Hi just wondering if this is correct
I bought my Z play from handtec.co.uk
Model XT-1635-02 I'm in the UK and that particular model according to a site says it's the Brazilian country or region where sold , or is it just the generic unlocked version , maybe a stupid question but what the hell" just i wondered if it would effect my my carrier who is Life Mobile who are part of and use the EE network as by default the apn setting always defaults to something different other than the ee apn my network states to be the correct apn , although 3G and 4G work I do notice alot of signal loss/drop outs and if I have H+ at the time it comes back up G and I have to restart device to get H+ back every time ,, very annoying
Thoughts any one ? [emoji51] [emoji106]

Don't think anyone has taken the chance of bricking by flashing dual SIM firmware on a device that shipped with single SIM. I ain't trying it, even though dual SIM would be very convenient in my current circumstances.
I removed the 2nd sim cover, set build.prop as per the Moto x play thread. Net work is recognized but no signals

Okay so I ran a network scan. And every phone like the galaxy s2 or thrill would show umts under att followed by gsm.under as well. How come the nitro shows wcdma?

You won't have this option available unless you carrier unlock your phone. They're available on ebay for like $3. I had mine unlocked pretty much immediately after it arrived.
ATT Atrix 4G on T-Mobile UK was also showing WCDMA. Just another label for UMTS.

Is unlocking the phone as simple as entering a code? And is it reversible (if ever necessary)?
NCK unlocking is completely legal, permanent, doesn't void your warranty, and you're not hacking your device in any way. You don't need to worry about reversing it. It is as simple as entering a code
But it's also unnecessary unless you plan on switching carriers or traveling overseas and popping in a new SIM.

Unlocking a phone is NOT reversible. Its ONLY for putting another sim card from another carrier in ur phone to use it on another network. And using a AT&T sim card Its still just greyed out. I have to use my Orange UK sim to be able to do a network search.. And that UK sim lets me use 3G data on AT&T`s network
Like above u can see I was running on the T-Mobile Network as well
Thanks for the info guys. I guess I won't worry about unlocking it unless I plan to sell it.
To the op. You happen to get 4g on T-Mobile? Also does your tmobile simcard crash on the nitro? Happens a bit to me

I cant. With my AT&T Sim Card in I cant Scan.
With my Orange SIm Card I can
In my Galaxy S4 mini's whole lifetime only twice has a micro sim been inserted. The first time I inserted a SIM card inside there, it worked immediatelly without any problems as soon as I powered on the phone (the sim card was cut from a normal one manually by me).
Then I left the phone unused without a SIM inside it for about 2 weeks and just today I tried to put back the same SIM card and the phone always displays "No SIM". Tried taking it on and off like a thousand times but still no effect.
The card is working on another phone but with an adapter as I don't have another phone that uses only Micro-SIM so I can't really test.
Any ideas?
EDIT:
Here is an image of what the SIM looks like and how it is inserted. I would greatly appreciate if someone from here checks the exact form and placement of theirs and compare it to this image:

Are you saying it could be possible that I just cut the SIM card badly? I'm planning on heading to the store and asking for an original Micro-SIM from my carrier but I'm afraid that might not be the solution and it would be a waste of money.
Yes, I would try it

you can buy another if you think is broken from this link

Problem is, all of my friends use normal SIM.
I just watched a video how a person types a hidden code into the dialer which takes him to an advanced service mode and from there after choosing some options, the "No SIM" error immediatelly disappears even without the need of a reboot. I believe he reset the modem or something.
I thought it was a firmware related issue but that might not be the case also as I flashed two different firmwares (both for my region) with Odin and it's still the same.
Is it normal that the center pin is a bit down than the left and right one?
There was previously a user who broke one of the sim card reader clips. It could be possible?

Yep it turned out that was the case, no firmware issues or anything of the sort. Luckaly mine wasn't actually broken but it just somehow went into the bottom too much. I used a small needle and tweaked it a bit hoping to push it back up and achieved it without breaking it.
Now it reads my cut Micro SIM just fine. :victory:

Scary that those pins can bend so easily.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
I've just had the same problem on my mom's S4 mini: central pin lower than the other two. Bending it up a bit solved the problem.
In fact on other S4 minis the three pins are level.

I own a Nexus 5 and I'm currently on the fence regarding the Nexus 5X, but dual sim would mean insta-buy for me. I currently carry my Nexus 5 and another low-end Android while I'm at work, but I use that other phone only for receiving calls and making calls to other corporate phones, so it would mean carrying just one phone. Sadly I doubt it will be dual sim.
dual sim is pretty cool but definitely isn't something most users would use, even power users IMO.
somehow beneficial ... but i dont see this as an option... for now..
I will buy any Nexus phone come with dual sim support. I'm not happy with how Samsung update their phones, especialy dual sim variant

Dual SIM is pretty handy for those who vacation or have a second home in another country or another state. I live in London UK and we have a vacation home in France . A French SIM is essential for local French people who want o call us and don't want an international call. I bought a Moto G just for that but would like to go back to Nexus next time.

Not working.
Yes the guide is for the s7 but basically same tray on gx8.
Not working.
I wonder if the phone switches off second sim when detects SD card.
Anyone with ideas?

Hello brukutu,
No, the phone doesn't switch off when the SD card is activated.
We recommend that you put your SIM card in another device to verify that your SIM card is working properly. If it doesn't work, we recommend contacting your carrier as it is a possibility that your SIM card is damaged. (ED)

yes it works on all dual sim models. i am currently using 2 sims and sd card on G8 and its workig like charm. all u need to do is make sure u are putting cut side of sim in right direction.

best way to chip the sim off from plastic is heat plastic side of sim. make sure to mark cut side of sim before doing this. no scissor required.

Cannot emphasize this too much - the paint I used to mark was gone after a second; maybe because of this, maybe for some other reason, but my sim cannot be read. Ordered a new one, going to try it again
Ok, Im currently living in Japan and we have access to 4G+ or carrier aggregation. I have the unlocked Moto z play (its not available thru the carriers here so moto sells it directly) XT1635-02 and just chatted to motorola support about 4G+ support.
While the customer service representative was kind and trying to be as helpful as they could be, I wasnt that confident that they answered my question. So Can anyone clarify, Does the moto z play support 4G+ ??? The CSR said "it is not automatic like my friend's zenfone 3" so I have to turn on data (which I have on all the time but still no 4G+ symbol)
Thanks
After updating to Nougat, my Moto Z Play is showing LTE+ (for LTE-Advanced)

Yes
Guys, did someone manage to confirm that it supports carrier aggregation? There is a place here that I am 100% sure that has CA and I am very close to the cell, because its the headquarters of the telecom company, but my Z Play doesn't detect it at all and speed is just normal 4G speed. My model is XT1635-02 dual sim.
All of you who post screenshots, can you post a screenshot from the cell info page while you are shown the icon 4G+ or LTE+? Its accessible by typing *#*#4636#*#*, Phone Information -> bottom, the values EARFCN are important. This shows what band are you on. (if you don't know what's this, google EARFCN calculator and when you enter the value there, it gives you the exact frequency that the phone is receiving signal) I didn't manage to get 2 bands on the same time - either is 1575 (band 3 1800mhz) or 2850 (band 7 2600mhz) but not both at the same time which is what actually 4G+ ot LTE+ is - to be connected to two bands at the time.
Thanks
Yes 4G+ works automatically i am pretty sure
