This probably does not go here, but it is happening on mix 2. So basically, in order to use the foreign phone in Turkey past 120 days, you have to register it with their Telecom regulator. I registered the IMEI in the first card slot, where I have my Turkish sim. In the second one I have Google Fi or Croatian sim. They both worked until 120 days was up. Now every time the Turkish sim is in slot 1, the sim2 cannot register on the network. As soon as I take the Turkish sim out, both Google and Croatian sims cards work in the phone. Anyone have idea how to maybe enable the second sim? Tnx

Data on newer tmobile micro sim cards in US will not work with international htc one x this is a fact now its impossible to manuelly or automaticly set up apn, phone refuses to recognize new micro sim and even when you fill all fields in apn settings and save phone itself just reset everything and delete new apn and message is there is no sim card,however calls and sms works but data no,i tryed even various apps from market like apn global and others its the same its just not possible,i found out only that older tmobile sim cards they call them non gba sim card will work, those are one withouth pictures of people painted so just plain white with pink tmobile letters and they needs to have number 50.01.im using different carrier then tmobile i have data normaly but im trying to sell this phone and i get 2 deals cancelled because of this is there any different solution then chasing old tmobile cards and they are pretty rare now.
There probably won't be a fix coming anytime soon. I'm one of the unfortunate ones without a old micro sim card. However, you could first talk to customer service online, and let them know this issue you're having. (Make sure they put a note on file based on the chat stating that the micro sim card you're looking for is a 50.01 not a 50.05 or any newer.) Then call customer service and tell them that you spoke to a customer rep online and please check the note on file regard sending out a correct replacement micro sim card. I believe they think that a 50.05 micro sim card is also a non gba sim card. I'm hoping the replacement micro sim card arriving next week would be the correct one. If not, cut your old sim card into micro sim size and use it on your One X.
Im not having problems im simple mobile user,i was selling one x and that the reason im asking because data wont work,but i sold the phone anyway that issue with tmobile its because 4G data
My newer micro sim did not allow me to save the Tmobile apn . Switched it to my wife's older sim that I cut down to a micro for her iphone. Entered the T-Mobile APN hit the save button and of course it worked. I was then surprised when I switched my sim back in and it still worked. Had a few 50.01 SIMS ready but did not have to cut any down and call T-Mobile to switch them.

I bought this phone 4 days back and I am facing a sim slot issue. In slot 1 there is no spring so that when I want to bring out the sim I just have to press the sim and it would pop out...instead I have to use a safety pin to get get the sim out...pushing the sim doesn't do anything. Slot 2 works fine...anyone of u faced this problem??? Should I take it to service center already.?

Hi guys I have a problem with my S4, my Sim card is not detected, my problem start 1 month ago, when I come back from vacations fron Mexico, I have a message 2 times a day, " SIM CARD NOT INSERTED".
Unfortunaly my waranty is over last year, so T-mobile send me a new Sim card, and still have the problem.
The strange is that my phone can read a Sim card from Mexican carrier (Telcel), but my T-mobile no, I also tried a diferent Sim
from other carrier and is not detected.
Any ideas to fix this problem? Thank you for you help. I will apreciate.
This is a very common hardware problem. Should be a recall but apparently Samsung can get away with it.

Hi, yes the phone will take 2 Sims. However if you want SD card in, you will need an esim from your provider. The SD card takes up a sim slot. I have mine from EE, 1 sim, an esim and SD card. Look in SIM card manager and it should show option of adding an esim. Which provider are you with?

When you mentioned that you inserted 2 sim, did you remove the sdcard? Or did you use an adapter to enable 2 sim cards and sdcard to function in the phone? If you are using the adapter, or the mod (heating up a simcard, remove the metal chip from simcard, file the microsd card slightly and stick the metal chip of the sim card on the micro sd card), samsung has blocked that since Android 9 with one ui.
For me, i use 1 esim, 1 simcard and 1 microsd card. Works just fine.
Edit: just googled SM-G986B/DS doesn't seem to have esim support. So it's either 2 simcards or 1 simcard and 1 microsd card.

Am with three and ee problem is I can't get through to customer services to get the esim and ive tried online and they say that some of my details are missing (on contract with three and pay as you go on ee)
I have now managed to activate my ee sim just was expecting it to be instantaneous but it took a couple of mins
I've got truephone for data which is o2 and Vodafone at moment until I can get a e sim ...
Question if you use normal sim and esim will they both do 5g ??

it's possible to do through online acct.just check exactly what your ordering as can be a bit misleading, or just go on the chat. Usually takes about 2 days to come through.

Which Country CSC code supports both dual physical sims & E-Sim?
I have a F926B and ordered the dual sim tray on Ebay, but I need to change the firmware for it to work.

Does the box they came in have 2 IMEI numbers on it and a EID ?
What carrier do you use ?

Yes. I am using Single SIM + E-SIM, but i can see double-sided connectors in the sim slot which means it can also support duel physical sims. I have the dual sim tray from the UK, but the other physical sim does not register on my MXO (Mexico) Model.

As far as I know needs to have 2 IMEI numbers on the box. 2 IMEI numbers means it supports dual sim the EID is the E-SIM
You can look under settings - about phone. If it says IMEI (Slot 1) only and no IMEI (Slot 2) then your devices does not support 2 SIM. Just because it has connectors on both sides does not mean device itself supports it. Samsung may have used same type of SIM connector but hasn't given proper dual SIM support in rest of device such motherboard and OS.
Shame on me ... I needed to read that thread here to understand, that my Z Fold 3 is capable to house two SIM cards. When I got my ZF3 a week ago, I was disappointed, that only one physical SIM slot was available (compared with the Note10+) ... I did not realize, that there are two sides on the tray (SM-F926B). So, I'm using two SIM cards with no need to wait, until my providers support the eSIM.
RTFM, I know ...
