Hi guys
i want to buy " HTC Desire 816 "
but i want to ask
dose the 1 Sim version get Different from the Dual Sim Version
i mean dose the Dual Sim version get Freezes like the Samsung Dual Sim phones ?
or the hardware get changes from the two versions
or its hard to find the Solving problems for the Dual Sim Version because the dual Sim is not very famous
In general which version is the best to buy?
thanks all
There exactly the same except the dual sim has two sim cards, nothing else is changed.
However single sim has NFC and dual sim does not, so if thats a big deal for you stick with single sim.
Also, single sim supports LTE but dual sim supports only upto 3G, and only in one of its slots.
however, I've had no problem regarding Mods and Roms for my Dual Sim 816, and it's the best dual sim phone I've had as I haven't had any network and antenna problems with it.
thank you guys
i asked this question because in Samsung devices the Dual Sim Version freezes a lot
and i hadn't use HTC Devices ever
i think i will take the Dual Sim version
because my country doesn't support the LTE by the way
and i don't use the NFC already
but i want to ask some other questions
winch version is more famous ?
dose the devices has notification LED ?
and what do you think is the Negatives of the device ?
thanks all

If you don't NEED two SIMs, go with the single SIM. Simply because it does have the extra features just in case.
There both just as "famous" and they bith have a notification light.

i need the Dual Sim because in my country we can't make calls from the " 3G " lines
we have to buy a line for make calls , send messages
and another line to surf internet by " 3G "
and thank you for your answer

I can't believe they stopped allowing two numbers on one sim..... my orange nokia phone back in 1991 had the possibility for two numbers on one sim... was brilliant for one for work and one for personal all through the same phone....
Takes 20 years to bring it back - LOL!

how do dual sim cards work?
It is hard to get much info on dual sim cards from googling. Anyone know if you can use both cards where they switch automatically and you receive calls from either phone number. Can you use the data service from one card while being open to receiving calls on the other card. Or do you manually switch between the cards without having to physically change cards.
Tmobile android is great in most of PDX but useless in some of the outlying burbs. It would help to have prepaid att as a backup number
From prior experience you had to reboot the phone to change SIM card
There are some here but they list them as being untested with the Desire yet.
http://www.simore.ch/en/mobile_phone_accessory/HTC/Desire.html
They do have a video on there if you dig around showing it in use in a Hero and seems pretty good. No need to reboot phone.

Using these dual sim thingies can I receive a call on either line and pickup or will I only be able to pickup the active line?
-------------------------------------
Sent from my HTC Desire
You cannot use two sim cards simultaneously on the Desire. It has to be only one and to switch by rebooting the phone, because Desire has only one active GSM radio. The phones that operate two sim cards simultaneously have two GSM radios which operate independently from each other.
Hi,
Just wondering if anyone knows of any dual sim adapters that work with the HTC Wildfire? Tried googling but the sites that come up only list adapters but do not seem to promise that these adapters work with this phone.
Have a personal number and a work number that are separate and it would be handy to just carry around one phone.
Thanks
Dual Sim for wildfire
You got me interested in this and my search came up with this company that says it does work with the wildfire
cant post the link because of forum restrictions, but if you google the company at simore.ch you will be able to find it from there. It says the platinum and platinum plus are compatible.
They seem really good and have videos showing how to do every step. The only thing that worries me is having to cut up the sim cards which I hear is normal for a dual sim adapters.
I just got a 26th gen cutting Magic Sim dual sim for my HTC Desire from a seller on ebay (he was the cheapest seller by a mile) i've also tried it in my girlfriends Wildfire and it worked a treat!
If you want info on the seller i got it off just PM me as i doubt i'd be allowed to post it on here.
Cheers

yeah, love to have one too
i advice you to do not do that becuas it use so much of the battery near 3x
when you have the duel sim in it.. can you be could by both numbers. or do you have to switch firts to be reached at one of the numbers..
Because i'm loocking for somthing that i can be reachable at two number at the same time..
sorry of my englisch.
Its extremely unlikely that both will be reachable at the same time by using those adapters, although I havent seen / used them personally.
If you want a dual standby phone, get a proper Dual SIM phone.
Dual Sim
Here in the philippines its normal to have dual sim phones, also we do have tripple sims because we have 3 different network provider....
But i dont suggest to have dual sim on HTC
1 it destroys the quality
2 it voids warranty
3 it suck to put dual sim on HTC phones. it lowers the value

I have never ever seen an Android phone with a dual sim... But I want to
this could be very functional. and could save a lot of time switching cards.
there are a few dual sim android phones like http://www.fonearena.com/blog/33946/motorola-xt800-dual-sim-android-phone-review.html
but only 550mhz cpu...
all the dual sim androids are gsm+cdma
sadly these dual sim adapters cant do dual sim standby....
meaning u cant call or recieve calls and sms when u select the first sim on the second sim

Check out Motorola XT800. Its dual SIM (GSM+CDMA) phone, but too expensive for its specifications.
http://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_xt800_zhishang-3073.php
EDIT: unreal3000, didn't notice that you too provided a link of the same model.
would this be a form of plug and play or would you need to solder it on mobo of the phone?

none of them need soldering...but most of them require you to cut both the sims
to make them smaller...dont worry it wont damage the sim and they give u an adapter incase you want to use the sims again....but the ones which can use 3g are much more expensive!
cutting them in pieces to make em fit wont be a prob, you could always get a new sim with your old phone number. and that it doesnt require soldering is a BIG +++ to this. im getting more and more interrested.
From my experience (and i have a fair bit) its a piece of cake. Never had any issues what-so-ever
With such a dualsimadaptor do you have to reboot to use the other sim or can you switch between the two simcards when your phone is on?
sorry for my noob question

Evil Samsung does not sell dual sim models in Australia... Is there a way to use two sims in their single sim phones? Was this ever possible with S7 and S8 phones?
I have an international model S7 edge but decided to get an Australian S9+ because they receive better service and support here, well, actually I broke the screen of that S7 edge, again, and the repairing cost by a 3rd party just made it pointless, all because Samsung Australia won't repair it for me (for a more reasonable A$210) for it is an international model (UAE).
If this is technically possible, best case scenario I just need to find a correct SIM tray?
You can use two different SIMs if the phone is not locked to a particular network.
However, if the phone is not Dual SIM, you will not manage to use both cards at the same time.

So you are saying the hardware is there, but the software won't allow me to use both SIMs at the same time?
I take it as flashing dual SIM ROM would not only void warranty, but beats the purpose of buying an authentic local market device in the first place?

No, what I mean is that you can use two SIM by switching them and having only one at a time inserted in the phone.
If the phone is not dual SIM, you can have two SIM cards working on it only if the phone is a Hybrid Dual SIM.
If the phone is SINGLE SIM, you can't do anything about it.
Hope that this answers your question.
I've been given a GM960F S9 from work to use as my company phone.
From what I can read online there is no difference between GM960F and /FD in Europe and some phones have the mode 960F and are dual sim capable.
I managed to source a S9 Sim Dual Sim tray but when I put two sims in there only one shows up - is this a software restriction / is it possible to override and make this dual sim?
Thanks!

what firmware are you running? also, if you look in the last 2 or 3 pages of threads, there is talk about the dual sim having issues. Check those threads for a possible solution

Using Baseband G960FXXU4CSE1 Build PPR1.180610.011G960FXXU4CSE3
My question concerns a phone that came with a single sim tray, is it possible to put a dual sim tray in and get the dual sim card functionality working??

if it physically doesnt have 2 sim readers, then no. If its the g960f vs the g960f/ds then no. Do you have a dual sim card tray that you can pop in it?

I do, I put one in there and it didn't seem to recognise the second SIM, I just wondered if there was a physical difference but I guess the difference is Hardware based then if there is no overriding it?

well, if it fit in there, that leads me to believe that it also has a reader. Have you flashed the g960f/ds firmware?

I have not - I will try flashing that and seeing if it can recognise the duo sim tray.
