Hello,
as far as my research concluded the Note 10 doesn't support assigning contacts to a specific sim card.
While this isn't normally a problem since you can chose the setting to ask for each call, it is a problem when driving.
When starting the call from the car, it doesn't ask which sim card to use and therefore doesn't start the call at all.
Are there good alternative phone or contact apps which allow me to assign a specific sim to a contact?
Both the default app and the google phone app (currently my primary app) don't seem to support it.
Are there any good alternatives?
Thanks for any advice.

Try True Phone. Should be possible. This app has much more than just that.
Good question! I use all the time the dual sim function and it's such a non-sense having ro select all the time the SIM number I've got to use every single time... On my OnePllus 7T this used to be so simple....
Have been testing True Phone for about a month now and have been very happy with it so far.
Fixes my problem and allows a deep customization. Can absolutely recommend it.
I had a headache at work because of this. after all, a lot of necessary numbers were missing. I even lost my best friend's number, and besides, he moved to another city. But thank God I found a reference book, and it became easy to find a friend in France. I could not solve the problem with the phone. I had to buy a new one, I switched to an iPhone and am very pleased. And I advise you to go to the service or buy a new one.

I have recently purchased ACER DX900. As it supports 2 sims together, the default dialer has 2 call buttons : 'talk1' and 'talk2' enabling user to decide from which sim to make the call. As usual the default dialer is with small buttons. Is there any custom dialer available that supports 2 sims talk buttons or can any kind developer make a new one please.
Thanks in advance
having the same problem
Hi all,
I have the same problem with my Acer DX900. It would be nice to have a small tool running in the background that asks you what SIM to use after you pressed the "call-button".
For example, if you call a contact within SPB Mobile Shell, there is no way to select SIM1 or SIM2.
It would be great if someone has a clever solution.
Thank you in advance.

I'm actually going to have a dual sim for the first time in the end of this month. If its registry-based (and will probably be) I'll do a Flash app or a WM6.5 plugin to toogle cards.

as of now, there is no wm6.5 rom for dx900. hopefully you can make one
as for the dialer i am not sure if it's registry based, but the sms sending definitely is. i've already mase a simple switcher for it.
oh i didnt knew it could be so compartmentalized, i thought that one HAD to be inactive so that the other could run....

Dear tWolf
how 's the progress? Did you get Dx900?
Sorry, I completly forgot about this... I wanted to use my ISP offer to have a 3G connection with free slow internet, but I ended up changing to another operator where I have free limited internet.

So sad..
Any news about it?
i dialer for Acer dx900
can someone of the tech masters on this site tell me how I can have large dial pad on my Acer dx900. you know idialer will 2 sim selection ? please
not many help
got this device (DX900) from 2 days, but i must admit, suport for this is poor like hell. From 2 yeras I have also Kaiser and every 4-5 months my phone changed drasticly because of ROM cookers. Unfortunately I had enough to take my 2 phones everytime and uodate them both, so thats why dual sim is better even without so many features like on Kaiser
I want a big dialer too can anyone make this happen please ?
Any solution?
standard telephone dialer and dual SIM dialer
Can you please tell me where to find information about Android standard telephone dialer? Where is this software and function? I assume this is part of the telephone manager?
Can you please tell me the technique and software to make dual SIM work? Where can I find info?
Thank you.
Hi,
For long time i'm having some issue with calls voice.
Sometimes when i answer a call, i can hear the caller but he cant hear me for the first 5~ sec.
After that time (5~ sec) everything continue just as regular.
The issue is with me trough few Roms and Radio's.
Currently i'm with LeeDroid 2.0a and latest radio. non branded phone.
Anyone saw same ?
Bump
This sounds more like a problem with your provider (the phone company). Try finding a friend with a different company SIM, put it in your phone and see what happens: call people on your own provider, other providers, landlines, etc. assuming you know who is using what.
PS Since you rooted it, I assume you have also unlocked it if that was necessary, or maybe that comes for free, I really don't know, I bought mine unlocked
PS2 Putting a SIM in another phone may have the side effect of modifying some of its data (e.g. truncating contact names if they are too long for the new phone, deletion of non-standard data such as Calendar info). I don't know how the Desire behaves in this respect.
Hi,
A. I have SIMFREE device
B. Same provider worked like charm for 11 years now with every other phone.
C. I've saw some topics about same issue, just no one came to solution.
Which variant should I get? I just walked out of the store (Almost bought one) and they are telling me that it's a dual SIM. I honestly like the idea but I have several requirements which my next several questions are about.
Is ROOT, Busybox and a custom recovery available for this device?
In relation to question 2, is Xposed available for this device?
Is a reliable call recorder available? I badly need this since I speak to a lot of clients and recording my conversations with them helps me when I forget something that I discuss with them.
Is there an available kernel that will allow me to tweak the volume of the headset (much like Boeffla for those who have experience in this)?
Looking forward to your answers mates! Thanks!
Edit1 - How do I edit the title? Spelling mistake
1. the one which offers warranty in your country. is warranty available for both variants where you are ?
where i am there is only the dual sim and its a variant on dual sims available elsewhere. dual sim means no wireless charging possible at all. dual sim means only one sim can be used at a time because G4 dual sim is a dual standby not dual active ie it only has one radio and not two. So the other sim goes into standby if you use it all that is.
There is another point, whether you have 4g service in your country or not and whether it can support voice and data at the same time on one sim. Where i am 4g cannot (no VoLTE from the carrier) only 3g can. so if on 3g data, and get a call then i get the call and data stops but if i'm on 4g data then the caller gets a busy signal if using data at the time they called. Conversely if i get the call then i cannot browse the net while on the call (!)
This is where dual sim comes in. they can call the voice number (set up to forward to the other sim) and the data stops otherwise can continue to enjoy data at 4g speed.
In effect this means if you want to use 4g you need a second sim due to lack of VoLTE. otherwise put up with the slower speed of 3G and use just one sim.
2. root can be injected, there is no recovery available as bootloader unlock is not yet available for any variant besides the euro h815.
3. yes but its not completely stable. some modules work others don't. i'd give this some more time.
4. there is one in the stock but otherwise try ACR, it works quite well for me with another device.
5. not yet. this will only happen when botloader unlock becomes more widespread.

1. I'm unsure. I'd have to go back to the store and ask. I beleive(from experience) you cannot use voice and data at the same time on my carrier(s).
2. Read about that a bit, and from my understanding, the dual SIM is the H818, which I haven't found a root for. (This is honestly most likely a dealbreaker for me) But should I be expecting a reliable root and bootloader unlock soon?
3. I think this is applicable for all Xposed for 5.x and above no?
4. That's pretty neat that LG has one in built. I may not need root if this is the case. I'd have to check which applications use root and see if they are absolutely necessary.
5. Sounds good.
Quick question that I forgot to ask about though, I use AirDroid to manage, send and delete SMS from my device as it's a lot easier to do this on a computer screen. When I updated to KK/LP on my device, a whole plethora of problems arose such as not being able to delete/send SMS if an application was not the default SMS app.
In addition, I use Avast Anti Theft which heavily relies on SMS Commands. Is it still the case today?
Sincerely appreciate the well informed response mate

H818 has root for both dual sim variants. Check the dual sim thread in general. roosta has been doing a good job with it.

ACR does not need root, which device do you use now, try it with that.

Well, I went ahead and done it. I just got my device
Checking it out now. In fact, I already posted a question there about the root.
Well, I suppose I'll be finding out the rest soon enough.
Can't located the inbuilt call recorder though. Any directions as to where I can find it?

Oh, it's a voice recorder that you need to turn on manually? Will check out ACR and see if it works okay on the device. So much stuff to look at and migrate. Just spent the last 2-3 hours on migrating my data.
Thanks for all your help matey. You seriously helped convince me to buy this device.
Hello,
This is my first dual SIM phone.
One of the things I have been struggling is the fact that we need to choose which SIM we want to use.
I've been using an app called "Dual SIM Selector" but I would like to know what most of you guys are using to automate this selection.
Does anyone knows if there's a clever way of doing this task?
Does tasker, for instance, can do this, is there a better app?
Thanks.
Kavsko.
I'm not sure I understand you question fully but I struggled a bit with finding a suitable way to select sims when dialing. I am more using this phone dialer which held a lot. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hb.dialer.free
Im first dual sim phone here too, you can configure it in the sim setting which card is to use for phone/sms/internet. Or do you mean something else?

I'm using this Dialer too and is very easy to use. You can setup a contact list in Dual Sim settings where you can fix contacts to call with a specific sim card.
Good day all.
I am looking for either an app or a rom or anything else that might work on a rooted OnePlus 5T.
I need to allow all calls on the 1st sim even unknown numbers,
but I need to allow only contact numbers on the second sim.
The reason for this request being that the second sim is being used as a standby number at night and I need to be called only by escalation contacts on this second sim.
Being on call every single night and not having to lug around a second phone would be great.
Missing important calls on SIM1 due to DoNotdesturb mode being in effect for both simcards is the reason for this post.
I am looking for a way to have Do Not desturb enabled only on the second sim. (allowing contacts only)
I know ive seen this feature on the xiaomi red note 3
Im open to any suggestions, hacks / tasker instructions/ custom dailers / custom rom recommendations / anything else ?
Thanks guys,
