Hi, i read on gsmarena that honor 7 is dual sim stand by that means that both sims cant be active at the same time, is it true?
I want to insert another sim in my honor 7 and want to use both sims simultaneously. How can i make it work?

It is dual sim stand by. I used one sim on honor 7 to call another on the same phone and it worked.
Just slide another sim in and give the above method a try to make sure.

Yeah i know it is dual stand by so that means both sims cant be active at the same time, that is where im confused.
Are you using two sims for daily use?

Yep. Two sims all the time... Both sims are active and as I said, you can even use sim1 to ring sim2 in the same phone meaning even if you are in call at sim1 and someone calls you on sim2, it will ring and you will have the option to put sim1 on hold and receive sim2 call.
Hope my explanation makes sense

Okay, that helps. Its just that the google definition of dual stand by confused me

Just a logical guess: If I have 2 SIM cards on a BA, only the active SIM card will ring if a call is received, right?
yes, unless you divert one sim to the sim u use most of all.

Makes sense.
It is cheaper to divert a call to an international number than to receive a roaming call.
Hi all, maybe anyone of you have an idea, I can't make calls or send sms and the mobile data isn't working, too, atm. But incoming everything is working.

Have you by any chance changed network and getting your number ported? If so it's now done in stages (well in the UK anyway) and you have split personality for a while (all incoming on one sim and all outgoing on the other) until the port completes.
If you're not porting your number, do you have the same issues with your sim in another phone? Have a word with you provider too.

Hm, I had to cut my sim to a microsim for the gs3, so I can't test it with my old phone, but my sister is on the same provider and she hasn't any problems. I defenetly don't port my number to another sim.

Maybe something went wrong when cutting your sim? You could get an adapter so that you can try it in another phone. I simply asked my provider for a micro sim, so I don't know much about the cutting them down, sorry.

Indeed, ask your provider for a microsim then see what happens

Hmm, curious, now it works again flawless. maybe I have to perfectionize my cutted simcard a little bit

Hey guys
Before hitting buy on one of these, can someone please explain to me how dual sim works? Preferably with some screenshots. This is going to be my first dual-sim phone
I understand dual sim dual standby, in that both sims can use 3G/4G but only one at a time. Do you decide which SIM is the main active one for data in software?
Thanks
Ive got the prime
I can choose Internet from sim 1 and call from sim 2

It depends on the variant you have. Most don't have two full modems for it.
You need to check calling your SIM 2 number from SIM 1 and vice versa.

I am from Pakistan and using both sims simultaneously. The model is PLK-L01.
You can use one sim for 3g/4g and the other works on 2g only..
Feel free to ask whatever information you need.

Nope, you can just go to settings>dual sim settings and change your other sim to perform 4g/3g and the first one to perform 2g. If I remember correctly, you don't even need a restart.
It just takes 4,5 secs and you are good to use 4g on the second sim.

I currently have dual Sims running on my s23 ultra. Both Sims are from Verizon. Phone is unlocked and originally purchased from Google fi.
However, I am unable to designate one sim for data and one sim for calls only in sim manager. There is only an option to designate a primary sim.
Does anyone have any idea if there is a command to unlock all the features in sim manager? I tried searching, but have been unable to find anything.
This is a feature that Samsung doesn't offer. You have to choose a default SIM for both and then tap the indicators in the OS to swap between them. Like if you're making a call, both SIM names will show up at the bottom of the screen and you can tap which to use. When sending a message, you'll see towards the right of the text box there will be a number 1 or 2 in a SIM card. You tap that to switch between them. You can set custom labels and SIM icons/colors to help differentiate them further.
It hasn't been a big deal unless I need to download or send an MMS on the line that's not set as the default and I also appreciate that Samsung adds an option to set a specific ringer for the second SIM - allows me to just silence my data SIM.
I'm from South Africa and I use 2 physical sims on my phone. It gives me the options to decide which phone to use for calls/messages/data as per your screen shot. I see you have on e-sim and one physical sim. Maybe that is the reason you don't get the options I have. I have my primary sim for calls and messages and sim 2 for data setup. When configured it also gives you the options in the drop down menu to change on the fly without going into the settings menu
I definitely agree that the North American dual-SIM (pSIM + eSIM) options are lacking. Unlike the dual-pSIM model, pSIM + eSIM in North American models are DSDS (dual-SIM dual standby) instead of DSDA (dual-SIM dual active).

No. There is no DSDA package in the U/U1/W firmware.

I would be happy to be wrong. If there is some way to get that DSDA and whatever else is needed for Dual Active. I would be happy to try. Do you have a link to the s22 Ultra thread so I can look at what they did?

The last post in that thread seems to imply it was fixed/patched with OneUI 5. s23 Ultra users don't have the ability to roll back to Android 12
I must have missed that in the thread, that's unfortunate. Hopefully we will have a work around in the near future. Appreciate the info!
I also have this problem and hope it can be solved.
it's a little annoy because I have a sim for data and another sim for call and message.
I prefer to have my devices ask which SIM for every call. Depending on the country I am in, would determine the SIM I want to set for data.

I disagree, because i had 2 sims in my samsung Phone and it let me put from which shall be for data and which is for calls, sms/mms. So Samsung does have it, unless they removed it.

Apparently international variants have it, which I wasn't aware of, but US variants do not. This is a stupid thing for Samsung to do and I hope they fix it at some point.
I am using a s918b version. If I flash EUX Home_CSC , I will have option to select which sim for call, sms, data, and the data switch option as well. However, if I flash XAC (Canada)home_csc, then I only have one option to select which sim to be the primary sim. So I dont know, if it's a CSC related feature or not.
So If my device havevthe csc code with xaa, I can reflash with the csc which provide the dual sim manager?
