Duel sim phone

I have two (2) mobile phones and I want to consolidate on to one that has two sim sockets....Which Nokia phone should I buy?

I used two phones for years (most recently the 6230i & N70)
The N70 (previously 6260/6650) being for work, the 6230i for 'fun & friends'
One being Pay and Go, the other Contract...
This worked well for years, until I realised I was using one loads and the other very little, so I stopped using the busy phone and transferred them all over to the nice N70 lol...
Anyway, the transition was smoother than I could ever have expected... I did look into the option of the Dual Sim thing, but hated it - I wanted to be contactable by both groups of people all the time, so decided it was much more sensible and practical to just use the one number.
It was definitely the right decision for me, I've never regretted it.
I'm sure it would be a nightmare for any manufacturer to even consider a dual sim phone with both sims active - it could mean dual contact lists, messaging services, internet settings... what a nightmare! lol, and so much more of a battery drain.
Do you still feel you need this dual sim capability?

N95 8GB is a dual-sim phone?

can he manage 2 simcards same time?
Thank you!

There are phones out there claiming to be N95 8GB with duel SIM but DO NOT BUY.
These are fakes and are really poor.
The best way to get a quick response is to use the boards. Please do not be offended if I don't answer emails immediately.

Concern regarding quality of dual sim phones

Can we have nokia build phones similar to asha 300 or Nokia X3-02 with dual sim option and i am sure we can expect a lot more market for nokia in India.
We still have a big lot of consumers who prefer normal keypad kind of phones with dual sim option, just that the quality has to be to the mark, when i did a review on the types of dual sim phones, its really sad to see nokia producing low quality phones with dual sim options, i agree the target is to reach economy class but if we have atleast 1 new model with featuers and quality as that of nokia 300 or x3-02,,, much appreciated.

Verizon will only activate Verizon-branded phones on its network. Any Verizon phone will be compatible with the 3G CDMA network, but may also have radios for 4G LTE and/or various GSM bands (with a SIM card slot - Verizon calls these global phones) depending on the particular phone.
If you want a phone to use with Verizon and in another country, you'd need to buy one of Verizon's global models and have it unlocked to work with the SIM card from the other provider. You'd also want to carefully check that the phone's GSM radio supports the frequencies that the other company uses.

DUAL SIM PHONE OPTIONS

I need to get a dual sim phone so that i can have my own personal mobile sim in it and my work mobile sim in too
However, I need the option to be able to USE ONE SIM ONLY , so that I can 'turn off' my work mobile when I am not working.
I was looking at something like the Asha 202 or C2-00. However, having downloaded their user manuals, it would suggest you cannot do this (And only have the option of selecting which sim will be used for outgoing calls/texts).
Another dual sim phone , the Nokia 101 according to its user guide has the facility to USE ONE SIM ONLY. However, that is a very basic phone and has no camera.
So, my question is, is the USE ONE SIM ONLY available on the 202 & C2-00 and is just omitted from the user guide, or is it really not available ?
Thanks
Regards, Mikey-boy

@MIKEYBOY_UK
AFAIK it allows simultaneous Dual SIM Support with preferred SIM selection for Making Calls and Data. Asha 200 allows hot swap of SIM 2 via side slot whilst SIM 1 is placed underneath battery.

Dual-sim phone suggestions for my mom

I am looking for a non-touch Nokia phone for my mother. She requests a phone that supports dual-sim so she can use it for both personal and work calls. I have read around a bit, and there's this term called dual-sim standby, and as far as I understand, it seems it is about dual-sim phones having to change from one to another when you want to use it for other than calling, like for example browsing or writing messages. And to not give her this confussion, I rather suggest a phone that doesn't need to be controlled whether using sim A or B.
So I am here to ask if you guys could suggest a Nokia phone that supports dual-sim with no dual-sim standby? Thanks in regards!
PS: I found some phones that supported dual-sim, but it seemed like the phone needed to be a dual-sim model before having the feature. So is it true, that when you find a phone mode it does not necessarily have dual sim capabilities?

I still feel that phone such as X1-01 being able to keep work and personal calls separate and see on what side call is coming in would be very useful to her; an added benfit is good battery life on this model.
Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

When will Nokia deliver a dual 3G SIM Phone

As a regular traveller (Belgium/UK) I have to swap SIMs to enable local service providers. This is crazy unless I want the phone service provider to charge me. If Samsung can offer dual SIM 3G why not Nokia - my preference. Please dont make me go to Samsung! Just make the new Nokia N/E series all dual SIM that would be great- thanks

And it would also greatly increase the price for the vast majority of users that don't need dual sim capability.
Also have you seen how ugly and basic the other dual sim phones have been? You get the feature at the cost of function.
Have you considered buying a dual sim adapter for your phone? Or do you need both sims to be always active?

HT4839 PLEASE HELP!!! I am simply trying to update the APN settings on my Iphone3 AT&T carried Straight Talk SIM phone. For some reason, when I enter the Straight Talk APN info in the Config Utility and click "Install", NOTHING HAPPENS. WHY?

PLEASE HELP!!! I am simply trying to update the APN settings on my Iphone3 AT&T carried Straight Talk SIM phone. For some reason, when I enter the Straight Talk APN info in the Config Utility and click "Install", NOTHING HAPPENS. WHY? I have spent almost 2 full days simply trying to get the cellular data network settings to appear and I am now at the point of pulling hair and/or smashing things. Why is it so difficult to simply update the cellular data network APN settings on a standard Iphone 3 ATT with a unlimited Straight Talk plan? Everyone knows that Straight Talk's $45 a month unlimited data/calling plan is supposed to be 100% compatible with AT&T carried Iphones. Will someone please tell me HOW TO UPDATE THE APN SETTINGS ON THIS IPHONE 3. Thanks and God bless

StraightTalk is not a supported carrier.
Contact them for support.
FYI, unless the device is officially unlocked from AT&T, you will not be able to use it on another carrier.

How was created the cluster with keys in example: Sim Phone.vi

Hello all
I have LV 7.1.1
I have found the example: Sim Phone.vi
And I don't know how was created the cluster with keys?
Best regards
Iskander

It's just like any other cluster you create. Put a cluster container on the front panel and insert some Booleans. the actual Booleans are on the classic controls palette. The border of the cluster is also colored transparent with the paintbrush on the Tools palette.

I have a nokia dual sims phone, with a rogers card...

i live in ny, but when i went to canada it says no service, and in the states its saying no service....what am i doing wrong... i couldn't even put minutes on in in montreal, with a voucher. i was suppose to get free minutes with the card, but that never happened either....i go to networking and they can't find one..i have a canadian phone number and address on the phone, so i should have been able to use it in montreal.

Can I ask what model is the phone and where was it purchased?
My first guess is that it's a non-US model
The US & Canada is on 1900 & 850 GSM bands, whereas India (where most Nokia dual SIM phones are sold) is 900 & 1800.
Therefore it might be that the handset is not configurated for North America.

Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
hacked/modified/jailbroken and tis now relocked it to the
original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
Where did you acquire this iPhone?
What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?
Unauthorized modification of iOS

If your iPhone has not been jailbroken, see the troubleshooting suggestions here:http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3424?viewlocale=en_US

Sim phone book missing

Hope someone can help. I won the Blackberry Z10 phone (it's awesome!) and am learning to use it. I previously had the Tour 9630 (yeah...finally caught up) wanted to transfer my contacts. As per instruction to copy contacts from my SIM card to my old device's built in storage in my contact list on my old phone I should go to Contacts, then Menu > Sim Phone Book > Copy All To Contact. What's the problem? I don't see "Sim Phone Book" step when I hit the menu key! Where is it or if it is hidden, how do I retrieve it??? Help!!!

You should open your BlackBerry Address Book or Contacts.
Scoll down in the menu listing to SIM Phone Book. You should see it adjacent to "Filters".

SIM Phone Number - Uncaught exception (initalValue)

Hello Everyone,
I'm using a 8300 (v4.2.2.180) - Somehow, my phone number on the unit stored in Sim Phone Number, has grown to about 30 digits. It's completely wrong, so I'm trying to fix it. However, when I click on Sim Card, and attempt to click on 'Edit SIM Phone Number', I immediately get an error after I click: 'Uncaught Exception: invalid initalValue'
Does anyone know how I can fix this? I'm running this off a BES but I feel it's more of a device issue.
Thanks,
Daniel.

What does 'If that doesn't work you might want to application load the blackberry.' mean? And how abouts do I do that?
Thanks!

Dual Sim Phone

I currently have 2 sim cards - one on o2 uk pay as you go and one on vodafone uk pay monthly. Is there a phone that will let me use both sim cards at time (e.g. line 1, line 2 etc) or do I need to have a special sim card with the 2 networks on it? If I need just the one sim card, which operator do I go to?

A phone cannot connect to two networks at the same time, it's not possible. One of the networks will always be offline and you will have to switch between them.
No nokia models can accept two sim cards at the same, you have to use an adaptor. You can find these adaptors on ebay for many models. It's not possible to have two networks on one sim card.
The only true dual sim phone in the world is made by samsung and it's not available in the UK.
