Hi.
In a dual sim phone there is an option to choose a default card for calls or not to, with a must to do it before taking a call.
Is there a way to set some of the contacts (fe. favourite ones) to be automatically called through sim card 1, and the rest, to be called through the card I choose while making a call?
Thanks.
I can't find an option on the default dialler
I don't believe that's a system setting/option. It would have to be in the phone/diar app, which isn't on the stock one. Or a dual sim app that has it and I don't know of any.

They're talking about having select contacts (not all calls) set to always use a certain sim then for the rest of the contacts or when dialing a number not in contacts to always be asked what sim to use. Like a mix of the two options. When you select a default calling sim then ALL call use that sim until you change that setting, which isn't the same thing they asked.

I don't find preferred sim setting for messaging in the dual sim settings on ZF2!
Everyone knows there is option to choose to send message from sim1 or sim2 when sending the message manually.
But it is needed for messaging (when using tasker or when anyother app wants to send a message from your phone).
Any one have a work around of some kind?
Thanks.

Secure Settings has option under Device Settings -> global -> multi_sim_sms 1 or 2
It even not require reboot.
Sorry if this is not the correct place for this.
One thing I miss from the Motorola dual sim is the smart sim selection integration into dialer/contact list screens.
This feature will automatically learn which is the preferred sim to use for each contact and this can be changed at dial time. It can't be set on the contact edit screen and is really not needed to, isn't a hassle you have to go thru and usually helps a transparent dual sim operation.
When you choose to dial someone for the first time it will ask which sim to use, the next time you'll dial it will automatically select that sim for that contact BUT on the calling screen you'll have a switch sim button for you to change, which is also useful when you are in a place where signal for the current selected sim is not good, pressing this will re initiate the call but thru the other sim.
This function can be disabled on the dual sim settings screen for those that use some per time of the day or any other different reason.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have an issue that some of the contacts in my phone-book use only 1 SIM for calling without asking for SIM.
I have selected "Ask First" option for calling in the settings also. I need the normal pop-up SIM selection menu for all contacts before calling.
Please help.
Thanks in Advance.
Since yesterday I'm the proud owner of an OP3.
Today I have inserted the 2nd sim for all my business call, but this is where the questions starts raising
I thought it was just 'normal' the create contact groups and have the phone automatically pick sim 1 or 2 based on the contact group a contact is in.
So this brings me to 2 main questions I have:
- Is it possible to set-up contact groups? (I can see the options within the contacts app)
- Is it possible to have an automatic profile for contact using sim 1 or sim 2?
- (is it also possible to send all contact over sim 2 based on the app where the phone numbers are in? For business purposes I use Good for Enterprise for mail and contacts. It would be awesome to select a contact in this app and to dail the number over sim 2)
Thank you
Need near the same here.
It Will be really great to separate contact form sim and allow to configure a default sim card to use depending on number called.
I use Dual SIM Selector from the store. You can assign individual numbers, contacts or groups to each SIM.
I have a work group setup to assign colleagues to my work SIM. If a call from a new number comes in then calling it back will automatically use the SIM where the call was received.
My options are also set to prompt which SIM when calling a new number, but default to personal SIM if I don't choose within 5 seconds. This means I don't have issues when on hands-free in the car.
I really can't understand why they release dual SIM phones without these features as standard. My last 3 dual SIM phones, and my wife's Mi 5 Pro are all the same. That's how I stumbled across Dual SIM Selector
Or use True Phone
Hi,
I have a couple of questions about the stock dialler on OP3 running 3.5.4 CB.
1. When using 2 SIMs, Can we select the default SIM for a out going call for contacts at one go ?
Currently when I select the number for a call, a pop up (Call with ) shows up with option to select one of the two SIMs and a check box to "Always use this for calls" lets me do that. I would like to know if this can be done somewhere else, say at the contact detail level? how would i change the option once set using the current method?
2. In the Dialler, what does All calling accounts setting do? clicking on it shows a blank screen. Is it related to SIP accounts?
Dialler -> Settings -> Call settings ->All calling accounts.
Cheers.

That is for all outgoing calls. I am looking at setting default SIM1 for some contacts and SIM2 for others.

You need an app to do that.
I use "Dual SIM Selector" and it works pretty well.
