XT1064 with dual-SIM reader, XT1068 ROM possible? - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The SIM card reader in my XT1064 was busted, so I replaced it with a dual-SIM one for the XT1068 and made the cut into the back shell so that it would fit and could be accessed. Mechanically, perfect.
First SIM is working perfectly, but second SIM is not recognized. I assume this is purely because the XT1064 ROM doesn't support it. IOW, a software-only limitation.
Has anybody run an XT1064 with an XT1068 ROM and can confirm it working/not working? Is there any other way to add dual-SIM support?
XT1064 with stock 5.0.2, rooted.

Nope, also only sees the first, and doesn't offer SIM settings for the second.
The XT1068 stock ROM had dual-SIM settings but none of them work.
XT1068 stock ROM with modem from XT1064 ROM still has dual-SIM settings and the first one works but the second one is disabled and greyed out, so cannot be enabled.
Perhaps something is missing in the XT1064 hardware.

Risky business... But shouldn't you need the xt1068 modem?

Theoretically, yes, but the XT1068 modem doesn't see/detect/enable the SIM cards. Something else besides the reader must be different.
Well, it was worth a try. I am now back to XT1064 stock with a single SIM card and a second but useless slot.

[q] moto g 2nd gen (xt1068) no sim slot working

Recently my phone Moto G 2nd Gen (XT1068) was stuck on start up and didin't boot further. So I decided to unlock my boot loader and installed a different rom from other party as the Motorola website wasn't working. Now after flashing the new rom my sim card slots aren't working while everything is working fine . I downloaded another rom from another website and flashed it again (not the motorola official website) and still the sim slots aren't working. Nothing is shown up when the sim is inserted (yes this sim works on other phones) . What should I do now?

[Q] Moto G 2014 XT1063 doesn't recognize SIM

Global GSM XT1063 MSM8626BP_1032.394.88.00R
Kernel 3.4.42-g668a77b
System 23.11.23.titan_retuglb.en.US retus
Android Kitkat 4.4.4
Hi guys,
I've bought in dec14 this device on Amazon from Motorola Solutions with Global version.
I've booted it just now because my friends delivered it in Ukraine.
Right after starting device it does not recognize local operators SIM cards. I've tried sim cards from different operators but the result was the same. I use micro sim cards, inserting it according to instructions (contacts face to battery).
Has anyone had similar issues with europe operators? Is there any solution? Or is it factory defect?
Thanks in advance.

Do you have GSM carrier? If you have GSM - just do this
P.S. I`m on GSM with 1056 and have another issues with CM11-based ROMs - "Roaming indicator flashing"

Hello,
I think this is not my solution, because my handset is already unlocked and detecting my sim card, also cyanogen lollipop is detecting my sim card, official rom was detecting my sim card.

Hm... Did you try to change network type? It helps me, but still have grey indicator on statusbar and "roaming flashing"... Network works - I can call, but I can`t send SMS / MMS... (
Thats why I go back to the stock...

what version is xt1063

I've gotten my hand on a Moto G 2nd Generation. Sorry I've exhausted the search engine on trying to find out what country this moto g is for. The model on the back says XT1063. It is only single sim. does not have any network branding on it. In the system information, it says Moto G (2nd generation) I've tried ATT sim, Tmobile Sim, Verizon Sim, and even bought an unlock code, but noway for me to enter the code. My only guess now is that this version is already unlocked, but for another country(india???) Does anyone know how to get to the menu to enter the unlock screen if this is indeed the global (compatible with US). The tutorials I saw just shows putting in a sim from another network and it shows the unlock code screen.
and if it is indeed a different country, may I ask which one so I can somehow try to sell it.
Thanks XDA.
in my experience i restored to stock using the tools provided in the developers section, after this my radio was not working (im from mexico) and my guess is because the radio i flashed is from US, later i restore to stock again but with radio from Mexico and got my sim working that way.
So what i trying to say is: why dont you try flashing to stock using radio for you're country, than try using the sim.
i used this

btw. i own XT1063 also.

Convert single sim (xt1063) to dual sim (xt 1068), need help

Hello, here's the thing, I have a Moto g xt1063 (single sim) and wish to convert it to dual sim. I bought dual sim adapter and installed in my phone. My phone is running latest android version (Marshmallow) but the second sim doesn't work as it is original single sim software. My question is, what to do, what to flash into my phone to enable dual sim function.
Thanks
