Can't imagine it not working, if there is two sim slots in the little drawer, I would assume it'd work....
Maybe it is some sort of software error. Have you tried a factory reset and see if it works after that?
Does vodafone in any way make any changes to the stock firmware (apart for maybe adding some customized Vodafone bloatware...)?

My money is on the firmware not supporting Dual Sim. Most carriers hate the idea of Dual Sim as its in there interest to prevent you using anyone else's sim apart from the sim they sold you with the phone. :crying:

i like to know if there is room enough above the sim to use a duosim from duosim.xcom ?
Anyone an idea?
come on , is there any room to place a dual sim ?
Oh, wow. That stuff looks cool. Now I'm curious too.
Yes, there should be room enough.
So, I've tried it and yes it fits but it doesn't work.
The TD has 8 connections to the SIM card and the Magic Sim (www.dual-sim.nl, 16th cut version) has 6 connections. It is 16th gen card which they propose to use for smartphones....
It works on my old Nokia 6021. This phone has 6 connections to the SIM Card.
The cutted SIM Card doesn't work anymore on the TD so I have to purchase a new one. I have sent a mail to dual-sim.nl. I will post the outcome.
number of contacts is irrelevant. Only 6 contacts are used for sim cards, the last 2 are RFU (reserved for future use).
If i read you right, after you cut up your sim card it doesnt work anymore? even directly in the phone without the dual sim? If thats the case your broke your sim while cutting it. The dual sim may or may not work still.
The cutted SIM doesn't work in the TD but does work in the Nokia 6021.
The Magic Sim doesn't work in the TD but does work in the Nokia 6021.
So, my assumption was that the cut is the reason that the SIM card doesn't work anymore on the TD. Strange that it still works in the 6021??
No, there is an incompatability between the magic sim and the touch diamond it sounds like. Only 6 contacts on the sim are used, the last two do nothing.
So if it works fine in your 6021 and not the TD, then its the magic sim that has the problem.
What error do you receive? no sim/insert sim?
SIM card is seen, Magic Sim program is available in teh TD but it doesn't register to the network.

Hmm thats really strange. What happens when you manually register?
It lists the available networks. KPN (my provider) in one of the them. If I try to connect to this netwerk the same thing occurs: can't register... I can try another network (roaming)?
Hmm that means the IMSI is not being passed corectly.
Sounds like a bug with the multisim itself. Another brand might work.
Not all new USIM cards works fine.
Put your phone on GSM mode instead of WCDMA or Auto.
Then the Dualsim works fine.

Due to your questions I tried it again and came to the conclusion that the cutted SIM card didn't work in the TD because it didn't contacted completely. I also saw a different kind of slide for the Magic Sim which leads to a better contact of the Magic Sim to the TD and now everythong works!!
Thanks someone1234 for taking the effort ask further

Thats great! no problem.
Does the Dual-sim 16th gen. non-cut version also fit into the TD?
I don't think my employer will appreciate it if I would cut my KPN sim-card of my company phone...
anyone tried the 20th gen dual sim adapters yet?
I have just bought an LG P880 and to my horror found that it does not work with my sim card.
Here are the details:
Three Sim card (GA6047) monthly contract
LG P880 unlocked
I have tried the following sim cards and they do work
O2
Orange
I have tried a factory reset and a hard reset with the Three sim card in and out, each time it fails to detect it.
I have tried the Three sim card in the following phones and it does work
HTC 7Pro
Nokia N900
Samsung Galaxy Europa (The phone it came with)
While waiting for Three customer services I tried the Three sim card out of my mobile broadband GA6029 and was shocked to find that it did work.
So here i am with two three sims, one works with the phone, the other doesnt not.
All three said was to go to a shop so they can see it for themselves.
Do any of you have any ideas?
3G is activated? :silly:
Get a new SIM-card ... But it's best if you go to a three store and try one of their sim cards first. Pretty sure it will work. Maybe the sim card batch you got is faulty somehow and just not recognized by the phone. Exchanging the simcard shouldn't cost you anything if there's a technical problem.
Strange. My three sim works. It's a micro sim in an adapter. Maybe there is an alignment problem?

With android I don't know...
With the old K990 I just had to flash with an open firmware.
I have full size three sim works fine, but make sure data is enabled or you won't get a signal...
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
Ok, so an update.
I went to the three store yesterday. They let me try one of their demo sims and that worked. So they gave me a new sim. But once the sim activated, it yet again didnt work. Same as before though. The sim works in several other phones.
Does anyone know about different sim types?
The sim is a normal mini sim. But i am guessing that their are diferent sims for different phones?
Try microSIM from three. Maybe it helps.

I had the same problem with italian sim. I discovered that pulling the sim 1mm over the battery solve the problem. Maybe the contacts of the reader and the ones of the sim are not at the same distance when the sim is full inside the reader.
Hope will help

i am not sure its FULL size, since that includes the sim tray which in early 90s and forward was a complete card with simchip you could push out
the regulars or todays sim are mini-sim cards.see more here
I have lurked so much around XDA and still I have no solution
I own a Moto X XT1053 on Movistar (Mexico)
Everything was working fine until I got my SIM card replaced. Now Voice and SMS don't seem to function but Data from my carrier works fine.
When I try to dial I get a "Mobile network not available"
I have done "fastboot oem config carrier (all possible options) No luck.
I have switched from 4G to Edge since that seems to be the solution for many but that didn't work for me.
Yes I have searched for networks and selected "Choose Automatically" No luck.
I have flashed back to stock firmware using T-Mobile's firmware (which has always been my solution and everything worked flawlessly) but now that doesn't work. I've actually not a fan of custom roms I only do stock and xposed the [email protected]#$! out of it but even a clean stock doesn't seem to fix it.
I even went to Movistar and they believe its my phone since they tested my sim on another phone and voice worked on theirs.
Any thoughts on what could be the solution? Please Help!
Check the APNs?

I think your first statement supersedes your latter statement and everything in between. Just because your new SIM worked properly in another phone doesn't mean it's guaranteed to work in your moto x. Maybe for some reason your moto x is reading the sim as a data only Sim, or maybe it's registering on the network as a data only Sim.
did you cut the Sim to nano or did it come as nano?
Did you try a different SIM in your Moto X?

They did try another Sim on my phone and same, no good. Voice seemed to work on other phones. I personally believe my phone was blacklisted. When I went to get my Sim changed I forgot to mention the account was under my moms name. Now my new Sim is under my name but with the number of another owner (my mom). Which could explain why I get no voice or SMS but data works fine. I am actually on my way to customer service right now.
Well just returned from customer service. No good. Its the phone itself. :/

Have you solved the problem? I'm using Samsung Galaxy S5 and has similar problem... After couple of times of change rom the problem occur... I'm not genius and I have struggle with this problem for more than 2 weeks... See whether we can work this out...
My situation is:
1. Voice: out of service, data: inservice;
2. IMEI: seems normal
3. I tried two SIM card with different ISP, neither work;
4. I also try that two SIM card on my iphone4, both work well.
5. Since my phone is G900F HK version, and I'm currently in UK, so I tried latest UK stock firmware and latest HK stock firmware. Same...
I had do some searching and said that there are few reason that might lead to this problem:
1. IMEI error. Flash rom may damage your partition, if your IMEI is 0046*** or 0000*** something then this is the case;
2. Baseband related. Just flash some wired rom that no capable with your local bands?
3. still looking...
Good luck then...
Same thing
Did you ever solve this? I am having the same problem on my Moto x Pure 2015.
Hi , have bough the dual sim tray, but need help to make my Phone dual sim if anyone knows how to alter the system to recognise a second sim ?
Sorry if this has been asked before, am new here
cheers
Two words: Funky Huawei.
Beware.
I have rebranded and then changed over to dual SIM using funky Huawei. I was left with a fully functional dual SIM and broken speaker sound volume. It was stuck at 20% and no matter how many resets I did could not get it fixed.
You also loose bootloader unlock using Funky Huawei. I luckily had my phone replaced under warranty...

The only way is to use the funky Huawei method. You must pay for it. Go to Funkey Huawei site and you have all the info. These is also a thread here in XDA.
I changed my CLT-L09 single-sim in a CLT-L29 dual sim in april-2018.
No problem at all. I have a dual-sim phone and all goes well. Also I have had all the OTA update from Huawei.
The only problem is that you can't root the phone anymore, even if you buy the unlock code from a site. This because Funkey change the bootloader code to enable the dual-sim code, and there is no unlock code that works.
I am from Bangladesh. Bought an s21 ultra SM-G9980 2 months back. Today it shows no Simcard. The Sim card manager section is not working. I tried flight mode, soft reset, factory reset & at last flash entire firmware with Odin. But no luck. Except for cellular, all things go well. I attached picture

Could be a sim issue. Try another sim and check if it's working.

None of the Sims are working in either sim 1 or sim 2 tray, or is it a problem with only one of the sim trays? ( I'm assuming you have a dual physical SIM device...)
Then it's either a reset or a visit to the service center I guess...
So the Sim worked for 2 months then just stopped working? Did you make any modifications like using a different Sim or change your Network Service Provider? The SM-G9980 has 3 different firmware options, China, Taiwan and Hong Kong, did you flash the Home CSC Firmware? In a properly functioning device any legitimate working Sim should automatically populate in the Sim Manager. If it doesn't it's likely a hardware issue.
