If you want to use lte on the smart sim you can change it via sim card manager in the settings menu. Note: you can't use lte on both sim cards at the same time, one sim will automatically go to 2g.

It will always look for the globe sim since it is locked to this network. Wait for your plan to mature, globe will be the one to "open" the line for you. That's my issue before, the technician explained it to me. Also i think it is not safe to have it "open-line" with technicians as they need to root the phone. I spoke with a cp technician and he said it is not advisable. Not sure if Rsim will work.

Hi, question to Philippines users of note 5. My phone is globe locked but i was also able to use my smart sim with it. However, I cannot use my data from smart and it shows 2g only. I cannot use the smart sim by itself or change the sim tray because it is displays invalid sim card. Looks like it searches for the globe sim first. I want to use my smart data plan instead. Pls help. Thanks.

I am glad I bought Note5. In the past 6 years I had used S2, S4, Note2. I loved N2 a lot but it lags. I wanted to get Note4(bcoz I have lotsa photos and music on MicroSD fron N2) but decided to buy Note5 bcoz it has better camera and nicer design. After 1 month of using Note5 (firmware N9208XXU2PE2, May2016), I donÂ’t miss the MicroSD card anymore. I put my files on USB flash drive and connect to OTG. Before I go travelling, I move photos from internal N5 to a flashdrive OTG. Its camera is very clear and fast. The battery seemed to last 14 hours with facebook, browser & social messaging, on Wifi. When I travel, I use Google Map & Navigation and shooting photos (without flash) and is on mobile broadband. So its battery only lasted about 5-6hours (Note2 lasted 7-8hours). So I have to bring along my powerbank (with fastcharge) to charge when I am in the car. So far, no lag for all the apps I needed for my daily use. I am very satisfied with its size too. N2 was too thick and feels big. It does get hot when I do gaming or GPS stuffs but that is normal and happened to many phones I used.

From your device just dial.
*#272*IMEI#
To get your IMEI just key in *#06#, you'll see 2 IMEI's if you have a dual sim like my Note5, just key in the first one and it should come up with the list of operators that you can use for your phone.
Downside is that I had to backup everything because it reinstalls the OS. You can use Samsung smart switch to do that.
I hope this helps.
