Dear all,
I just purchased a A199 Huawei dual CDMA/GSM phone from Aliexpress. Prior to purchase i had confirmed with seller that phone isn't locked and that i would be able to use my own provider SIM cards.
When I received the phone only the GSM SIM is detected, the CDMA SIM isn't detected despite using the same 800 Mhz frequency band (CDMA 2000). I then tried to download a ROM file from a chinese forum shuajizhijia.com, after the flash my phone kept rebooting itself continuously.
Anybody have any idea how to solve this?
Thanks.

Hi, just realized that my brand new Honor 4x is SIM locked on China Telecom. I can use the slot SIM2 but only wit 2G.
I travel a lot between Germany and China and therefore would like to insert my German T-Mobile LTE SIM in slot one. I get the message "invalid SIM"
Any chance to unlock the sim, bypass the provider restriction?
Thanks!
PS in the meantime I translated the Chinese description which states that it is provider locked
I'm trying to get my Huawei Valiant (Y301 A1) SIM unlocked. I'm still looking for ways to unlock it. Not sure if FreeUnlocks works
I have bought a Huawei P20 Lite in a Vodafone shop. This phone only works with one sim....
If i unlock the bootloader and update with the rom ANE-LX1 8.0.0.126(C432) DualSim, will the dual sim work?
Thanks you

mine started life as a single sim c782 variant,
i changed mine to c432 variant by flashing a c432 dual sim oeminfo and flashing the relvant software and now have a fully working dual sim phone, accepting updates and works great.

Could you please share with more detail instruction about it ?
You need to flash a new oeminfo for the right region, I went for c432 dual SIM which is pretty much all you need to do to enable the second sim. Then you need to flash the correct firmware for that region. I then updated the firmware via firmware finder, but hrupdater it probably an easier way of doing it. And that was pretty much it. I used hwota8 to flash the correct oeminfo and the rest as described above.

Hi pls upload the oeminfo for the c432 dual sim .
Thanks in advance.
If you download hwota8 in the roms section, it's in that software. Just unzip it and you will see the oeminfo file. That's the one I used.

You have to flash oeminfo from dual sim and then flash full firmware.
Flash only firmware from dual sim your device stay a single sim.
I checked mine in the other way around, I flashed single sim firmware in my dual sim device and it stays a dual sim.
Can anyone post a step-by-step tutorial?

Be aware that the IMEI from second SIM will be null.
You can find the C432 dual SIM oeminfo in the HwOTA8 for Huawei P20 Lite https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-lite/development/hwota8-huawei-p20-lite-t3787787

In this case that imei of the second sim is null "00000", the second sim works both for calling and for internet ? and the sims work simultaneously?

One SIM - 2G/3G/4G
The other SIM - only 2G
No, they don't work as Dual SIM active, they work as Dual Stand-by, when one SIM is making or receiving a call the other SIM would be ignored.
Hello,
i have p20lite single sim C432 Italian.
Can i transform in dual sim?
Hi,
I have a P20 lite from Orange orignaly ANE-LX1 8.0.0.149(C109).
Only one SIM is available.
So, in the objective to get dual SIM phone, I did :
1. Unlock BL
2. Flash dual sim oeminfo C432 using HWOTA
3. Flash ANE-LX1C432B172 (8.0.0.172) : update, update-data-full and ANE-L21_hw_eu
Result is :
- 2 IMEI, second is null
- Both SIM are detected and connected to the network
- Only first SIM can make/received call/SMS
- It works better when I switch data 3g/4g on second SIM - at least for few minutes I can call from both SIM
If I compare with my old P9 lite, fully fonctional dual sim, I see only one IMEI.
Well, any idea for next step? @kilroystyx @DANIELWHITT maybe?
Thanks.
Hello,
I have a problem with my Huawei P20 Lite ANE-LX3. I can't update my phone because I think I have install the wrong ROM.
My operator is Fido Canada.
Please help me.
That's a problem when installing wrong region / model firmware.
The region should match the one on your oeminfo. The Model on the update_ANE-LX3 file should match as well, L23 for dual sim or L03 for single sim

Sorry i'm not very good in smartphone .
Where I can see if I have a single sim or a dual sim?
Hi @All I purchased new s9+ from Canada its model is SM-G9650 and i will use this phone in india .Now, this phone came with sim tray that supports only one sim + microsd card. My question is that will dual sim it work if i replaced sim tray and changed csc version?
Also can someone please tell me which csc version will be best suitable for volte to work as indian csc isn't available in snapdragon version?
That's not a canadian model, seems more like the chinese model which should be dual sim.
It's the same model that I have. bought in Chile, and I'm also interested in knowing if it turns out
