Guest cybercamel Posted May 4, 2003 Report Share Posted May 4, 2003 Is there, or will there be, such a thing as a double simcard holder for the SPV? And if there is, will the phone be clever enough to receive calls from 2 different networks without using a switch? Or perhaps I should have put this into the wishlist section! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fozzie Posted May 4, 2003 Report Share Posted May 4, 2003 Is there, or will there be, such a thing as a double simcard holder for the SPV?Not at the moment, but it's not an impossible task (for a manufacturer). It would mean either the battery housing being made bigger or losing some capacity from the existing battery. And if there is, will the phone be clever enough to receive calls from 2 different networks without using a switch? This could never happen for many reasons. I'l leave that for someone else to expand on - it's Sunday morning and sunny outside and I really don't want to be stuck in front of this thing all day....again! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SPV has only the one, which means you have to flick from one network ID to the other if you want to change sims... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest princegary Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 I have a dual simcard holder in my SPV at the moment. It's basically the same size as a normal sim but works well. just like any other you just power down then power up to swap between simcards.

Guest eyup Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 hi, did see those dual sim adaptors on ebay but was wary of cutting my sims up! how much you pay for it if you dont mind me asking? Guess it was straight forward to cut sims up? Hope i thinking of right thing ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 The only problem with cutting up the SIM is that it does not belong to you. They belong to the network and they have the right to request it back, even though it's unlikely to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest princegary Posted November 21, 2003 Report Share Posted November 21, 2003 Yeah you do cut up the sim but it's very easy to do. the packet has these little stickers which basically stick onto the sim and you use scissors to cut them out which is just a 2 minute job. It also has templates so that if you decide you wanna use the sim back then you just place them into the 2 holders they supply and it will fit and work as normal so no worries really. Good thing is that a friend sells them in his phone shop so I got mine for £10 which I think is a great price. Admittedly I was weary about chopping the sims too but it works great. Works in my SPV and new E200 without any probs :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hotdude69x Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 Really interested in the dual sim card holder. Where do I get them? I have search thru ebay & can't get any for my spv e100. Please help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zeta101 Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 just search for dual sim card holder, they are not phone specific they work on any phone, so dont put the spv e100 search term in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mcwarre Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 Hotdude, Look here quite a good price as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kalinte Posted January 30, 2004 Report Share Posted January 30, 2004 maybe you can try this out. its made by Pinoy. it's basically a dual sim holder just like the ones available for "nok" phones. if you want the details and more pics, drop by the pinoy thread of the same topic. (p.s. you use the airplane mode to switch sim)dualsimside[1].jpgdualsim1[1].jpgaut_1925[1].jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mcwarre Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 This was made by one of our pinoy (Phillipino) members mlkanapi. I have a triple SIM in my MPx200 here :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
