Hi,
I have a Moto X pure 16GB (xt1575) bought from USA. I used it on multiple carriers in USA and it worked fine.
I am on a visit to India, where I intend to use the phone for couple of months.
I tried with these networks:
CDMA sim (Operator Tata Docomo) - Network gets detected and sim is operational
GSM sim (Operator Airtel) - Sim is detected but doesnt get registered onto network
GSM sim (Operator Reliance Jio) - Sim is detected but doesnt get registered onto network, seems some problem with Jio network, they have additional things for VOLTE to work.
So, I am pretty sure, the handset is fine, changed the network settings thru the secret menu phone info, to LTE, GSM to what not. nothing works for Airtel Sim.
The bands do work in India and are compatible.
Any idea's what more can I do?

Can try it if nothing works.
I am noob, a procedure would be helpful or a link to it.

It does show the Apn, but the gsm service shows as unknown and network type as unknown.
Any users from India have any suggestions.
AIrtel and Jio work fine on the Moto X since many users here have and are using it with them, except the VoLTE part of Jio you have to use the Jio4voice app to make/receive calls.
Have you tried going into the Phone app, dialed *#*#4636#*#* and gone to Phone Info and changed "Set preferred network type" to something different?
Also, I think the Jio SIMs require a very specific registration process, going through several apps to get them working... check with a local shop.
Here's some snapshot from the menu screen and network finder applicaton.
I know the ans to this soln
i am a jio user and basically the problem is that mxp supports volte but the frequency is the main issue.. due to unmatchable frequency the volte ain't activated for jio
u can try t&t and Verizon sims volte is working on them but jio frequency is not up to that mark as mxp but an official nougat update might help the frequency to maintain and volte might get activated.....
so we need to wait for official nougat update only... trying romcwont work..
screenshots are here

Thanks for the response, I will wait for the Nougat update.
Does the same apply for Airtel also ? It shown network type as unknown.

After making some changes in service menu, i am unable to use dual sim functionality. I can use only one sim slot at a time. The other one shows no network available. Regardless of which sim slot i use. In service menu sim slot 1 can be set to any preferred network but sim slot 2 is stuck in gsm only mode. Manually searched for network but no network available. Flashed latest oos 3.1.0,still the same issue. Can anyone help me with this.
Thanks in advance
Just restore whatever change you did in service menu and you should be back, you should not have played around in there from the beginning ?

Service menu doesn't have an option to reset to default and i don't remember exactly what changes i made. Yea i shouldn't have touched the service menu. If there's any thing else that can be done. Thanks for the quick reply
I think you changed radios to be only 3g/4g and your carriers uses the same band

I'm not sure what changes I've made but yes both providers use band 40 2300 mhz for lte. I've tried changing one of the sim to use only 2g so that both sims are on different band but still same issue.
If you are in an area where carrier uses exclusively LTE that's the problem, opt radio is dual standby it alternate between two signals in any of the combinations 2g-3g/lte but not 3g-3g or lte-lte

My phone was working fine few days ago. I messed up something in service menu, after that the problem started. I have set one of the sim to use 2g manually, still i can't find any signal and both carriers use 3 different bands.
Have you found any solution i am facing exact same issue after changing network band. please help

No wifi, no simcards detected...
Can you explain how it makes it work?
Here is a good read about such dual-sim issues (esp. posts #3,4):
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/dua-sim-detection-problem-only-one-sim-being-detected.430976/
I'm a noob with this stuff, I read that forum and I'm still unclear... Is there a work around or am I screwed? Is it the phone/Software or my sim cards?
Here is the solution
In order to solve the problem go to service menu by dialing *#*#4636#*#* then turn off radio then select radio band 32 when it says successful, restart your phone and the problem will be solved
Say thanks at fb.com/suri131
You can contact for any other issue too
Finally solved the issue
I too faced similar issue and solved it now. I'll share my observations here.
I had 2 4g Sims Airtel and Jio. Jio for data. Both the sim's were working fine , once i went into roaming suddenly after that airtel stopped latching to network. Whatever sim slot i put my airtel sim it's not getting network if in the other slot Jio is there. I tried to use my airtel sim in other phones and it's working fine. I tried putting only airtel sim it's working fine in my OP2. I thought this may be imei problem and checked imei , my OP2 has both imei in it.
So now the fix part , for me 4g sim was working fine so tried fixing the other one in sim slot 1 i.e.. airtel.
*Install and open Shortcut Master(Lite).
*Menu->Search->Type "Engineering" -> Select "EngineerMode" from Search result (package name:com.android.engineeringmode.EngineeringMode) ->Launch.
*Click Network Set
*Click Sim Card Select -> sim 1
*Click Rat mode ->Select GSM only
*Click band mode->Select PGSM 900/1800
Now turn on Airplane mode on /off wait for a minute you should see both network.
Summary: In OP2 one slot will be 4g / other will be GSM 2g... So whichever sim is working for you don't change settings for that sim , play with the other sim for which no network is coming.

Hey man. Installed a custom based on android 12 and i'm not sure what happened but only one sim card was working. Used msm tool to go back to oos 12 and now only one sim card shows.
Was going to try your method but the "engineeringmode" does not show up in search.
Any suggestions?
I have an OP2 OOS Version 3.5.6. My two sim slots are also filled up with two sims. So the Problem here is Only one of the Sim works at a time. Suppose if i keep the PREFERED SIM FOR MOBILE DATA as SIM 1 , the network of SIM 2 goes off and only SIM 1 is active.Vice versa . Please help me and as far as i remember i did not configure any unneccesary things. I am just noobin these stuff.TIA

You can't use two 4G SIMs at the same time.
The SIM not set as the primary (data) SIM can only connect to a 2G network.
It's always been like this on the OP2

I mean't to say that Vodafone is 4G enabled Sim. It is not mandatory that it should work only on 4G.
Whereas JIO is a Network Where 4G is Mandatory. BTW it was working fine for the past three months without any issue.
And I even tried Having Airtel as the 1st Sim and Vodafone as the 2nd sim (Vice Versa) it doesn't work..
I thought if i Factory Reset the phone the problem would be gone, but it didn't ! Probably i have to go to a Service Centre

If your JIO SIM is the primary SIM and Vodafone have a 2G network in your location, the second SIM should be able to connect too.
If it doesn't, something isn't right.

Hi Everybody,
I am stuck with my OP2 OOS 3.5.6.
So after i got the 3.5.6 i was not able to get VOLTE. So i found a resolution on the OP2 forum:
They advised to downgrade to 3.1.0 and then to upgrade to 3.5.6, did that and was able to get VOLTE, but another issue started, as in India Jio is a 4g service and I read somewhere that we will have to use it in SLOT 1 , so i did the same, and Vodafone in SLOT 2.
When i did that Jio works fine but there is no network for Vodafone.
After that i have tried the following:
*Selecting network manually.
*Changing the band.
*Reinstalling the OS.
*Resetting the network settings.
*Wiping out data and cache.
Nothing worked for me, can somebody suggest me something.

If you remove the Jio SIM and leave the Vodafone SIM in slot 2 does it connect to the network?
Does the Vodafone network support 2g?

You only answered one question!
Does the Vodafone network support 2g?
Does the Vodafone sim work in slot 1?
Does your SIM 2 have an IMEI in settings > about phone > status IMEI info?

Yes Vodafone does support 2g but when I select 2g and the Sim in the slot 2 it does not work.
Yes the Vodafone does work fine with 3g and 2g network in slot 1.
Yes the Sim 2 does show the imei number under settings.
You can select vodafone in slot 1 with 2g then put jio in slot 2 and select 4g as the 1+2 has dual LTE standby so jio should work fine on slot 2

Does really op2 has dual stand by, as I am not able to get volte and I have the Jio in slot 2.
Also I contacted op2 customer care and they mentioned that it will only support one 4g and other will be only 3g.
Does it work for you if yes can you please let me know what are the settings you have.

Dual sim standby works fine for me but I'm not a Jio user.
OnePlus support are wrong, If your data sim is 4g, the other drops to 2g not 3g.
Not sure what your issue is though as I've only heard of it affecting some (but not all) Jio users.

You both are right they did mention 2g,my mistake that I mentioned 4g.
Yes I got a few users who mentioned the same of not getting network in the second slot. I did got a hint from somebody that it might be an issue with the update and a fix is in the pipeline. But again its just a hint and not sure.
Thanks a lot for all the help.
I have two sims A and B connected to networks .sim A is selected for cellular data but when i change it to sim b , the network on sim b stops coming and until i change the cellular data to sim A and restart the phone Sim B wont connect to a network, error while searching for network is displayed while trying to search for network manually. Does anyone know is it a sim problem or with the mobile. I have even factory resetted the phone and changed the sim slots.
Is one of the SIMs Jio 4G? For it to work, you'll need to set it as the primary data SIM. As soon as you change the data SIM, it will deactivate itself from the network.
So, likely my G4 plus did the same while activating data on another network, JIO4G automatically turns off!

tried that did not work , one sim is airtel 4g and other is vodafone
That's a model and/or mobile operator dependent problem. I have XT1642 in Germany and never had that problem with both sim slots.
What model did you have and in which country?
it's only due to jio sim in india
I am currently in India, and trying to use my Essential PH1 with a Vodafone India 4G sim card. The SIM is not registering with the phone, and I am unable to get any network. I keep getting the message "your SIM is not allowed to use this network". I have tried contacting the local service center, but they tell me that the handset settings need to be changed. The same SIM works well with other phones in India.
I am using a Vodafone India 4G sim.. its a 'postpaid' connection (if that matters). When I manually select the network, all the available networks are listed, when I select "choose automatically", a message pops up "already registered on the network", but i dont get any signal.
When I manually try to select Vodafone IN from the list, pop up message says "your SIM is not allowed to use this network"
I have checked with Vodafone customer care, and they are sure its a phone config issue.
The same SIM works perfectly fine in any other handset. (Currently running the same SIM in Nexus 5)
Since this phone has not been launched in India yet, there is no technical knowledge or troubleshooting database available locally. Would you be able to help me with the correct settings so that the I can continue using the phone in India?
HI
I am having the same Issue with my phone, just bought it from US. indian SIMS not registering, were you able to find a solution for this?
Thanks
No.. not yet. The Essential customer care was supposed to get back, but they are not responding since the last couple of days. Do keep in touch if you are able to find a solution...

Hi
Received an OTA today for the device, Airtel and Vodafone are now registering ,. Jio is not able to register.
Cheers
I'm having a similar problem in Japan with Softbank, which ironically bought Sprint - the sole carrier of the phone in the USA.
There is no signal at all, and when selecting Softbank manually from the list of carriers, an error message stating it can't authenticate on the network popped up.
I faced the same issue a week ago, with both Airtel and Jio not registering the device on their networks. Yesterday, I booted up the phone again, installed the OTA, and was on my way to the Airtel store to talk about it. When I put in my SIM and turned it on, it got a signal and LTE data. I didn't try the same with Jio.
The most likely reason for the phone not being detected initially is that Essential has just one SKU, as far as I know, with all IMEIs of the 99x series. That's the typical IMEI series for Verizon and Sprint in the US, which are CDMA networks. Most other GSM IMEIs are of the 35x series.
I had planned to contact Essential support about this, but I didn't get down to it. I'm not sure what exactly made it work the second time. Maybe the OTA update changed something, or maybe Airtel took a while to auto-register (whitelist) the IMEI of this phone after it first detected it being used with a legitimate Airtel SIM. Regardless, it works just fine now.
NOTE: After I was able to get a signal, I could see the LTE symbol with no internet connectivity. I changed the preferred network type to "Global" in Settings and then it worked just fine. The default setting of LTE/TDSCDMA/CDMA/EVDO/GSM/WCDMA didn't allow data, only calls and SMS.
Yes am too facing same problem with essential PH1
used all operator Indian 4g / 3g sim card
even cdma also ...no result ...no network
Product Name -Mata
Variant Openus
Baseband 2.0.c4-M1.2
Secure boot Yes
Device State Locked
anyone some clue ???
regards,
When using outside of the U.S.A change network type to Global. Secondly insert the Sim (with the phone turned off). You should receive service when you turn the device on. In case you don't, give it a moment.
I had to replace my Sim as a last resort and then it worked without a problem.
Good luck.
