your post is very ambiguous. are you asking how to get dual sim working on a specific ROM youre running?

I don't know what he is asking but I know a hardware hack to get dual SIM and SD at the same time. Pretty interesting

i believe he is talking about the phones with dual trays such as the S9. All of the phones with dual trays built into the chassis are physically able to accept a dual sim tray, just not all mobos have been set up to utilize a dual sim setup. The G960F and G960FD are the same phone, the D just stand for dual sim. AFAIK, nobody has done a tear down on a FD vs a F to determine if any hardware differences exist. Completely unrelated side note, its really hard to type when a kitty is pressing its head against your hands LOL!!

Lol. I believe the s8 models f and fd are compatible. Just needs the firmware and a IMEI tweak. I'm pretty sure the hardware is there. I'm actually been looking I to it on my 9650 as it has the hybrid tray. Im pretty sure it works. Just no IMEI attached to slot 2. I see guys somehow slapped slot one Imei onto slot 2 so just matching IMEI on both slots.

see, now would that fall under imei cloning? Is it problematic to "clone" your own IMEI within the very same device? If its all good, then id like to see it discussed a lot more. Im going to Romania in a few months and would love to have FD working on my G960U. I thought you had a 9550 not a 9650

Imo it wouldn't since it's same device same IMEI. Only issue is the s8 and up IMEI are written with cert files. So you would need more than likely a paid service.
