[Q] "Emergency calls only" - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Zenfone 2 always shows "emergency calls only" on the lockscreen and in the notification pulldown even when there's a working SIM in.
I'm on Vodafone UK.
Is this the same for everyone?

Rowbaggie is correct, when you put a sim card into a phone, there are 2 processes during this time
1) handset check the network and perform LU ( location update)
2) if it succeed, then it will pull out all profile details. the SIM card by default would have the postpaid, prepaid 3G, 4G APN in it.
by default network will automate append this APN so user does not have to set it ( unlike wap services)
my guess is that your APN got screwed up, you can go to your service provider website and check for the correct APN to use.
Or call them up.
By the way, APN is also known as Access point in 802.xx. in 3GPP standard it is call APN.

Thanks guys...but my api settings are correct. 3G and 4G works fine.

are you able to try this sim on the 3G/4G slot?
lets test it out to eliminate sim slot failing.
perform single sim one 2G first
then perform single sim on 3G/4G
post the result,
next try to put Sim A to 3G/4G and sim B to 2G slot
flip the case and post result.
sound like sim card is not attached to network properly. could be sim loose from slot. i can be wrong.

Ok last night I took sim card out of my phone,its Asus zenfone. Now today the phone won't even read the card ,what do I do?

[Q] HTC Desire 816 dual

Hi everyone.
It's m'y first experience with Android on HTC device. I have two number with data plan so I want whether it's possible to switch between the two sim cards to go on Internet and how to do it.
Thanks
Only the first Sim slot connects with 3G so there's not much of a point for using snail paced data on second Sim.
that said, you can easily change "preferred data network" in "Dual Network Manager" section in settings.
Thann you for your seekfind but I don't have the option to choose a preferred network.
Sent from my HTC_D816d using XDA Free mobile app
I don't know about 816d variant but generally 816 has this option in settings>Dual Network Manager. at the same place there is an option to turn on and turn off your sim slots. also, have you setup your Access point names(APNs) correctly for each sim card in mobile data section?
Yes the APN are good and I use both of them for internet, but for now to use internet with the second sim, I turn off me first one so I can't receive call anymore. My friend has a LG dual Sim too but his phone has a function to do it easily without turn off the first slot, maybe it's the same for HTC but I don't know how activate it.

SIM2 Not Working

Hi all,
Just got my Zenfone 2 yesterday and was super stoked, however the SIM2 component is not working. I have two SIM cards, one with Telus and one with Virgin Mobile. (Canadian carriers). No matter which order I put them in, the SIM2 card never works. The Zenfone 2 is able to identify the phone number associated with the SIM card in the SIM2 slot, but it is unable to actually make a network connection.
Anyone know how to get SIM2 working?
just update to the latest rom... I did and got my Sim1 working again!!

SIM2 is 2g only. So it needs to be Rogers (or network that uses Rogers) to work
Sent from my ASUS_Z00AD using XDA Free mobile app
Only SIM card slot 1 can access 3G/4G/LTE data. SIM card slot 2 can only be used for 2G service which include voice and basic text messaging (Not multimedia messaging services MMS or internet browsing). http://www.asus.com/us/Phones/ZenFone_2_ZE551ML/HelpDesk_knowledge/

I know this is an old thread but i was wondering if anyone has found a solution to this issue? I am having the same issue trying to get Sim2 to recognize a network. The number on the Sim card is recognized. I have tried switching the cards around and the result is always the same. Both providers that I am with are in Canada. One sim is with Bell and the second is with Virgin Mobile.
Are you saying you can't even make calls on sim2?

How to use AT&T VOLTE and WiFi Calling?

Hi everyone, I'm on an unlocked/rooted/xposed G928T on AT&T, and I'm wondering if it's possible to enable those features through my AT&T SIM. When I enable WiFi Calling in settings, it simply pops up an "invalid SIM" error as I'm not a T-Mobile customer.
Furthermore, even though I have the proper APN set up and AT&T has an iPhone 6+ IMEI in the system for my SIM (so VOLTE is set up on their end), I can't seem to get VOLTE to work either.
Any ideas? Perhaps I need a system dump of the AT&T version to piece it all together?
Thanks in advance!
First is to make sure you have a UICC-G sim. The 9th and 10th digits of a VoLTE-capable UICC-G SIM card will be either 27 or 28.
@cblackledge Thanks for the reply, however I used this SIM in my iPhone 6 Plus and VOLTE functioned without problems.
No such luck here, however :/
@SolarTrans did you go into to phone setting and cut it on

Pls reply

Any idea where to find?
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using XDA-Developers mobile app
yes, but may depend on carrier, and it's worked since before 3.2.X for me
USA T-Mobile VoLTE works fine.
I've heard USA AT&T VoLTE isn't working yet though. Outside the USA don't know.
Not only is it supported, but you get this ridiculously stupid VoLTE icon in your status bar when you're connected! Hooray!
Yes its supported. Using JIO

Long press anywhere on the screen you will get 3 options Wallpapers Widgets Customize.
Go to Customize Swipe right Twice to get to the icon pack changer. The icon pack in the Screenshot is Rifon.

Currently you can buy a LYF phone and you will get a JIO connection with it. But it will be locked to that specific handset.
To get a Sim free from handsetlock you need a employee/retailer demo sim.

Im using idea on Sim 1 and Jio Sim 4G on sim 2
Make sire you put the network type to lte on JIO and gsm on the other one.
If you choose LTE for your other sim, since the handset can only support lte fir 1 sim at a time it puts the JIO sim into gsm. And JIO has only LTE band. No 2g or 3g bands. Hence the network drops.

As far as i know. When you choose the mobile data sim in sim cards menu. The option of network type disappears from the settings of the other one. For example. Please look at the attached screenshots.

Yes thats true.. since u told me to set lte for jio sim and gsm for other sim i was confused. At a time only one data connection will be enabled. so i guess the frequent drop is not related to that. Do u face any issue with network drop? im using jio in slot 1 and after couple of hours the network drops and it goes to no network.

The data drops sometimes but comes back usually within seconds. If it doesnt i put on airplane mode and take it off again. That works. But its too rare. I use idea in slot 1 jio in slot 2

sim 2 mobile data not connecting

I am using mi max 128 GB. mobile data is not connecting with sim 2. With sim 1 it's connecting fine. I tried to connect only 2g also but no use. I had verified the sim with other phone and it's working fine. Both my sims are BSNL and both have working data plans. I tried removing and reinserting sim, rebooting, tinkering with *#*#4636#*#* but nothing worked. To be precise nano sim is working for data connection but micro sim slot i.e sim 2 slot sim is not working for data connection but working fine for calls and messages. Please tell me what to do?

I´m not on Miui to test it, but if you got to Settings -> Sim Cards you can click on Sim-Card 2 and there are some settings like prefered Sim Card Settings or something like that.There you can choose something like for data connection
I bet you've already tried that, haven't you?

Yes that is the procedure to change the data connection from one sim to other sim. Do I have to go to service center?

I can´t give you an answer for that. I´m in Germany and here is no Xiaomi Support for their Devices. If I was you, I would flash another Rom and test it, but if you have a normal warranty you can go to the next service center and let check it by Xiaomi.

Two Sim Cards from the same network will not work. Try using a different network sim card in slot 2 and check if it works. When you use two simcards from the same network, are you able to call using sim2?
can you not select it from the bottom menu i can switch sim one or 2 but cannot use both at once
APN
From how much time you are facing this issue?
Is it appeared randomly?
Or it happened after doing something?
