No, second SIM only work in 2G, at least in the EU firmware.
I don't know if nova 3e (ANE-TL00 and ANE-AL00) is different.

Does the LG G5 H860 Dual Sim support 4G and 3G simultaneously?

Hi everyone,
I'm quite interested in this phone. Does anyone know if the H860 Dual Sim phone supports both 4G and 3G simultaneously?
Both 4G on Sim 1 and 3G on Sim 2 at the same time, not 4G and 2G as in most other dual sim phones.
Thanks
4G and 2G

Hi,
Unfortunately 4G/2G or 2G/4G and there is on other option. As far as I know only Mi5 can work eg. 4G/3G or 3G/4G. I have got both of them so this info is true and confirmed.
Regards
Thanks to you both. That's really disappointing considering the phone has a Snapdragon 820 and other phones with this support 4G and 3G. Is there any custom Roms that support this functionality?

Are you sure? Can you check the network under sim 2 setting?

Unfortunately at the moment its not possible root LG H860N so you can not install alternative software. Even if, you still will have 4G/2G or 2G/4G because developer do not touch radio module. This a reason I want to get rid of it.
BTW The mobile is really good

Hi All,
Just bought Mate 10 ALP-L09 via Vodafone (Spain) thinking its was dual sim version, both nano sims fit in the device but only 1st sim is working, Then I discover there are different sku's for dual sim version. Is there a way to activate this into a dual sim version via firmware rom upgrade?? Its been a while since messing with my phones

You can use FunkyHuawei to rebrand it to ALP-L29 Asia version, and both sims should work. However it will cost money to do.

I don't have a single sim device, so I can't be 100 % sure, however, based on my experience with other Huawei phones, if you use the rebranding tool, it should work to enable two sims.
Note that IMEI for both sims will be the same, which, depending on your carrier, may or may not be OK.

Ok..thank's.. maybe i will wait some weeks before making something wrong.
I have a mate 9 and had many trouble with it. So.. Huawei is very special... Better is to wait a little bit..
Tx for all

Hi there! I'm in the same boat.
Have you decided to try activating the 2nd sim?
How much will it cost to do it through funkyhuawei?
that means losing warranty, no?
This worked (by mistake) on my Mate 9, I just had to order a dual sim tray from aliexpress.
No idea about Mate 10 though
Huawei Mate 10 ALP-L09 dual sim
Hi,
I'm new on this site and I already have a question regarding Huawei Mate 10 ALP-L09 which I have.
I bought this device from someone and receive it by courier without box and accessories(knowing that). When I open the phone to see the model number, I was sadly surprised, knowing that I was ordering the dual sim version. Anyway, my phone is ALP-09, theoretical the Global version of single sim. Instead mine have dual sim ports, two IMEI numbers and working 100% in dual sim mode. Even I have seen couple of missing settings, for example, Dual sim settings and second sim Ringing tone, etc. I have read information regarding this situation and I understand that it's possible using FunkyHuawei or Ministryofsolution help. But, my question is: if the previous owner have made this operation and also change the sim slots, in order to physically have dual sim properties, why did not also change the model number, or this is not important? My concern is if I will be able to receive OTA updates in this situation?
Thank you in advance for yours comments and advises.

S9+ Duos and Exynos - Dual Sim Dual VoLTE?

Is Galaxy S9+ Duos with Exynos SoC Dual Sim Dual VoLTE or 2nd Sim Card is 2G/3G only?
So, you will want to use two different SIMs and speak use VoLTE for both?
I think it's possible. I have never thought of it this way, but it should work (although I do not have any evidence to back it up)
Looks like SIM2 won't do LTE at all according to phonemore http://www.phonemore.com/samsung-galaxy-s9-plus-sm-g965fds/specs/3886
2G network SIM2: GSM 850/900/1800/1900
3G network SIM2: Not supported
4G network SIM2: Not supported
Data network SIM2: GPRS, EDGE

Sorry, but Phonemore specs are completely unbelievable. It's simply bullsh...
Galaxy S7 Edge, Galaxy S8+ Duos and Note 8 Duos (all with Exynos) have 2nd SIM 2G/3G capable. Why could S9+ have only 2G network on 2nd SIM, if older models have 2G/3G?
Galaxy S9+ Duos with Snapdragon SoC supports 4G and VoLTE on both simcards simultaneously. Is it the same with Exynos version?

Unfortunately non of this devices you mention supports 3G. You have to switch in settings in order to have suport 3G,4G for sim 2 and vice versa.
S8 Exynos (G950FD) supported VOLTE on both SIM but not simultaneously; the other SIM would no longer remain in VOLTE network mode if you selected that mode for one SIM.
It's a shame that below $100 xiaomi phones now support VOLTE simultaneously on both SIM but Samsung doesn't. I hope S9 series does.

If you find out that it does will you let me know please. Currently sitting on the Mate 10 Pro which does Dual VOLTE and Dual SIM 4G, if the S9 can do this too then I'll definitely upgrade!

Well, my pre-order is expected to be delivered by 17th March; I can test and let you know by then.
Will voLTE be enabled by default on unlocked phones? Or will I have to buy an operator modified ROM to have the option to use the VoLTE or Wifi calling services?
Thanks
Its Hybrid Dual-Standby config so unfortunately only 1 sim can be primary at 4G/VoLTE and other can be only 3G/2G at that time.
Yea, I've just got my S9+ Exynos and I can confirm: when 1st SIM card is connected to LTE/VoLTE service, the second SIM card is connected to 3G network
No Dual Sim Dual VoLTE.
Shame on you, Samsung. Half year old Huawei Mate 10 Pro is better choice.

:good: Confirmed in Exynos : Only 1 SIM at a time for VOLTE while the other on 2G/3G . You can use either one of the Slots for VoLTE

Now we need to wait and see if the Snapdragon version can do it.
Another question, if you disable LTE on SIM 1, can SIM 2 then connect to LTE. Or do you have to swap the SIM cards over?

I second that.
I just received my S9+ (via renewal of my mobile contract) and received a dual sim one (check by inserting two sim cards, it does ask for both pins and let's me choose the sim card to use for calling), although it was never advertised as such.
However, it only shows LTE for the first one.
Considering that the dual-sim version is marketed as specific "Duos" devices, those might differ - but I wouldn't bet on it.

Can you chose which SIM accesses the LTE or is it only the Sim in slot 1 that can?

You can do that within settings itself.
Problem is not with switching Band of Data SIM; but having both SIM work at LTE simultaneously.

Dual VoLTE on Redmi Note 3

I know that when I put one sim in 4G, the other sim is automatically locked down to 3G. So I can only use one sim on VoLTE. Since both sim supports 4G, is there a way that could possibly force 4G or VoLTE on both sim?
Thanks in advance. Currently running Nitrogen OS 8.1.0 on Redmi Note 3.
asking tooo much tech was not available when this phone was released and its a hardware thing

Oh I tried. And the results weren't positive. And I didn't know that it is a hardware thing...
Possible flash Miui 9 port it supports Dual 4G and Dual VoLTE. I have seen that in their changeling however I have not tested it personally.

Lite version

In the Huawei product ranges, do the Lite variants remove/revoke the Dual SIM 4G ability?
The P20 Pro and Mate 10 Pro have dual standby/dual active 4G with VoLTE.
I can't figure out by reading specs, if the P20Lite or Mate 20Lite versions keep the easy project (aka desktop mode) and dual 4G features (dual standby/dual active). Anyone knows?
Thanks

My P20 lite Has Dual SIM however when both are installed, you must select which SIM is the "Default Mobile Data" SIM. Whichever you select utilizes 3G/4G/LTE (4G+ in US) while the other is limited to 2G only.
That's with an ANE-LX3 8..0.0.144(C605).
Which sucks considering I bought it so I wouldn't have to continue carrying around the work phone, but the work SIM doesn't seem to utilize 2G. (Granted, I probably just don't know enough to get it all to work right).
Pretty crappy either way tho... :crying:

I agree. Seems that one has to choose the premium models to get dual standby dual 4G. Which is really the only real solution. With 2G networks being turned off everywhere, those devices will become as useful as single sim device.
thanks for your reply.
