Bug Description
When using two SIM cards from different countries, here Germany and Ukraine, I have to activate "roaming" as dataconnection to obtain mobile internet access, even in my home network in Germany. As a negative side effect I will be unable after changing to roaming for data connection to receive calls and SMS on my Ukrainian mobile number, as the network provider immediatly refuses this SIM card. It seems that the phone tries to get for both SIM cards roaming access, for which the Ukrainian card is not registered.
Provider Germany: O2
Provider Ukraine: MTS Ukraina

I attach a screenshot to illustrate the problem. It has been made in my German home network, but it shows both cards in roaming mode. I have to activate roaming for mobile data networks, which causes that my Ukrainian number is refused, as it is only registered for data transfer in its Ukrainian national network.
At the end my smartphone turns to an ordinary mobile phone if I wish to operated both cards for receiving phone calls and sms.
