[A5 2016] design change? - Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Hi folks,
does someone know why and when Samsung changed their design for the A5-6. I was a little bit surprised when I hold a new SM A510F/DS in my hand today and I couldn't see the second SIM tray. It only works with a SIM/SIM or SIM/SD-card mode but not with the 2 SIM and the SD card anymore.

No. I have an A5-6 with 2 trays. Tray 1 for SIM 1 and SD and tray 2 for the second SIM.

It's being always like that, there is a Duos variant that has the capability of 2 SIMs and the SD, the variant I have is the one that has just the option of 1 SIM 1 SD. Mine is A510M.
The Duos variant are called A510F/DS or A510M/DS.
This is the only tray I have, 1 SIM 1 SD, not 2 SIMs in same tray.

That the point and my problem. I bought a SM-510F/DS and not the SM-510M/DS. And my variant should have 2 trays, but it hasn't. I'm not experienced with the SM-510M but in Sommer 2016 I had bought my first SM-510F/DS with 2 trays.

If you cannot work it out, and you have Xposed working, you may check with the Dev. "Beat_Slayer" he has a module that focuses on the status bar.."NetStrength" but I dont think he has implemented into the module, such as your request..but if possible..he may work with you on that..
Here's his thread link >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=61924002

Just install flat style bar indicator, it's a xposed module, it will hide the Sim card icon.

I believe its for the Zenfone Laser.
Zenfone 2 Laser like it was in my signature - Asus Z00TD (WW_Z00T). MSM8916 with 3GB RAM.
It is ZenFone 2 Laser not ZenFone 2 (Intel Inside) and it was Android 5.0.2.

if you use the official zenfone 2 bootloader unlock tool by asus you no longer get OTA. I used the unofficial method and still get the OTA updates

Yeah, me too. But even if you use the official method, you just have to wait a day or two for the full firmware file. So I didn't get the "pays not to unlock" comment of the OP.

How to get the S7 Edge international Unlocked version?

Hello,
I know that the phone will be releasing on the 11th, and all the pre-order options available are through carriers. I will be ordering online since I live in DR, where do you think I could buy the Unlocked international version of the cellphone?
Thank you.
Ebay. There are several available. It is the Exynos version. SM-935F
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk
Compare Ebay and Amazon to European stores such as Unlocked Mobiles and Clove UK, see which comes out cheaper.
Depends where you are just go to an independant shop that sells all networks and that phone will be the int unlocked version or country version with no bloat ware unless you click on yes on first boot up and install it by mistake , but that can be deleted anyway

Hi
I'm quite interested in the carrier customisation stuff.
What do you mean by click yes on first boot up? What does it say you are clicking yes to? Any screenshots? Have you clicked yes?
Further info much appreciated!
Thanks!
When you boot up a unlocked version you get a pop up in your notifications , for me that's a Vodafone notification which asks you to click on the notification to install their software , it is a pain but if you do nothing the request is gone on the next boot up , this happens in European phones I don't know if it happens on every country my phone is a phn model

Yes the T-Mobile S7 / S7 edge can only be unlocked by the built in device unlock app now
We unlocked quite a few today
Did you order an unlock or was it unlocked by T-Mobile as you purchased it outright?

Seccond hand A300FU Dual Sim, does not have Sim Management Settings.

I've recently bought a Samsung Galaxy A3 Dual Sim off someone.
The physical phone has dual sim trays, and has DUOS engraved on the back of the phone.
The phone model is A300FU, android shows 1.5GB, android version 4.4.4
However, under the settings menu, the Sim Management settings is missing, and there doesn't seem to be anyway to see or control the second sim card.
Questions:-
Does anyone have any idea if flashing one of the A300FU 5.0.2 lollipop roms would fix this problem?
Does anyone have the same phone Dual Sim phone, does yours have a "Sim Management" settings? If yes, could you screenshot it and let me see what it looks like?
didvyou try putting both sims and trying to find sim manager

Tried that, even after putting in both sims, nothing showed up in settings screen on the Galaxy A3 duos.
I've tested both sims on my old Samsung Galaxy A7 Duos / Dual Sim.... both sims are in working order, and works on the phone.
On the Galaxy A7 Duos, the Settings Screen shows "Sim Management" option even if I don't have any sim card in it.
wow, this is very confusing
are you sure you have A300FU, cause the dual sim vairant is A300F, without the U on the end.

I'm pretty sure the phone hardware is a dual sim version. (see attached photos of the dual sim and the duos engraving)
I don't know whether the model A300FU is correct, that's what it says in the "About Phone" screen.
Under "Applications Manager" > "Running" screen, it shows a total of 883MB used + 508MB free = 1,391MB memory ... <= does this mean it's the 1.5GB Ram variant == A300FU?
