Hi all,
I have the dual sim S7 SM-G935FD running the XSP firmware. Rooted with the microSD Mod on Sim 2. It's being used in the USA at the moment. Sim 1 is AT&T and Sim 2 is T-Mobile. Both are USA sim cards. Everything goes through Sim 1 AT&T - Voice, Text and Data. Sim 2 is just for receiving calls only. Sim 1 is set at LTE/3G/2G and Sim 2 is 2G only.
Since day one I have this connectivity issue pertaining to data connection.
When Sim 2 gets a weak signal and eventually drops out, data connection on Sim 1 remains - everything works. However, when Sim 2 is picking up signal again, the data connection on Sim 1 drops out.
When this happens, the pull down notification will display that the data connection is on Sim 2 - as if the phone switches the data connection from Sim 1 to Sim 2 by itself. However, if I go to the Sim Manager, it will show that the data connection is still on Sim 1 like it originally was. At this point, the phone has no data. And yes, the phone is displaying conflicting information. Notification says Data is on Sim 2 but Sim Manager says Data is on Sim 1.
To fix this, I have to use the Sim Manager, select Sim 2 for Data. Wait a few minutes. Then, choose Sim 1 for Data again, then everything comes back normal. Data connects.
This is quite annoying in a poor reception area.
Troubleshooting steps that I have tried but they do not fix the problem-
Flash stock firmware no root
Use a different stock firmware - XEU
2 sim cards only with no microSD card on the back of Sim 2
Choose 3G/2G only for Sim 1 and 2G for Sim 2
Swapping Sim 1 and Sim 2
If I disable Sim 2 the problem goes away, but of course, what's the point of dual sim then?
I also have a S6 Edge+ Duos SM-G9287 but it does not have this problem.
Any ideas? Thanks.
