So the G8342 is a dual sim.. not sure the benefit but would it be possible to flash the G8341 firmware?
How can we check which firmware we're running?
obviously 47.1.A.2.324 is latest.. but how to know if its UK, customized DE, US, etc. ?

I think you can flash G8341 firmware on G8342 but dual sim functions will not work/disapear. Not 100% sure though
For customization number do the following
Go to dialer and dial *#*#7378423#*#*
Go to service info
Go to software info and look what number is under customization version
Look up the number in xperifirm application or on the xpericheck website https://xpericheck.com/device/G8341

Because single sim OS is just not designed for dual sim..
Hi All. I reflash G8341 to G8342, all working, exclude Dual Sim Mode. After flash I can on VoWiFi mode
I have bought a Huawei P20 Lite in a Vodafone shop. This phone only works with one sim....
If i unlock the bootloader and update with the rom ANE-LX1 8.0.0.126(C432) DualSim, will the dual sim work?

Could you please share with more detail instruction about it ?
You need to flash a new oeminfo for the right region, I went for c432 dual SIM which is pretty much all you need to do to enable the second sim. Then you need to flash the correct firmware for that region. I then updated the firmware via firmware finder, but hrupdater it probably an easier way of doing it. And that was pretty much it. I used hwota8 to flash the correct oeminfo and the rest as described above.

Hi pls upload the oeminfo for the c432 dual sim .
Thanks in advance.
If you download hwota8 in the roms section, it's in that software. Just unzip it and you will see the oeminfo file. That's the one I used.

You have to flash oeminfo from dual sim and then flash full firmware.
Flash only firmware from dual sim your device stay a single sim.
I checked mine in the other way around, I flashed single sim firmware in my dual sim device and it stays a dual sim.
Can anyone post a step-by-step tutorial?

Be aware that the IMEI from second SIM will be null.
You can find the C432 dual SIM oeminfo in the HwOTA8 for Huawei P20 Lite https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-lite/development/hwota8-huawei-p20-lite-t3787787

In this case that imei of the second sim is null "00000", the second sim works both for calling and for internet ? and the sims work simultaneously?

One SIM - 2G/3G/4G
The other SIM - only 2G
No, they don't work as Dual SIM active, they work as Dual Stand-by, when one SIM is making or receiving a call the other SIM would be ignored.
Hello,
i have p20lite single sim C432 Italian.
Can i transform in dual sim?
Hi,
I have a P20 lite from Orange orignaly ANE-LX1 8.0.0.149(C109).
Only one SIM is available.
So, in the objective to get dual SIM phone, I did :
1. Unlock BL
2. Flash dual sim oeminfo C432 using HWOTA
3. Flash ANE-LX1C432B172 (8.0.0.172) : update, update-data-full and ANE-L21_hw_eu
Result is :
- 2 IMEI, second is null
- Both SIM are detected and connected to the network
- Only first SIM can make/received call/SMS
- It works better when I switch data 3g/4g on second SIM - at least for few minutes I can call from both SIM
If I compare with my old P9 lite, fully fonctional dual sim, I see only one IMEI.
Well, any idea for next step? @kilroystyx @DANIELWHITT maybe?
Thanks.
Hello guys,
Mate 10 Pro C636 Asia here.
I have to travel to Africa for 6 months and I put my Malaysian SIM(Maxis) in the second SIM slot while the Nigerian SIM in first SIM slot.
Please, I want to know if this configuration will be able to detect firmware updates or do I need to put the Malaysian SIM into the first slot?
Thanks guys
Someone should please help here.
1. Do I use only Malaysian SIM?
2. Can I use Malaysian SIM and my current region's SIM? If yes, which should be in slot 1?
3. Can I get it with any other SIM?

for this you need to check on what frequencis their lte and 3g are working. IF they are the same, everything will work. Sim slot doenst matter i think
Doesn't matter if u use any sim slot.
You get updates even without sim card over wifi.
The moment you get updates depending on imei numbers.
Hi, I just bought Xperia 1 but unfortunately J8110. Is there any chance to convert it into dual sim with J9110 rom? Sim card tray is different but it isn't a problem. I'm not sure if there is a different modem in there. Has anyone tried this before?

Xperia J8110 is a single sim and there is no hardware in the mainboard for the second sim. it can only support 1 sim and 1 microSD card. so, no need to flash a different rom and mess up with your phone. just flash the correct J8110 rom
