Nice. I don't have twtp, but I'm certain it's just one of the skipped or enabled app in the skip or allowed xml. The header of each xml says what it's suppose to work with and release number. I just changed 986 to 9860 so they said same thing on each row

I'll post files and how to tonight after work. Spread the word. I already added my t-mobile plan and now I have my SD card (1tb) and both my numbers. No more choice of hmmm which do I want my storage or both my numbers on same phone

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] VICosPhi:
I have been on XDA for some time now, and I have seen how Samsung patches every method users find to get around their stupid policies.

One example is the dual SIM + microSD hack which Samsung disabled in Software update

Another would be call recording....

It might be better to share the method with long term XDA members to avoid Samsung patching it in next update.

BTW, is root required for this method? I would assume yes since modem files need to be replaced and probably CSCs?

Yes. I did it with root on chc firmware on 11,

Ah the good Ole days of gluing your Sim to SD card...I loved that method....and the flat ribbon to glue to back of phones...

When I lived in Philippines just about every phone you buy is dual Sim plus SD card. I am use to it. And by golly I paid for an esim and I just want what I was promised on pre-order.

So here's where I'm at on my 986u1 ,

Got Sim manager etc.

Have to go into modem firmware and add line

Mcfg_hw/sdx55/fusion/la/dsds/

Mcfg_hw.bin

In build.props have to change Sim count to 2

In build.props set nsds to dsds

I still have to find imei number of my esim

When I did my 9860 it populated on its own
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
Thanks. Will look into today.

I got my esim up and running on 986u1 but got find imei of it to set it up

So you've done it for both 9860 and 986u1? Would you please share some tips on how to get it on 9860? Maybe in a private message?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
As soon as I get time I will private msg full way I did it , I am on call 24/7 as I manage a auto repair and towing shop for aaa, plus 3 kids and my wife works,nights. It makes for little time. I have been trying this since August when I got them
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
You have to go into root into your optics prism and what ever your service provider is rename that folder to anything. Then go into the wwd folder. It's,only xmls that are written in plain English. Change settings you need. Then rename the wwd folder to same name as your service provider so when it loads it loads the renamed wwd folder. The other option is to swap files from wwd to your carriers folder. This is easiest way to edit as it's all English.

For 986u1 go to build.props change Sim count to 2, then multi Sim option from ss to dsds

Go to modem firmware, image modem hw,

Copy same text as ss but change ss to dsds then link it to multi image mbn hw.bin

Reboot phone. You get pop up as soon as phone boots into os after you put in your pin asking if you want to search for your new mobile plan or scan qr code for it

I have tried thousands of different things. Brick phone. Lost radio. I just played and played with settings files folders etc...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] rjohnstone:
Here is the build.prop from N986U1UES1CUA1 firmware.

I do not see any reference to SIM count or nsds settings.

When you have the time, could you put together some screenshots of what you did?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
I'm on 10 atk1 I think but yes soon as I can I'll post screengran of my config
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
It might have,been default.prop but it list number active Sim slots. And it says 1 and I change to 2 and it set so to dsds.

Sorry I have to look back as trying to remember from memory as I think I have read every file in my phone. I do this as I'm getting kids to sleep and on lunch break at work...sitting on throne...anytime I have 5 min to spare

Wouldn´t it be possible to get it working with using EFS explorer and with QPST also maybe you can find how to get all possible carrier aggregations on N9860
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] ReckiT:
And ADB
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] rjohnstone:
If you have root access, you can use ADB "setprop" commands to alter some of the settings.

I prefer to edit properties files directly after making backups.

The rest will require editing files directly.

You need to edit carrier XML settings

You also need to edit modem.bin file to activate eSIM in the modem firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
Ok. I reset my phone back to stock, took notes.

I'm on 986u1. Android 10 ui2.5 magisk patched.

Remove your simcard before you flash your phone. You don't want it to pick a carrier yet.

Start with root folder. Vendor. Default.prop

Change active sim from 1 to 2

And ss to dsds

Go next into optics. Go into wwd carrier , customer.xml scroll down and change esim from false to true

Go into network.xml and add the same line csc feature ril support esim true.......

Change any other settings you wish to activate like real time net speed call recording etc...

Next find your carriers folder and copy the omc and any other files except customer.xml and network.xml , move those into wwd folder but rename the ones already in there or delete them which ever you want to do

Next. Rename the folder of your carrier to anything you want. Then rename the wwd folder to the name of your carrier. In my case I'm t-mobile. So the tmb I names to t1 and wwd to TMB.

Go to prison and swap names of folders in same fashion

Go into where your modem firmware and in oem file change xxxxxxxxxx....la/ss....to xxxxxx./dsds/...

Then go into imei folder and set the carrier from xaa to whatever it you use

Thats quick and dirty of it.

Power off phone after you modify files. Insert sim card and power back on,

After it loads you should now have sim manager under connection settings, when you first boot it will ask you to search for mobile plan

I will like to confirm this, do I need to reset my device before I start this process because I'm on andriod 11 One UI 3.0. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] rjohnstone:
This process is for Android 10 OneUI 2.5 only.

I have verified that some of the CSC settings have been relocated to different XML config files in Android 11 OneUI 3.

For example the "CscFeature_RIL_SupportEsim" is located in cscfeature.xml and not in customer.xml.

Customer.xml for any carrier, no longer has any reference to eSIM in the latest Android 11 build.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
I couldn't get it to work on 11. Main reason was they changed how it builds files. I have spent hours and hours reading Android open source code ,

I will not give up until I Crack it on 11.

For my 9860 on chc it was same procedure. I will reset it and then post it.

The way I got all bands open on my 9860 was copying modem configuration files from 986u1 to 9860. Reading the way it builds files it that it has dozen configuration and when the one it requests matches it loads that configuration. I just took xaa modem configuration renamed it to what it was loading and it loaded it and changed the bands.

I'm sorry I'm in middle of covid for 2nd time and I'm more sick than first time.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] rjohnstone:
I was seeing the same thing in the config differences between 10 and 11.

Cat and mouse game with Samsung.

Hope you feel better soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
Yes. I seen that. They moved lots around. Its easy in 10 but 11 was different girl..

I did mine on last 10 version I'm on atk1, chc csc, I like it as there's lot more features...lte 5g toggle sa nsa toggle net speed ...lots of bloatware but its all easily uninstallable. Plus. No Google bloat what so ever

That is awesome and was the main reason why I purchased this phone was for esim function.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Maksim78:
Thank you for posting this! The only thing is the directions are not clear.

Can you please explain a few things?

1. "And ss to dsds" - Where exactly I need to change ss to dsds?

I couldnt find those strings in default.prop pr build.prop

2. WWD carrier is some Chinese carrier, do I have to use WWD or it could be done in own carrier? TMB?

3. There is no eSim string in customer.xml in WWD

4. "Go into where your modem firmware and in oem file change xxxxxxxxxx....la/ss....to xxxxxx./dsds/"

Do I leave the string with SS in in oem_hw.txt and add a second string with DSDS like on your screenshot or r replace it?

Thanks again for your hard work!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
the wwd is in list of carriers, i use it because its only one not coded, the xml is in english. the 986u1 has it in its list of carriers, the ss to dsds is the ril radio config, scroll through mu buils and you will see ss at end of one of the strings and then you can see where i changed to dsds, ss is single sim, dsds is dual sim dual stand by

if you want to use single sim option the you need both ss and dsds as it sets configs for each mode,

the way i have it posted in pics worked for me, your config might be a little different, this is just way i got it to work on mine
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Maksim78:
I have the same SM-N986U1 as you, but I do not see that string anywhere in prop. I did however found it in \vendor\build.prop but the string is persists.radio.multisim.config=ss

Actually looks like I made some progress, but when I am trying to add the plan from Sim card menu, its searching for a plan indefinately and QR code is greyed out...

Sorry to bother you, but just trying to get eSIM working :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] vishalgarg:
Can anyone make a video for a noob like me ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
No bother, I wanted mine to so I don't have puny 128 gb memory and 1 Sim, couldn't get 512gb in copper bronze. Main reason I bought single Sim was I was promised dsds by Samsung via esim when I pre-ordered. So to get color I wanted I had to choose 128 gb and ss

I also bought dual Sim 512 copper 9860 and it was promised esim. Samsung = LIES TO SELL PRODUCTS
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
Mine was greyed out , I used qr scanner to add plan. From the quick menu. T-mobile sent me qr code and it added fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Maksim78:
Mine keep searching to Mobile plan... Can't add using QR code, since its greyed out... Also eSIM shows unknown in Adount phone. Will reset the phone and try again. Also on the sire note, eSIM ebabled Samsungs have a service running called euicccSrvice. should be under \priv-app\ and we are mssing this service in our eSIM not-enabled devices..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
Yes. Euicc is service that enables lpa to talk to modem for service. You have to have esim client. One version of Google sim manager has it built in for Google fi but it works .

You have qpst Qualcomm tool ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Maksim78:
Nope, I am trying to get euccservice.apk from any samsung snapdragon firmware... I edited one from Exynos version, it installs but fails when I open up Sim card manager. How did you get it to work with Google Sim card manager?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mdyche82:
Exynos won't work as hardware it's looking for isn't there. Snapdragon uses snapdragon sdx55 modem ,exynos uses their own cluster and modem.

I don't know how exactly it worked. I am going to reset my 9860 and post guide like for 986u1. There's more tweaks I'm learning. All this time off work and my head hurts so bad every heartbeat makes my eyes feel like their going pop out my head. It's not productive now.

I will keep trying. When I spoke to Samsung hk they said they had plans to enable it in mid year when more local carriers support it. We may get lucky and not have to back door it.

There's a certificate it has to install during boot that activates both ril lpa interfaces for it to work. I think I changes something I forgot and don't remember it . I opened every file I could find. I've bricked and reset this phone 1k times. It saves certain settings in several files even if you wipe device they persist ,

Just like if you factory reset it should go to tgy tgy tgy tgy , but every time I reset I stay on chc wwdwwdtgy so it's saving settings. I found some of these in recovery and deleted the logs.

Yall have good night and keep trying. I will reset soon as I feel better
