Hi there,
I tried to gather my info on this and other forums however I don't have the answer yet.
I am using a T-Mobile MDA III with WM5 (compliments to everyone making it possible). Because of a large number of monthly phonecalls I want to use two SIM Cards. For this I want to buy a dual sim card.
Preferably a sim card where I don't have to cut the SIMS.
Does anyone have working dual sim cards?
What is the cheapest place to buy these?
Do they work under WM5?
Do I need a Sim toolkit...etc.... is this allready available?
Does anyone know a kind of software like vivit (which makes it easy to switch?)
Thanks for your reply!
regards
Wilfried
anyone?
I have an SX66 and have had good experience with this dude called SaintJoy0_3 on ebay. maybe do a search for him. I am not sure if the Top Twin Card dual sim adapter he sells will work with your MDA III
I agree with snapper245, this guy sells the "king of Doublecard" dual sim adapter for Blue Angels on eBay. I have one & it works fine with WM2003SE. However I have not yet tried it with WM5 as I know that the software I use to switch SIMs (Wivit SSS) doesn't work with WM5. Once WM5 has a stable bluetooth (if it ever does) I'll consider upgrading
Hy, i've now the same of may old nokia6600 and it's ok
But i've w2003se.
sorry, I should have been more clear. I ran it successfully with WM5 on my BA.

wow thanks.
where did you buy the thing?
And did you have to cut the thing? Thanks for your reactions.

I would like to purchase T-mobile MDA-3 for use in the USA and Europe. Can I just put in my US simcard and will it work or does it need to be unlocked? What should I look out for? ANy suggestions would gratly be appreciated?
Most come unlocked. I just recived my MDA III, it was T-Mobile branded when I recived it. Came in a German T-Mobile Box, but my ROM was English. I bought mine through Tiger-Direct.
Do you mind if I ask how much you paid for it? Also, will my current T-Mobile sim drop in and work?
The MDA3 is quad band so you should be able to use it anywhere in the world! So long as you have roaming set up on your sim you should be fine!
Not so sure about the locking though!
I am using it in the US
I have an iMate PDA2K in the US and it works just fine. T-Mobile gets a bit confused when you call tech support and their system can't automatically recognize your device, but I just tell them that I have one of their HP Windows Mobile models that they sell in the US and they seem cool with it. All I did was swap in my SIM card and it started working right away. GPRS, etc all works fine.

Hi all!
which is the best dual SIM (sometimes called ghost sim, or twin sim) adapter for prophet?
I saw many auctions on ebay, but I don't know which one to buy.. :?
is this good?
http://cgi.ebay.it/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...50007856399&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWA:IT&rd=1
Of course I don't want to cut the SIM, but I don't know if there is enough room for bending the adaptor, or if it does fit well and it isn't too thick..
I also saw this one (I know that it requires to cut the sims):
http://cgi.ebay.it/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...50007376601&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWA:IT&rd=1
is this ok? or is it too thick?
If someone is successfully using such a device, could kindly answer to this thread? :?:
It would be great if I could see some images of the PDA and the adapter...
Thank you :wink:
i too wouldnt mind knowing this.?
anyone?
Yeah... me too
None of the duo sims adapters you pointed out are good.
You need to find an ANALOG duo sim.
The digital version drains the battery.
http://www.vavolo.com/productdetails.asp,ProductID,2397,,.htm
You will need to cut your cards - no way around it.
You can also find these at Ebay.

I sell the proper ones for this phone model
Price is £13 delivered anywhere in the UK
E-mail me at [email protected] for more details
If you are unsure of me then check in the universal and the orbit forums where members have bought from me before

Dual Card Simore
Hi all,
I found and buy the Black type I from Simore.
I've made a test there : http://bbtiloute.free.fr/BQTel/Simore.htm
I said, at the end, I made it for Mobiles-Live.com, friends of me, but don't worry : 'I' am Ti-Loute, and it's a free access ;-)
But ... It's wrote in french ...

Brando - Powerful Dual Card (10th era)
I'm using this one for more then a year and never have any problem and it's only $27.00US...
http://mobile.brando.com.hk/PowerfulDualCard10.php
No need to cut card
No need to switch power to set card
Love It!
Not for Prophet ?!?
Yes, it should be better if we didn't have to cut card.
But it seems not to be compatible with Prophet (the original question ;-)) Does it ?
hi ti-loute.
Do you know if the silmore dual sim works with a 3G/EDGE sim (can you connect to the Orange wap for exemple with your sim in the adapter ?)
Hi Tonio,
My SIM card is working on EDGE'.
When I was using the Wap, I did it through GPRS, but Orange has 'loosen' my GPRS connection when I've taken my S200 under 'fidelity' program.
So, I can't promise that Wap is compatible with that card ... But technically, I don't know why it wouldn't be right ...
It must be magicsim dual sim. I'm using their new 26th 3g dual sim, very nice
Hi,
I just got myself a T-mobile Artemis (dutch version).
Pretty content with it, but still figuring out how to use that internal GPS receiver. Tomtom 6 starts up but the searching for sattelite takes rather a long time and I give up in the end. (yes, QuickGPS was succesfully used)
But the GPS troubles are not my main concerns.
I live near the border between belgium and Holland and have two phones. I am going to be unlocking my Artemis using the currently only available method.
Once unlocked I'd like to be bale to put both my sim cards into my Artemis.
The only solution I could find was
http://www.hot-wire-telekom.de/index.php?aktion=detail&suche=HTC P3300&&asuche=HW130010
and
http://www.hot-wire-telekom.de/index.php?aktion=detail&suche=HTC P3300&&asuche=HW130724
Has anyone tried this before and does it work. Any other solutions out there I should know about. And which option to go for, the digital or analog (I roughly know the difference just not how they relate to my sim cards).
I thank you all now for the help you'll give me.
Found one that works no cutting up your sim needed
Hi all,
I've got a private and company sim and have used my Magician with a Brando 10th era dual sim adapter.
Tried it with my htc p3300 and it works flawlessly. No need to cut your sims.
Only thing I have to figure out how to fit the battery cover.
For my Magician I removed a bit from the battery.
Might be possible but first will have to get me an experimenatal battery

here ya go!
I am told that GSRM (data) does not work but calls do.
Have you had any luck with data?

Actually I am guessing I meant GPRS?

Hi,
Does anyone work with a dual sim adaptor on their htc p3300 and which one?
I bought one on Ebay once but it didn't work.
So to put in 2 sims and switch in the phone from one sim to another without having to open the phone...
Thanks!

Yes it worked for me
Yes it worked for me with original ROM WM5 on my O2 Orbit. And it was about 1 year ago. Now I am with cooked ROM WM6.1 and did not tried after upgrade. Have you tried it with another brands like Nokia, Sony, etc...?
