Show which SIM card has received sms

Hi there,
I'm developing a simple sms application working on DUAL SIM phone with MTK SDK. I'm trying to read sms from device but I don't find any solution to know (and show) which SIM card has received sms.
Into sms record nothing appear about SIM ID o similar. I can read one or more sms but i don't find a solution to show their sim id/imsi.
I've seen in some mtk dual phone that sms app can show which sim has received message, so I suppose method exists.
Any idea?!

[SM-G935FD] [Dual-SIM] Contacts Sim1 or Sim2?

anyone know if there is any way to assign a contact to use a particular Sim with out switching using the Sim manager, when yo dial a number you get the option to select the Sim to use but the contact seem to only use the selected Sim ATM i hang up and you can the redial and select the Sim ( i have my home Sim and works Sim in the phone )
I have tried Samsung but the are unhelpful as i am using the phone in the UK and its not supported in this region,
If anyone in a region where the dual Sim version is supported has 5 mins to chat to samsung via there web chat can ask the question if there is any way to set a contact to dial using sim1 and another contact to use sim2 the ask them to request the feature be added via there dev team it may get added or i may just have to go back to LG as they have better call control..
thanks in advance

Hi,
I also have a G935FD and indeed, you're right I haven't found anything to be able to choose from which sim card you want to call when calling via contacts. It works only when you dial from the touchpad...
Complaining at Samsung might help to implement that process in the upcoming updates.

thanks but i would still have to change the default every time i called a contact
Just found a new option that will allow you to select "Always Ask" its not perfect but it helps

This is exactly what I found bit annoying, you couldn't set preference per number as which SIM to use out of the box (by not using any app.. just plain OS based solution), I couldn't find any. Tried asking on this & other forums. http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/sgs7-changes-marshmallow-t3353208
On the play store, found couple of paid apps that were doing the job, but one of them was not working on v6.0.1 (app creator was still in process of upgrading app to work on MM v6.0.1), another app gives you 7 days of free usage but costed £5 after that. I also tried to create a solution using Tasker, but it required a plugin which was first app that I mentioned was still under upgrade.
Frustrated with these problems, I decided to take control myself & now I'm in the process of developing an app that will exactly address the number-SIM preference. I found that Android has exposed a multi SIM API in version 5.1, but it's so poorly documented that I got really really angry about lack of information. Somehow I managed to build a workable copy of app. In this app you can specify rules based on Regular Expression number matching as which SIM to use if the dialed number matches regular expression specified. There is also an auto learning feature, where it will remember SIM for a number to dial.
As I said, I'm still in the process of developing this app, it's not professionally perfect but definitely does the job for now.. (It takes lot of time as I'm not an app developer & devoting time is a problem ), there are many features I want to implement in this app, but let's see when I find time. It's working perfectly on my S7E dual sim (I can't guarantee that it will work on any other device - although it should as app is built using androind 5.1 API -- I haven't tested on any other device).
If you need a copy of APK, do PM me & I'll send you one.. I've also posted same message here.
i will be interested to see the final version, ask always is working as a temporary fix.
preferred sim not working
for me if i click on a contact to call someone then it asks call from sim1 or sim 2 but i already chooses sim2 as preference. if i use swipe it is going from sim 2.

Can I downgrade on B10 A2017G on MM with universal bootloader 7.11 ?

changing the calling app

Hi
I have a snap dragon version scv33 from AU japan.
I now moved back to Australia.
It is in version 8.0.
When I want to make calls it asks me if i am calling to japan or roaming country.
If i select japan is puts +81 automatically and of course phone fails.
If i choose roaming country it just says enter area code i.e. +61
Issue is i have to change all contacts to be +61
If i do this then when i sms it fails.
So if i type persons number normally e.g. 0423 it can send sms.
When they reply it puts the reply under the separate conversation of +61 saved in contacts and replying in that conversation fails.
Is there a way i can flash the calling app with another countries app that does not have this assisted calling locked.
I have checked call settings in call menu but it`S hidden so i cannot disable it.
On my s9+ it has the roaming assistance option and it`s not hidden and I can turn on off.
Thanks alot
no one knows how to replace the callIng app?

unistal the update of messanger in your watch. Last update need to connected to the phone otherwise will not send SMS
Anyone knows how to install esim profile with vodafone onenumber in ticwatch pro outside UK, Germany and Spain? In Portgual, the option " Connection settings" is not avilable...
