Hey there devs! I was wondering if at all possible, would you be able to run an SM-G530H Rom on an unlocked T-mobile phone. Because this is currently the case for me. If at all possible, maybe tweaks to fix the incompatibilities. As I recall, the 531H is Dual Sim while 530H is Single Sim.
530H is dual sim

All experts,
I would like to 'enable' on my S7 edge the dual SIM function. The 'international' card holder could care 2 Nano SIM card, but the G935F is supporting just one SIM.
It's possible to do this without root? It's possible to install the G935FD firmware or are there radio baseband modifications nesessary?
In addition, I need to run the Blackberry Works app (former Good). This app is not running on a rooted phone.
Thanks for any comment and help.

You can't.
Single sim variant have only 1 imei number but dual sim variant have 2 which are for each sim. You can't just add more imei to your phone and even if you can, it is illegal.
Also card holder of single sim variant cannot hold 2 sim cards, only 1 sim card+microsd.
G935fd and G935f firmwares also are identical. So you can flash it on your phone but it's not going to enable dual sim on single sim variant.

While don't you save yourself the strength and buy the dual sim version, because like the other guy above said, its impossible to use dual sim on a single sim. Backup your data, get the dual sim version and restore back.
Thanks for the first feedback.
- single SIM and dual SIM card holders are available at eBay etc. The HW of the two phone is 100% identical. A friend of mine converted his G935f to G935fd with the support of a Vietnamese service guy over TeamViewer. My problem is the root after this.
BTW: Buying a DUOS is not a problem, it cost just some money
Thanks for expert tips...

It IS possible to convert G930/5F to G930/5FD. Only you have to do is clone your IMEI as IMEI 2 using Z3x or other software and replace SIM + microSD tray to SIM + SIM/microSD or DIY
That's in theory, but I personally need assist in:
1. Downgrading to Nougat, because Z3x doesn't support (yet) the newest /efs to modify cert to add that IMEI 2 or at least I can't find new enough which supports Oreo
1.1 Need to factory reset!
2. Getting root
3. Adding IMEI 2
3.1. Need to factory reset!
4. Updating back to official Oreo without root, if possible. I'm perfectly fine with normal functions, don't need the root for anything. Only I need is second SIM. I believe that I need to flash official Nougat first over rooted Nougat and update it using FOTA to Oreo? If not, flashing Oreo by Odin.
I will very appreciate any help with confirming these steps (is it correct way?) and helping me to get needed files and stuff to do it.
All experts,
I have replace the motherboard of my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, dual sim variant (SM-G935FD) with that of single sim variant but a frequent prompt of sim card mode shift is happened, saying "the sim card mode is witched from dual sim to single sim mode, which requires a rest to factory setting and restart". Since there is only a restart option, I'm forced to hit it and restart frequently but not working yet. How can I fix this problem?
Thanks for any comment and help!

I also used z3x and it works flawlessly im on Oreo s7 edge exynos.

Dear All,
can LG G6 convert to dual sim like s7/s7 edge? I cannot find the answer.
can we upgrade firmware or do something?
AFAIK that's down to the hardware, sorry. You would need another sim slot, requiring a specific dual sim model.
What do you mean by converting to Dual SIM?
As per specs review (https://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g6-8466.php), the G6 has both a Single SIM and Hybrid-Dual SIM. This means that your phone either supports two Sim or it doesn't.
If you don't know if your phone support two sims, dial *#06# and if it shows one IMEI, the phone is Single SIM. If it sows 2 IMEIs it's a dual SIM

Hardware, pretty sure can't be done
Why Sumsung S7/S7 edge can convert, and G6 cannot
do u have any idea?
Any idea for what? It can't be done because of different hardware.
H870x = single SIM, H870DS = dual SIM.

Idea for Flash firmware or change hardware
Of course you can buy a new h870ds logic board if you find any.
Firmware change only doesn't work.

Not sure if this has been asked before, but I didn't find anything. I just purchased the XT1681 dual SIM version of this phone. First question, is it compatible with all the potter roms? Second question, will I lose the dual SIM function?
Thanks in advance for your help.

The builds for EU/US will work well for dual SIM devices. Only India has a different build (the latest one ends on 92 for India and 93 for EU/US). I have the european version with dual SIM (so I can't speak for the indian firmware) and flashed POTTER_NPNS25.137-33-11_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip without any problems. Also later builds should work.

I have the same model of you and i have flashed successful all of the roms here, now im on resurrection remix 6.0.
All roms have Dual Sim function so don't worry about it!
Remember if you flash custom Oreo roms don't get back to stock or you will lose VoLTE.
Take full twrp backup(oem, efs etc.) and keep it safe.
If you have any question you can send private message im from mexico too.

I believe J730F is actually a dual sim model. Moreover the fact that two slots are already present on your phone confirms its dual sim capability.
Dial*#1234#. Now check your model no . I think your handset has dual sim support.
I was wondering if VoLTE works on the international version of the McLaren edition in the US. I need the dual SIM model and as far as I'm aware (I asked an associate, actually), the T-Mobile version does not have a second SIM slot.

Theoretically, if it's anything like the 6t all you need is a oem dual SIM tray off eBay

There's a bit of process getting that to work, assuming there really is a hidden second SIM slot. Considering how new the phone is, I'd rather not risk bricking the phone trying to change the ROM to get the option of a second SIM slot to appear.
Thanks for the reply, though.
You can use a 2nd sim tray once you root & flash international firmware but the IMEI will be the same on both.

When I unlocked & rooted the 7 pro TMO version both IMEIs were the same. I'm assuming the same with 7t McLaren. But I'll know soon enough, I've requested unlock.
