I recently started using a second sim. I am trialling another network so it might be temporary or it might not.
I left my original sim in slot 1 and put the new one in slot 2 and set calls and messages to slot 1 and data to slot 2 as mobile data performance is what I want to test and I do not want to impact people trying to call me. What I noticed when I did this that only the new sim card 2 showed as connected under mobile network state sim card 1 was showing as disconnected.
My expectation was that they should both be connected?

Hi all,
Just got my Zenfone 2 yesterday and was super stoked, however the SIM2 component is not working. I have two SIM cards, one with Telus and one with Virgin Mobile. (Canadian carriers). No matter which order I put them in, the SIM2 card never works. The Zenfone 2 is able to identify the phone number associated with the SIM card in the SIM2 slot, but it is unable to actually make a network connection.
Anyone know how to get SIM2 working?
just update to the latest rom... I did and got my Sim1 working again!!

SIM2 is 2g only. So it needs to be Rogers (or network that uses Rogers) to work

Only SIM card slot 1 can access 3G/4G/LTE data. SIM card slot 2 can only be used for 2G service which include voice and basic text messaging (Not multimedia messaging services MMS or internet browsing). http://www.asus.com/us/Phones/ZenFone_2_ZE551ML/HelpDesk_knowledge/

I know this is an old thread but i was wondering if anyone has found a solution to this issue? I am having the same issue trying to get Sim2 to recognize a network. The number on the Sim card is recognized. I have tried switching the cards around and the result is always the same. Both providers that I am with are in Canada. One sim is with Bell and the second is with Virgin Mobile.
Are you saying you can't even make calls on sim2?

Hi,
I have 4g data sim in sim slot 1 and regular phone calling sim in sim slot 2.
Slot 1 is used only for data and slot 2 only for phone calls (and mms).
When I'm sharing internet connection with sim slot 1 (regardless of network) and I receive phone call in sim slot 2, the data connection disconnects in sim slot 1.
Is this a bug or a feature, does someone know?
BR,
Ville
Hello,
I figuerd out a curiousity with WP10 and Dual Sim phones. I have a Lumia 640 and 2 Lumia 950 here. One L950 has a SIM Card from Vodafone and run perfect in SIM Slot 1. Data work fine when Wlan is of from 2G to LTE as it should be. In the L640 and the other L950 I use SIM Cards from Provider Telekom / Congstar (which is also Telekom and use same network). Both phones are not able to provide any Data connection when the SIM card is in Slot one while both connect imeditaly once I move the SIM card in Slot 2
I won't care at all to use Slot 2 instead of Slot one but all contacts are without SIM card then and you have to switch all manualy to SIM 2 which is anoying. I verify that I use the exact same settings on Slot 1 and Slot 2 and I also switch back the card but again no Data in Slot. I already find some user with simmilar Problem but nobody had a better solution then to switch to Slot 2. Does anyone here run into simmilar trouble and / or have an idea how to fix that bug?
which sim did you choose for the data connection? 1 or 2
I select 1 once I had the sim in slot1 and 2 when the sim was in slot2. However, with the latest update on fastring it is fixed on the lumia 640 and it has now data in slot 1 as it should be. Unfortunatly the 950 dont take the update. I read that a factory reset can fix it !?
I was traveling recently to Poland and had that exact issue. Polish SIM in SIM1 slot, my homeland SIM in SIM2 and I had issues with getting a data connection. Swapped the PL SIM to SIM2 and it worked.
Issue now resolved with the latest update. Why don't you just enrol your 950 into the slow ring and get the updates?

I already have my 9650 on the fast ring but no update appears. WIll try the slow ring now, maybe it apperars then. Some Boards already reprot that MS has trouble to provide the update to 950 / 950XL
Hi, I'm using Galaxy s21fe running the latest one UI available, and for some reason I cannot set a SIM card for data connection and the other for calls, there's just a Primary SIM, which do both with no choice to make a SIM for just one use, it's data and call for one SIM only, how can this be fixed?
You can select the use of the SIM card in the settings in the SIM card manager, only when you turn on data transmission in the phone and both SIM cards are active.

Sorry, i don't understand what you mean
This is the way Samsung phones work - you can't set one for data and one for calls like you can on the Pixel or iPhone.
Hello guys!
Recently I adquire a Rog phone 6.
And I have a question regarding the use of mobile data while incoming calls.
According to the specs, this model have dual sim stand by. Basically, I run sim 1 for calls and sim 2 for data, when an incoming call is entering into Sim 1, the data turns off.
I used to have a galaxy, and when this happens automatically switches to data Sim 1 for not loosing internet connection while on the call.
Sorry to bother you, and if it's a silly question!
But I'm new in this world!
There are 4 types of dual sim, DSDA, DSDS, DSDV and DSDA.
ROG is DSDS and your galaxy is DSDA.
DSDA is only option for data connection on sim2 while calling on sim1.
