I always got updates bas quick as Essential released them.
June Telus listed the PH1 as EOL (end of life) and pulled all products from their store.
Now I have yet to receive the July update. Anyone else?
Is this how Telus decides to do things? As soon as a device is EOL ignore it and pull out the "we have to run extensive tests to make sure the manufacturer's update is compatible with our network and systems" excuse to hold up updates (ie, ignore the device) to get you to "upgrade".

Pull out the SIM, restart, and check for an update. You should get the update direct from Essential. I use a Telus device, albeit with Bell and everything has been smooth sailing when it comes to updates.
As for the carriers in Canada I think we can all agree that their best name is Robellus.
Already tried that.
I suppose it will show eventually.

The same here, no July updates on stock 8.1 / Koodo. Makes me think to ask for refund
So your phones are not unlocked eg they are locked to a carrier?
All Canadian phones are unlocked.
Telus was the only carrier (and it's subbrand Koodoo) that sold the Essential so Essential lets them handle the updates.
Usually, in Canada, when you place a sim card in it is "provisioned" for that carrier. The updates are then handled by that carrier.
For example, my HTC U11+ (a phone not carried by Telus) needs to he on Wifi to get an update notification.
Hence the "take the sim card out" suggestion.

Put in a sim from another carrier to get the update. I have a chatter sim I use for the purpose.
I know we did the Sim swap thing on Motorola devices and it worked fine.
Well that would work if I had a sim from another carrier!
Might be worth buying a prepaid sim for that purpose though.

You don't need an active SIM, just any other SIM.
That's what most people do.
Finally got "P' pushed by Koodo today. 1047M update to .091 build.

You can't.
You can call Sprint and they can unlock it for you or you can purchase an already unlocked phone.
YES Sprint phones ARE international CAPABLE but have a CDMA CARD. Get it unlocked through SPRINT.
The carrier must unlock your SIM to have GSM capabilities. Period.
There's no magical code, no night gnome who can give you international capabilities, there is no work around. Your card defines your capabilities.
Glad we got that cleared up. Lets stop asking now, shall we? Please?

This is wrong. You can. Just won't work on AT&T and T-Mobile USA. Every other SIM(international) is unlocked for use as long as the SIM slot itself is unlocked.

If that was the case more people would be saying "Go into settings and unlock UICC and bam all set international."
The very first releases from Samsung to Sprint - like mine - were actually international, however most of the employees scooped the oops devices. Those purchased at Best Buy still have intermittent unlocked devices 1:20). In the chance you got lucky then NO we don't need to unlock it but yes, for 90% of the S IV population yes, unfortunately there's a very good chance we do. If this was the case the threads would have ceased to continue resurfacing.
So either tell the people so they stop asking or continue ignoring them.

after 90 days Sprint unlocks them when you ask the international department. My phone came sim locked. Had the invalid sim error and everything. It was then unlocked. I have had multiple GS4's unlocked. No more sim error. International sims confirmed working.
the issue is that not everyone asking has waited 90 days. There's a good number of people that have this phone and are't even using Sprint as their carrier. This is where most of the questions and confusion comes from.. those two groups. Then there are the last two groups... those who have been but (incorrectly flagged as unlocked but no true unlock was performed OTA... and those who are just like me that have unlocked and used the device overseas.
Since there's not a ton of Sprint users that have used their device overseas... after waiting 90 days... and being unlocked properly OTA... we arent seeing lots of posts about success... but they exist. Also, you aren't accounting for when the device's unlock method goes public and Sprint is no longer needed. That's the real goal behind all of the unlock questions. How can the phone be hacked to bypass the sim lock. Then everyone can unlock at their own free will. Then the next project will come... getting the unlocked GS4s working on ATT/TMO(something I've already started working on). If you've been paying attention to the HTC forums.. they have just figured out unlock method without needing Sprints help. This was after 80+ pages of people saying it wasnt possible and failed attempts.
You mention Best Buy devices... is there something in the system not allowing anyone that purchased a phone there to not be unlocked? You mention a first batch of phones maybe working... but my most recent GS4 is 2 weeks old.. so surely thats not from the first batch... yet still unlockable.
@autoprime
so if I want to check if my phone came unlocked as you say one of your many gs4's did. All I would have to do would be to buy an international sim from eBay, or amazon if available and pop it in. Then if I don't get the sim error notification, I am unlocked?

none of my phones came unlocked out of the box. they were all unlocked after. then tested with GSM sims... unlock confirmed working. That was my point in responding in this thread... so people knew an unlock was possible.. despite what the OP suggests.
you can use any non-sprint sim card to test if you are unlocked... even AT&T or Tmobile. If you are unlocked.. you wont get a sim card error after booting up with the new sim in. if you get the error, youre not unlocked.
I currently have Verizon and I'm thinking of switching to At&T and getting the Oneplus 2. I'm kind of disappointed in the battery life and the lack of NFC so I'm on the fence. But if I switch to AT&T and get say the Galaxy Note 5 when it comes out and then purchase a Oneplus 2. Could use both phones just by swapping the sim card back and forth? I always see articles on phone review websites with the author saying he uses one phone as a daily driver and another phone for other things. I'd love to have two phones and just switch back and forth but all with one number.
Thanks

Yes, you should be able to switch sim cards between phones with no issues. Be sure to check the apn in settings to reflect att network.
Be advised, that att will charge some "new" contract fees for new customers starting August 1st. Not sure what the new fees are specifically but I've heard it will be the most expensive thus far in the US.
Good luck.

Thanks yea I read that yesterday I think it's $45. I'm ok with that, it's not as bad as Verizon making you pay 75% of the retail price of a phone and hand it in to them in order to upgrade in the lease plan. I have the Note 4 and it was $700 retail and they want $524 in order for me to upgrade. I might has well pay the full $700 and keep the phone and sell it than pay $524 and give it back to them.
I'm on AT&T and have had no issue swapping the SIM to use multiple phones.

I'm on ATT and have the OnePlus Two - they do not currently support it on LTE/4G network so data is slooooooow

Read one review that said you can't use Dual SIM in the USA right now? Anyone know if that's true and an ETA/or if It'll eventually come? Can't use my 7Pro with Dual Sim because my work verizon account won't let me switch to "CDMA Less" so when I saw the 8Pro supports CDMA I was excited.........then I read that.
Anyone have any more info?

I'm wondering the same thing. I want to order the unlocked OP8 pro from OP's website tomorrow but if the dual sim is disabled, there's no way to know when they are going to update it to enable dual sim. I want to dual sim out of the box, otherwise it's useless for me. My OP7 currently has two sims in it.
If you buy the carrier versions of this then no you will not have dual SIM, however if you get the unlocked version from OP themselves then you will be able to use dual SIM. Or at least this is how all previous versions have worked. Only caveat I would think is if you are a Verizon customer as I think they need the specific Verizon version.

I am on Verizon but if I wanted 5G, then I need to get the 5G VZW UWB version, is that right? But the only caveat is that they don't offer the Pro with VWZ 5G and only the standard OP8?
My understanding, and maybe I am mistaken, that the pro also comes in that version for Verizon.

Straight from OnePlus support today:
"as the device is just out and the first software update/OTA is yet to be released, it is recommended to wait for it rather than doing a reset to the device as the system itself says that it will be fixed on the upcoming update and you can change from single to dual."
Already RMA'ing it up and sending back. When/if it's ever enabled I'll give it another shot.
Borderline deceptive advertising IMHO.

Pretty bummed out. I also ordered directly from OP. My T-Mobile (home) sim is in the first slot, and my work (AT&T) is in the second. I thought it must've been a mistake when I first saw the error, as I've used OnePlus phones ever since the OP5T and haven't seen this *not* work one day 1.
Bummed here too. Got mine today and was looking fwd to popping work and personal SIMs in but SIM2 is a no go. DM'd OP support on Twitter and was told it should work out of the box. I directed them to this thread and screenshots from my device. Crickets.....

I'm seeing in other threads that others seem to have it working (UK users, at least). Have you heard anything back from OP yet? I wonder if removing the second sim and putting it back will trigger something
The response I got was that they, "found that there is an issue with the Dual SIM." and "The team said they will roll out an update which would fix this issue." No ETA given and I didn't respond. I ended up listing and selling my OP8P on Swappa.
ARGH, hope they fix this soon so I can pull the trigger and buy one! Course until then my OP7P will work
Only response I've been able to get from OnePlus is:
This is to inform you that as of now we do not any official information regarding this. We request you to stay tuned to our social media channels for future updates.

I really how no idea what you are talking about. All my OP phones, as far back as the OP3 my son has, has been dual sim. I had zero issue on my last four phones... (five, counting the Axon 7 I had), then this one comes along and it doesn't work. The only thing I can think of is something changed with the switch to 5G.

Deceptive advertising? More like your inability to read. It says on the website that dual sim will be enabled in a future update.
Can we flash an US version with the UK ROM?
Grrrrrrrr. I was really hoping yesterday's update (10.5.6) would've fixed the dual SIM issue, but no. It hasn't. It'll show VoWifi for a sec, then switch back to VoLTE.
At least MMS seems to be working with wifi on. That was broken until this update.
I'm in Germany and I can use dual SIM, but not with 5G enabled. Oneplus is still working on the software on multiple fronts and the US seems to be behind, see screenshot:
I got a notification that the new version is available, did anyone already update to the new version? Is the Dual SIM now working?

Well at release they said "soon", then they said by the end of June, then July, then "first of august". Now not until A11 I guess because it does work in there....but at this point I expect them to disable it on NA version too just because.
No, not waiting anymore.

I'm really disappointed with this and I've been waiting. I'm either going to get a different dual sim phone or wait for A11 to come out. Waiting a few weeks after release is fine but not 6 to 8 months, which they already going to come out with a new model.
As far as I know, only DP3 in the US supports Dual SIMs. I'm using a VZW and my work TMO SIMs working fine.

I have been struggling from the begining of this issue now day 106 -- lol My views is that this is a political issue not a tech one. It is becoming very obvious to me that OP has no intention of correcting this and since every other variant is dual sim it leads me to believe this is because north american carriers do not like or support dual sim phones. OP is trying to break into the partnership game and I'm sure T-Mobile dictated the terms and removing dual sim was likely one of them. The other very disappointing thing is that OP has become strictly regional and will not sell other variants out of your region and going to places like amazon is the only option. Here is the thing if you have repair issues support will not touch your phone and offer a replacement for your sales area only. I had a 2023 and it needed fixing. I sent it to OP and the only solution they would come up with was to replace it with a 2025 so I,m back to square one, no pun intended, I now have 2 2025 and one still in the unopened box and both are for sale with a xperia 1 on it's way from hong kong. I have had 7 OP handsets and was right in there from the startup but I'm gone. The regionalization of OP has taken them into the area where there is no room for the small group who want that raw and pure unbranded phone, easy to root and a good international tool. My advise to anyone considering OP, especially in north america is to go somewhere else if you are looking for a true international phone. Their support will not help you if it needs fixing if you purchased a "world phone" variant. Maybe a class action suit would be in order but this group of disgruntled users is likely too small. Damn !!!!!!!

Next time - there is something called paragraphs - try them.
IT'S TRUE!! For you lucky t-mobile customers rocking the Galaxy Note20 Ultra (SM-N986U) you now have this really kool feature on your handset, as this upgrade came included with your March Security Patch Update!
Tutorials | T-Mobile Support
CONGRATULATIONS!
For the factory unlocked users SM-N986U1 as me, we too can obtain these features our brethren received I suppose, if we're willing to flash the SM-N986U build, N986USQU2DUC8 using modded-odin 3.13.3b, all-the-while not forgetting to back-up everything we have as this task involves a data wipe in advance of a clean flash. Also, when dragging & dropping your files in preparation, remember to use CSC, instead of HOME CSC, for this task. Afterwards, we'll gain this upgraded feature due to the fact we temporarily but effectively morphed our devices into the carrier-bound equivalent or SM-N986U for all intents and purposes! We can always revert back to our "old selves" , as we haven't done anything permanent here!
When done properly, this task causes no harm to your handset, whatsoever. If you're inexperienced with flashing firmware utilizing Odin, get someone to assist you, and help
walk- you-through the steps.Don't go it alone if you're unsure. Help is on the way, just ask!
I'm putting this on my weekend to-do list, as it's unlikely this feature will find it's way to the unlocked variant, frequented by us "Rogue" wireless users! Sure, you'll pick-up a little carrier bloat, maybe a half-a-dozen apps in the switch, but that's it!? That's the only downside I see, in addition to the obvious time inconvenience a data-wipe always brings!
It's a bold move, but a smart one, for T-mobile! When you pair that one with their recent commitment to Google for integrating the Google Messages app into their (Android-based)) system app line-up for new device offerings. They recognize the value of the upgrade to RCS messaging and what comes with that, for existing and new tmobile customers alike.
Sure, It'd be easier if this e-sim/dual sim feature was included in the SM-N986U1 OTA March Security Patch Update for the unlocked users, but their heart is in the right place and always with their core users (SM-N986U) I suppose?
Safe Journeys, and everyone remember to stay covid-19 Safe!
(I'll check back in with this thread, afterwards)!
Hopefully esim will come to us unlocked folks...
Indeed...I wish tmobile would become inspired to share the love with us! It could happen down the road, I guess? It does explain somewhat why it took them so long to rollout the OTA's the past few months. We're on April already, and some of the carrier-bound folks were still on January until this release!
I converted my TMU Note 20 Ultra to eSIM and it works fine. I took out my old SIM as it is disabled by the conversion process. Don't have another SIM to test but it looks like you can use physical SIM in addition to eSIM. From what I can tell, you can add unlimited number of eSIM to it.
Correct. eSIM support is carrier dependent as well as device brand/model. The carrier support must come first then the carrier's devices will eventually get eSIM support. Verizon has a few devices that supports eSIM however most of their phones don't offer eSIM. However, Spectrum Mobile (uses Verizon network) doesn't support eSIM on any device at this time. So don't expect OTA's to include eSIM support until your specific carrier fully supports it. This is why the unlocked devices will likely not see eSIM support for a while; at least not until all U.S. carriers fully support it beyond iPhones.

Anyone got a clue what screen in recovery I'm speaking of...your hooked up USB to desktop I was using patchd-modded ver. 3.14.1B or.3.14.3B newer than my usual 3.13.3B I used on my SM-N960UI n9u1 a few handsets back.
Anyway, tap to bootloader, then it kicks up this screen that asks boot to FRRP?(maybe) and also boot to QSSI?, Other choices were START(which just brings you back to the familiar recovery screen, POWER OFF, and I think that was it!! Odin was locked & loaded, was connected through a com port, etc, just wasn't able to get my handset to say "OK I'm ready Odin, HIT ME? So now,.I'm in worse shape, still on U1 f/ware and in the midst of re-adding in everything back on due to the data wipe (which I wont) cuz I'm hoping one of my trusted comrades is gonna "hook this ole' white boy up" and coach me on what I'm missing here with this "noob shi#" "beginners for sinners" embarrassing momentI had this early am?!smh Ive flashed so many times over on Discords SamCentral,.the one I'm banned from now for almost a yr.now(thanks Max W.) I had a how-to guide under pinned posts on flashing with Odin...I called it "birdman's How-To guide, to Flashing Successfully On Every Occasion."
An Easy, Step-by-step Guide To a Successful Flashing Session, Guaranteed to NOT land you in jail!! (right hand to God, on that one)!
Thanks for playing...if anyone can think of something I missed or what choice to make on that new bootloader Menu screen, hook me Up!

Do you still have 5G band, with that f'n kool "5G" icon in the upper right?!

Yes, 5G is still there. I don't see anything else different than the physical SIM.
I've got a T-Mobile SIM in a U1 Note 20 Ultra. The u1 is an international version, running a T-Mobile SIM & software.
After checking every day, I just got the Android 12 OTA on January 17. Easy update, all of my data and settings remain, and I got dual SIM, which I have been waiting for over seven months.
I know the U version has had the feature for a while, but I didn't. Happy finally.
