I've been using the thin cable adaptor to run both SIM cards and a microsd all at he same time . Someone recently said they are trying to call my second sim number and he gets a phone switched off message from operator...

I thought the cable because dislodged but no matter what I try I can't get the second sim to enable itself , I even swapped the film cable adaptor with a new one..same issue ..

I recently phrases to pie and I'm loving it but I have feeling a sneaky patch blocked this hack ..which ..if true...is monkeytitstupid !

Any thoughts ?

Samsung did patch that on pie.

Only two ways that I read.

1. Go back to oreo
Or
2. Root phone (something like to replace service.jar file or using magisk, so search xda)

I think is something more serious. I'm using an adapter as well. Upon start up I get a notification that something is in simcard tray. And that notification doesn't go away and it doesn't let me use the phone at all until I removed the adapter.

If you are not seeing that message, the adapter probably isn't working.

I resorted to custom rom samsung pie where the developer removed that restriction.as a result my spay is dead, my secure folders is dead.

For me it's worth losing these function to gain access to dual sim and sdcard. I do miss secure folders though.. There is third party apps that can do the trick but not as good as secure folders.

So weigh the importance of knox related items to dual sim and sdcard. I did and decided my need for dualsim and sdcard is more than secure folders.

Btw, the developer patched shealth so shealth still works on mine. I'm using dr ketans rom.

Hi, I have the same problem. But this time I never rooted my phone as NFC payment apps detect it and I would not be able to use that function anymore.

For the moment I have just put some clear tape on the second SIM and can use my phone, access my memory and hope that a proper solution will be found soon.
For the moment I use my second(same as first one which is taped now) SIM. And use my pocket phone. 5x5x1cm for 25€.
And will wait for some new clever workaround or my ordered NFC payment ring and root.

By the way, the chip of my sim was glued on the back of the sd card. So I am sure it has nothing to do with the adapter.

After updating to PIE, i'm note able to use hybrid sim slot on my Galaxy Note 8. When i insert hybrid in Galaxy note 8 Pie, POPUP appears says sim card tray slot problem, but phone has read both behind and memory card. Pop does not get disable and stuck on the screen. Forcefully i need to remove the slot and reverse back to 1 sim and MC
