I'm looking for a dual sim adapter suitable for my touch cruise.
Any ideas?.
I saw this on the net, but it looks very expensive.

Simore seems the only one working, my old adapater good for qtek 9090 worked only the first day, after it stop working (I try also a hard reset but no luck). I can switch only after a soft reset. But Simore seems to drain a bit the battery (watch here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364884). Ciao.

kutonglupa, the initial site? The link is only to buy, more information? Thanks in advance.
yes i am looking for recommended dual sim adapters for the touch cruise too
Oh this would be good as I am in the US every week switching sims. I don't suppose it would let me access DATA off one sim and Phone services off the other eh?

Yeah! You nail it, but, something does'nt feel right on this site or am getting paranoid?
like i asked before, will any of the sim adapters, actually keep both sims active at all times or this isnt possible ?
If not, which one of that m99 site will work for polaris?
This isn't possible. Only dual-sim phones can do that because they have two receivers integrated.
I don't know which one will work. I can only say that if you want to use UMTS you have to buy an analogue adapter. Afaik digital adapters can work with an UMTS-Sim but they can't use the UMTS features like HSDPA. So you can use the UMTS-Sim in GSM-Mode only.
Hello,
I have a Black 1 SIMORE v6.0 on my HTC cruise. It's works perfectly in edge and 3G mode.
With Radio ROM original, i have problem with 3G network, the network disconnect after 5 seconds, but after upgrade to the last ROM radio, it's OK.
There is an automatic permute function, like 10 minutes on my edge network, and 5 minutes on 3G network. Work good, it take less than 15 seconds to change , but if you are on call , it's disconnect you and change the network if the 10 or 5 minutes expires.....
But It's OK for me , i swap only to check my voicemail or sms and permute directly to my principal network.
I don't know about battery life but i have only one phone in my pocket and it's the only one solution i found for that
To Greg_o: can you please confirm if you can use HSDPA with the simore adapter? I am thinking to get one as well. Thanks.
HSDPA is activate in my options... I can tell you more in 4 days, my new 3G options ( TV ,visio , internet etc..) will be activate ... but, how i can see that HSDPA is working ? i already have the 3G on the bar level reception.
The easiest way would be to do a speedtest. I would suggest to use the test used in this topic so we can easily compare.
If your speed is high enough -> it could be only HSDPA.
my results without SIMORE :

I cut my SIM this week and post my result with SIMORE after
I now use a Datopal 6th Generation Dualsim Cut Adapter. It's an analogue one. Things seem to work fine so far. Tried with T-Mobile and HSDPA works (speed was only 440kbit/s, but that's what I got before I used Dualsim also). To be sure I only activated the UMTS frequencies in the settings, so it should really work.
There are only some problems when it comes to show the right distributor of my simcard. I don't have problems, when I use different networks. Only when I use the same network (one sim is directly from the network distributor and one is from a reseller who uses the same network) the display didn't change the provider name. So without a third party tool I'm unable to say which card is active. I used SimDisplay to get rid of this problem, but I'm sure that there are enough alternatives.
Main positive aspect of the dual sim is the low cost of 6$ per unit (including shipping). The card was directly imported from Hongkong, so delivery time was about a week (I paid with credit card).
It really depends on the network and SIM card type.
Here (france) I have an Orange and one SFR USIM cards, I can't do any 3G on it.
In fact, I can log on to the 3G network but when I try to make a call, network is downgraded to GSM.
Video-call don't work (that's the real test for 3G connectivity, calling your video answering machine).
I'm now thinking into buying an analogue dual sim adapter, to prevent any more meddling than a mere switch between the SIM card and the phone.
Anyone know of any dual sim card adapter that works in UK - 3 network?

well i ordered those dual sim adapters there - and guess what - i got the wrong ones. so its not the best idea to get those things there.
i tried to call them but the number is not working ...
Anyone tried this one? Selles says it will work for cruise: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=160263857295
Same guy is selling another version, with a picture of a diamond using this dual sim adapter. (photoshop or real? don't know yet)
I've ordered one, will post my result when I recieve it. May take a week or so.
I have tried this one, which is for "all phones": http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=250267107670
didn't work good. The STK menu came up, but the phone freezes everytime I try to change number. It ask for pin, then hangs. (and my dads sony ericsson slows down when this is inserted.. is this normal?)
Does enyone try some dualsim adapter?
I have WM6.1 and i would like to use two sims in my device (not at the same time).
Can enyone recomend some adapter? i dont mind cutting the sim. Im just looking for some 100% working solution.
Thank you for reply.
u may wanna try any of this

thank you for rwply, i was checking some web pages, and what i found out is, that i neews clasic analog dual adapter - the digitals use too much battery.
i checket most of the adapters on ebay, but they all are digital :-(
I am tired of having two mobile phones in my pocket: my brand new TD2 (private use) and my Nokia 6020 (business use).
So I would like to use my TD2 for private and work.
Does anybody know if there is a working Dual Sim Adapter for the TD2?
I tried one (no clue which brand or version, its marked with YANG - 16 - A) but it doesn't work:
First of all it does not realy fit under the back cover, it's a non-cut version.
It adds a STK menu to the TD2 but I have no clue how to use it.
The first sim works fine, but the second sim is not recognized, and does not work.
A little bump up
Maybe this one fits... I don't know (I need to wait a few more days before I get the diamond ).

I was just thinking the same thing. This is my first WM device but I have carried two phone for years now.
I have started another thread in the General section going into more detail, although I think none of it is possible.

Sorry, was in the process of writing is I posted here - took me a while to finish, and you beat me to the punch - anyhow link above
something new in dualsim theme?
Kick - Anyone?
Still no suitable solution found.
I tried a non-cut dual sim version, but it did not fit and it did not function and in the end, i accidentally tore it apart....
So, anybody experience with a cut version?
Especially whit being online with both numbers at the same time
Your "2 cents" please!
I am after the same, but the only one clearly advertised as tested and working with TD2 is Simore Platinum.
not allowed to provide link to simore.eu
At 70 euros it's far too expensive to justify at the moment, especially as we still only have their word for it.
Apparently as phones only have one transmitter/receiver it is not possible to receive calls from 2x active Sims. Their workaround is to have an automatic setting where the SIMS auto-switch, so you can get notified of any missed calls, or SMSes. In reality the workaround for dual lines is to auto-divert the calls for the unused sim to the active one, leaving the auto-switch to pick up SMS from the other SIM to a schedule.
OK, I thought I'd give some cheaper versions a go from freeyourmobile.biz
Magicsim Ghost Dual SIM Card (Non-Cut)
Magicsim DIGITAL Dual SIM (Cut)
I've only tried the Ghost and it works fine on O2 Sims, but with some caveats:-
1. The Sim holder folds around the battery, and I can just about get the case to clip on with a bit of a band/gap on one side/edge. For me this is OK because the TD2 slides into my Proporta Aluminium flip-case, so you don't notice.
2. It doesn't seem to support 3G/HSPDA data, I can only get Edge, but this isn't too much of a problem for me, as I only use data to periodically check email.
3. Everytime you switch SIMS it takes around 30 seconds to re-register, and this includes a pop-up that asks me to select a Network Carrier, and wait for a configuration process to complete. This happens every time you switch SIMS, no matter how many times.
4. No instructions for auto-switching, but a google should sort that.
As I'm happy for now, and don't want to start cutting up SIM-cards, I haven't tested the DIGITAL, but I suspect it wil be the same as it's the same manufacturer.
UPDATE 1: I had a replacement/spare battery from ebay, which was slightly thicker, the original HTC stock battery allows the case to clip on with only a very slight gap
UPDATE 2: Definitely works fine 'with' 3G Sims, but no support for 3G/HSPDA Data transfer. As I said, not a big deal for me personally.
UPDATE 3: There is a setting in Connections Setup to disable Auto-Configuration, which removes this annoyance as both my SIMS are O2. Not sure if you'd get away with this from 2x SIMS from different networks
UPDATE 4: Auto-Switching is only 0-9 minutes global switch. The info on the web suggests there is supposed to be an advanced mode that allows more functionality, but might be issue with this phone or OS, as to why this isn't available. STK mode only appears in menu. Still, what I've done is associate this STK program with holding down the 'call' button, so easy to switch SIMS quickly and easily now.

IMHO -
1. Only cut version adaptor will work, as thr s no space fr 2 non cut SIMS
2. No one can gaurantee 100% working adaptor, as it is dependent on how well SIMS r cut n thn avoiding loose connections
3. Circuit of SIMS - Different operators (countries) use diff config fr SIMS n hence difficult to say which SIMS will work n whthr 3g/HSDPA will work fr every SIM
4. Both SIMS numbers cannot be online together, since Radio s designed to receive only signal thru 1 SIM - workarnd can be frwrdng calls frm SIM 2 to SIM 1, while SIM 1 s online and vice versa
5. Concept is 100% workable - i m using Dual SIM Adaptor (costing arnd $3) fr last 1 month n its works like a charm with GPRS, Edge, 3G as well as HSDPA connections

Hi,
has anyone successfully used a dual sim adapter with the LG E900 Optimus 7 ?
I am looking to buy this phone but need the dual sim.
thanks for your help and replies.
Yea i've used one of these before with a MagicSim 28th gen cut.
R
I'm very interested on the matter, could you please let me know how you can switch from one sim to the other with the LG Optimus 7.
Do you have a dedicated WP7 application to install or the phone automatically detects the dual sim adapter?
Please let me know.
Thanks.
hjkl;' why no delete?
Send me a PM and i'll point you to where i get mine from.
Having a lot of private messages asking where i get it from so i'll put it here.
"directdevices" on ebay. The cutting version isn't listed but if you message them they have them in stock
Hope this helps everyone!
Can you tell me please, how you switch between the sim cards. Because I have the Magicsim 28th but I can't switch between the SIM cards.
Thank you
Have you found the stk (sim tool kit) menu?
No i didn't find the STK menu.
I thought Windows Phone 7 don't has a STK ?
What's the deal with this? Looking for a dual sim adapter for my girlfriend who has this phone.
Did it work out ok?
I can confirm that the Magicsim 28th gen PLUS works on this phone for anyone thats interested.
Got it from www.magic-sim.com
I've had 2 off them now for a couple of different phones and i'm dead pleased.

Hi I got the Adapter for my HD7 Pro and i cant find the stk menu.
Can anybody tell me where it is, or tell me how to change the sim.
I requestet support from the vendor but they say if i cant find the stk, i should have to change to android ?! wtf
Please help
They may be right....what firmware you running?
I run the firmwareversion: 2250.21.30201.207
an mango: 7.10.7720.68
Yea I'd guess they're probably right. From my understanding some newer windows versions have stopped supporting stk.
Your best bet is getting over to android as it works real well on my setup. I'm on 2.3.5 if that helps?
Good luck.
OK, i think i try another Adapter, this time a analog one, maybe this works
Thank you for your fast support
No probs... Although I'd be aware that no dual sim adapter will work without an stk menu. So your only real option is to change firmware if you want dual sim capabilities.
Does anyone think there's a chance this tablet has a modem in to that can be enabled by porting over parts of a dump from one of the cellular versions? Long shot but not use to wifi tablets even having the pins for sim card.
i don't think so, if it has been designed to be working without a sim, there's a reason for it. the only way would be to replace the entire motherboard with the t975/t976 version, so you might as well buy the sim version.

Oh I get it, this is just the first wifi only tablet I've had, that HAS the pins for a sim card, I'm not taking it apart, but since it has a 865+ it would be insanely easy if there's a teardown to tell if it has the hardware, since the modem is now a separate chip with this snapdragon, granted you would need to decan the motherboard to do so,
Samsung used the same SIM/SD Card combo tray for all S7/S7 + models.
You'll notice the filler piece on the opposite side of the SD Card side is shaped like a Nano SIM..
The filler is removable and is marked under the black sticker as a SIM slot.
That said, I doubt Samsung is going to include the radio package in a disabled state on a Wi-Fi only model.
The one teardown video I could find of a Wi-Fi only model S7 did not show any cellular radio antennas. I can only see Wi-Fi leads. Definitely do not see any 5G antennas.
