I have just got my new yotaphone 2 (old one "dead"...) This one is a yd 201, the old one a yd 206 if that makes a difference...
The old one supported eap sim, enabling me me to use my provider's free wifi (freewifi_secure), though there were glitches, as when reconnecting, the sim occasionnally didn't appear...
The new phone doesn't show the sim option in peap menu at all... So, does that model not support eap-sim, or is it only an occasionnal occurance?
It seems I have the option of adding changes to wpa_supplicant.conf
But is this file accessible ANYWHERE?
Is there some kind of file explorer I could use on THAT phone?

My provider (Globe Telecom) recently released their product Opti-SIM wherein there exist two lines in one SIM. It is easy to use via nokia phones coz you may toggle between lines by using Line1/Line2 in their menus. I'd like to use this special SIM in my XDA2 but I dont know how to configure the said feature. I've searched the whole Settings but I can't see any Line1/Line2 stuff.
I know some of us here have been using Dual SIM adaptor however this case is different, it is only 1 SIM with 2 Lines. I'm hesitant to avail it yet since I dont know if it will work with XDA. Does anyone know how to use it?
2 lines? what are the details of this? when did they start offering this? i'm a globe subscriber too.

How it done on multiple SIMs.
I have programmed my silver sim with 4 sims and I use SIMs' pins to switch between them
Orange in the UK have the option of using two lines on one SIM but I think I'm correct in saying that this is not supported on the m1000 (their version of the XDAII, Qtex2020, iMate etc).
2 lines 1 simm
Orange supports 2 lines 1 simm[/b]. Orange is the only provider that supports this feature. I have Nokia 6600 with 2 lines and you toggel between lines by holding down the hash Key for 5/6 seconds. I have a m1000 and orange says 2lines 1 simm is not supported by the m1000. I have tried the simm and it recieves call on both lines. but you have no way of toggeling between the 2 lines ie you can only call out on the main line.
If anyone works a way round this then it would be welcome. [/quote]
Yes it is being offered by Globe. They can convert your 2 SIM's into 1 having 2 lines (cell numbers) in it. I think they've been offering this since July 2004 or earlier, im not so sure, but they only offer it to plan holders. You will be charged Php300.00 for conversion.
I found a thread but I can't remember which one, someone said you may toggle between lines using SIM Toolkit under Programs. I think the SIM card itself has a menu where you can switch between lines. It can be accessed through SIM Toolkit. No need to softreset. Although I haven't tried that yet, I'll be converting my 2 SIM's tonight, wish me luck.
Confirmed, I'm the living proof globe user, 2 lines in 1 sim. But you'll have to check your O2. I think previous models don't have the sim tool kit found under program files. I'm not sure if this is downloadable. Mine has it in the ROM, so even if I hard reset, it's still there. it's kinda a hassle to change lines though. I'm trying to find a macros to do it. go to program files/ sim tool kit/ my lines/ switch lines. These are the steps.
Question for Ilyas Khan:
Does this mean that if I can somehow get two lines stored onto my SIMM then it will accepting incoming calls on all of them at once? If they're both on Orange I mean.
What about multiple lines from different providers? I would imagine that it's not possible for the radio equipment to monitor more than one provider at once!
You can unblock your phone and purchase something called a ghost sim = 2 sim adapter that sits between battery and external cover. You can switch between the 2 providers by soft reset and choosing on start up. However these are temperamental and took me a while to find one that works on Himalaya's.
JPS is referring to the DUAL SIM Adapter discussed in some threads, but that is a different strory as discussed above where there are 2 lines/numbers (from 1 operator) on 1 sim.
Dual SIM adapters give you more flexibility and let you switch between SIMs by switching radio off/on. The ones that fit Himalaya are the King of Doublecard MAI-E (no cutting!) or any Ghost-SIM-adapter (need to cut both sims).
BTW One of the forum members is working on an app that lets you switch between the two SIM's in a dual-sim adapter via a today-plugin (also makes the active number visible!)
i also have 2 lines 1 sim from Globe, i use sim toolkit, but sometimes its doesnt automatically change you have to change to airplane mode and back again.
Hi there!
I'm just wondering if there's any of you guys know if there is a way to integrate 2 different GSM network lines in to 1 SIM card? I know that it's possible to have 2 different lines of the same network provider as it's been offered by most GSM networks nowadays.
You're inputs will be very much appreciated
Yes it`s possible, you can have up to 10 providers on 1 sim card BUT it works on telephones i don`t know about pocket pc`s.
1 you need special clean sim card (Silver card).
2 you need special device or people who has it (http://www.smartsim.ru/programmators.htm).
3 you need working sim card(s) of operators.
thats all.
My friend in Moscow has it. It has a telephone (t610).
Search for it over internet to buy.

what do you mean with 1 sim 2 network lines?
that you have 2 phone numbers on 1 simcard? so that you can receive on 1 phone 2 different phone numbers?
Hello,
I have a greem card, with 3 diferent numbers, that belong to diferents operators. The program is sim emulator and you need to have specific software and hardware. I bought to a guy in Portugal. Its very nice to call somebody, using the best price. Its not possible to have all the numbers receiving at the same time. Usually we have the main number and we have numbers from another operators to call more cheap for people that belong to operators diferent from the main number i have.
you can visit this site and learn ou ask how to do it:

tnx m8 I'm going to have look.
Does there need to be special software on the phone too?
In case of having two or more lines configured in a SIM card... Is there a way of switching programmatically between them? ... probably using TAPI?
Does anybody know if there is any software that enables us to switch between the two lines by menu and automatically forwards the line in between

Please let us know if it works
Thanks gogol. I did not mean dual sim adapter. I have only one sim card with two lines in it. When you use it in a Nokia for example, it pops up a new menu where you could switch between the lines without manually forward the passive line to the active one and put the phone off and then back on. It does not work on my new JASJAM. Every time I need to switch to the other line, first I need to forward my line 1 to line 2. Switch off the phone, and back on by using pin number of line 2, disable call forwarding of line 2 etc..
Do you know any application which does these things on WM5?
You mean something like Orange Line Two right? http://www2.orange.co.uk/servlet/Satellite?pagename=OUKPersonal/Service&cid=1096023563451
I don't think Windows Mobile PDA's support this feature.
Yes exactly the same service as Orange Line 2
After having difficulties connecting my old SX66 to the AT&T internet and many, many calls with Customer Service, and checking/rechecking my internet settings, I have learned that my old SIM card/account is the problem. I never migrated to either the Cingular or the new AT&T networks (I am still using the old [blue] AT&T SIM card). I was told in order to gain access to their internet again, I would need to migrate to the new system. This would mean a new device, since (I'm told) the new SIM cards will not work in the old devices.
Now, here are my questions... Is anyone still using an SX66, one of the old AT&T/Cingular network SIM cards, and *still* able to connect to the internet??? On the other hand, is there anyone currently using a new AT&T SIM card in a SX66 and are able to access the internet???
I really would like to gain access again, but would hate to have to buy new equipment, accessories, etc., in order to do it. Since, I'm finding that the Customer Service reps are famous for giving different answers (others kept telling me my device was corrupt, so I bought another used SX66, but still have the same problem), I want to check with everyone here.
Thanks so much for listening and responding.
Debbie
eheeh dont worry about the "new sim cards" there gonna work on your sx66 just flash it wth wm6 and your done ^^
hope it helps cheers mate
btw: are you selling your old sx66?? let me know
I'm not familiar with that particular device, but I can tell you that the old blue SIMs are still working fine, as well as mMode (the blue equivalent of MEdia Net). You probably just need to configure your device with the mMode settings:
APN: proxy (as opposed to wap.cingular)
Username and Password: (leave blank)
Also, the current SIMs should work fine in your device, as long as it is unlocked.
The Blue network uses mMode while the Orange/New Blue network uses MediaNet for GPRS access. The SIM card just points to the operator and both networks are still active. If you can not access gprs then it is likely a problem with your phone. Try the sim in a different phone.
* Of course there is an exception to the rule and that is when you initialize a new (replacement) SIM card (Yes, the old AT&T Wireless SIM's are still available on Ebay at a reasonable price) it resets the account in the system at The New at&t and will sometimes correct hard-to-detect problems.
I bought a Samsung Omnia i900v (Vodafone-branded) (WM6.1) and I want to use the internet with a Three (H3G) Sim. For some reason, I see the 3G icon when I put my sim in, and when I try to open Google or any website, it keeps says 'Locating' and never connects to the network. I already added a new modem connection for 3, with three.co.uk as the APN and nothing else set.
Are there any settings CAB files like there used to be in the WinMo days? It's been years since I've done this. There must be at least one person out there who knows how to get a WM6.1 phone working on 3?
Would it help to flash a WM6.5 ROM to the phone instead?
