Hi
For my work I use two sim cards from two different countries, and I bought Italian TIM brand of ZE554KL with TIM firmware, thinking that it was DUAL SIM
Even the seller had told me that this phone is dual sim.
Unfortunately, it's not, end there is not any entry regarding dual sim operation in connection menu.
For me this is a problem, because I should use two phones.
I know that many users in Italy who have this phone, have this same problem.
All the two SIMs work well. BUT…
If I want to use Tim sim, I have to put it in the first place in the card tray, or when I have to use Telenor Sim, then I put the Telenor Sim in the first place on card tray.
Simply, every time I should change the place of the sims.
With two sim, one, or no sim inserted, the management of the sim does not exist.
Question:
Is it possible that this phone is different in the hardware configuration for the Italian brend TIM (without internal contacts for the second SIM), or is it only a matter of software management?
I kindly ask you to give me an answer regarding the possibility of enabling the second sim.

Thank you very much.

I have tmobile mda II and bought the dual sim card from UK. (King of Double)
IT does not work. It does not even recognize the original tmobile SIM card. I trieed using one sim slot while the dual sim adapter was plugged in the MDA II. MDA does not recognize and it says' Invalid SIM...'.
Does it only work with GSM SIMS? I have tmobile SIM that is for USA only and one from Vietnam.
Gurus, please help with regards to any special configuration, version of ROM, flight mode, etc.
I have a duel sim adaptor as well. I had used it very well. But, one of my friend has the same probelm as you. Before he can use the adaptor, he had asked the supplier replace the adaptor for almost ten times. Good luck to you. :roll:
I have never had a problem with the Ghost sim's
Hi everybody,
I bought sprint note 3 wich was locked, and i used ssu apk to unlock it, it was 4.4.4 when i unlocked it, was using with 3g sim cards and i didnt have any issue, now my operator startet with lte/4g networks, and i went to change my sim card and got new sim card with lte/4g support, and now my sim card is not working, when i remove sim and put it again and power on the phone, i have signal for about 1 minute, and i can make calls, then the signals stops, and i changed 2 sim cards, even with other opertor didnt work, what im trying to say is that with normal sim cards my phone works perfect, only with lte/4g sims i cant make it work.. one guy there sad to me maybe your phone is not full unlocked, if this is case how can i fully unlock, thanks in advance and sorry for my english, its not my native language. Again thanks. Any help will be very welcomed.
You need a carrier that has the LTE 1900 GSM band. In the US it's ATT.
I bought a Moto E in Chile several months ago. It came with a SIM card from the company Claro, but they assured me it was unlocked. I switched the SIM to my Entel SIM card, and it worked fine. I took a trip to the U.S. and tried to use a SIM card from someone else's phone, but it asked for a PIN. I just figured the SIM was PIN locked, gave up and forgot about it. Now I'm in Colombia, and I tried several SIM cards from Claro, but they don't work. With my Chilean Entel SIM card, I still get roaming network access, but if I put any other SIM in (even my Chilean Claro SIM), I get no signal. Bizarre because the phone was originally a Claro phone.
So did the Entel SIM card somehow lock my phone to Entel?? That's the only explanation I can think of... If so, how can I unlock it?

Bands might not be supported! That's the best probable explanation since you have an unlocked phone, inserting a sim shouldn't lock it!

I checked that just in case, but the bands are supported. Anyway, if the bands weren't supported I wouldn't get roaming access with my Entel SIM either, right?
The people at Claro (and at Movistar too) told me I need to contact the store where I bought the phone and ask them for an unlock code. Unfortunately I don't have the receipt with me in Colombia, and I don't remember which store I bought the phone at... I guess I'll try just emailing every store I might have bought it at, but if that doesn't work, what other option do I have?
hi, I have two phones blackberry priv and zte axon 7. they seem to be unlocked, because when I insert sim card they won't ask for unlock code. originally phones were for Movistar Costa Rica, I bought them on ebay and want to use in europe. but when I insert sim cards they don't get service or any signal, but recognize that sim is inserted and even read sim card number. any idea what can be causing this? btw I can't change anything from secret menu when I call *#*#4636#*#*. please advice me something, thank you very much
someone any advice?
Hello everyone,
i could take this phone as an upgrade with my current plan, however it is of course single sim.
In EU there are any differences in the hardware between single sim and dual sim (other than the sim tray slot)?
Thanks

I wish it was that simple, could use that functionality tbh... Unfortunately you can not convert a single sim card phone into a dual sim card.
This is because the phone lacks the necessary connections/hardware internally for dual sim card support.
