Hey because the mi note pro has no NFC is there Any way to add it?like with an adapter or so?I need it for my door to open.
I know there are SD cards but I can't find where to buy
Any other way?
Thanks
anyone who can help
No there is no way to have nfc, apart from sd cards which mi note pro does not support. Only other way is a Sim card with a nfc reader. Ask your phone operator.

so yesterday i swapped SIM cards from iphone 6s and note 5 but the issue is that i'm idiot , because i have inserted the iphone 6s sim tray in the note 5 by mistake :crying: :crying:
then i have gently removed the iphone 6s tray from the note 5 and everything was fine and didn't look like i broke something in the sim card reader , but after inserting the right tray with the sim , my note 5 didn't recognize it , that moment i knew my life turned upside down and became like hell ! , i've been searching in the last 2 days for a solution but i didn't find any tutorial on youtube , i didn't even find sim card reader for sale !!! , i don't even think that i can replace the sim card reader with a new one even if i had the chance to get a new sim card reader because the note 5 sim card reader isn't similar to the other sim card readers
please help meeeeeee , i'm confused i can't even sleep i keep thinking about what would happen if this problem stays for ever ! AND i didn't forget that i'm stupid
thank you
Hi,
I'm Daniel from Brazil,
I've read your history and I'm afraid passing by the same problem,
Early days I update my note 5 for 6.0.1 Indian ROm from SamMobile, and my phone didn't conect on operator network any more, just sinalize Emergency Call Only, So, I thought this was a problem with my new Rom and Since saturday try 12 Rom/s 2 customs and 10 differents between 5.1..1 and 6.0.1.
And them I finally read your topic and came to my mind that before update I change Sim Card from my Note 5 and put by the wrong side the Sim Tray.
I'm thinking that my Sim Card Reader can be broke.
I will sinalize this problem for the TI support tha is analyzing my phone.
Thanks for this topic and i try to see if this can be fixed.
I could say to will try to find a person that fix MotherBoards and can make a laser welding.
In Brazil there is sim tray note 5 to sell:

i just was wondering if i can install dual sim card reader in my note 5 , knowing that it came with 1 sim card reader exactly like your's
and by the way i don't know what makes the single sim reader more expensive than the dual sim reader ! ,
on ebay:
single sim reader reaches 17$
dual sim reader reaches 5$ with free shipping !
what an awkward logic .....
fixed it costed me about 150$
Hey everyone, apologies if this has been answered but I couldnt find a clear cut explanation from searching.
I have the single sim varient of the phone and I'm aware that its possible to place a second sim via an external cable.
I was wondering if something like this would work for a single sim variant?
It's a product from Simore and its a dual sim hybrid that allows the use of two sim cards and the micro sd card.
It mentions that its made for dual sim but could someone explain to me why it wouldnt work with my model?
Asking before I make the purchase.
Thanks for all your help
Hey all, so looking at the sim trays for the p20 lite and the pro they seem almost identical, with the p20 like sd one looking a bit longer than the dual sim version (which matches the p20 pro one from the images I can find).
It makes sense in my mind that they would have a similar board and internal layout to save on production cost of the different models, so I'm wondering if anyone has tried the p20 lite tray in the p20 pro. I do see more contacts than just a single sim would need, however there is a dual sim model of the phone, I can't get a good enough view to see if there are any that mach up with an sd card.
I've been googling and can't seem to find any evidence of anyone else suggesting or trying this. I would greatly love to be able to put my sizeable music collection on an sd card for this phone, I knew when upgrading that it was pretty much a given that it wouldn't have a micro sd card slot but I wonder if this has potential to work, especially after discovering my music collection is larger than I thought, and with the difficulty I'm having copying it to this device, where if it had an sd card tray, I could just pop it in.
Simply, no. There is no micro SD card tray for P20 and P20 pro...

Has it actually been tried? There is also the mate 20, which looks similar, but there aren't nearly as many pictures to compare the two types.
The ifixit teardown pictures are relatively unhelpful in trying to see if there are also sd card contacts physically present.
I sell these phones at work. No it doesn't work (I did try just on the of chance you were correct) they are completely different internally.

Well, that's a shame.
You cant put micro usb to type C port. Its the same with this, the port is for a sim, not for a microSD card. )

That's a horrible example, that situation is a ridiculous one, whereas manufacturers will often share parts between the same line of phones, it's cheaper to do that because you need less board revisions, you don't change the assembly line nearly as much, and you don't need to buy different parts, in this case it would be the physical pin assembly that would have the contacts for the sd card. This is already obvious since they ship the single sim units with a different tray, but you can root the phone and there's some sort of paid service to enable the second sim.
Hello just bought the phone, everything is fine except that although it's a dual sim phone and according to many sites like gsmarena have a dedicated slot for sd, can't find any single guide that explain how to have sd card & dual sims enabled. Anyone can step in and help a bit? ty in advance
It's a hybrid SIM device so You can use SIM+SD or 2 SIM cards at the same time. For "full Dual SIM" You would need an adapter like this one:

I use one with my Xiaomi Mi Max 2 and it works fine. However I don't have full cover case for my Z3 Play, so I dunno where I could hide this thing.
Hello,
On this page : https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/dipper , I can read that the mi 8 supports SD card up to 256 GB (hybrid sim slot).
Could anybody who owns this phone confirm this information ?
mi8 doesn't have an sdcard slot
Thank you Rdzeniuch
You can insert an SD card with a "Hybrid Sim Slot Phone into A DUAL SIM + MICRO SD"
Search the web and you will easily find how to do it.

Please do not spread false information, Xiaomi Mi 8 doesn't have an sdcard slot, it only have dual sim, the adapter you mention only works to add a second sim to a device that has an hybrid slot (sim + sim or sdcard)

Mr. jrafael, the fact that you are a "Senior Member" does not mean that you understand more than me or others.
I'm not "spread false information", that's what I found on the net (Mostly from India).
There are hundreds of tutorials and videos that show how to add SD CARD to MI8.
I personally have not used this technology (insert Hybrid Sim Slot) because I do not need to add SD CARD.
Next, read a post before you respond.
Anyway, have a nice day.

The issue that you dont understand is that the Xiaomi Mi 8 only have dual sim reader only, meaning the pins inside will never align to read a sdcard, a google search as you pointed out using the adapter you mention its onlt for phones that alow a sim + sim or SDcard, meaning that inside the simcard reader of the hybrid slot there are aditional pins to read a sim or a sdcard and the adapter allow you to insert the sdcard and pigtail the sim.
Again this is only possible on devices that utilize a Hybrid slot wich Xiaomi Mi 8 does not have, maybe other variants of the Mi8 like the Mi8 Pro or Mi8 Lite have that option but the Mi8 itself does not.
As you can see from GSM arena specs comparasion, the Mi8 DOES NOT support sdcard, however the Mi8 Lite does has it has hybrid sim slot. but again the person that posted the question asked about a Mi8 not Mi8 Lite

Thank you for the detailed explanation.
You may be right, but what bothered me was your comment that I was "spreading false information" so I reacted as I did before.
I emphasized that I had not tried the "Hybrid Sim Slot" on my MI8 device.
