Hi, I learned from here : http://androidcommunity.com/heres-how-to-i...-edge-20160323/

Did it on the first attempt.

Use lighter to heat up the Sim, about few seconds, the plastic will bend/melt, then dig out the metal chip, it's quite easy.

Before I attempted to the actual Sim card (UM), I did tried up other unwanted Sim (Maxis), it's too thick compare to the UM, I believe different Sim have different thickness, luckily my 2nd sim is not thick, that's why I did it easily.

Ya, some chip is thick, you may need to try anoth sim.

Hmmm, this I'm not sure because all my contacts are stored in Google and not in sim, I think both sim numbers will appear inside your contact list, hence the Whatsapp contacts merged too.

You guys failed at which step? I'm lucky enough to succeed at the first attempt on my UMobile sim, prior to the actual sim mod, I tried on unwanted sim/sdcard, but I realized some chips are not favorite to this mod due to the thickness on the chip, example on my abandoned maxis sim.

The tray is a bit tight, I'm ok with it because I don't plan to eject it regularly.

Did u use lighter to heat up the plastic? Just a few seconds expose to fire, the plastic will get bend/melt, before the plastic get cold and reformed, quickly separate it using a sharp objects such as cutter. This is what I did.
