In my case deactivating SIM2 not just disables SIM1 data but actually deactivates the whole SIM1, including calls. It takes a reboot to fix it, i.e. have SIM2 disabled but SIM1 correctly working.

Workaround:

  • Turn off SIM2
  • Switch SIM1 to 2G/3G in network settings
  • Wait for data connection to be established
  • Switch SIM1 back to 4G

Repeat when 4G loses data connection.
