I just got the Tilt and have unlocked it but I had to use my spare Roger's Sim Card for the Tilt to recognize the sim card. The Tilt doesn't recognize the T-Mobile sim card when I insert it. On my other phones it will read it. The sim card is about 3 years old, not sure if the Tilt only accepts larger size sim cards or what. Is there any way to fix this?

How did you unlock it?
It's not necessarily larger sim cards, but 3G sim cards if you need to use 3G. But it shouldn't affect your voice signal.
I inserted a different Sim card other than AT&T, asked for the unlock code and I entered it. Unlock was sucessfull but only with the Roger's sim card, I use that when I travel to Canada. My primary carrier is T-mobile, anytime I insert the T-mobile sim, the tilt says the sim card is missing. I thought there was something wrong with the actual sim card but I just placed them in my K800i and w810 phone and saw the sim card with no problem. I don't care for 3g since T-mobile doesn't support it yet.

Did you try to go into network under the phone settings, and select automatic?
It is set to automatic, the problem is that the Tilt believes there is no sim in the slot when the sim card is in the slot.
if the sim is 3 years old it maybe the sim is actually too old for newer devices
we have found this with some devices with some vodafone devices.
I work on all mobiles (In the US) for a living and due to the old SIM revision, it is too old to be recognized in newer devices software. If you go to the T-Mobile store and buy a new SIM for $15 they will move your service to the new SIM and the Tilt will read it.
Hi,
I have a dual sim chinese edition P7.
I went to change the main (3G) sim card today and the sim slot has become inactve.
It won't register any sim card. The second (2G) slot still works fine.
Any idea how to fix the sim tray?
I've got my phone setup with a Fido (Canada) data SIM and MTN (Nigeria) SIM for roaming in the second slot. I am using a sim adapter so a 128gb Samsung memory card is also hooked in. For some reason the MTN roaming SIM will not receive calls, most callers to that SIM card are told the number isn't available. However, if I switch off the second data SIM, the First SIM will then be able to receive calls without any problems. I've taken out the sim adapter and memory card, but this still persists.
Has anyone experienced this before or know a way to fix this?

So the phone is not a dual-SIM phone, it is only with the "adapter"?
It is a dual SIM phone alright. These hybrid dual SIM can either take two SIM cards or one SIM card and a memory card. If you want all 3, then you need to use an adapter to achieve that.
I'd like to know how the dual sim functions works. Is it possible to recieve calls on both sim cards and can you choose which sim to use mobile data on?
My S20 Ultra LTE dual sim keeps detecting a SIM in the second SIM slot which is making the phone lose service. Is there a way to disable the SIM slot permanently or convert the phone through the firmware to single SIM. PLEASE HELP!!!!!
