is this 1G shared between both SIM cards? or 1G each SIM card?

When I bought them, each sim card is independent. Each one contains the 1GB data.

The way it was explained to me is one SIM slot is just the GSM bands and the second SIM slot has both GSM and HSPA+ bands. This same person told me, at T-Mobile, that I had to have one GSM SIM for phone and text and the other would be for data. So this is what I was told this is what the dual SIM slots are about, but truthfully I do not know except the N9002 if extremely popular and sell a lot of them. By the way he never got my data to work and finally I too my phones to another T-Mobile store where the guy said, ""why do you have two SIMs?" After he took out the GSM SIM card out the phone's data worked ever since. so like I said I'm really not sure only that lots of people want the N9002.

no. I had this same question when I bought the phone. It is a really amazing phone. the 2 sims card holder the phone comes with is incase you would like to have 2 different phone numbers on the phone. Remember that per sims card is a phone number. If you so choose to have 2 sim cards then your phone will have 2 different phone numbers. To answer your question specifically, you only need one sim card. The single card will hold you number.

No, this is a single SIM model. There are dual SIM versions in some regions but not the US.

IIRC, the unit MUST use a 2G card. Not sure if these have become unobtainium or not.

You don't need two sima just put one sim and you are good to go just select sim one or two depends on which sim slot you put your card .

Yes, this phone is a DUAL SIM phone, but different from the others because it uses a MINI SIM card and a MICRO SIM card. This is not a problem, when you get the SIM cards from your carrier just inquire about this sizes, if you currently have 2 SIM cards of the same size, you only have to ask your carrier for the exchange. You can also use only one SIM instead of 2.

There is only one slot, but you can purchase a 2G really cheap in Amazon. Also, after you install the 2g, it won't detect it at first, you need to enter the BIOS and out, so it will kick in.

You need not use the second sim.with just one sim it works perfectly well just like a one sim phone. The second slot is only optional.

I believe it will take 2g max.. You can replace your existing card with the two 1g side by side and give you 2g. I don't think the '06 it will take 4g.

it's set for one simcard. If you are looking for a phone compatible with two simcards, check for phone with mention "dual sim cards".
