dual SIM operations.
My SIM 1 is on LTE data whereas SIM 2 has no data. Whenever I make a call on SIM 2 (incoming or outgoing) my data connection on SIM 1 is lost. I have enabled Dual SIM Always On in SIMCard Manager under Setting.
I tried in Safe Mode and still the same. Does anyone has the same issue? This seriously render the Dual SIM phone unusable.
The SIM Card Manager also force SIM 2 to 2G if SIM 1 is set to LTE/3G/2G (Autoconnect), even though my SIM 2 is on 3G network but using only voice and text.
When I am using data on SIM 1 to browse or running Apps, I can receive SMS text on SIM 2 without interrupting SIM 1 data, but as soon a voice call is established on SIM 2 the data on SIM 1 is lost.
Would appreciate it if anyone can help.
Thanks!
Hey there
I have the following situation and basically this is the reason why I've bought a dual SIM
SIM 1 - Vodafone Italy
SIM 2 - Yallo Switzerland
SIM 1 is used ONLY for receiving phone calls and I want to have it 24/7
SIM 2 is more a working SIM, I am using it for phone and internet
Evening I want to switch off SIM 2, don't want to be bothered with calls nor I care for internet.
First problem when I try to "disable" SIM 2 I got the message that the SIM is set as primary (whatever it means) so I cannot disable it (why ????????????)
Trying to findo out what is the reason I have discovered that if I select data on SIM 1, then I can switch off SIM 2 (whaaaaat ?????)
Seems that I am not free to do it
The other thing is ... to "disable" the SIM, I have to go to Settings | SIM and mobile network click on SIM 2 and disable
This is not what you want to do just before going to sleep, I expected something very easy to switch off SIM 1 or 2 based on needs
How can I solve the problem ?
Cheers
Steve
