    How can we go to sim setting when the problem is the device being unable to read/detect sim? Setting is not available for sim if the device doesn't detect sim in first place. My problem is my device sim slot is working and so is my sim but the device doesn't detect the sim, idk why but i don't think anyone would have solution for this

    I don't know if it's normal or not but when I put one sim in the second port, the mobile doesn't recognize either of the two SIM cards I put in but when both SIM cards are in they are both recognized. But in the first port, whatever SIM card I insert is recognized by the mobile phone, that is, only in the second port if I insert only one card, none is recognized.

It works now, but is spotty... I manually typed in the APNs, called it s bag of bitches, cleaned the sim port with pointy q tips with 99 iso alcohol and air, and went dow. To t mobile to get a new sim card. Also ordered a dual sim card tray offline.. Even tho t mobile version only supports one sim, it has the fingers on both sides so its capable of using either side. Now my phone works great again! Not sure exactly what worked, but since we have same phone pretty much, hopefully i steered you in the right direction.

    This video and others like it are a clear and perfect example why the multiple versions of Android in the wild with the multitude of variations of settings create a nightmare for users and support providers.
