Hello guys,
I flashed exodus rom (cm -- MM) last week and I am having a set back. Ive searched around and tried a few things but I cannot find a solution.
On oxygen os, in the dialer app, you could call from SIM 1 and SIM 2 even if you have set a preferred SIM in the settings. That was really handy.
On Exodus, I am using the Google Phone app from opengapps (Aroma installer) and I cannot find this option (as expected). I know I could set the settings to "Ask every time" but this would not be handy when I am calling from my car via bluetooth. Making a call from the car dashboard would not be possible since I will not be able to select the sim while driving.
I have tried a few dialers which apparently have this option but I cannot seem to enable it or something. I have tried zero dialer (for example) but when dialing a number I can see only 1 call button which uses my preferred sim settings. Of course, if I set the settings to "ask every time", while making the call it opens the phone app which asks for which sim to use. I am starting to think that these apps are not aware that the phone is a dual sim phone.
Has anyone faced this issue and found a solution to this?
Thanks
Edit
Check post 3 for solution
I am facing the same issue. I am on CM.
Well I found a solution.
True Phone Dialer and contacts actually gives you the option to choose sims. After installing the app, go to settings and enable dual sim. Now after dialing a phone number, hold the call button and a menu will pop up which will allow you to choose sims!
Since you do not need to set the phone settings for the sims to "Ask every time", you can still make calls via bluetooth connected devices. These calls will go through the preferred sim set in the phone settings for sims.
Hope this helps someone.
Hmmm
You should be able to set this in the sim options to ask every time.
Google phone doesn't have dual sim support, use default app..
Can't remember if default Exodus app has this option I guess it does

I have a stock Tmobile HTC G2 on Android 2.3.4. When I attempt to make a call while connected to a wifi network, I receive this message "No Internet Calling Account". This only happens when my phone is on wifi and it doesn't matter if I have wifi calling enabled or not, I still get this message. I have to disable wifi to actually make a call on this phone now.
For reference, I have two HTC G2's. This particular one doesn't have a data plan, so it stays on wifi. Both phones are stock and running 2.3.4 Android.
I remember the first time I tried to make a call after the upgrade to 2.3.4, it popped up with what program to use for the call. I hit what I thought was the green normal phone one, but then I get a warning message that says "No Internet Calling Account" There are no Internet calling accounts on this phone. Add one now? My choice is Add or cancel. If I choose to add it brings me to a screen to add SIP accounts.
I guess I need to figure out a way to keep this SIP (Internet Calling) from being the "default" setting when dialing out while on Wifi? For reference, my other G2 dials out just fine when wifi is connected and uses Tmobile's network like it should, or I can use the WifI calling. It behaves as it should. On this other phone, neither of those options work on this phone. I have to be off wife to actually dial out. I can receive calls just fine though, even with wifi connected.
No help on this one? Someone has to know what is going on?
Yes...it is pretty simple. I'm at work right now so I can't give you the exact details, but go into Menu > Settings > Phone (I believe it's in the phone tab), scroll to the bottom and there is a segment on Internet Calling. Just uncheck Internet Calling as default for all calls; select it to be used just for Internet Calls. That should solve the problem.
So you have a call plan but not data plan correct?

I had forgot to say I checked yes and yes it was set to ask, but I changed it to only for Internet calls, but still no go. The only other option in there is the "For All Calls".

Correct, I have a normal Calling plan and texting, just no data on this phone. My work provides me with this number, but I'm not good enough to get data.
Anyway, I've been using this phone like that since Dec, and its never been an issue until the upgrade to Gingerbread.
Have you installed an app called voice changer? If so uninstall it and see if that works, it was causing that same issue on my sons phone. You can also try going to settings - apps - manage apps, choose the app named dialer and click clear defaults.
Now we might be getting somewhere. I do have voice changer downloaded. Don't think I've ever used it. Il drop it off and see what happens. Thanks a bunch

JC, you nailed it. First I went through and reset the default on the dialer which was one of the things I was trying to do, I just couldn't figure out how to do it.
So the next time I attempted to make a call (while connected to wifi) it came up with 2 options to dial out. One was the voice dailer app, and the other was Dialer, but it had (SIP) behind it. That Dialer was the one I hit the first time around and set it to default thinking there is no way I want the default to be the voice changer, but for some reason it only gives you that SIP option. I'm guessing the voice changer is hogging the standard dial out option.
Since it still appeared that I couldn't call out with just the normal dialer, I went ahead and uninstalled that Voice Changer app and that was it. Its back to the way I'm expecting it!
I'm glad you ran into that with your son's phone as you figured out exactly what the issue was. I don't think I have that app on my other phone and that explains why it wasn't experiencing the same thing.
Same issue, but with HTC Desire 600. I did a factory reset, then restored from Google backup. Now I get that message on every phone number.
I can't find those settings or anything, it's Sense 5 and everything is different here. I have no SIP apps or anything installed on phone. please help
Hope you all would have used "Automatic SIM Selection" or "Remember SIM for a number" features in dual SIM Moto G (XT1033).
When "Automatic SIM Selection" is enabled, the phone will learn from pattern of use and automatically selects that as a preferred SIM when calling that contact.
"Remember SIM for a number" is available when you set “Ask every time I make a call” option in “Dual SIM settings->Call settings->Making calls”.
Once these are set, the dialer no longer asks for SIM for some contacts that have their preferences set. But you can always force a SIM for all calls by selecting a SIM as default in call settings.
The SIM preferences for a contact can be changed either by:
Tapping “Change SIM” during call. While this is the only option for unsaved numbers.
By opening contacts application and manually changing for each of the contacts by long holding the contact number
Though these are useful features, it can sometimes be frustrating if you dial a contact/number with wrong SIM (when rate cutter gets over in the SIM you have selected as default ).
You have to keep changing SIM for each and every contact/number for which you have given “remember SIM” or a SIM set automatically by the phone.
I was very much annoyed when I accidentally gave “Remember SIM” for an USSD code (the pop up dialogue to select SIM no longer appears). The code wasn’t saved on the phone or I didn’t get any calling screen (to tap change SIM) to change the SIM while dialing. The only option I had was to change the SIM in SIM settings whenever I wanted to dial that USSD code.
I tried clearing data of dialer/phone apps in settings, but of no use.. then I saw an built-in app called “Automatic SIM selection” (in Android 4.4.4, in older android versions - 'Smart Sim') under “ALL” category in settings->apps. Clearing data of this app deletes all the SIM preferences in one shot for all the contacts (even for unsaved numbers/USSD codes).
I googled a lot to find where these preferences are stored and how to clear them, but I wasn’t able to find. So I wanted to share this with you all.
Please click thanks if you find it helpful or share your ideas how you manage your dual SIM settings. Always happy to learn and help!

I found a way to remove remember sim on USSD code on my Moto G
Just add a new contact with number is the USSD code you are using (include special characters e.g. *, #). Then go to the new added contact, tap and hold the number then choose 'Clear default calling SIM'.

I believe this information is relatable to the successors of the Moto G too since the feature has been integral to the entire device line. I have a Moto G Turbo Edition from last year currently running Android 6.0.1 stock OS. The issue is that even after clearing the data of the Automatic Sim Selection app, it doesn't make a difference. Neither does it remember "smartly" which SIM to use nor does it allow me to force a particular SIM as the preferred SIM for calling. Which means no matter what I do, I always get a prompt to choose between the two SIMS and that's very annoying. What do I do?
is this applicable only to the stock ROM. cant find either 'Automatic SIM selection' or 'Smart Sim' in CM
Automatic SIM selection is not part of most custom ROMs i've tried. but wierdly enough, i can't select SIM for all landline calls i make. i just thought this might fix that.
ok, this may be irrelevant but I need "always ask" feature both for call and sending sms. but for sending sms this feature does not working on every custom MM 6.0 rom. only ID6 and CM13 has this function working. anyone here, knows any cause behind that?
Is it possibile to extract the apk from the stock rom and try to install into a custom rom ?

it is possible, provided that the system app/apk you are referring to does not depend on external components/libraries which are part of the stock ROM and not part of any custom ROMs.
Hi,
is there an option to force set the default SIM for texting/SMS ?
I'm using stock ROM - 5.0 (Russian) and stock messaging app.
When I'm using Google Now and saying to send text sometimes it tries to send it through SIM2 instead of SIM1.
In the SIM Manager I've got everything set to SIM1 but that seems to not be enough.
Any ideas welcome.
Cheers
This is a known issue, check the message centre no. set it correctly, sometimes it on its own sets the same for both the sims.

Thanks for the answer,
I've checked the message center and numbers are correct - SIM1 and SIM2 have their own numbers (which are OK)
this issue is really annoying .. it works OK for few times (sends text from SIM1) and one of a sudden tries sending text from SIM2... (which btw fails - luckily because that's the SIM from different country and it'd charge me more )
anyone know if there is any way to assign a contact to use a particular Sim with out switching using the Sim manager, when yo dial a number you get the option to select the Sim to use but the contact seem to only use the selected Sim ATM i hang up and you can the redial and select the Sim ( i have my home Sim and works Sim in the phone )
I have tried Samsung but the are unhelpful as i am using the phone in the UK and its not supported in this region,
If anyone in a region where the dual Sim version is supported has 5 mins to chat to samsung via there web chat can ask the question if there is any way to set a contact to dial using sim1 and another contact to use sim2 the ask them to request the feature be added via there dev team it may get added or i may just have to go back to LG as they have better call control..
thanks in advance

Hi,
I also have a G935FD and indeed, you're right I haven't found anything to be able to choose from which sim card you want to call when calling via contacts. It works only when you dial from the touchpad...
Complaining at Samsung might help to implement that process in the upcoming updates.

This is exactly what I found bit annoying, you couldn't set preference per number as which SIM to use out of the box (by not using any app.. just plain OS based solution), I couldn't find any. Tried asking on this & other forums. http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/sgs7-changes-marshmallow-t3353208
On the play store, found couple of paid apps that were doing the job, but one of them was not working on v6.0.1 (app creator was still in process of upgrading app to work on MM v6.0.1), another app gives you 7 days of free usage but costed £5 after that. I also tried to create a solution using Tasker, but it required a plugin which was first app that I mentioned was still under upgrade.
Frustrated with these problems, I decided to take control myself & now I'm in the process of developing an app that will exactly address the number-SIM preference. I found that Android has exposed a multi SIM API in version 5.1, but it's so poorly documented that I got really really angry about lack of information. Somehow I managed to build a workable copy of app. In this app you can specify rules based on Regular Expression number matching as which SIM to use if the dialed number matches regular expression specified. There is also an auto learning feature, where it will remember SIM for a number to dial.
As I said, I'm still in the process of developing this app, it's not professionally perfect but definitely does the job for now.. (It takes lot of time as I'm not an app developer & devoting time is a problem ), there are many features I want to implement in this app, but let's see when I find time. It's working perfectly on my S7E dual sim (I can't guarantee that it will work on any other device - although it should as app is built using androind 5.1 API -- I haven't tested on any other device).
If you need a copy of APK, do PM me & I'll send you one.. I've also posted same message here.
i will be interested to see the final version, ask always is working as a temporary fix.
preferred sim not working
for me if i click on a contact to call someone then it asks call from sim1 or sim 2 but i already chooses sim2 as preference. if i use swipe it is going from sim 2.

Are there any apps available or options that will enable me to assign numbers to a specific sim card as the default?
I've installed my work phone sim into my OP6T and find it a bear to use voice call because it always asks for sim card to dial call with. I can go one by one and assign defaults but... there's gotta be an easier way.
I've found that long pressing allows you to assign in the original OnePlus dialer, not the ported Google dialer I was running. Now my issue is supporting voicemail/visual voicemail for both a metro and Verizon sim card installed.
Using the stock contacts app on my 6t. After I set up a contact, I can click on the 3 dots (by the edit pencil) and set a default sim for that contact.
