Hi! I have a little problem with my Nokia 5.1 DS Plus on Android 10. I am using it with two T-Mobile polish SIM cards. When I had only my main one in the phone, the RCS Messaging in stock Messages app was working fine. However, when I install my second SIM card, which I use only for cellular data, I get "This device is not supported" error. What can I do to get RCS working when using dual sim?
EDIT: I discovered that changing main SIM card to the one I use daily fixes the problem. Is it possible for only Messages to use this card, and the second one for the rest?

brought a cheap adapter from ebay(copy of a magic sim i think) itworks on my very old eclair phone(even thought not suppose to) but when i insert it into my unlocked kestrel it defaults to sim 2 but doesnt install software to swtich it. if i take out sim 2, sim1 works fine so it isnt a connection issue.
tried a few multisim appsfrom playstore which dont work!
was wondering if emotion ui was stopping it installing as theres no app draw.
i have no idea how to switch to 007 mode either:s
any help would be appriated thanks
This was first flagged up by @ShootistUK on the Eragon ROM development thread but thought I would open a thread for it here as the other thread is getting long and is probably not the place to discuss this sim card.
Mine arrived today and I have spent many hours trying to get it working in my phones(Galaxy S3, Moto G 4G as well as the P8000) - I did manage to send and receive a text and make a call after installing their own messaging app(which they tell you to do) but so far have not managed to get data working at all despite it being basically a 3UK sim so it should use the same apn I would guess. I already have 3 other 3UK sims so am quite well versed in getting them working but so far the freedompop one has defeated me!
Hopefully ShootistUK will let us know if he has had any success(I doubt or if there is anyone else who has one of these sims please let me know.
Well, you have had more success than me. I fail to even get the application to work. It always gives me an error about using up all my premium minutes (or something similar) and to turn wifi off which does nothing at all to help. However I cannot get my 3-2-1 sim from 3 to work unless I make it the default data sim which pretty much defeats the object of having the sim in the phone alongside my vectone unlimited sim.
Hmmm, interesting - so your main sim is your vectone one(which is an EE mvno) - The problem with the 3 sim is that it cannot function in 2G mode and the p8000 doesn't allow you to run both sim slots in 3G mode so you are going to lose some functionality somewhere. What is your ideal setup by the way? I suspect it's not going to be achievable unfortunately...I am currently running my 3-2-1 sim as default for data/sms/calls and have a Vodafone payg as backup in case there's no 3 signal(so really for calls and the odd text too. I also have a tpo sim which I could use for backup but I don't think I can use the FP + 3-2-1 together and in fact can't even get the FP one fully working by itself. I may try again tomorrow in a different location in case it was a case of weak signal?? I'm sure I saw that error too but I'll see if I can replicate that issue again!
Well I have got both sims functioning at the moment by enabling default data sim as the 3-2-1 sim (but disabling data in the other menu so it doesnt use the data connection) and relying on wi-fi at home and work. At least this way I can receive and make calls/texts on both sims even though I can not use mobile data on the vectone sim and do not want to use the data on the payg sim. This is not in anyway a perfect solution but I suppose an issue with dual sim phones.
Yes, that's not ideal I guess but at least the vectone sim functions in 2G mode, I don't think it's possible to get two 3-2-1 sims working together.
Well I will now see if I can get my 3 pay monthly sim to work in the phone instead of the 3-2-1 sim using the same method. Just very annoying that they only work together if I have disabled data on the vectone and enabled and disabled the data on the 3-2-1 sim. Is there anyway to get the 3-2-1 sim and another sim working together with the data set to the non 3-2-1 sim? I like vectone for the price but willing to get another provider if I can get them to co-exist.
So you enable the data in the sim cards settings and disable in the data usage section, is that correct?
Simple answer is yes, make the 3-2-1 sim the preferred data sim and then disable the data in the data usage menu. Then both sims work for calls and sms. If i need mobile data I then make the vectone sim the data sim which turns the 3-2-1 sim off.
yeah that's a bit of a clunky solution but it's the only one that'll work unfortunately but you won't be able to get 2x 3UK sims working on 3G/4G at the same time I suspect...
I set up the phone (2 GB ram, 16 GB storage) for a relative and it works perfectly for voice calls on sim 2 (Rogers/2g) and data on sim 1 (HSPA). Thephone is running the latest stock ROM, no root, locked bootloader.
Receiving mms via the Rogers sim on a Samsung Note 2 works perfectly but mms does not come through on the Zenfone2. Data is enabled on both sim cards and I could find no way to have separate APN settings for each sim.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? Unfortunately, I don't have the phone in front of me so I can't play with the settings. I looked at the online manual and it looks like the Rogers sim card is limited to text messages while in sim slot 2.
Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks.
The phone will only use internet from sim1. MMS uses the internet to send/receive images and text so you can't send or receive on sim 2. Calls and txt will still work though...

Yes, SIM 2 on the Zenfone 2 is limited to only voice and messaging. Some of the newer Zenfone 2 models allow for 4G on both SIMs, but not the original ZF2
Guess my relative will be receiving pictures via email or iCloud. Thanks for the information.
Hey champs,
I got a strange issue with the swift. Last year I bought 3 Swifts for my wfe and kids. All of them equipped with two SIMs (1&1 for wired phone connections only, Simyo for cheap data flatrate and calls to mobile phone numbers). All phones have been upgraded to Android 6 so far. We use dual sim selector pro to do the call routing to the correct SIM, works like a charme. But regardless what I set in mobile data settings, after reboot the mobile data will always connect to 1&1 mobile networks (in fact it is vodafone) giving us one time a very high bill.
In the meantime I amended the vodafone APN to get rid of it, but this only leads to the situation, that after a reboot there is no mobile data at all. And since my son's phone is locked by funamo parental control, he is even not capable of swithcing mobile data by the settings.
Is there any chance to make the setting permanent? Is there any API call available, so I can get it managed e.g. by tasker? Is there an app available, that deals with data settings on dual SIM phones with Qualcom chipset?
Tnx in advance!
Glad to see I am not the only one with a problem, I live in Spain and use Orange SIM for data and voice, I also have a tesco voice only SIM which I use when in UK. Fine. I have exactly the same problem after a reboot or flat battery, "No Data Connection" when I check the settings it has changed to Tesco (which does not have data) Its only the data scource SIM that changes - voice and SMS remain as Orange. It is very annoying.
Same problem here with stock Android 6.0.1 Cyanogen OS 13.0-ZNH0EAS2NH and EE sims in slot 1 and 2... (one work and other personal).
Was thinking of returning phone, but apart from this problem, I really like it.
Latest Cyanogen OS update, (just installed), appears to have fixed my problem...
I updated, did a battery pull just for good measure, and with several restarts, the correct SIM appears to be selected each time.
Hi,
I've a Dual SIM phone (Oneplus 3) and I'm thinking about getting the FreedomPop Basic Plan (the free one) which offers 1GB for whatsapp data.
The thing is that I would like only Whatsapp using data connection through that SIM (even with 2g velocity) while other apps use my main SIM, so I can save the 200MB just in case I run out of MB on my main operator.
I've not found any app that can do this on Google Play Store (there are only apps to choose set a default SIM depending on the contact you want to call.
Is there any apk that can do this? Or some way to develop it?
Thank you!

No its impossible... you have to choose in settings which sim is for data... You cannot get 2x data's simultaneously ... Its either sim1 or sim2
