Two phone lines on the same SIM card - but which one is active?

I have two phone lines on my SIM card. Of course, only one of them can be active at one time. The switch between them is done through a SIM application which is loaded on the SIM card (supplied by the carrier)
My question is that, sometimes I forget which line is the active one. Is there any way of seeing my active phone line?
All my prior not-so-smartphones showed Line1 or Line2 in the home screen. But i could not find if iphone does this.
P.S. settings-phone-my number does not answer this question, as it always displays the phone number that the iphone is registered to.
Thanks

Your husband needs to put his sim in an iPhone & turn iMessage off to fix this. If your husband setup a support profile with Apple, he can also login to that support profile & remove the phone.

    Hi,
    No problem, similar treatment. Follow 
    1. Create IP SLA/Track for both internet link
    2. Break your LAN subnet into 2 smaller subnet
    3. Create route map, Match with 1 subnet & route the traffic towards 1st internet link
    route-map General_Internet_Traffic permit 10
    match ip address 115
    set ip next-hop verify-availability 10.1.1.1 track 1
    set ip next-hop verify-availability 11.1.1.1 track 2
    4. Create route map, Match with 2 subnet & route the traffic towards 2nd internet link
    5. Configure NATing/PATing over the interface, selecting by route-map

  • I can't make or receive calls in my iPhone 5(just bought second hand and unlocked), but I am able to use 3G network. If I use the same SIM card in other phone it works fine. I have tried network resetting and restore.

    I bought this cheap from an unknown persons. I have checked it is not in blacklist. And unlocked by apple.

    Those are all carrier features, so contact your cell phone provider.

  • Can I use the same sim card when I switch to the verizon edge plan?

    I will be receiving my new Samsung Galaxy s5 that will be on the Verizon Edge plan. It will be arriving with a sim card. Can I just take my current sim card on my current phone and just use it with the s5? or will I have to use the sim card it comes with because I switched to the Edge plan?

    You should be able to use the same SIM card; if they are different sizes, you can get an adapter or go ahead and use the SIM card that comes with the phone.

  • Can I switch back and forth the same sim card between an old iPhone 4 and a new one never used in order to activate the latter? Should I use same Apple Account?

    Can I switch back and forth the same sim card between an old iPhone 4 and a new one never used in order to activate the latter? Should I use same Apple Account? Should I activate it via WiFi or iTunes? I am filtering on the MAC no and I cannot read that number from the new iPhone without having it activated??!!
    All I want do is to have the new phone activated and then tested!

    Yes, you can do that.

  • Many of the times my Iphone 3G 16GB shows "No Service" in the specific network area, but if the same sim card is used with other mobile handset in the same network area its shows full network, Is this a Iphone 3G Handset problem or is network

    Many of the times my Iphone 3G 16GB shows "No Service" in the specific network area, but if the same sim card is used with other mobile handset in the same network area its shows full network, Is this a Iphone 3G Handset problem or is it a problem with network service provider for iphone in india with Airtel.

    Try to reset Network setting thru (Setting/General/Reset/Reset Network Setting - after clicking on it the phone will ask to reboot)
    According to my R&D I have experienced that one must reset the network each time when we r at home or in office or other places, the phone after resetting the network setting acquires the area specific network setting n works well, try it & if any other solution do let me known
    Calling up customer care did not help me, they do keep us in a loop with the same old answeres that “Our technical team is working on it & WILL GET BACK TO u” leaving us with no solution at the end
    Try what I suggest think to will help u

  • Hi, I installed iOS6 beta without registering it to the developer program. Now on iTunes and on my phone I get the same "We're unable to complete your activation" error. What do I do?

    Hi, I installed iOS6 beta without registering it to the developer program. Now on iTunes and on my phone I get the same "We're unable to complete your activation" error. What do I do?

    You have to restore your phone. To do this turn off your phone and disconnect it from your pc or mac. You then have to plug in the usb part of your sychronize cable into your pc or mac. Open itunes. Now press and hold on the home button on your iphone and plug the cable into it while still holding down the home button. Your iphone will now be in recovery mode and on itunes you will see the option that says restore. Click on that and your phone will be restored to factory settings. If you backed up your itunes all your apps will be downloaded back on to your phone. Including all your contacts and text messages. It took me a couple of tries to restore my phone when this happened so if it doesnt work the first time do it again. Took me two tries.

  • My wife and I each have an Ipad and only one mail account. Both of us receive the same e-mails but when one of us deleates an e-mail it also deleates on the other Ipad. How can I stop this? I might delete an e-mail she wants to read. Thanks

    My wife and I each have an Ipad and use only one mail account. Both Ipads therefore get the same mail and when either one of us deleates an email it also deleates on the other Ipad and this can be a problem if one of us doesn't want that e-mail deleted. Obviously our Ipads are synced and I don't know how to correct this. Any advice ?

    If you both have the same email account, there's no setting on iPad you can use.  When a message is deleted, it's deleted from the mail account server, which will happen on both devices. 

  • Can I use the same sim card from my iPad 1 and use it in my new iPad 3 4G?

    I have been having difficulty getting a straight answer please someone help me. I have an unlimited plan on my old sim that cannot be transferred I'm really hoping I can use the same one

    From what I understand the AE cards from the last model PM G5s will go into a MP although I would not suggest you do this as it's not as if you're going to save a stack of money over it. It's not going to support 802.11n connection formats and may not have the correct electrical requirements so may damage your MP.
    For instructions, try searching Google.

    Hi and welcome
    On your BT home hub can you confirm that the handset light is lit?

  • Two safari browsers on the same Mac- how to remove one?

    Since my windows PC broke, I had used my kids' mac min lately. In order to complete an on-line form I had to instal the 4.0 version of Safari. I followed the instructions on the website (with the form) and linked to apple and downloaded version 4.0 that works ok. BUT, version 3.0 is still installed and I hadn't figured it out how to uninstall it - having both browsers on this minicomputer with limited memory slows it down.
    So, how do I uninstall the old version?

    Thanks for the welcome
    It is the 4.0 version. However the shortcut on the desktop still opens a 3.0 version (I just cannot find the 3.0 version under applications any longer, or any uninstall/remove programs options). I was wondering if , once I fix my PC or get a MAC of my own, I should just remove Safari as a whole and reinstall the older version.
    Sorry, but this is the first MAC we owed, and a lot of stuff is not structured like on a regular PC.

  • IPhone 4S fell on some water, was working but now won't work. I got a replacement coming. Can I use the old Sim card in the new phone if it wasn't damaged? Will I get my pictures and contacts and messages back if it wasn't damaged?

    My iPhone 4S accidentally fell into a very shallow bit of water. The phone was wet, but worked afterwards for a short bit. Now it's not working, so I called and got a replacement phone coming. Same exact phone. Can I use the old Sim card in the new phone without harming anything? I don't know if the sim card got messed up or not, but I had a lot of pictures and messages and my contacts on my phone, and I assume these were on the sim card or am I wrong? I just wan to know if I can use the old sim card if it's still working in the new phone that is coming, as long as there was no damage to it? Thanks

    I think I had it on the iCloud, I just changed computers and had part of my old computer backed up, where are the default iTunes info saved like the pictures and I know my contacts were backed up cuz I kept getting updated stuff that I wasn't sure about, but it was contacts where some belonged to my wife's contacts....but anyway, if the cloud backed up contacts, it should have grabbed pictures too? Like I asked before, if they were backed up to the computer, is there a default iTunes folder they are saved to? I had a crap load of pictures on there that I usually could really access if I was connected to wi-fi. I turned off my data stuff as I only have 4GB and between me and my 2 kids, we seemed to use up a lot of it. My son would play music from Pandora during work, and use up all our data til I limited him to only 3GB, my daughter and I barely used 1GB. Anyway, thanks to everybody that is answering. I thought I might have done good finding the dang sim card, but pointless I guess.
    Ralph - F.Y.I. I would be happy to back up the iPhone if I could turn it on LOL......I am pretty positive I did, but what about Text messages? ANY of those saved too or not? Sorry guys, I don't know a **** of a lot about cell phones, but I do know about memory cards, but not sim cards that act like memory cards or look like them anyway. What is the purpose of a sim card if I may ask a stupid question since they don't hold any data from my phone stuff. I just hope my stuff comes back on the new replacement phone once I get it up and running. Again, thanks to everybody for the edumucation.
