I'm in Japan so only 3G will work here, I intend to have 2x 3G sims in the phone, one local sim and one sim I will only switch to as I will be roaming it for SMS for one time passwords etc.,
so sim1/sim2 on/off is fine. (I don't want to keep ejecting sims and loosing one.)
I noticed a lot of these dual sim phones are only 3G in slot1 but not slot2
i.e. "Samsung Grand Duos GT-I9082". HTC/Sony/LG dual sim phones.
I know "Samsung Core Duos GT-I8260" can select 3G in slot 1/2
So how about the "Samsung Wins/Grand Quattro GT- I8552"? If owners could let me know thanks.
The Samsung website/manuals don't really have much info on this.
Thanks.
yes you can use 3g on both slots but you cannot choose both 3g at the same time. only one at a time.

Thanks, that's all I wanted to confirm!
Not here in Brasil. I have 3G only in slot 1. Anyone else?

My friend .. works in 2 slots ...
For the function of 3G SIM 1
Configuration Management> SIM card> Network Data Service> SIM1
To use the SIM 1: Settings> More Settings> Mobile networks \ SIM1> Band Selection> WCDMA Only. 3G
To use the SIM 2: Settings> More Settings> Mobile networks \ SIM2> Band Selection> GSM only. 2G
To function in 3G SIM 2
Configuration Management> SIM card> Network Data Service> SIM2
To use the SIM 2: Settings> More Settings> Mobile networks \ SIM2> Band Selection> WCDMA Only. 3G
To use the SIM 1: Settings> More Settings> Mobile networks \ SIM1> Band Selection> GSM only. 2G
As already mentioned does not work 2 Slots as 3G, is a 3G and 2G in another ...
Qaundo for use both always have to switch, as the steps above.
Good luck friend!
thanks

Do you know about any aap that could switch for sim 1 from sim 2 for 3G on time that is specified to it, and then switches back to sim 2 for 3G after that specified time goes by?
While both sims slot works on 3G but one at a time..

I tried several another sim cards like Airtel,Vodafone,Docomo,Idea etc..still no use.

sir
please tell me how to add mobile number on sim?
i have a problem about my 2nd sim. i have two sim card and both are belong to the same network carrier. 4g indication is only shown on 1st sim card. when i turn the prefered data sim card to 2nd sim, 2nd sim always on 2g connection even lte is prefered. i swaped the sim cards and 2nd sim still shows 2g conncetion, so the problem is not about sim cards or carrier.i checked that when i put the cellular network to manual mode instead of automatic and data is selected sim 1, 4g networks appear in the search list. when the sim card 2 is selected as data and search for network, only 2g networks appear in the list.
sim 1 4G sim 2 2G OK
sim 1 2G sim 2 4G Not OK. both sims work on 2G (or sim 1 is 3G, i can not see any indication on top )
i checked the *#*#4636#*#* testing mode and both prefered network types are selected the same "td-scdma, gsm/wcdma and LTE"
when i bought the mobile phone, i had not got such a problem like this. i made imei repair operation and my phone works like this after imei repairing. i also test my imei numbers on both sims and still the same.
What is the rom version you are having now?

I have exactly the same problem! I had bought the phone from a chinese vendor and I hade 3G only in SIM1 and 4G in SIM2 . I used a guide and flashed a global qcn and restored the IMEI cause it was lost and after that I face the exact same problems as Salagil
Hi, I used To use Hidden settings for miui to force 4G and it works very well but only in sim 1. Is there any way or app to force 4G in sim 2? I have an SD in slot 1, so I'm looking to make it work in SIM 2.
I don't know if u tried this or not ......but.....Dial *#*#4636#*#* wt 2-3 sec...screen appears showing "testing" go to the phone information 2 (that's Ur sim 2) change ..'set preferred network type' to LTE only ....
