Nokia 3610i phone help
Whilst 'exploring' my lovely new (to me) Mercedes CLK 350 I was playing with the overly engineered centre console lid and happened upon this beauty inside!
It's as minty fresh and 'as new' as the rest of the car!
Took it out, got a SIM adaptor and put the SIM out of my business phone into it and she fired up all fine. Made a call to my other handset and returned back and that all works fine. Sent a text and that worked fine. Sent my mate a text (with the multi-letter key action required ) to say the phone worked (he said a 5g SIM wouldn't work in 2g phone....), all worked fine.
He responded but the text message went to my personal phone number handset instead. Tried my son to test it and same, he received text off my Nokia but his response went to my personal handset. All the text stream to both of them appeared to have come from the Nokia and their screen showed response was back to the Nokia yet only the very first "it lives" message was sent from the Nokia
The business phone SIM (now in the Nokia) is a Tesco contract (runs through O2 network I understand) SIM and was originally in an iPhone 9 as my business phone. My personal phone is an O2 contract SIM in an iPhone 13.
Both handsets were completely separate and I've never experienced one handset 'cloning' a different phone?

Just remember that iPhones can “see” each other over different networks not just the mobile carrier, particularly if they both belong to you as devices on one Apple ID. Try turning off the “ghost” device.A visitor from the dark side, my other vehicle is an is still an EV. Strictly speaking its SWMBO.

But it’s not two iPhones; it’s a Nokia 3610i and an iPhone 13 now..
When the SIM’s were in two separate iPhones I didn’t have this issue
Unsure about apple but on android unless you explicitly choose SMS then "texting" can mean RCS which uses an internet connection instead of the mobile text service.
