Hi guys, i have a N7102 Note 2 dual sim phone, and the second SIM card slot is not accepting any of my SIM cards, regardless of whether they are chinese or canadian.
I did a brief search here on XDA and someone said that the second slot is only 900/1800? The spec for this phone says the second slot should be quad band 850/900/1800/1900 though.
Please help me!
There seems to be a problem with SIM Slot two, no one can access the 850mhz. We hope Samsung China fixes this.

Hi, I am an owner of this very nice smartphone, I'm very happy with it but there are a couple of problems that I'm not able to fix:
- it is sold as a 4G (LTE) phone for the sim card on the main slot and 3G on the second slot, it works only on 3G network for the main slot and 2G for the secon one
- an annoying metallic voice or strange noise when I receive or make a call from/to some numbers with a specific sim card (it's random but always the same numbers, I mean... not all numbers of a specific carrier but only some numbers of that carrier and never, till now, with other carriers).
It occours when that sim card is in the second slot (2G) or in the main slot and I force the 2G network on the main slot.
Did you experience the same problem?

Which ever version of the phone that you get is not able to do 4G or LTE so thats a scam of the carrier and for the noise im not sure what can it be.

Vendor assured me that the phone can go in LTE... I must investigate which frequency use Vodafone in Italy.

And if you can search the web you can see for your self that P6 does not support lte in any way.

Thats what I'm trying to explain all the time.

You are probably right and it isn't an LTE device... but for sure the specs on gsmarena are wrong when they say it is a dual sim dual standby.
It is dual active, I can receive calls on the second sim while I'm engaged on the first, hold this and answer on the second and vice versa.
On huawei.ru they say it is 3G, no P6S found on huawei.com.cn
Yes, you are right about dual sim specs. It is definitely dual active.
On GSM Arena are practically all phones dual sim standby. But this is wrong. However, we must admit the fact, that dual sim active phones are very rare.
I am planning on getting the zenfone 2 until I became questioning. I have a personal phone on wind and a business phone on telus, and I need to know if the dual Sim will support that. One of them will be the data but both numbers are gonna be used. I can set up call forwarding. Will this configuration work? Thank you
PS. This is for 2 gig 1.8 GHz version
Provided the sim you use for data is in sim slot 1 and you don't want anything other than talk and sms on sim 2. It should be fine. The sim in the 2nd slot must be able to support 2g.
I need the telus one to support 2g then? How do I check of it is supported
Ask them? I'm on a 3 and 4g only network for one sim and that has to be in slot 1. Won't work in sim 2 at all. The other sim is an EE UK sim and that works fine in both slots.
Hi Guys
Im getting this phone through a carrier in South Africa and I want to find out wich version im getting.I want to know what are the model numbers for the dual sim and single sim variants and wich single sim variants can be flashed to unlock dual sim capability
Regards
Edit:found out that its the Brazilian XT1635-02.Its dual sim but one of the sim slots is a hybrid sim/sdcard slot
Edit 09\06\2017:Got the phone today.Its XT1635-02 with retry firmware.The second Sim slot has a plastic cover but otherwise from what I can tell it has the hardware in place to accept dual sim
Hey I see that you can use a dual SIM card tray... Where do you get them from ?
Thank you
Edit I have 5g version if that matters
Update - I have UK on ee 5g pro but SIM tray will only take one SIM it's not double sided.
i bought one from ebay
just search for oneplus 7 pro sim tray
I don't think the 5g model will take 2 sims. (Noticed your 2nd post so you presumably already know this )
I don't know if the 5g is dual SIM how can I find out? It has no settings in UI for a 2nd SIM
Anyone know if the 5g version is dual SIM... Two different people say two different things.
Regards
has anyone checked this out for the 5G version yet? might just order one and try it.
The 5G model can do dual-SIM, but you will lose 5G. You literally would have to flash it do a different firmware to achieve this or hope for someone to create a ROM with the 5G firmware that enables dual-SIM. The hardware is capable of dual-SIM, it's just disabled in the 5G firmware.

Due to arrive in 7 to 10 days.
Update: it works perfectly!
How did you get.it to work
Has anyone attempted making their single SIM GP6 or GP6P Dual SIM just by changing the tray?
J/Wing before I order tray and find out....
V....1
The 6 Pro (and I believe the 6) are dual sim, its just one sim is an eSim, not a physical sim. Changing the tray will not make any difference as there is not 2 physical sim readers in the phone.

On OS's like LOS and StratiX I believe it reads 2 IMEI and 1 ESID for eSIM.
It should also be kept in mind that Google Pixels do not have "true" dual sim (sim/sim or sim/esim in this case), but "Dual SIM Dual Standby" (DSDS). So even if the in-built sim card/scanner would be replaced, that doesn't solve the software level limitation to DSDS (only one sim can be used for calls, and the other one for sms and vice versa).
