Then that will be the Redmi 1.

Strange, by right SIM1 slot should be can receive 3G network.
My Redmi 1S can receive 3G with SIM card at SIM1 slot:

Older Xiaomi models are the ones not supporting 4G+3G, which are:
- Redmi 1 (4G+2G, SIM2 slot only support 2G)
- Redmi 1S (4G+2G, SIM2 slot only support 2G)
- Redmi Note 3G (4G+2G, SIM2 slot only support 2G)
- Redmi 2 (4G+2G, both slots support up to 4G but only one card will be on 4G at a time)
- Redmi Note 2 (4G+2G, both slots support up to 4G but only one card will be on 4G at a time)
- Redmi Note 3(MTK Helio X10) (4G+2G, both slots support up to 4G but only one card will be on 4G at a time)
- Redmi 3 (4G+2G, both slots support up to 4G but only one card will be on 4G at a time)
- Redmi 3S (4G+2G, both slots support up to 4G but only one card will be on 4G at a time)
- Redmi 4(not the 4 Prime) (4G+2G, both slots support up to 4G but only one card will be on 4G at a time)
- Redmi 4A (4G+2G, both slots support up to 4G but only one card will be on 4G at a time)
- Mi Note (4G+2G, both slots support up to 4G but only one card will be on 4G at a time)
- Mi 4i (4G+2G, both slots support up to 4G but only one card will be on 4G at a time)
- Mi 4c (4G+2G, both slots support up to 4G but only one card will be on 4G at a time)

Need a little correction here, Redmi 1, 1S, Note 3G should be 3G+2G. If these models long have 4G, I wouldn't have to buy a Redmi Note 4G just 4 months after my Redmi Note 3G to work on my 4G SingTel SIM. :s13:

Redmi 1 cannot detect SIM in SIM1 slot

Hi all,

I have a Redmi 1 (no S, 2013023, MT6589).

I have installed TWRP 2.5.0.0 (HM1SG version).

It was bricked for a while, then I managed to flash a working official ROM onto it and revived it.

Problem now is, SIM1 slot is unable to detect and connect to network with a valid SIM (tested in other phone). Have rebooted a few times, still cannot connect.

Otherwise, the phone is usable (wifi works).

Can anyone help on this? Thanks!

regards,
Chris

I assumed you have already done a "Factory Reset". Which version of ROM did you flash to unbrick the phone?

Installed HM1SG-TWRP-2.5.0.0-stas2z.zip, via the recovery method (VolDown+Power), then flashed the above ROM.

If you have done a full wipe, it should work.

Did the phone detect SIM card inserted in slot 1?

Nope. Not at all. 8(

Only WIFI is working fine. Can download apps from Play store.

SIM slots appear not to be working.

Any thoughts?

I would think that SIM slots would not be that easy to kill.

This set was working before. Then I itchy went to play with ROMS.
Bricked it for a while (couldn't boot up beyond Mi logo), then managed to flash and revive it, and then the SIM card in slot is not detectable.
