I was wondering if there is a possibility if there are apps with a function that blocks calls based on receiving simcard.
For my specific situation I have 2 simcards in my Oneplus 3. Sim1 is without data. Sim2 is for with 4G data.
Now during my holiday I would like to make use of calling via Sim1 without data, but only use the data from Sim2, without the possibility of being called on the Sim2.
I was wondering if you guys ideas to make this happen, thanks in advance!
You can bar incoming calls on any specific sim in the call settings.
Go to dialer. Tap. The 3 dots options menu on the top right. Go to settings > calling accounts > click on the sim on which you wish to bar incoming calls. Choose call barring and then from off put it on all.
That should work. But this might be network dependent. I mean this sends a request to your service provider. And it happens at their end. If your service provider allows this. It should work fine.

it looks like the No Internet Calling Account issue is back on the M8. I am able to place calls if I dial the number fine via Wi-Fi calling, however when attempting to place a call from a contact card it gives the "There are no Internet Calling Accounts" error.
Incoming calls go straight to VM, SMS and MMS work.
Changing the settings from "Wi-Fi Preferred" to "Cell Network Preferred" result in me dropping WiFi Calling and it not coming back, I don't have strong enough signal to use my phone on Cell Network
Any suggestions or ideas how to make this work?
This appears to only be affecting my contacts, I can place calls from contacts in Touchdown and numbers that I dialed without an issue. Also is happening when I have wifi calling disabled for contacts, I am able to receive calls now though
Any solution to this? I am having the same problem
I use a i9192, with 2 SIMs:
SIM1 is GSM, voice only.
SIM2 is dual mode (WCDMA-GSM), data unlimited (and data only, no voice service) and often sharing as a wifi hot-spot
SIM1 never rings on incoming calls. The calls go straigth to the answering machine.
SIM1 can do outgoing calls.
Can anybody help me receive calls ?
Got it. I was not used to the Samsung dialer...
In the call settings, I turned the Call rejection -> auto reject mode to Off.
It works fine now.
I can't seem to send messages on SIM2 or choose how my call gets through, there is no sim icon in either messaging or in the call settings. I have H818N.
I can assign contacts permanently to either SIM - which gets used for calling but not for SMS.
Also any way to assign SMS also to particular sim for particular contacts?
EDIT: I can change global setting on which sim to use through the notification icons, but any way to do it on a per call/sms basis?
PS1: I have updated the firmware to the latest version
PS2: Any dual sim good SMS app?
Same problem here on h818n.
Did you find out yet?
As you said, you can assign the default sim for calls and sms from the quicksettings in the status bar dropdown. Couldn't find a way to make the dialer just ask wich sim to use each time tho.
As sms app i like the Google Messenger app.
As dialer i'm trying TrueDialer.
On both u can tap the sim icon and pick a sim b4 calling\sending the sms.
Has this issue been solved through software updates by LG, Or do we have to resort to using third party apps?
Nopes not yet. I still can't put a default sim for SMS. Also if I have set a default sim for a contact, I can only use that sim, which is a major inconvenience. There should be an easy way to call from the other sim.
Also would suggest using the default sms app - dual sim support of other apps is sketchy at best.
Not sure how many people out there got eSIM working with AT&T on their Fold 3. But 2 or so weeks ago I went into AT&T and got them to get eSIM working on my Fold 3. It's been working great till recently. I think it might have been with adding a 2nd line (Tello).
SIM1 = Tello
eSIM = AT&T
right now Tello works great. AT&T... I can get Text and data but I can't make any phone calls or receive any phone calls. Anyone else using the DUAL setup?? I went in to get a new eSIM and same thing. Can't make or receive call but I can text and receive text and get data.
I have removed the Tello Sim card for good measure. Rebooting a good dozen times and no matter what I can't get AT&T to dial out or get calls.
Any ideas??
Honestly sounds like the esim from att wasn't provisioned correctly. I'd try to get them to remove it from their system and readd it

i was warned about this scenario by an ATT Manager; he said that the physical sim had to be an ATT sim. i have an unlocked ATT Z Fold 3, however, i haven't tried using another carrier's sim/esim. I also have a network unlocked, ATT S22U with a T-Mobile eSim and an ATT physical sim. phone calls and text msgs work fine, as long as i use Samsung Messages (no the Google version). if i use Google's version of messages, group chats don't always work.
I have an unlocked fold 3 and use a Google Fi physical sim, and had a GSMA (AT&T) eSIM with Red Pocket. Both worked perfectly fine with no problems. Phone calls, texts and data were flawless on both networks.
Google Messages does have an issue it with dual sim. For example while connected to the mobile network if your preferred sim is set to the physical sim, but you try to send an mms with the number associated with the eSIM you will have to switch to the eSIM to send it. Chat messages are effected the same way. Text messages don't seem to be impacted that I have encountered. Receiving messages seems to be effected in the same manner. Google Messages works normally when connected to WiFi and using RCS Chat
Since we can only have one data connection active on one sim at the same time, Google Messages gets weird about it. The issue is not present with Samsung Messages or Textra. Until Google updates the Messages app to fix the issue you will have to either change the preferred sim back and forth, use RCS on WiFi only, use Samsung Messages or use another 3rd party messaging app that has dual sim properly working.
Also be aware changing the preferred sim will also make it the default for messaging and phone calls. For some reason we lack the setting to specify which sim for calling and messaging. So if your eSIM is the primary number you use and switch to the physical sim, all your calls/messages will come from the physical sim. Using the shortcuts i mention below won't fully resolve this either. You can use an app like multi sim selector to help with the calling, but the messages you will have to be aware of what number your messaging from (sim 1 or sim 2) or the above suggestions.
@OP - Might be worth getting a hold of AT&T and asking them to make sure the eSIM is provisioned correctly on your (and AT&T) end. If it was working and then not it sounds like an AT&T issue.
I'm not sure if this applies here, but I've read a few comments on the AT&T forums AT&T prepaid doesn't play well with eSIM. I can't verify that to be true or not since I don't have the prepaid service through AT&T.
Meanwhile make sure you have set the eSIM up properly in the sim card manager. At first my eSIM did not have the APN selected as active, I had to manaually mark it as such... Secondly does the call/text issue occur when the eSIM is set as the primary sim? If so go through and double check the sim card manager settings so you have DSDS enabled.
You might want to get an app like Quick Shortcut Maker and look for "Mobile Network".. There are a few sim manager settings that might help resolve some issues your having. I attached an image to help find the shortcuts.
Hello,
I recently moved from Turkey to US and replaced my SIM. When people call me, the calls do not register at all until I receive indication that they have left a voice message. When looking at my settings, the SIM cards & mobile networks setting shows the SIM card, however, the Default for calls area is gray and is set to the third setting, which is a circle with a line through it (not SIM 1 or 2). I have tried EVERYTHING I can think of and cannot change that setting, which I suspect is the issue for not seeing my calls. Any thoughts out there on how to change this?
Thanks!
