Hi guys, the Samsung S5 Duos SMG900FD in middle east (Oman & UAE), it's dual standby not a dual active , I bought one and I tested it, the concept here is the phone diverts the calls from Sim1 to Sim2 and vice versa , if you want to check that , go to settings and check for the divert calls for both sims , you will see that.
So if your operator charges the calls on divert , when you are on Sim1 talking and received a call on Sim2 and answered it , the Sim2 will be charged, please check the credit on both sims.
In Oman, Omantel & Nawras they charge your Sim for diverting a call.
In UAE Etisalat & du they charge the divert call to other operator but not on same operator Sims.
So SMG900FD is a dual standby not dual active.

    Anonymous, 26 Oct 2014Is it possible on this phone that by using one sim we can receive the call on other. Yes it is.
    I can receive calls in one SIM even the other SIM is in use for 4G internet.

                              Tcool, 22 Oct 2014The charging port itself is the OTG slot.Wrong. In the bottom of the phone, under the charging cover, they are 2 port's: 1 charging and the 2nd OTG.

                                  I am looking into buy Galaxy S5 DuoS (model G900FD)from Kogan. Anyone from Australia using this phone? I would like to hear from you:
                                  1) how the two SIMs work with Australian networks?
                                  2) how the camera is functioning?
                                  Many thanks.
