Hello,
I figuerd out a curiousity with WP10 and Dual Sim phones. I have a Lumia 640 and 2 Lumia 950 here. One L950 has a SIM Card from Vodafone and run perfect in SIM Slot 1. Data work fine when Wlan is of from 2G to LTE as it should be. In the L640 and the other L950 I use SIM Cards from Provider Telekom / Congstar (which is also Telekom and use same network). Both phones are not able to provide any Data connection when the SIM card is in Slot one while both connect imeditaly once I move the SIM card in Slot 2
I won't care at all to use Slot 2 instead of Slot one but all contacts are without SIM card then and you have to switch all manualy to SIM 2 which is anoying. I verify that I use the exact same settings on Slot 1 and Slot 2 and I also switch back the card but again no Data in Slot. I already find some user with simmilar Problem but nobody had a better solution then to switch to Slot 2. Does anyone here run into simmilar trouble and / or have an idea how to fix that bug?
which sim did you choose for the data connection? 1 or 2
I select 1 once I had the sim in slot1 and 2 when the sim was in slot2. However, with the latest update on fastring it is fixed on the lumia 640 and it has now data in slot 1 as it should be. Unfortunatly the 950 dont take the update. I read that a factory reset can fix it !?
I was traveling recently to Poland and had that exact issue. Polish SIM in SIM1 slot, my homeland SIM in SIM2 and I had issues with getting a data connection. Swapped the PL SIM to SIM2 and it worked.
Issue now resolved with the latest update. Why don't you just enrol your 950 into the slow ring and get the updates?

Hi all,
Just got my Zenfone 2 yesterday and was super stoked, however the SIM2 component is not working. I have two SIM cards, one with Telus and one with Virgin Mobile. (Canadian carriers). No matter which order I put them in, the SIM2 card never works. The Zenfone 2 is able to identify the phone number associated with the SIM card in the SIM2 slot, but it is unable to actually make a network connection.
Anyone know how to get SIM2 working?
just update to the latest rom... I did and got my Sim1 working again!!

SIM2 is 2g only. So it needs to be Rogers (or network that uses Rogers) to work

Only SIM card slot 1 can access 3G/4G/LTE data. SIM card slot 2 can only be used for 2G service which include voice and basic text messaging (Not multimedia messaging services MMS or internet browsing). http://www.asus.com/us/Phones/ZenFone_2_ZE551ML/HelpDesk_knowledge/

I know this is an old thread but i was wondering if anyone has found a solution to this issue? I am having the same issue trying to get Sim2 to recognize a network. The number on the Sim card is recognized. I have tried switching the cards around and the result is always the same. Both providers that I am with are in Canada. One sim is with Bell and the second is with Virgin Mobile.
Are you saying you can't even make calls on sim2?

Hi,
I have 4g data sim in sim slot 1 and regular phone calling sim in sim slot 2.
Slot 1 is used only for data and slot 2 only for phone calls (and mms).
When I'm sharing internet connection with sim slot 1 (regardless of network) and I receive phone call in sim slot 2, the data connection disconnects in sim slot 1.
Is this a bug or a feature, does someone know?
BR,
Ville
Hello
I hope this is the right place to ask and I feel at this point I have been searching Google dry over the past week.
I have a HTC one m8 with dual SIM, as I live in Sweden and work in Denmark, I have a Swedish tre.se in SIM1 and then a Danish 3.dk in SIM2
While I'm in Denmark, both SIM card works and connects to their network, but the second I enter Sweden, SIM2 won't find a connection.
I tried to switch the two cards, but then it's just the Swedish card in SIM2 that won't connect.
From what I have been able to Google , SIM2 should only be using 2g network, but this should be a problem for either of the subscriptions as far as I know.
Is there some special trick, setting or some I need to do to make it connect to 2g
It is original OS on it. I unfortunately can't root it, as my company mail will detect it and block my access. (Worx home by Citrix + touchdown)
What I have tested so far:
Factory reset of the phone.
New SIM card for both cards.
Activate and deactivate flight mode.
Deactivate and activate each SIM from the dual SIM manager.
Switch cards in slots (1->2 and 2->1).
Disable SIM1 ( SIM 2 still didn't connect)
I have also contacted each phone company, but they were to no use and just said it should work hehe
Any suggestions or ideas ? I'm open to all suggestions that doesn't involve getting another phone
Also this is not one of the cheap Chinese dual SIM versions.
Thanks
I may have managed to get a little closer to the cause.
It seems that SIM2 is actually only running over GSM / 2G for god knows what reason, and that is not supported by my phone company i Sweden, which is why it only works in Denmark.
I will try with another phone company called TDC and see if they have the same issues over there or else its bye bye useless dual sim
Hi, I have a A4 lite with latest patches febraury) installed.
since 2 weeks I have a second sim card and it worked fine until a few weeks ago.
my setup is
voice and text message sim1
Data Sim 2
since a few days I'm not reachable on sim1 but on sim 2, only if I switch data to sim1 too, I'm reachable again on my mobilenumber.
I changed the simcard already and got a new one from provider but this did not help.
However I recognized when I switch sim1 to only 3g not 4g it works.
so what could be the issue, and do you think it is a provider ot HW issue?
thanks in advance

I recently started using a second sim. I am trialling another network so it might be temporary or it might not.
I left my original sim in slot 1 and put the new one in slot 2 and set calls and messages to slot 1 and data to slot 2 as mobile data performance is what I want to test and I do not want to impact people trying to call me. What I noticed when I did this that only the new sim card 2 showed as connected under mobile network state sim card 1 was showing as disconnected.
My expectation was that they should both be connected?
