Hi Guys,.

Is there such an app that would allow me to swap out my work sim to my own sim on an evening.

I.e. I would like an app that detects what operator sim I am using and automatically choose the correct profile for gprs, mms and sms.

Using Voda for work and O2 payg for personal.

a plugin would be nice that just swaps the operator setiings over.

I am not over bothered about having a dual sim as changing it over manually is easy enough. Just want an easy way to swap the connection settings over.

Just a footnote I recently re flashed to latest T-Mobile rom and needed to run an app that required Compact framework 2.0. It ran like a bag of Sh**e. Dropped back to the o2 rom and everything cool and groovy.

Answer my prayers brothers of the mobil revolution

:-) :D

You are looking for a combination of a dual-SIM adapter and the Wivit SSS software.
The Dual SIM adapter holds two sims. The active SIM can be switched by switching off & on the GSM radio (or by going into and out of flight mode).
Just for this purpose SSS (see wivit.com) was developed. It lets you switch sims and show (on today) the active sim (by its phone number).

One thing: SSS is currently not reliable om WM5 (I have used it for more than a year on my Himalaya and am very confident.

Had a quick play with this, however it only changes the operator. I need something that will auto detect the correct operator settings for GPRS MMS etc.

Not really bothered about running the 2 sims at the same time. ]

dw1991: to tell you the truth, the easiest way is just to carry a .cab file with the settings for each operator. One click and it's installed.
I keep one for Orange PAYG, one for O2 contract. I know you don't need it, but I use a cut dual sim on my Magician and never had any problems with this solution.

An autodetecting system could be written, but it'd be over-egging it a bit compared to 2 shortcuts to the .cabs, in a folder on your start menu.

Last year I discussed this with the Wivit guys. They planned switching active GPRS network settings linked to SIM switching in some next version of their SSS. Nother was released however since their first 1.0 build. (also i havent seen these guys on this forum for a long time). Pity

I tried this solution also. Howeve when I double click the cab file on the device it dissappears. Do I have to copy these file across every time |I sync

This cab has some regedits in it that will prevent the .cab files from being deleted after you execute them.

making the CAB's readponly beforehand also solves this!

Hi, vijay555!

I also use 2 SIM cards from different operators in my Excalibur / Dash / HTC S621 and I want to me cabs for changing the connection settings (gprs/mms/wap) more easily.

Can you help me doing that? I use brasilian operators VIVO and Claro (if you find easier making the cabs than explaining how to I can post the settings latter on :D)

BTW, I use one of the latest Ricky/Kavana 6.1 ROM.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers!
