Dual SIM Management - OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers

hello,
i'm using the app "dual sim selector pro" since my OP3T on android marshmallow for a sufficient dual sim management. unfortunately, on my OP5 it is not working as it should....
in phone/settings/sim&network i set all options to SIM2 as default sim. when i make a call in the phone app the dual sim selector's dual sim selection pops up (everything is fine up to here). but after choosing a sim in the popup, the call in progress screen gets minimized to the statusbar area. i always have to click on "touch to return" to get the in call screen back.
any solution for this problem?

Have you tried not using the app? I use the standard software installed without problems. Or a silly question - if the SIM in the SIM2 slot is your default then why don't you swap the SIMs around (unless it is band related)?

yes, the standard software does not have the functionalty i want.
it does not change anything to swap the sim cards...same behavior.

[Q] Dual Sim Settings- can't find option to disable one sim

I have bought Spice android one device and it works fine.. The only problem i am facing is that i can't find an option to disable sim one or sim two anywhere.. There are settings to select default sim card but no option to disable one and keep one active.. At first i thought that this is some problem with kitkat but in my friend's moto g there is the dual sim setting option.. so how can i disable one sim card in my phone???? there has to be a way....
i got the exact same issue, downloaded an app MTK Control, but that too doesn't work.

G900FD - SIM Soft Switcher

I'm running the G900FD Duos and need to continually switch between SIM1 and SIM2. I have to do this because the 2G signal in my area is non existent so when using SIM1 on 3G/4G the other SIM (which then uses 2G) won't receive any calls or texts.
I've tried in the unnecessarily confusing Samsung dual-sim settings to make this a one click operation but simply cannot fathom it out without endless clicking to and fro. I've also tried xShortcut to add a shortcut to the home screen to either switch between the two SIMs or swap 3G/4G connection from one SIM to another (and back) but again without success.
Does anyone know if this is even possible without a 15 click operation?

SIM Manager Video call option

Hello all
Today I just upgraded to S7 Edge Dual SIM from my S5 DUOS.
I use two sims and switch between them for data to utilise my 3G on both service providers. All that was needed on S5 duos was to go to SIM manager and click Data option and it would ask to also change to auto 2G/3G/LTE mode on the selected SIM.
This is still possible on S7.
But I also could set preferred SIM for video call on S5. or set it to ask each time just as the options for voice call.
On S7 the options for setting Preferred SIM for Video call is gone and replaced by options for setting Preferred SIM for Text messages.
Does anyone have any clue if there is a way to bring back this option.
Does different regions have different options like if it is CSC dependent.
Setting it to Always ask was a good option as on Pressing video call button it would ask and one could choose the SIM currently on 3G .
With S7 all video call are always through SIM 1 and if one has selected Data on SIM 2 then there is an error saying you are out of 3G area!!!
Any suggestion would be welcome. and is there a way we could bring this logical thing to the notice of SAMSUNG.
Thanks.

S7 Edge dual SIM control

Hi Guys !
I have a Samsung S7 edge duos, for which i want to use two SIM cards - SIM 1 is my home SIM, and SIM 2 is a Global roaming SIM with data and Voice.
My question is whether its possible to set my phone in such a way that when I go on roaming i want my SIM 1 to deactivate data services and SIM 2 data services to kick in, since this a global SIM.
Is there an App for that or is there some kind of settings for the same.
Help in this regard would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
John
Not sure if you can do this, maybe with a task scheduler? Best choice is just to manually set your SIM2 to be the main SIM.
The only thing that might work is to call transfer sim 1 to sim two so that any calls received will ring on sim 2 which you can select as the active.
You can not cross connect the apns since they are linked to different sim cards.
Did you try all the dual sim manager apps? they say they do just that!!!

"switch off" only one SIM seems not possible

Hey there
I have the following situation and basically this is the reason why I've bought a dual SIM
SIM 1 - Vodafone Italy
SIM 2 - Yallo Switzerland
SIM 1 is used ONLY for receiving phone calls and I want to have it 24/7
SIM 2 is more a working SIM, I am using it for phone and internet
Evening I want to switch off SIM 2, don't want to be bothered with calls nor I care for internet.
First problem when I try to "disable" SIM 2 I got the message that the SIM is set as primary (whatever it means) so I cannot disable it (why ????????????)
Trying to findo out what is the reason I have discovered that if I select data on SIM 1, then I can switch off SIM 2 (whaaaaat ?????)
Seems that I am not free to do it
The other thing is ... to "disable" the SIM, I have to go to Settings | SIM and mobile network click on SIM 2 and disable
This is not what you want to do just before going to sleep, I expected something very easy to switch off SIM 1 or 2 based on needs
How can I solve the problem ?
Cheers
Steve
