Use SIM card slot as a smart card reader in Android phones

android, javacard, kernel, sim-card

Solution

If your phone implements SEEK for Android open source stack, try enumerating the readers (you could have SIM1, SIM2). If you see 2 SIM readers, you're good to go. Honestly I think this is unlikely though, because Android's RIL interface is not designed to work with 2 SIMs.

Problem

I am working with Android phones that have 2 SIM card slots. I want to know if there is a way to use one of these slots to read another type of card, like JavaCards?
