They all said supporting dual sims. I think after you flashed it and get in bootloader mode immediately to flash the G9200 modem.bin. Give it a run. But I think we actually need someone to do little more tweaks in kernel/system to actually make it works. Theoretically possible but we got no G9200 devs here.

Hi, I have a Samsung Duos S6 whit the Chinese versio and i want to install the European version , phone is sm-g9200 , We have many applications dedicated devices such as Google Play, the map does not find Europe and others where they can find the version good for him? sm-g9200,

[Galaxy S6 General] scampstom:
I don´t remember the source, but I am pretty sure about the Information: while G920FD uses a Qualcomm modem, G9200 uses a Samsung modem or vice versa. So your efforts to use one modem software for the other model will fail anyway or (at least) will not be as easy as discussed here. Because also the camera of G9200 is the Samsung model (at least inside mine) you should take different hardware into consideration.

Nevertheless I would be very happy if somebody finds a solution ;)
[Galaxy S6 General] TheEndHK:
G920FD is using Samsung modem, mine G9200 also got a Qualcomm trademark bcoz it get used some Qualcomm tecs. Qualcomm is almost an all-in-one SOC with radio, if you want to use Qualcomm modem you'll need a SD CPU.
[Galaxy S6 General] criszz:
in that case i wanna swap my 920fd with 9200 because i need tdd bands :PP, somone ?
[Galaxy S6 General] TheEndHK:
You going to China?
[Galaxy S6 General] criszz:
no but my operator is making new 4g network ond band tdd 38 :))
[Galaxy S6 General] TheEndHK:
oh, only China widely used TDD but I know little carriers in the world also preparing TDD.

Yes right. However i must the TDD from China Mobile is very fast now and much improved in last few months since S6 released.

Just make sure you buy the S6 with support for the right LTE channels.

SIM Network Combo

I've heard that the Galaxy S5 Duo switches the secondary SIM (whichever isn't active) to 2g only, one of my SIMs is 3g only which means that it would essentially be disabled when not active.

Is the S6 Duo capable of keeping the secondary active at 3g or higher or is it the same behaviour as the S5? I'm on Vodafone/Three in the UK so this is a concern to me as Three operate only 3g bands. I've not be able to find an answer elsewhere in the thread or forum but apologies if it has already been answered.

TIA,

Keegan

Not true. It is just a matter of LTE bands. Check if the ones in your area match those of your phones.

I'm not too sure what product page you mean but I've got the 920fd. This is basically the dual sim version of the s6 that's sold in the Netherlands.

Which version do you have? Just flash back the original rom (see sammobile.com). If you are still in a loop just press on/off and volume - till phone is rebooting and press additionally home button when it restarts. With this you will get back to download mode and you are able to flash rom with Odin. Just start Odin, take the original rom and put in USB when you are in download mode.

By the way: I had this problem when trying some roms on G9200, too.

Need to flash s6 duos firmware

Hey there

I have purchased 920FD from uae

But in my country somehow the phone is not supporting the LTE bands

Here follow the doubts

If I flash with some random firmware say like Russia or some other does the LTE support change or does it remain the same

Aka Are the LTE BANDS hardware related or changing the firmware would also change the LTE bands support

Second doubt

As much I would like to use LTE

would changing the firmware also affect the Knox software

Cause I am finding the software really useful

And last time around when I changed the firmware

To be accurate I had rooted the note 3

My knox software wouldn't start

Will changing the firmware require me to root the phone

Response appreciated

Best regards

Need to buy G920FD

Hi there,

I'm Portuguese and I travel across Europe, so I understand is G920FD I need and I already find good prices.

My problem is about Dual Sim "Standby" and "Active"... I have found a great website witch explain the difference but, to confirm with you advanced users:

Dual Sim Standby (DSS) - Allows each of both cards to listen of a call. When a call is established on a card, the other one is not active any more.

Dual Sim Active (DSA) - The phone is connected to both networks simultaneously and can make from a call to the other one without hanging up. These telephones can work only with two transceivers.

Normally, when SIM receives and emits 4G data, the other SIM can simultaneously make and receive calls.

This is my future settings: SIM1 for service data with roaming and SIM2 only for receive calls.

Example: If SIM1 is busy long time in 4G, I need to be sure I'm reachable on SIM2.

Because I found an issue that confuse me at the moment I was ready to buy the phone.

"Another issue with dual standby phones that support 4G is that, when the 3G/4G network is used the other SIM becomes inactive.

Usually you will not notice this issue with normal usage, but try using GPS app or watch a streaming YouTube video, the other SIM will be unreachable."

I don't care about call-forwarding, when I'm in a call on SIM1 or SIM2, I don't care, I never permute from new call and left my friend in hold.

Just to be sure that if I use SIM1 very hard on data this not affect SIM2 to receive calls from network.

And it's not bad if a call is answered from SIM2 so SIM1 became inactive for call and data? ok with that.

To resume, "Standby" is like, when a call is active on SIM, the other SIM enter in some airplane mode (disconnect network), right? If I can say like that.

It's my first duos and I would share if that is correct or not with you before purchase.

Thanks for your help.

I was looking principally for 64Gb version exclusively.

Found here! 6 units remain in stock: jadopado.com/product/JP00014548/samsung-galaxy-s6-dual-sim-64gb-black-sapphire/110720/

or 32Gb found here: eglobalcentral.eu/samsung-galaxy-s6-g920fd-dual-sim-32gb-sim-free-unlocked-black.html

Regarding the 32Gb price Vs 64Gb and all issues with memory not enough, I have bayed the 64Gb for little amount more and approx $100 more for VAT taxes. (FR=20%)

Phones are duty free with customs. So this phone, with delivery in France, $620(S6)+$15(ship)+$100(approxVAT)= $735 for 64gb version. (650€uros what is good in EU)

Hope this help.

just flashed XtreStoLite Deo-Mod Edition 2.3

To flash this ROM I first flashed TWRP. The phone could normaly boot to android, but there were no way to acces TWRP. (error message when booting to recovery).(triangle and then bad message).

I then flashed CF-Auto-Root through ODIN. this messed up the whole booting process, and i could not boot to android anymore, nither TWRP. stuck on a message "non sinodroid something like that".

I flashed over TWRP again. I finally could boot to android again and accessTWRP recovery.

Then I flashed the XtreStoLite through TWRP.

I probably did the thing in the wrong maner at first.

--> Make sure you come from 5.1.1 before flashing...

This ROM works pretty fine.

my overall impression on the S6 is that it's a good phone, pretty smooth and fast but the battery handling is too bad, even with custom kernel.(last One full day, no more). My HTC one M8 Dugl was much better on that criteria (at least 2 days), The withdrawal was that it couldn't handle the LTE Band 20 that my carrier uses the most downtown ... (SFR in France). i'll try a few battery saving apps to see if it gets better espacially when phone is not in use during the night.

I had this issue when i used my g9200 in Taiwan and bought the wrong 4g card. It just wouldn't keep data or signal. Every 5 mins it would go in to air plane mode.

[Galaxy S6 General] aerobharath:
When I was using only one sim I didn't any mobile data issues. But ever since I have loaded the second sim there is always some issue with mobile data every day. If I put it in my pants pocket Both sims go without any signal. When I take it out and keep it for 20 seconds It will come back. And randomly the mobile data stops and I have a disable and re enable it to work.
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
Ya everything else seems to be fine, haven't rooted or flashed yet.

I will try swapping sims, let's see if that helps. The bands should be ok or else it would not have picked the 3G signal at all i guess. 4 G ofcourse does not work.

Maybe i will try swapping and then try with just one sim.
