If I use only ONE SIM card, will this cause error messages asking me to insert a second SIM card or will it gracefully allow me to use only one?

I just got mine, it seems to work okay, but the message is always on for me too.

You can use only one SIM with no problems. The phone is very cost-effective

I used a Activation kit, it had two sims card in it and I used the Big one. Call your service provider and they can walk you thru it if your having a hard time, I did. I used straight talk. and they were very helpful. Hope this help.

I have a local regular (mini?) sim card in there now, but it has slots for two sim cards. I'm also using a thumb drive that I load 'time' onto for my internet here in the Philippines. The thumb drive uses a sim card as well, it encases a micro sim card, which I have to insert into the cellphone to receive the load, so long story short, I guess it takes both. Hope that wasn't too confusing!

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.

It takes one mini sim card. One large dual sim card that can be converted into a mini sim card .I think you can get a phone that takes two sim cards to have two phone numbers in one phone. They call the card a dual sim card because it can be large sim or punch out the center to make it a mini sim.

Last response was erroneous. It can use 2 standard SIM cards, two numbers one phone.

Dear Customer,Thanks for your interest on this phone.You do not need 2 SIM Cards.This model works anywhere in the world if you use a GSM carrier. Please check if your carrier supports GSM technology.NOTE: Unlocked phones are not yet programmed for any network. In order to access the internet and use multimedia messages, you will need to program the phone according to your carrier. We have instructions for AT&T; and T-Mobile (USA only). We look forward on having you as a customer.Thanks,Gus24hrsDeals

I havent tried it yet but I do believe you can call more than one.If you press the intercom button it will ask you all? or which handset if only one.I checked my phone and that is the way it is preprogrammed

You don't need to use 2 sim card. One is Ok to run the phone. I'm not sure whether you can use straight talk. If straight talk has a android app, then you can run it. Also, you'd better buy a micro sd card since the memory of the phone is very small.

No...Dual sim cards are used for two service that you can use at the same time for example you can put a At&t; sim and a T-mobile and you can switch back .yes it would also mean you have two numbers..another example Dual sim cards lets suppose you travel to London from New York..Dual sim ...you can leave your london O2 sim card and put a At&t; card sim card and have 2 cellphone service that way you can use it in two country's .Again Dual sim allows you to use sim cards by switching from sim 1 to sim 2 ... I hope this helps take care..

There is only one card. "Dual" means that the card will fit both a regular SIM slot and a micro SIM slot, depending on what your device needs. You can break away the plastic to use either format.

I bought this phone for a friend in the Caribbean, there are two cell phone providers there, so instead of using two cell phones, you can use one phone with two sim cards one for each provider.the phhone lets you know which provider is being used, and you can select which ever you want to use.
