right now i'm giving my phone a second full charge, when it's finished, i'll post the photo's of the speed test and the released date. From the box, my i9192 is a version sold in saudi arabia.

update:

The usim data card is rated at 14.4m max speed, the same card used in the i9192, note 2, USB data stick and mifi all get approximate 5-8m.

2 usim in phone with data enabled in slot 1

2 usim in phone with data enabled in slot 2

1 usim in phone slot 1 with data enabled

1 usim in phone slot 2 with data enabled

Can you consider to add a screenshot of the about section of your phone ?

Because I made the test yesterday again and once again impossible for me to reach more than 1,4Mb/s with 2 sim and data on slot 2
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] kms108:
What do you mean by sections.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Kiwyxda:
In settings --> More --> About device --> scroll down and screen shot those insfo ;)

if you don't mind :)

Yes some time I wish to go back in the past and get the GT-I9190 model
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] SysAdmNj:
So with both sims in, obviously slot one will be the provider you want your 3g speeds with, but what about texts. Can you receive texts from both sims phone number? And if so, what happens when you reply to either or both? Will it handle the sim's phone number reply to text appropriately? I think this is my main concern before buying a dual sim card phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] kms108:
with text, you just do the same precedure as you do wit a single sim card phone, but you get the option of two send out icons buttons sim 1 and sim 2, you can also receivee text msg with either sim, these will be labelled with a sim 1 and sim 2 icon.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] SysAdmNj:
So you can receive texts on both sims at the same time? I'm just wondering if there are two folders? How do you distinguish which text belongs to which sims?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] SilviuMik:
When u open a text message u will see icon from what sim it came from :)

I did answer u in other topic with screens, take a look there
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] SysAdmNj:
There is no way then to get 3g data speeds on both sims at the same time? Sim slot 1 takes the 3g precedence?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] fburgos:
that's because it has only one modem but you get to choose which sim uses data plan on 3G (sim1 or sim2 both can work with 3G)

on the other hand why would you want 3g on both sims at the same time, that would only give less battery life not doble speed
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] SysAdmNj:
I understand that, but for me when I chose my sim2 to use the data plan it only stays on 'E' which is edge speeds which is equivalent of gprs I believe. Its real slow, instead of taking advantage of sim2's highest possible data speed which I know is faster than my sim1. But if it has one modem and can only use 3g on one sim card why doesnt it use it on the sim card I choose to use the data plan on. Obviously I'd want the faster speeds for data no? :)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] fburgos:
you have to manually change network mode from sim1 to 2g (gsm) and sim2 to 3g (wcdma) is a shame the rom don't do it automatically.

but for me works that way, since y have one big data plan and one small I just change the sim I use for data to toggle 3g/2g depending if I want longer battery life or faster internet

Hi

I needed an urgent help.! Does the performance of a dual sim phone, when used only with a single sim matches the performance of a single sim model?

This is in relation to buying a i9190 vs i9192.

I am not a dual sim user but am unable to get a i9190 online.

Please help..!

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Wildfear:
If you don't use dual sim, single sim version is way better for almost everything as network efficiency and custom ROMS.

Beside those points, i9192 is still a good device ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] fburgos:
Get i9190 they have custom rom
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] gladson1976:
I am currently using the I9192 with a single sim and haven't noticed any performance lags. It works just fine.

He said, he is not able to get a I9190 (same as me. not available in my country). That is why he is getting a I9192.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] onesolo:
I have a doubt.

If you for example, are using data from sim1, can you be able to receive calls from sim2 ?? And the same on the other way, data on sim2 and a call from sim1 ??

Is there a european rom for this model?? I can only see asian, middle east or african roms..
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] fburgos:
you can receive calls on any sim while watching youtube, downloads, etc..

the only way you cant receive calls in one sim is while you're on a call on the other one, but there is a work around for that.

Questions I have about 9291

1.OK I can't find anything about using this with T-mobile's wifi Wi-Fi calling here in the USA any help plus Links would be a huge plus and thanks...

2.Does or can it tether data from either of it's sim slots? I only plan on using data from 1 slot and calls and text from the other anyway.

3. I don't mind voiding my warranty but I do want to be able to use the all the features I bought the phone for so why no custom roms and will there never be a Samsung kitkat update on this device?

4. Custom rom wise, I always really Like Paranoid or PacMan roms. Any Link for those Thanks.....

Have you checked this review? It seems like the Dous version is tweaked.

blog.gsmarena.com/samsung-galaxy-s4-mini-duos-battery-tests-are-done-here-are-the-results/

For me choosing the Samsung S4 Mini Duos was a non-brainer. Yes, its not the best option in terms of performance of a Dual SIM phone and the switch btw SIM 1 and 2 for data is horrible omission from Samsung. I guess we sont see any hope for update on this as is is mid-2013 device, now 1 year old and still running 4.2 Jelly Bean and no word on update to 4.3 or 4.4. I don't care about flashing this or Know warranty, but its just most likely stock version will not work with this Dual SIM give how its screwed up everything with the speed limits in 2nd SIM.

Can somebody confirm who did upgrade this phone successfully to 4.3 or to 4.4 KitKat?

Anyways the reason i picked this phone was 1. The built quality (nice hardware), 2. forward looking specs and 3. (This is major) was the weight of this phone - its mere 108 or 109 grams which is featherlight compared to any other Dual SIM phone on the market including the bulky cheap counterparts from subcontract manufacturers in China.

Here is a listing and review. I cant speak for the review, but it is a good list. Its in German unfortunately.

dualsim-handytest.de

As i said, cant speak for the review or whether its biased or not. I just looked at the specs of the phones and Galaxy mini stands out on weight, although overall is listed as being in the middle.

---------- Post added at 02:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:21 PM ----------

I am avid Apple user but for my family i always setup on Linux in the past and now also on ChromeOs and Android, just because its cheaper :p

Being accustomed to Keep-it-simple-stupid simplicity of an Apple phone, I do appreciate the sheer number of customization options including ability to have DUAL Sim, but most of the settings are convoluted in confusing illogical layout on the Samsung phone and I ended up reading online user manuals. I agree there is a lot of S-bloatware and its annoying there is no way to turn off some stuff unless I root the phone. Hardware-wise, Samsung is really only hardware manufacturer that comes close to Apple quality on phones. Given how Samsung wants to push Tizen, its unlikely they will loosen grip on your phone, in contrary they want to become more like Apple so they can make more money out of you:laugh:

Thanks for putting this review together.. Without this i was lost as there is absolutely no documentation on how this feature works anywhere online and Samsung help online just repeats the same thing I can read on the phone's display.

Try cynogenmod 11 kitkat 4.4.4 by sekil
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] ADR USR:
Honestly, I do not recommend any s4 mini.

Usage time: seven days

estimated lifespan for battery: less than a year.

Model: 9192 Duos

mainly because there is no definitive solution to the battery problem, heating, etc.

all the bad reports happen in Stock or custom rom.

And they happen randomly. Makes the solution difficult.

I think in trying to return the model. Probably will not get lucky.

Wrong in purchasing. could be a good smart but unfortunately buggy

Samsung does not recall. Never.

After years using Samsung, think it's time to change.

Should have bought a MOTO X.

EDIT :

After many tests I finally got:

My battery graph finally shows horizontal lines and no more that constant downward curve even in deep sleep.

I'm still with him totally stock.

Drain into deep sleep only ended after disabling SIM 2 in setup.

I'll probably have to change sim 2 (which was cut).

Note the horizontal line when Deepsleep.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] rrgrrg:
i was just wondering can i use 3g (or data generally)on sim 2 slot when there is no sim 1 ?? ... as the sim 2 place may get a better signal since its not between the screen and the battery as in sim 1 slot ... ??...because i tried using only sim 2 slot but when i switch data on nothing happens ... also i put sim 2 for data in sim manger :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] aguaz:
there is a thing called antenna
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] fburgos:
The signal does not work that way, is the antenna where the signal came in to the phone not the sim.

I can use 3g full speed in second slot.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] pmarseille:
Hello,

New guy here, have been reading since a long time...

I'm looking for a dual Sim phone but it need to be dual 3G...

My 2 carriers are 3g only, no 2g support at all...

So my question is: can 3g be activated on both Sims at the same time?

Thank you
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] SilviuMik:
Unfortunately, no . Only 1 SIM can be 3G at a time

[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Nitrous828:
Will be an s4 mini owner

I recently upgraded from a note2 to a note4, but I now have 2 lines, and 2 note phones are bulcky to carrying arround. So i want a small phone to carry around with my note4 to replace the note 2.

Since I already have all the functionality and storage i need on my note4, so the size and weight of the second phone is key! obviously call time is also important since i will only be useing if for calls and some sms, but with one sim only.

The second sim slot would be a perfect solution for times where i dont wanna carry 2 phones around, and keep my note4 at home, so i will only use it temporarily, which makes the s4 mini the perfect candidate for my case.

I know s5 mini is out, but more expensive, and has a lot of features i dont need on a second phone, and will suck up more battery life.

Great reviews and posts guys! Keep it up!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] adr272:
Dear all, i am interested in buying a mobile phone which has the possibility kf doing the following setup:

Be able to use 2 sim cards (HSDPA 900MHZ-2100MHZ). One sim card will be used only for voice calls and sms. The other sim card will be used only for data (internet). If possible i would like that the data sim card is always on in order to receive facebook notifications, email etc. However if a call on the second sim card is received, i will be able to get the call.

Help is greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] as.ashish:
I am facing an issue where I don't receive sms on second sim if the data is active on sim1.

Basically, I have sim1 & sim2. For data I use sim1. But, I stop receiving sms of sim2 when data is active on sim2. Any particular reason?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
I have jena (NFC) model and as many other people I had mount problems with CM11 and CWM6.0.4.5. Specifically, internal sdcard could not be mounted.

So I decided to do the following:

I modified theWhisp's CM11 and CWM 6.0.4.5 builds and also Erikcas's OmniRom and AOKP builds and made them so internal storage is not mounted at all (as it could not be mounted either way) and external storage is mounted in sdcard0.

Of course I take no credits. All credits go to theWhisp and Erikcas for their hard work.

How to flash:

taken from theWhisp's thread:

I will keep modifying and uploading latest CM11 build until a fix for internal is found.

So, enjoy CM11 (and have a great new year :p)

Whatever works in theWhip's latest build works here too. This is the same build, only modified to mount external in sdcard0.

I will make one with swapped storages, but I cannot test, as my internal won't mount.

Also I will make it in about two days as I'm busy..

TheWhisp said he'll release a new build later today, working with previous versions of cwm and with switch storages option.

Do there is anyway to pull pit file from stock ROM or from phone as thewhisp said in previous posts
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] rhisendark:
I'll test and get back to you.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
There is a way, I did, but nothing changed.

[MENTION=4851925]rhisendark[/MENTION] test this. THIS IS FOR SWAPPED STORAGES!

https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B6BfBomy6yS1NmNHVmxlbmd2NU0&usp=sharing

First flash cm, then framework, and then reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
I modified latest build to use only external storage. Is anyone using this mod anyway? Because if nobody does, there is no reason to upload.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] rhisendark:
I flashed it. currently at cyanogenmod logo. I suppose it stuck.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
This has to do with the framework-res.

Just read first post and follow EXACTLY those steps..
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] rhisendark:
oh. I wiped data. now trying without wiping anything. will get back to you once its done.

edit: ahaaha :D just installing rom worked. internal storage and usb now changed places. :)

Memory swap now works, but I'm unable to use external sd... Coming back to 1st release :/
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
Good to know it worked. No need flashing framework-res?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
The build I uploaded was only intented for rhisendark, as he needed swapped storages. It won't fix mounting of internal.

Those who have problems with internal can either use first release, or wait as I intent to upload theWhisp's 03/01/2014 cm11 build modified to use only external storage.

I got white screen.. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bseos:
You're the man, bleached!

Thank you so much.

Now my only issue is the white screen. I will have to keep my phone from locking until it's ever fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bseos:
Does this look right?

Click to expand

I flashed with "no internal" and now filemanager shows that sdcard0 points to the external sd card (~4GB). :good:

Before sdcard0 would never mount.

But why does storage report internal is under 1GB like in the screenshot??

EDIT: I have flashed both "no internal" and "swap" but my internal drive size is always under 1GB :(
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
This looks ok!

The one you see that is under 1GB is the /data partition. Normally you have no access to it (unless you are rooted), and it is a different partition than the internal SD.

All in all, everything looks as it is supposed to look.

When you install an app, most of the time it will be intsalled in this /data partition I told you (the one that is 0.90 GB in size). No matter how much size your external sd card is, apps will install in this 0.90 GB space.

You could move apps to external sd, if it is supported by the app.

The external sd card is primarily used to store your files (music, images, documents etc).
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bseos:
Thanks for clarifying mate.

I haven't had a mobile smartphone for the past couple years so this jump to android from my last phone (Motorola v360) was rather drastic and i apologise if my questions sound rather "noob"

i use this rom (no internal) and update-framework-res-20140111.zip now my mini 2 works fine

what is the exactly meaning of update-framework-res-20140111.zip ???
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
I edit storage-strings.xml which is in framework-res.apk file. So update-framework-res.zip contains the modified framework-res.apk.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] xan.scale:
ok, why? what is the difference?if I do not use what changes?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
Last time I tried practically nothing. Only change was in Settings>storage. I believe some entries were different. (Like giving option to unmount SD card) but that was some time ago and now I'm waiting for a new build from theWhisp to test again. I was thinking about removing framework-res.zip completely, as it seems to confuse users.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
It's been a while since last build from theWhisp, and it is ok, as he might not have time, or the changes were only minor. Anyway, I decided today to build CM-11 from source (using the sources found at theWhisp's github). That means that later today I might upload a new build, that will not have framework-res.zip, as it will not be necessary. It will have latest CM11 changes (that means that problem with call-ui being slow will probably be fixed) and any other changes (if any) theWhisp has pushed to github.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
New Build uploaded. See above post for more details.

EDIT: for gapps see here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2397942

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] hack91:
your latest build it's based to the latest nightly build (11-1-2014) released by TheWisp ? now I have your latest no-internal 11-1-2014 build :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
Please read the post above my last post. I stated that the new build is a build I build using theWhisp's github. This is because theWhisp has about a month to release one. So sort answer is no, it is not based on 11/1/2014 build released by theWhisp.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] fcaronte:
Good job ? what do you think about repartition by odin with .pit file for fix the internal sd? Do you know how to do this try without damage nothing? If use class 4 sd for internal storage...I've problem with app speed? Ah... There is the white screen bug?

And finally is there NFC support or is always kernel disabled?

is this -> cm-11-20140204-UNOFFICIAL-jenad <- your last version with no internal sd mount?

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bleached:
I know how repartition is done, and it is stated in many other threads how to do it. However for some reason it does not work for me (I get an id 0x95 error).

I use class 4 sd and I have no speed problem whatsoever.

The latest version is no_internal too. I will rename that right away.

About Whitescreen, it is here too, as I use theWhisp's sources. Perhaps if you underclock your CPU you won't see it, as it won't be getting so hot.

Your choice...
