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!!!

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

Thanks for your reply.. That means this functionality is removed S4 onwards.. [emoji19]
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
Seeing that no one can help me with the problem below, maybe some one knows how to add 1700/2100 to band frequency to 3G?. that mite increase speed?
Problem, Can not get phone Mobile network to use 3G/4G/LTE, Only EDGE will show for each Sim Card Signal.
Details on phone: Vibe 5K Plus, Build A6020a46_S105_161124_ROW, Type PA2R, Model 0117IN.
Qty 2 T-Mobile sim cards: Slot 1 for Data Sim card, Slot 2 for calls & text.
Have taken phone to T-Mobile service store, and spoken to T-Mobile global support on phone about problem with not being able to use 3G/4G/LTE.
The APN settings have been checked with T-Mobile as been correct.
When looking at phone Settings, SIM Management displays Default 4G/3G Subscription[/B for the Data sim card in slot 1.
Also Enhanced 4G LTE Mode is turn on
When looking at phone settings, About PhoneStatus/Cellular network type, displays T-Mobile EDGE in sim card slot 1.
Other T-Mobile sim card in slot 2 displays GSM
When looking at phone settings Mobile Data Mobile Network settings, T-Mobile data sim card in slot 1 displays Preferred Network Type GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto.
Other Mobile Network settings for sim card in slot 2 for calls and text displays GSM only , this is greyed out.
When Data sim card or Call & text sim card are turn on in network, Both only show EDGE and is really slow.
Dear all,
I need a creative idea here: SIM 1 is my "calling SIM" , SIM 2 is data only. Consequently, SIM 2 is set to 4G. It seems though the Galaxy S8 does allow WiFi-Calling only for the 4G SIM. The setting to switch it on is not existing when the SIM is set to 2G/3G.
Any way to have WiFi Calling switched on for the 3G SIM? Alternatively, any way to use Tasker to switch profiles automatically when my Home WiFi is connected?
Cheers!
