I have a new job, and with that comes a new phone (KPN), but: no data traffic! (company policy)
I do own a private number (Tmob) which I can update to a data-plan. And to make use of them, I could use a sim-switch, but then I have to switch each time I want to use internet or make a call. But I don't wanna switch! I want 1 sim for voice and 1 for data at the same time, is this impossible??!
probably
But then: as an alternative I could ask KPN for an data only contract as an addon to the contract of my work sim which will be billed by myself. Does anyone have some experience with this? (calling KPN is not possible during the weekend, and I'm very curios)
thanks!
dual sim
Hello,
I tried a dual sim solution in my trinity, but without success. I bought the latest generation because the older ones can't deal with digital sim's capable of umts. This was a 16th generation dual sim. It worked fine in a verry old nokia but not in my trinity. Tried it in WM5 and WM6 but keeps reporting a sim error.
Hi,
I have 2 questions before I get the beast
- is 4G/LTE possible to get on both sim or it's sim one 4G and the other sim 2G only?#
- will the phone working with UK's, Poland's providers?
- is call recording possible please? Can someone test ACR by NLL from Google Play, or Call Recorder by Clever Mobile
- where is the best place to buy it outside invitation sysytem
Thank you!
Hi!
The sime support dual 4G so it should support on both sims however please note that if you import from China because it has only one IMEI number only 1 sim wil work
Try call recorder by skvalex.
Hi guys,
For anyone with a dual SIM model of the LG V20, can you please do myself and others a big favour?
I need to determine the phones capabilities and functionality when it comes to dual sim capability. We know this is only dual standby, but I need to determine a few things. Can someone please answer these questions ONLY if you have this phone and ONLY if you've tested it?
1) Can a 3G phone (voice) call be received on a SIM whilst the other SIM's 4G data is in use (Y/N)?
2) If yes, does the 4G data SWITCH OVER to the other SIM to allow that voice call to come through, or:
3) Does the 4G data temporarily cut out on the "data active" SIM for the other SIM to allow inbound 3G voice call?
4) Can you deactivate test to confirm with 100% accutracy only 4g and/or 3G is being used on both SIMs?
Any help from current users (or if anyone can post a video oft he settings/functionality), that would be awesome!
Thank you

Hi. Cant exactly verify this because in the Phillippines H990DS. We dont have voice call over 3G.
But if it helps, i have a viber account on SIM2s number. I use SIM1 as Data provider.
When i get a viber call on SIM2s number, it doesnt switch but instead uses SIM1s data.
But not entirely sure if that works the same as Voice over 3G
When one sim is in use the other is disabled, I think the only phone that does this is huawei mate 7, but that's 4G+2G or 3G+2G.

Not entirely. Yes, they are dual standy by...but when 4G is active on SIM and call comes in on SIM 2, it should eityhert SWITCH the data to SIM 2 to allow call to come through, or temporarily disable 4G on SIM 1 for the call to get through. See other models that dpo this:

This phone has the new chipset that can allow this. Have you actually tried this, or have any images to confirm your findings?

You have the HK model, right? Makes no sense why two dozen or more other models out there with this chipset can allow 4g/3g (evenif 1 is temporarily disabled) and this new flagship doesnt.
i got the H990DS today. I have Tmo and AT&T. it has 3G standby. No matter which SIM i select in 4G the other always holds 3G.

Perfect. Thanks for confirming. Sorry to be a pain in the butt but could you screenshot that on the phone and post to confirm {if signal at top left status bar shows this}?
Sent from my LG-H818 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Sure thing. :good:

here is my findings for a few days, i bought a data sim card (only internet) and added to my LG V20 as SIM2
1) yes, you can receive calls while the data is working on the second sim
2,3) in my case, when i receive a call from SIM1 (4G), the data SIM2 still connects between 4G and 3.5G, but in both cases the data is been cutted off and unable to do anything
(this was tested via hotspot the SIM2 and getting a call on SIM1, happened multiple occasions)
4) until now, SIM1 and SIM2 in my device works both on 4G (battery drainage is surprisingly holding up)(tested via switching between SIM1 and SIM2 Data connection)
one note to be considered, the data speed was very low, i called my provider and adviced me to switch to another device (portable router adviced), i switched the sim to another device (Note 3) and the net speed was signifacantly better for a while

Your answer is helpful, Silver Mask! Just to confirm, if I'm on a call on SIM2, I would not be able to use the internet on SIM1 at the same time? (e.g. if I wanted to use Google Maps with SIM1 sata while I have a SIM2 call on speaker). If I understand correctly, you're saying I can receive a call on SIM2 while I'm using SIM1 data but once I pick up the call, the data from SIM1 will be temporarily disabled?

Either disabled as an extream case, 50% of the time it switch to lower band (from 4G/LTE to 3G), even then the data feels slow, but usually any navigation app and social messaging apps doesn't get affected that much, it is just annoying
I'm using the s3 duos variant here, back on stock due to the tools problem.
Anyone know how to identify which SIM an incoming call is from before I answer it? (I have to pay to receive calls on one of my sims -- international roaming).

There are apps for this case.
I use dual SIM selector. I think there are settings for this case.
Maybe you should give it a try.

There could be 3 possible ways.
1) Software bug
2) sim slot pin breakage
3) sim card chip problem
Identify the root cause at first.

2nd and 3rd not possible. Since data and messages are working.
Can you provide more information.
Are you on 4g network.
What type of error do you get.
Your circle.
Have you changed your network settings using *#*#4636#*#*?
Have you tried calling using 3g and 2g only?
If not choose WCDMA only (use above code). Also try with GSM only.
!dea user here since a long time(familiar with all their problems and solutions)
Please answer above all questions in as much details as you can.
Please keep in mind that it can be an software bug

Same problem here. Solution for now is to change to 2G network, at least for me. When I try to call with 4G preferred sometimes it work, but when it works they can't hear me and I have to scream. This Pie update have so many bugs it is ridiculous. I can't believe they put such ****ty update to the masses it seems like BETA version. In Oreo when making call phone switches from 4G to 3G instantly now in Pie switches worry slow if it even switch and the signal is so bad that the call drops and that is in places where the signal is perfect
