Android 9 with ability to disable one of the sim cards - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I've installed lots of android ROMs primarily android pie, but I couldn't find any with the feature that I wanted: the ability to disable one of the sim cards so the phone won't consume much battery with always to sim cards activated when I only need the secondary sim occasionally.
Thank you very much for your help.
Cheers to all!

Dual Sim switch software

Hi,..
Is there any Dual-Sim switch software (today plug-in) available for WM5?
I've tried Wivit, but this doesn't want to install on my WM5. It looks like it is designed for WM2003se,..
So,.. anyone knows dual sim software to manage my both sim cards?
regards.

check that one
Ofcourse I tested [Update 6] Today plugin for dual sim holders, but this plug-in seems to hang my mda-pro. was not able to close any application, and after a short while the whole machine hanged. So I removed it.
To bad there isn't a stable application or today plug in to manage my both sim cards...

Hi all,...
I've experienced several problems with my dual sim holder when switching between sim cards.. Phoned up Multi-Mobile and explained the problems. They said they sent me a new dual sim holder (cut) with no extra charge. I only need to send back the old one.
Good Service!!!

Dual Sim problem

Ok, I have been browsing this forum for a solution to my problem and none seem too specific, at least for my BA wm6.
Here is the problem: I just received a dual sim adapter (the one that needs cutting) -both sims work fine. I can't get them to switch from one sim to the other from my phone. power on/off and flight mode won't do it either. I tried phone alarm, dual sim switcher, and wivit. They don't work for my phone. I also have a wm2003 se BA and tried it on there and I was only to get the dual sim to switch once. So now the dual sim is stuck on SIM2. So it doesn't matter which phone I use I can only use the sim that is on the SIM 2 slot! Blah!!
What I need: A program, or anything to switch my SIMs for my BA wm6. I don't want to keep taking out my sim and open the sim adapter and switch the two sims all the time.
Edit: after fooling around with my 2003se BA I managed to get the Dual Sim Manager to work again, and I noticed that despite switching SIMS, phone information alway display the default SIM. Does this mean that it is not switching? Does this mean that it does switch but the phone does not display it? If latter is the case then I am in big trouble! One SIM has unlimited internet and texting and other one is just a basic plan. Please help! I don't want a surprise bill!
Edit: Sorry, I needed an answer so I'm feverishly testing this crap out. And the answer is yes the sim changes but the phone does not display so. The trick I used is texting my account info and voila! Two different accounts! So, now over to my wm6 BA and check that out
I'm really surprised, that people are so patient to fight with such an uneffective and clumsy device as dual SIM adapter: you have to cut/destroy those SIM cards, then you have to pray that i works with your phone...
I really think, that if you really need to use 2 SIMcards, why not buying a 2nd phone, or just a special phone with 2 radios and for 2 SIMs.
And please don't tell me it's "for comfort" - dualSIM is antiComfort...
There are other solutions that you don't need to cut the sim, one that I have seen is the addapter is placed in the sim slot and the simm are part of the battery pack.
Bottom line is that that one sucks as well.
I feel there is a valid need in my line of work were I would need at least 3 laptops to support the Builds of my customers however VMWare gets me by fine.
As for the phone, I need 2, carry 2 and hate it.
So I would be a buyer if there was anything around worth having. (which as I still have a BA seems not the case).
Dual Sim Problem
Hi pharmeceutikle,
I wonder how this device works for BA at all!
I tried an adapter like yours of a friend of mine and it just doesn't work with my BA.After inserted, I don't see any new menu for it and when I restart the BA, it shows invalid sim message at startup. I have installed a WM6.1 ROM downloaded at this site [20749 (Build 20749.1.4.0 PV DVH) - v13] and my radio version is 1.12 (by the way, it was 1.15 but 1.12 is the only one that worked fine for my device). The same adapter, once installed on a Motorola phone of my friend works pretty fine! so, it's not a problem with the adapter, I guess...
Did you change anything on registry? could you please tell me how did you proceed since cutting the sims until you got it to work, please?
Many thanks!

This dual sim adapter only works if you have a working STK ROMs. I believe I used Helmi's original wm6 as one of them and then I went to others but I can't quite remember which. I posted an experiment with the all the ROMS I used awhile ago so just do a search under my name. Anyways, I couldn't get it to switch sims normally so I had to reset the damn thing all the time. I would go to the STK menu and choose either sim 1 or 2 and then quit out and then reset my phone for it to make the change which really is a pain. As soon as my second sim ran out I just tossed the infernal thing and stuck one sim per phone! Sorry couldn't be much more of a help.
Thanks
Thanks anyway I'll keep searching for a while.

Dual SIM: Use both SIMs and the SD Card

Hello guys,
I've been trying to ask this for everybody I know of.
I had the X Style previously, which supported Dual SIM + SD Card, and now I have the X Force (XT1580) which is Dual SIM.
My question is quite simple, as you can see in the photos, it seems there's a small space (just necessary for the SD's copper) left when we use both SIM Cards, is there a way to use both SIM cards and the SD Card?
I know there MIGHT be risks in trying/doing so, but has anybody ever seen someone trying? Did the person succeed?
Thank you very much.
some people on other dual sim phones tried it and it worked, its matter of sanding the sim card the thinnest you can
Just for reference, I've found the following URL regarding Galaxy S7, which seems to be the same (or almost) tray used by X Force https://www.noreplied.com/how-to-in...d-and-microsd-card-in-samsung-galaxy-s7-edge/

I updated to Pie, and now I can't use Dual SIM + SD Card

I have a Galaxy S8 Dual SM-G950FD and need the ability to have a microSD along with the two SIM cards, so I'd been using a SIM card extension for this.
I updated to Pie last weekend and now, if I try to turn on the phone with the two SIM cards and the microSD, I get an error and can't do anything unless I disconnect the second SIM.
Same thing happened to the Galaxy S9: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s9/help/dual-sim-card-sd-card-problem-t3809073
Obviously I think this is idiotic on Samsung's part, as the hardware itself is perfectly capable of running all three components, but it seems they won't change their mind about this, so I'm looking for a way around it.
Any of you know of a way to keep using two SIM cards and the microSD at the same time on Android Pie? Or am I gonna have to flash back to Oreo and just stay there. I'd like to keep my phone updated, but if there's not going to be a way to do it, I'd rather have the two SIMs and SD functioning, over the latest updates.
Thanks in advance!

Any current ROMs that offer switchable SIMs?

I'd like to know if they are any currently supported ROMs that offer the ability to enable/disable each SIM card independently? For instance, turn off SIM2 if I'm not at work? I've installed several ROMs already and none that I have tried offer this ability. Cheers.
