Never seen a samsung phone with space for an sdcard and two sims, just with a sim + sim/sdcard slot. But some have managed to fit a sim and sdcard into one slot by shaving the sim card really thin.

It really depends on region and which ones your region decides to bring in. For me I'm in malaysia, went to sirim website to check on the certification and all 3 s20 in malaysia has esim as sim1, a single sim slot for sim2 and a dedicated sdcard slot.

Sooooooo I've noticed there is 2 variants maybe more but the 2 I've noticed are single SIM and Hybrid SIM
Does the single SIM also have a microsd slot? Or do I have to get the hybrid version ?
The single SIM version should have a SD card slot.
Get a hybrid dual SIM version if you can, often it doesn't cost any more though not offered in all markets.

Both have the ability to use a micro SD card the hybrid version allows you to use 2 Sims at the same time or 1 SIM card and 1 SD card, get the hybrid SIM it costs the same
Hello,
I'm using Samsung S20 Ultra. I noticed that sim card management opens after each reboot.
Just using one Simcard and a micro sd card. No eSIM.
Is it normal?
Never noticed that behavior before on my former devices, only once during initial setup.
Thanks
Same with my S20 Ultra
I confirm same happens with mine. Does anyone have a solution for this??
It doesn't happen on mine (regular SIM, no SD card). Is yours a dual-SIM variant?
it also happens with my s20+ 5G. It is dual sim (i only use one) but it does that even if i try without the sim. Someone can explain how to disable that?
Happens on my S20+ 4G DualSim too. Super annoying.
Same here, S20 Ultra, SM-G988B/DS.
1 Sim inserted, no micro SD, no esim.
Ill reboot only after updates so no problem for me
same here but i understand is normal with the esims = as the app is trying to restart services albeit there's no esim in use
Hi!
The solution is in samsung forums https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S20-S20-S20-Ultra/S20-ultra-sim-manager-comes-on-at-startup/m-p/1612501#M2338

Simply pressing ok when the sim card manger pops up is much faster and less cumbersome than this "workaround" [emoji1787]
Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G (SM-G988B)
Just to make sure, can I use one e-SIM + one nanoSIM + 512GB microSDCX at the same time?

Yep, you can have eSim + sim + SDcard... [emoji6]View attachment 4993187
can confirm too using europe model S20 (G980F)!
the phone is able to use two mobile plans simultaneously - it can be 2 SIM cards inserted or 1 physical sim and 1 ESIM plan.
if you are willing to use the esim option, you can use the 2nd physical sim slot for sd card and still have 2 plans working
I'm using a nanoSIM, eSim and MicroSD card too.
Hello
I have the s20 plus 5g uk model SM-986B/DS
I have tried to put in two physical sims one shows the other isnt showing and its like there is only one sim in
I have looked at you tube and Google some people say its one nano sim and one esim and others say I can put in two physical sims
I only will use dual sim when I know I'm going to a crap 3 uk signal area so not overly concerned but I want to know if I am doing something wrong and have miss understood how the phone works
I normally have sim and sd card in
thanks
Chris

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.

The good thing to know is that you can have both 2x sims card + a sd card even on a Global variant with only a single hybrid sim tray.
All you need is to be fearless, a candle and some glue
Used that method on mine, working like a charm.

thx for tip?

I suppose you put the sdcard on top of the sim. How did they fit in though? The slot is quite thin.

Yes. I wont lie to you you kind of have to brute force it back inside, but it gets in and out in the end with some patience and some located strength (as long as you do not keep taking them in and out all the time it is ok).
To make it work you have to 'peal' the Sim chip off its plastic support. That's basically the trick. But that's an handy one.
What I wonder thought is if the Indian flavor of the phone with that extra dedicated Sim tray, has an hybrid tray bellow, meaning wondering if that trick could make them have 3x sims + 1x SD. I suppose not, but still curious.
