using dual SIM cards is a mess. I used:
SIM1: Home SIM (GSM...)
SIM2: Visiting country SIM (with internet WCDMA)

SIM2: Internet worked, wasn't able to place a call and outgoing SMS probably got lost
SIM1: Could not receive SMS, loads of errors when trying to send SMS

I don't know whether this is a mobile network issue, but I moved one of the sims on a different phone and I received a batch of SMSs that never got delivered. I believe the whole "duo" sim stack is messed up

              My main contract is with 3UK so want to use for mobile Internet (4g if available), calls and texts.

              Got an old second sim that all I want to do is receive calls and texts on.

              Is this possible on this phone??

                Wondering if it is possible to turn one sim off. I have a personal sim and a business sim and really don't want calls from clients at 3am. Have to leave personal sim on, because I need to be contactable 24/7 by employer - just not the clients!

                Thanks

                    Marzia (CutiePie), 06 Jan 2015Hello I just want to know, how long does it's battery last? Please reply. Thank you very much.Hi Maria,
                    I think its battery is pretty good... specially the standby time which can last around 5~7 days approx (i.e. if its just on standby) :)

                          K2blitz, 05 Jan 2015Does both SIM cards operate on 4G or 4G/3G?Both sim cards can operate on 4G or LTE but NOT at the same time. You need to choose which sim to connect to LTE and the other at GSM only.
