    New DUAL SIM finally works on my MI8 :-)

    Very good question, indeed. Is any developer ready to answer it? BTW, at this moment fw_dipper_miui_MI8_8.11.15_72d3139c34_9.0.zip seems to offer the more stable netork coverage ... WEIRD !!

    On my Mi8, updating the firmware (on top of flashing the latest eu.beta.rom) helped quite a bit to improve the dual sim network performance. However, I still experience weak and even no network receptions in areas where there are a very strong signals available. ...Like you said, it's hopefully...

    New DUAL SIM finally works on my MI8 :-)

    Very Interesting and absolutely supporting the idea, that only a firmware update is providing a stable dual sim card functionality for the Mi8 'global version'. After trying these two firmware versions (with the current beta rom version xiaomi.eu_multi_MI8_8.11.15_v10-9.zip): -...

    New DUAL SIM finally works on my MI8 :-)

    ... The problems returned :-( I found yshalgar firmware on XDA here: https://github.com/XiaomiFirmwareUpdater/firmware_xiaomi_dipper/releases/tag/weekly-16.11.2018. But I am to much an amateur to succeed in installing them via TWRP. What do I have to do in TWRP in order to get the firmware...

    New DUAL SIM finally works on my MI8 :-)

    Finally SOLVED :) I completely stripped and wiped my MI8, flashed the original Xiaomi Global ROM (which didn't really work that well due to the Anti Roll Back protection. It booted up and launched MIUI, but then complained about the file system being not encrypted and only offering "reset...

    Thanks for the update. My Mi8 flashed and re-booted like a charm. 1) Slow motion works. However, it seems to work only for the the last quarter of a mini-video with a duration of what, 3 seconds? --> So the slow motion video sequence records and lasts only for less than a second. I cannot...

    New DUAL SIM finally works on my MI8 :-)

    LOL ... So I guess Xiaomi needs to improve their software for "the powerful AI computing capability of the Snapdragon 845 ... to switch antennas more intelligently, thus ensuring signal strength." ... :emoji_innocent:

    New DUAL SIM finally works on my MI8 :-)

    ... In a city with very strong signal quality of the network providers (Telefonica o2 & German Telekom D1). We have mobile telephone masts all around us :) I have actually tried a third sim card by Vodafone (D2). Again, according to the official network coverage map it's got excellent signal...

    New DUAL SIM finally works on my MI8 :-)

    Thanx mate! That's interessting.. A smart phone (even a 'Phablet') still remains a cell phone, and the 'phone part' of the device should still work reliably, especially for emergency calls. Besides, without a stable network reception, users cannot reliably use the mobile data connections for...

    Good morning everyone ! I just reported a possible bug in the "Bugs Forum" and attached a few screen shots. --> I am still encountering severe network problems with dual sim card operations on my MI8.

    New DUAL SIM finally works on my MI8 :-)

    Over the last updates I always experienced severely weak and unreliable network coverage performance on my MI8, when both sim cards were active. I checked both sim cards in different devices and they were working fine. Also, in the MI8 they are functioning alright, when only one is active. So...

    What does ARB stand for? - Anti Rollback Brotection or - Automated Recurring Bug or - Astonishing, Remarkable and Breathtaking ? ;)

    Is it based on 8.1 or rather on 9.0 ? The download link says: xiaomi.eu_multi_MI8_V10.0.6.0.OEACNFH_v10-8.1.zip

    Thanks mate. my problem was caused by one of the sim cards (Vodafone prepaid). A new sim card from a different provider (Dt. Telekom) is now working just fine along with the other one (Telefonica). Hooray :)

    ... SOLVED ... Sometimes life is so easy :) It was the Vodafone (D2) sim (prepaid) card that caused the problems. Today I received a Dt.Telekom D1 sim card. Now the dual sim operations work like a charm !!! (The other sim card is from Telefonica.)

    Did you perform a clean install or a dirty flash?
