This will not be a guide of what sim cloning is, but since I am using this very nice piece of Software for years now, I will try to introduce it to you.
Sim Cloning means creating a copy of the Original Sim-card. Some of you might ask, what are the benefits of making a clone of your original Sim Card:
-Can I use both cards at the same time, so that I can have two phones at different locations?
=No. You can ONLY have one card active otherwise your Netwoek provider would notice 2 copies of the same Number and might deactivate your account. You should also consider, that some logical conclusions are made by the Network Providers like this: You can’t be in France and few minutes later activate your Clone Card in Brazil. The Network Provider knows the Time that would be needed to travel from one place to the other one.
-If I have the original Simcard and the Clonecard active, would both telephones ring and can I receive SMS messages on both phones at the same time?
=No. Only one device would ring, more specificaly the telephone that replied first to the call by the Network. The same happens with the SMS’s.
-Can I have more numbers than one in the same phone at the same time?
= Yes and No, the “Simemu-card” can store up to 10 different phonenumbers. But,…they will not be active at the same time. Only one number is registered to the Network Provider. The switching between the different numbers is done through a smart menuitem in your phone.
-How do I write on my simcard the other 9 numbers?
=You can NOT use your original simcard and make changes on that card to support more numbers. Instead you need to find a “Programmable Card” and copy the Firmware of the “SIMEMU” on it. These ‘empty’ programmable cards are called “Silver card” or “Green card” according to their Processor (CPU) and the Memory Capacity.
-What do I need to make a clone of my original card?
=That is not quite easy any more since most of the Original Sim cards are made “Copy Proof”. This means that you are not able to read the necessary information out of them to use for your clone card. This procedure requires experiments with your Original Sim Card which might end into a destroyed Original Sim-Card. You will have to run a Software that will “brute force” the information out of your card, but the totally allowed read attempts are limited and will end up into a destroyed Card. Imagine the Hangman game with a Veeeery long word to guess
-Why would I want to make a clone of my card?
= There are many different opinions on that.
1) You can have a backup of your card in case you loose your phone
2) You can use the same Phonebook on all your numbers on the Sim in your cloned card.
3) You can have a spare phone in your car in case you would forget your phone at home. Just ask your wife, neighbor or dog to turn it off for you.
4) You can hide a second phone number from your wife without her knowledge
5) You can draw the attention of all your friends with new telephone devices although you appear with an old cheap one.
6) You can have different Network providers on the same clone *but only one will always be active.
7) You avoid destroying the contacs of your expensive phone due to card switching in case you need to change cards because you don’t want to carry your P910 to your job.
You can ask your Brother, Dad or Friend to make a clone of a new card and send you the “Ki and IMSI” through E-mail or Telephone. You can enter this info into your phone by just typing it like a sms message.
there are many more reasons I can’t think of right now.
-Is the card cloning expensive?
= You will need some equipment for the programming of the clone and the reading of the original card. And you will need an empty Pic card (Green or Silver). The whole equipment should cost you less or more 40 Euro, Remember, never give away your simcard to somebody else to do this task since he will keep a copy of your simcard. The only info he will need to write down are few numbers.
Good luck and happy cloning
Softeware that Reads and Writes to any Operator Sim Phone Card. That can be used to backup Operator Sim Phone Card information like SMS/phone numbers and more. Use to back-up information to Txt or doc files. Reset card pin.
