Question eSIM activation - Sony Xperia 1 IV

Hello
Did anyone sucessfully activated an eSIM on a XQ-CT54 ? It doesn't work for me, I tested with three differents qrcodes from 3 networks operators.
Thanks

Worked like a charm for me - eSIM is my standard currently. Also used it an an DualSIM / Mixed setup without problems

It finally worked..
Thx for your reply.

Just to confirm, are you saying the following setup works simultaneously: ?
Physical SIM + eSIM (Dual SIM) + microSD

Yes it works: SIM+eSIM+microSD
You can have several eSIM installed but only one activated.

Can not confirm the microSD Part - haven't used it once since phones passed the 128GB internal storage mark ;-)

Thank you both for the replies! Appreciate it!

I am using normal sim, my provider does not support eSIM on pay as go. Really hate to lose the second sim to a 512GB sd card but i have a solution.

Enyone?
Or will it work in other android mobiles?
To keep reliability and official support, keep your SIM as is originally.
Do you think it would be a better idea to set up call-forwarding from one SIM (in another mobile) to the new SGS2 one?

Before my SGS2 I had an HTC HD2 with a MagicSIM CUT 26th generation. All working great, but while getting the dual sim adapter out of my HD2 I broke it
So yesterday I ordered a MagicSIM 28th CUT adapter and today I installed it into my SGS2. Working like a charm!

Nice! So does this allow you to have two cards online at a time and default one of them for i.e. data connection.
When I am traveling I would like one card for data connection (sip) and the standard card for receiving sms which cannot be forwarded to sip CID.

No, you can only use one and switch between them when you need in a menu.

Sim Tray

Hello does anybody know of a double nano simtray for this device ? Asking because I have two Sims each with 3 GB and don't wanna have to fiddle with the adapter in the middle of the month ?
Wouldn't you just need nano-micro adaptor for the 1 sim? Then have both sims in all the time.

Yes I have the adapter or the sims I have are multi but afaik the 5x only has 2g in sim slot 2 ... Or am I wrong I've looked with my Google Fü but no luck I just remember a Utube vid where they said that...
Just read on a DLand site I can switch which card uses the Lte hope that true than I´ll be ok ...

LTE/4G/3G works on either sim slot, however only one sim at a time can be LTE/4G/3G and the other sim will only be 2G, but you can change which slot is which in settings.
Got it love it and the 4g switch works .... Delete post or mark as solved..
Just asking....

Do you mean 3 g?
If so, only 1 simcard at a time supports 3g
you can buy a cheap adapter on internet.
Hope i helped you
1nano,1micro+1sdcard
I wished they used two micro slots.
pretty sure you can switch the data use over the two sims without removing them
Future phones will have two micro slots.

Dual sim

Hi, i read on gsmarena that honor 7 is dual sim stand by that means that both sims cant be active at the same time, is it true?
I want to insert another sim in my honor 7 and want to use both sims simultaneously. How can i make it work?

It depends on the variant you have. Most don't have two full modems for it.
You need to check calling your SIM 2 number from SIM 1 and vice versa.

You can use one sim for 3g/4g and the other works on 2g only..
Feel free to ask whatever information you need.

Nope, you can just go to settings>dual sim settings and change your other sim to perform 4g/3g and the first one to perform 2g. If I remember correctly, you don't even need a restart.
It just takes 4,5 secs and you are good to use 4g on the second sim.

Tab S6 regional differences

Hi all,
I'm currently looking into purchasing a Tab S6 since it has all the right features in what I am looking for in a tablet.
Bit of a problem is, that I am based in Germany. For some unknown reason Samsung does not offer the Wifi 8GB RAM/256 GB storage variant here, which would be the sweet spot for me.
Luckily I will be traveling to the USA very soon and I am thinking about picking the Wifi 8GB RAM variant up there.
Is there anything I have to watch out for in terms of differences in variants between the devices sold in Germany and the USA? I haven't found much information about this online and I also don't expect there to be many differences as I am not buying the LTE variant but I just want to make sure before purchasing.
Many Thanks.
I thought this specifications has the LTE variant only ... . My was delivered just yesterday btw. I'm in Germany too.

Did you buy the Wifi 6GB RAM variant in germany or did you import the Wifi 8GB RAM version from the U.S.?

Thank you. I was going to get the s4 and the s6 was coming out so I decided to wait. The only information I could find about the s6 phone capabilities was the sync stuff. I'm not interested in that at all. Plan on replacing my current phone with the s6.

The small triangle icon appears only when when you insert the SIM card. The slot for it is the same like for the micro SD.

Yes, exactly just like a normal mobile phone. Of course there an option to connect to an other mobile phone but this is a different thing and has nothing to do with tab's s6 LTE function.
If you got a LTE model which is more expensive then the WIFI variant, it's just like a mobile phone.

Maybe just check out the slot, if there is place for a SIM, insert one and see what happens... .
Or do you think, your president disabled the call function for obvious reasons

I found the problem. My device is SM-T867. probably a cut version of SM-T865. I have already put my sim card and can access to internet even send sms but no phone calls. i even tried third party dialer apps but no result. i am curious if i flash 865 firmware to it, will it brick it?

That's a good question ... . But I guess odin will refuse it.
Btw., if you have a galaxy phone, it's possible to make calls with the tab, it will use then the phone.

Question Limited sim manager in verizon?

I currently have dual Sims running on my s23 ultra. Both Sims are from Verizon. Phone is unlocked and originally purchased from Google fi.
However, I am unable to designate one sim for data and one sim for calls only in sim manager. There is only an option to designate a primary sim.
Does anyone have any idea if there is a command to unlock all the features in sim manager? I tried searching, but have been unable to find anything.
This is a feature that Samsung doesn't offer. You have to choose a default SIM for both and then tap the indicators in the OS to swap between them. Like if you're making a call, both SIM names will show up at the bottom of the screen and you can tap which to use. When sending a message, you'll see towards the right of the text box there will be a number 1 or 2 in a SIM card. You tap that to switch between them. You can set custom labels and SIM icons/colors to help differentiate them further.
It hasn't been a big deal unless I need to download or send an MMS on the line that's not set as the default and I also appreciate that Samsung adds an option to set a specific ringer for the second SIM - allows me to just silence my data SIM.
I'm from South Africa and I use 2 physical sims on my phone. It gives me the options to decide which phone to use for calls/messages/data as per your screen shot. I see you have on e-sim and one physical sim. Maybe that is the reason you don't get the options I have. I have my primary sim for calls and messages and sim 2 for data setup. When configured it also gives you the options in the drop down menu to change on the fly without going into the settings menu
I definitely agree that the North American dual-SIM (pSIM + eSIM) options are lacking. Unlike the dual-pSIM model, pSIM + eSIM in North American models are DSDS (dual-SIM dual standby) instead of DSDA (dual-SIM dual active).

I would be happy to be wrong. If there is some way to get that DSDA and whatever else is needed for Dual Active. I would be happy to try. Do you have a link to the s22 Ultra thread so I can look at what they did?

The last post in that thread seems to imply it was fixed/patched with OneUI 5. s23 Ultra users don't have the ability to roll back to Android 12
I must have missed that in the thread, that's unfortunate. Hopefully we will have a work around in the near future. Appreciate the info!
I also have this problem and hope it can be solved.
it's a little annoy because I have a sim for data and another sim for call and message.
I prefer to have my devices ask which SIM for every call. Depending on the country I am in, would determine the SIM I want to set for data.

I disagree, because i had 2 sims in my samsung Phone and it let me put from which shall be for data and which is for calls, sms/mms. So Samsung does have it, unless they removed it.

Apparently international variants have it, which I wasn't aware of, but US variants do not. This is a stupid thing for Samsung to do and I hope they fix it at some point.
I am using a s918b version. If I flash EUX Home_CSC , I will have option to select which sim for call, sms, data, and the data switch option as well. However, if I flash XAC (Canada)home_csc, then I only have one option to select which sim to be the primary sim. So I dont know, if it's a CSC related feature or not.
So If my device havevthe csc code with xaa, I can reflash with the csc which provide the dual sim manager?
