Can I choose prior to each call which SIM I want to place the call with? Or do I have to deactivate one SIM to use the other?

No you don't have to deactivate any sim card. Both sim card runs at the same time. Thank you.

On the menu screen. Go to settings. Choose Dual SIM settings and enable SIM1 only, SIM2 only or both.

I think you'll have to call Verizon to make sure. I don't really know how SIM cards work regarding contracts and switching phones.

Yes you can use two SIMs simultaneously. I have an AT&T and a Philippines SIM card in the phone and I can receive text and calls in both SIM without doing anything. It is dual active SIM card phone.

The area in which you are using your phone will determine which carrier will be utilized. In my case, it's AT&T, so I presume I have an AT&T Simm card.

I use three different sim cards in my phone depending what country I am in at the time. If you are already with AT&T they can fix you up with a new card with your old number. No problem.

If you get one that is not defected meaning both sim slots work Yes both will work at the same time meaning you will have two sim cards in the phone at the same time but different numbers. You can receive calls and make calls from both you only switch from sim1 to sim2 each time you want to make calls its your choice now depending on what number you want to call from. It is very easy and nice if both sim cards are working but one of mine didn't work.

Dual SIM feature allows you to operate 2 separate phone numbers from the same hardware. They are both usually active to receive call. Of cause you can only answer one line at a time.

Yes. You can disable at each individual phone as well as the base unit. It's nice to disable, especially when you have company in the house, I do not like other people hearing who is calling.

It is already activated. If you have an unlocked phone, after you put in the sim you can make calls right away even in the US, just dont pick it up as it will be long distance call.

Rasheed, we have this system with 5 different handsets and 4 different phone lines. You can place calls on any line using any handset. Hope that helps.

I haven't used the dual sim card feature yet. My guess is if you have a 2nd sim card (for a different carrier says in a different country) you can switch between the 2 sim cards when needed. Standby probably refers to how long the battery lasts when you're not using the phone. I'm reading on my phone so I frequently has it hooked up to charge. I would say if you don't use it you could have it standby for a couple days. For such a large phone, it doesn't drain the battery that quick, pretty decent.

The device requites a Sim chip so you can call into it to activate it....once activated it will not answer another call until it is de activated from the original phone number you activated it from, it will only call the activating phone number when it detects sound. You can use multiple phones to activate it, but only one at a time, so you can use your cell,home phone, or someone else's phone on the device for monitoring.

I have not used this feature, but when INT is pressed it asks whether you want to transfer call to base, handset 2 or handset 3. Sorry if this is not helpful.
