I have been trying to achieve this on the Poco F3:
I want to set SIM2 to be the default card for all new messages/conversations . Is this possible?
You can easily do that in settings.

I don't have that option. Any clues on how to enable it?
U have 2 options:
-to select which SIM will handle the calls (fist one);
-to select which SIM will handle Mobile Data (second one).
As I see, u have both SIMs to handle calls, and SIM1 to handle Mobile Data. I just suppose that SIM which handle calls handles SMS too (I do not have 2 SIMs in my phone), so try to select SIM2 in first option and see what happens with the SMS.

If I select default for calls for example SIM1, nothing changes, I tried to switch mobile data to the other card and still nothing happens too, in fact, i never saw the option showed by FlyingDutchdude in my SIM settings.
The way I have set up SIMS for calls is that it asks which one before calling. But that should have nothing to do with SMS. The data card too, both should not be a dependency for the default SIM card in SMS. Correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks for the reply
Do u have stock ROM? Try do to his combo (calls SIM1 and Mobile Data SIM2) and see if his SMS option is showing/activate on ur phone too.
Seems that what u want is not possible (at least referring to 2020) https://c.mi.com/thread-3148384-1-0.html

Well that's too bad. I'm using latest stable version. I wonder what is the ROM used by @FlyingDutchDude... Thanks

OK I am very curious if i can disable all network modes except gsm or just select only gsm. Now a lot of you are wondering why and pulling out your hair, well in my area there are a lot of places that I get 1 bar of any other network, but if i manually force my phones over to gsm I get full bars and great reception, even in buildings and basements that everyone considers dead spots. So yes there is a legit reason to this and I'm very curious if this can easily be done with the us model?
thanks

You can force the radio to GSM only using the hidden menu..
You can get to this menu by typing in the following code in the phone dialer : *#*#4636#*#*
I always forget the code, so I use an app called Network Switcher which does the exact same thing as the code..
The second SIM slot is GSM voice+text only. So if you ever want to turn off data, I s'pose you could just disable SIM 1 if you had a second one in.

very good I believe this is what I was looking for. It works this way with my current phones and wanted to know if it was in the zp2. some companies/carriers disable this.
I came from a Nexus 5X on Fi and wanted to make it known that I had zero issues running service on my Xperia. As long as you have the app installed and the sim card in everything will work as intended. Fi will claim that the phone cannot be used for service but most likely the phone will only use TMobile if it's unable to truly switch between networks, which is fine. When sending messages in Hangouts it'll note "Sent via Google Voice". Calls over WiFi and cell work well. Couldn't say I've tested out switching between cell and wifi but I would assume Android takes care of that.
One important thing to note as far as I know you will not be able to start Fi service on an Xperia you must have a Google phone or the Moto X4 to activate a Sim card.

So if I understand it right, this is essentially the T-Mobile network (less volte) for Google Fi pricing/plan, correct?

For the most part, plus you get the great functionality of being able to use Hangouts for calling and texting from any device. It's basically Google Voice with T-Mobile cell service. From my experience though where I live I almost exclusively seemed to be using T-Mobile every time I checked when I was on my Nexus. Fi doesn't seem to activate the VoLTE option, nor does it for wifi calling in the Android Dialer. I am on the international version firmware however so that may be part of the issue. Using Hangouts Dialer for calls does work however over both cell and wifi.
Also forgot to mention, all the APNs and everything were already set up when I put my SIM in prior to the first start. Looking around in the mobile networks menu it seems Android and/or Sony's software is capable of switching preferred networks automatically.
so how has ProjectFi bee nworking for you on your xz1 compact?
Hey guys.. a bit of na issue here.
I was abroad and had my roaming on (NO DATA only calls and SMS)
When I returned back home and turned on my data my Facebook Messenger and Whatsapp calls are not working on Mobile data. They work just fine on Wi-FI but not on data.
My APN is configured as it should be (checked that with my provider).
Any thoughts, advice?

good point. I have hangouts since I have gmail anyway.
i'm sure you've checked you have remaining transfer.
1. i'd turn on mobile data, turn the phone off, reinsert sim, turn on.
2. if not - reset network settings.
3. if not - https://www.maketecheasier.com/fix-cellular-data-not-working-on-android/
i'd try 1, 3, 2.
Transfer (balance) checked.
Reinserted SIM. SInce it's dual sim I tried the second one. The second one is working (it's a different provider). Tried swapping cards and the issue follows card.
Reset network settings to no avail.
Tried changing APN to no avail.
Carrier keeps telling me they can't do anything. I'm thinking of doing a factory reset but I don't want to brick my phone.
Anything else I could try?
Check your settings according to mine which work fine.

Hey guys just an update.. For some reason it started working.. I tried @locovibe and @boe323 advice but id didn't help.. and then after a week or two it started working...
Hi all,
Some months earlier, I was able to use call forwarding on my airtel SIM in galaxy F62 for voicemail purposes
But now, it just doesn't let me use supplementary services in SIM SLOT 1 like call waiting and forwarding... though Sim Slot 2 is letting me forward the calls...

Can someone please help me troubleshoot the problem I am facing?
PS: I used alliance shield X to open IMS settings once and I am not sure if that was the reason supplementary services not working in Sim 1

May be your shield x broke call supplementary setting. Just backup your device and do a factory reset. If doesn't work the you need to flash system with ODIN

Thanks for the reply, but I inserted my SIM in my mother's phone and the Supplementary services didn't work either..
So I guess the problem lies with SIM only..
Is there some setting or something from where I can just toggle those services on and off ? Or should I contact my telecon operator?

If soo, then contact telecom operator to get a new sim with same number
Has anyone else has this option greyed out?
I have the option to choose between 5G,4G,3G,or 2G (Settings > Network & Internet > SIMs > Preferred Network Type).
Yep they've greyed it out even though my phone was bought simfree (unlocked)

If you scroll down a bit further, don't you have a Preferred Network setting?
Nope just a 'Choose Network' which is also greyed out
I'm at a loss, hopefully, someone else will chime in.
FWIW, mine is a US Model, puchcased from T-Mobile, SIM unlocked (using a T-Mobile SIM Card).

You could always just use the dialer code *#*#4636#*#*
Turns out certain networks have the option disabled, I had the same problem when using an ID Mobile sim but my Vodafone sim was fine. To fix the problem make sure your rooted as I don't know of any other way other than the one I'm going to show.
Use a file manage that can show you root files (I use MiXplorer)
Go to /data/user_de/0/com.android.phone/files
Look for a XML file that starts with "carrier", If you have more than one then you've used more than 1 SIM in the phone, Make sure you've opened the XML file for your SIM.
Look for the line "hide_preferred_network_type_bool" and change it from true to false.
Reboot.
Profit.
Hope it works for you.

I'm with Smarty (owned by Three) which also uses the Three network like idmobile so it looks like Three maybe the cul·prit
I'm on I'd mobile which uses threes network.
Type this *#*#4636#*#* in dialer, it enters a test mode.
Click on phone info which takes you to another screen.
Scroll down and you'll see a slightly gray box that if you click on that and scroll through you'll find LTE only.
Click it and that's it, 4g network only.
Restart phone, job done.
Pretty sure my battery also seems to last longer
