hi
2 day ago my dad bought a mediapad 10FHD
the guy that sold it to him told him that the tablet had full phone capabilites - i.e. make calls, send\reicive sms+mms
the tablet works great except the phone stuff...
and i couldnt find anywhere that adresses this issue...
when i downloaded DialerOne it said that the "Device does not have phone capablities"
but it came preinstalled with a chinses app that makes calls but only on specific countries ( i'm from Israel)
can anyone help or do i need to return the device?
thanks

I have Honor 7 - PLK-UL00IN - Indian version.
Dual SIM is not enabled in this version. I'm in a need of it now.
Is it possible to get it via a patch or some other thing without rooting ?
My suggestion is to debrand it and flash a fw of a region which have dual sim support.
And I am not sure if this will work

I am not sure but I saw an entry in build.prop which says dual sim= true or false.
You can search online for editing build.prop using adb (without root, think I read somewhere that it is possible) and give it a try but keep a backup and figure out a way in advancr to put the original build.prop back if something goes wrong.
Might work... You can also contact DigiGoon, an Indian honor 7 developer for confirmation or more information.
Sent from my PLK-L01 using XDA Labs
Switching it to true could make it work, but I will hold off and wait for someone to make a guide
Plz someone help to make indian version of honor 7 = plk-ul00 to dual sim. Honor lauched it in india as single sim devies but hardaware still support dual sim (as seen in build props ) they some how made 2nd sim in airplane mode also sim mangement option is not available in settings.
I think we should install firmware of other region with dual sim suppo but then also promblem of 2nd sim imei no remains

So far no one did a mod for honor 7 (indian variant) to work as dual sim
To get it done legally only Honor people can do it. Because our handsets came with single imiei no. If u unlocked 2nd sim but without having 2nd imei no, it is crime in india
I forgot about IMEI, it may not work without a second one being present
I think we should request for dual sim support @ authorised sevice centers and Compony people.
Also somewhere on net I read about tools for enabling imei no. But that was for mtk (mediatek)devises which has much devlopment support .I dont know about honor/ huwei/kirin how to do it but there are ways too.we need somewone who is familiar with emui/kirin processors to do it
For now, we can't do anything about enabling dual sim on honor 7

Im thinking to move back to Honor 7 from 5X again due to lack of update.
But I'm locked inside 5X because of the Dual SIM support

It's a tough decision to which you'll use as daily driver, take 5x
Already riding on 5X. Hoping for a change soon.
I am waiting for my new device to arrive
I dont understand logic of honor people behind launching devices in some regions with blocked 2nd sim by software and in some regions with dual activ
Where as we pay as much price same, lets we deciide how to use the phone but they block 2nd sim tray.Again launched honor 8 and honor 8 smart with same condition
Pathetic

Seems that each region has their own preference.
In some region there is no proper OS update. But they release dual sim variant.
In some region they don't enable VoLTE. If required they are enabling it after some months.
In some region they give excessive bloatwares.
In some region they give 2 years commitment.
Its not the same all over the world. Sad to see this state

No accessories for h7 (from honor)?! Really?!
That's a shame
Just picked up my mate 10 pro upgrade from Vodafone this morning. Came with a free Huawei Watch 2 which was a result
When you first power it up it detects an operator ota update which downloads apps but importantly it also enables WiFi calling.
My previous device was a mate 9 6gb version and this already feels more premium.

This confirms what I knew that Volte only works with carrier branded ROMS.
didn't realise Vodafone were selling the M10Pro. That could have only come up recently as it was only CPW and Three that were stocking them.
It was shown as coming soon on Vodafone for the last couple of weeks. They never mentioned it on social media tho and the first 1000 customers get a free Huawei watch 2 which is a bonus

Awesome. Hows the screen? Do you miss it not being 2k?
I've had so many phones including pixel, s8 plus, iPhone 8 plus, oneplus 5 etc.. this is the best screen and phone I've owned by a long shot. Everything seems to just work and battery is really good, camera awesome and no screen issues at all. Don't miss 2k at all, screens too small to notice the difference to me

Not so. All EU Mate 10 Pro' s have this built in. My Mate 10 Pro unbranded and unlocked from CPW, detected my 3 sim and changed the settings accordingly.

Ooh exciting. I wonder if it's the same for all UK carriers. Can you show a screenshot to enable it?
There’s no real screen shot. When the phone detects the sim, it provisions it and install or adds (not sure exactly what’s going on) the respective software needed to automatically do what’s needed. Under networks this is what I see
Also top left status bar normally shows “3 WiFi Calling”
This is the single sim version from Carphone Warehouse. I have the dual sim version coming from Amazon Germany later this week.
As the Mate 10 Pro (dual sim) is Dual VoLTE(4G calling) capable, then it would be really nice to see this tested in UK. Every provider in UK who has VoLTE support for P10, should be good with Mate 10 Pro also.
What's interesting is that the WiFi calling shortcut can't be found on the Vodafone update. It appears as a to-do option and once you've enabled it the option vanishes completely. As you can see tho it still works
I got mine from Carphonewarehouse (sim unlocked) but once I put the Three sim inside it downloaded a tonne of Three apps and even branded itself to them

How you getting on with the phone? I'm tempted to buy one!
edit: I've just pulled the trigger. Returned my Pixel 2 XL due to several issues.
Got the mate 10 Pro from Vodafone, with the smart watch, 32gb data and unlimited minutes and texts for £45 a month!!

Can't fault it at all. I had pre-ordered a pixel 2 XL but after reading about all the issues I cancelled it.
You won't be disappointed in it all.
Hi, does the phone came with Vodafone bloatware and startup screen?

Nope it's completely stock. When it detects the Vodafone SIM it then downloads my Vodafone app

What's your screen like. It's a great screen. But mine has a bit of an uneven green tint. A bit annoying. Tempted to try another
Hello all,
I am there for help. I have bought my HUAWEI P9 Plus about one year, but I broked my screen last week, and i have bought a screen from Amazon and want to replace it by myself, is there any guide help me do it?
Hello from Germany!
(unfortauntly) I just bought a RealMe GT 5G in blue with 12GB/256GB from China (cect shop) for a very good price and awesome specs. (Those specs are not available for the global EU version, right?)
What I didnt know, was that the Chinese version (RMX2202) requires me to "register" myself and "verify my identity" to install an app from F-Droid and also other apps...
So I understand: Big brother must be watching and I don't like it.
I read the thread about removing the Chinese Apps
Bloatware list to disable for Realme GT Neo
and also all pages of this one (fantastic thread btw!)
Realme GT Convert China ROM to Global
On the last pages I've read that some of you are switching back to the CN ROM after flashing the global ROM, because a few things don't work in the global ROM. So I am not sure if I should do it..
Now the question:
Is there a way to use the CN Version without the RealMe verfiy thingi / big brother? Of course wait until we get linage for the device..
Sending it back to china and getting my money back might be difficult. I think about selling this phone and buy myself a EU Version with 8GB/128GB from the official Realme Shop. What's your opinion on this?
Looking forward to your help!
Cheers,
Daniel
Fun/Scary fact:
I ordered the phone from cect and after I've inserted my simcard, I received a whatsapp message from a chinese number +86 saying that they need a pickup from the airport in Berlin (capital city of Germany). Obviously just a message to see if its a real phone number.. I don't live in Berlin nor know somebody who has to get picked up from the airport in Berlin...very interesting.
Enjoy it as it is as long as you have gplay and all other Google services
