I have two phones (one work, one persoanl), two networks, and probably two sterile testicles from having them both in my pockets.
I have to get rid of my razr and just use my TYTN for both.
I've seen products like in the links below but they look sketchy and was hoping someone can shed some light on this for me... here are the links:

In the perfect world i would get my internet services from one of the numbers (work pays), have both numbers ring and receive text messages and be able to choose which number is displayed. Am i smoking too much? is this possible? Thanks in advance for any help.
I tried asking for the same thing a few months back.
Let just say that I can't seem to find any solution and this does not seem possible at all right now.
What you can best hope to achieve is that you can have 2 sims in the phone and soft switch them as far as my understanding goes.
I was really hoping for one of those DUAL SIM DUAL PHONE China Brand X phone which truly functions as a phone with 2 sims.
hi, im using dual sim holder plus today sim switcher application. it allows to have two sims in your tytn and switch them from today screen. only one sim can be active at a time but by setting your redarections up you will never miss a call seriously very usefull thing just lost 4 sims triming my sims
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 :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2082686&postcount=67
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?)
Hello everybody,
I am living in Japan and I was tired from my old Sharp smartphone with Android. I fall in love with the Lumia 920 and after many internet research and check that says there is no problem,I decided to buy one. I bought it on Amazon from a company in Hong Kong and the phone comes from Australia.
My provider is Softbank. In order to have LTE, is subscribe to a new Iphone 5 that my wife should use later. But when I put the nano SIM of the Iphone to the Lumia I could not get it working. I have at beginning no signal, when I then set the connection speed from 4G to 3G I get softbank signals but then no data connection.
I also went to (some) Softbank shops, and everytime the staffs told me it's not a Softbank device so it's not working....but I can hardly believe that they lock the SIM for Softbank's devices...in my opinion SIM doesn't recognize the device, does she?
Has anyone of you experience of Lumia in Japan? is there any specific set up to perform?
For the moment I just use the Iphone as tethering for the Lumia...but it's a quite expensive solution and my wife will not agree this as long term solution.
Thank you in advance,

HI,
Are you sure about nano sim or you use an adapter ?
Lumia cannot work with nano sim.
If sim is not recognized you will receive SIM error.
If lumia is sim-locked you will be asked for unlock code if SIM is recognized.

Hello,
Thank you.
Yes actually I use an adapter (and I broke the small pins when pulling out the SIM rack...but that's another story )
The Lumia was sold as SIM free. When I put the first time I didnt get windows to ask the unlocking code...so I guess it's really SIM free.
Then I didn't get the Softbank network...I check in the setting we 4G activated he didn't recognize the Softbank LTE network...but with 3G he could find it. So I think the SIM is recognized and that it's then just a setting issue? or also I saw that some people had issue with different roms??

what pins you broke ? SIM readers pins ?
if this is the case your phone probably don't read the SIM card I have the same issue and have to change the flex cable with the SIM reader.
can you make phone calls when you're running 3g ?
Hi to all,
i have a problem, maybe you can help me. My Phones is Star S7589 quad core.
I have a dual sim smartphone. I installed many custom roms and i have still same problem.
My problem : In my city sim 1 have connection and internet too. I can call, the people can reach me.
If i drive to another city, i don`t have any connection. Noone can reach me, i can not call someone. It shows full strength connection, but no way to connect to internet or call someone. My Sim 2 is working really fine.

Does anyone know this symptoms?
What can it be? i checked the apn files and could not any differences.
Thank you very much

Hello, first of all, I am new here, excuse my english, I am french Canadian, I will try to make best as I can...
I am not sure i am in the right section of the forum but I will try my question...
I have bought a Cat S60 cell phone (Android Marshmallow 6.0.1), I have choose this one for her rigidity, the Flir cam and the dual sim card. Everything is perfect except the dual sim... the problem is, I can't run both cards on 3g or 4g... if the first card is on the 3 or 4g, the second switched automatically to 2g... same thing if the second is on the 3 or 4g, the first one drop to 2G...
Someone have a code or something like that to bypass the system to run both card on 3g and 4g? my cell phone provider doesn't ave 2g in my location... I have tested some codes like *#*#4636#*#* but absolutely nothing works, when I dial the last *, all the code be erased and... nothing...
The phone is not under warranty and if the 2G function is to preserve the battery, it's not a problem, I will charge every night...
your help should be very appreciated.
Thanks! Frank
