I recently bought the Huawei p20 pro (L09 single sim phone). I need to buy a new SIM tray for cosmetic purposes as the one I have is quite badly scratched. Would the dual SIM card tray fit and work just for use of my one SIM card? Struggling to find a single SIM tray online to replace it.
Thanks.

Hi
I have read plenty on here about the problems people are getting trying to unlock an Orange Hero, so have decided to go down the rebelsim route.
I have ordered one with the hole punch, I couldn't find any specific help on their website about how you use it.
Does it come with instructions ?
If not can anyone help me on what I have to do to use it ?
What is the hole punch for ?
Can you use the same rebelsim for more than one simcard ?
Will the phone be the same as before when inserting a new sim with the rebelsim ie. all previous applications still there/messages/emails ?
Thanks for your help.
Does it come with instructions ?
Mine didn't
If not can anyone help me on what I have to do to use it ?
There are instructions on there website on how to insert it into the phone.
What is the hole punch for ?
The punch puts a small hole in your sim card so the rebel sim fits neatly behind it, as the rebel sim has a very small chip on it. The hole does not effect the normal use of your sim if you choose to remove the rebel sim.
Can you use the same rebelsim for more than one simcard ?
As far as I know, if you change phones and wish to use the rebel sim you should be able to.
Will the phone be the same as before when inserting a new sim with the rebelsim ie. all previous applications still there/messages/emails ?
The rebel sim doesn't appear to change the phone in any way, just bypasses the network lock.
Hope this helped, I've been using mine for about one month now, had no problems at all.
Thanks for that.
Has anyone used a 3 sim card in their Orange Hero (unlocked either by code or rebelsim) ?

Mine is an Orange Hero that could not be unlocked by code, which is why I got the Rebel sim, I'm using a T-Mobile sim and that works fine.
I have bought the o2 pay as you go sim where you top up £15 a month and get free unlimited texts and internet.
Anyone know where I can get the info to change to settings on the phone to o2's ? I presume I have to change these manually ?
Thanks
I have checked the instructions on the rebel sim website but the pictures are not very clear.
Am I correct in thinking that there is a small part protruding on the rebel sim card and that you have to cut a hole on your network sim card so that the rebel sim can sit down correctly onto it ? I take it that it will be obvious where to cut the hole in my sim card ? also is it the blank end opposite to the chip ?
Thanks, just don't want to mess this up when I get the rebel sim.

Yes to all of that.
Fitted my rebel sim today and everything if working fine with an o2 sim card on my Orange locked hero.
I will give this 9.5 out of 10, I would have given it 10 out of 10 if the cutters they sent weren't pink.
Hi,
what size sim card is needed for motorola atrix 4G ATT phone. GSM Arena says mini Sim ? Some other site I read it takes regular sim but I think it was different carrier.
Regards,
Miten.
Mini SIM is regular SIM...
If you're still unsure (can't imagine why), it's can't be that hard to google, can it?
regular sim is mini sim
thanks for guidance. even after you clarified I googled and did not find site mentioning it clearly. It does show the pictures but does not mention so wanted to clarify.
"Uses mini SIM" is as clear as you'll get, and like I said there should be no confusion about what that means.

As said above, mini SIM is the regular SIM. Other SIM that are commonly used are micro SIM(iP****, HTC etc.) or the Nano SIM, which are smaller than the mini SIM. Though I have never seen a device which uses a SIM bigger than mini SIM (nor I have seen any SIM bigger in size than mini SIM)
Atrix uses mini SIM (25x15mm)

You're clearly too young to have seen them. SIM cards used to be the size of today's credit cards.
Mini SIM is called "mini" for a reason, just like there's a reason SIM cards are usually shipped within a plastic bracket and you have to snap it out.
EDIT: The big card in the background here is the full size SIM card, and the phone in front is the kind of phone that uses a SIM card of such size.

funny thing is even though i was a kid at the time, i remember that size SIM card lol
I replaced the microSD card today in my WIfi model of the Tab S3. While I had the single slot tray (microSD card) removed, I looked inside and it looks like the contacts to read a SIM card are in there.
So I wanted to know if anyone has attempted to swap the WIFI model single slot tray with a dual slot Card/SIM tray?
Wondering if "maybe" the internals are in there and some software tweaks to enable it?
I am debating buying a dual tray online and testing it. But I don't want to end up damaging the slot.
I also checked the popular "teardown" fix it type site for the Tab S3 but I didn't find a video on the disassembly.
Thanks

You running a custom rom?
My new Note 9 Pro's second sim card is not working..... Looks like it is blocked by my service provider. The sim tray's second sim slot has been sealed. I got another sim tray and inserted a second sim but still no luck...... Anyone with some ideas? I would like to use the second sim for extra data
