Hello all!

Just had a few questions regarding the Dual Sim version of the Galaxy S4 Mini. I just ordered one to use as my travel phone using both my local US tmobile sim and a local sim at my destination. I was curious about some of the compatibilities of this phone with some of the other Galaxy S4s.

Particularly:

Is it possible to port over tmobile wifi calling to work on this phone from say the main Galaxy S4 from Tmobile?
Would I be able to install custom roms from the single sim Galaxy S4 mini?

Thanks very much for the help in advance

No you can't use single sim rom on dual.

Hello! :)

In Dual SIM model, you can define which SIM you want to use to make calls, send messages or whatever... you can define one main SIM or choose SIM when you make the call.

And about custom roms:
There are official CyanogenMod ROM to both single SIM model (GT-I9190 or GT-I9195), but don't have any custom ROM to Dual SIM. :(

I hope I've helped you.

If i were you and using only one sim most of the time I'll get a 9190 or 9195 and a single cheap small phome while I travel,

I've flash in 9192 cm from 9190 and 9195 both work but didn't recognize the sim i think flashing stock from other variants would be the same

Hi,

I am gonna buy a new dual sim soon and I am very undecided between this one and the HTC one dual sim

I am thinking about these two because they should be ones of the most used dual sim smartphones, giving me more hope to get updates in the future

The GT-i9192 doesnt have LTE (which consumes a lot of battery btw) and NFC, but it does have a removable battery and costs much less

Reading around I got to know this Knox stuff.. since I live in Europe I read the warranty problem shouldnt matter..

However it looks like the Knox may interfeere whenever you want to flash some newer custom android version.. is it true? I mean, if it is just a matter of displaying an alert I dont care but if I cant install a newer rom than I would get pissed off
