Dual Sim Android

Is there a way that I can access the other sim in my android? I have an android Cherry Mobile Orbit which is a dual sim android phone. I want to develop an SMS application for m

This method can be used to select one SIM from 2 SIMs!

//above Android API 22
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > 22) {
    //for dual sim mobile
    SubscriptionManager localSubscriptionManager = SubscriptionManager.from(this);

    if (localSubscriptionManager.getActiveSubscriptionInfoCount() > 1) {
     //if there are two sims in dual sim mobile
        List localList = localSubscriptionManager.getActiveSubscriptionInfoList();
        SubscriptionInfo simInfo = (SubscriptionInfo) localList.get(0);
        SubscriptionInfo simInfo1 = (SubscriptionInfo) localList.get(1);

        final String sim1 = simInfo.getDisplayName().toString();
        final String sim2 = simInfo1.getDisplayName().toString();

    }else{
     //if there is 1 sim in dual sim mobile
        TelephonyManager tManager = (TelephonyManager) getBaseContext()
                .getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);

        String sim1 = tManager.getNetworkOperatorName();

    }

}else{
    //below android API 22
            TelephonyManager tManager = (TelephonyManager) getBaseContext()
                    .getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);

            String sim1 = tManager.getNetworkOperatorName();
}

Then to send an SMS you can use the below method

    public static boolean sendSMS(Context context, String smsText) {
    SmsManager smsMan = SmsManager.getDefault();

    SharedPreferences prefs = context.getSharedPreferences("uinfo", MODE_PRIVATE);
    String sim = prefs.getString("sim", "No name defined");
    String simName = prefs.getString("simName", "No name defined");
    String toNum = "";

    try {

        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > 22) {

            SubscriptionManager localSubscriptionManager = SubscriptionManager.from(context);
            if (localSubscriptionManager.getActiveSubscriptionInfoCount() > 1) {

                int simID  = Integer.parseInt(sim);

                List localList = localSubscriptionManager.getActiveSubscriptionInfoList();
                SubscriptionInfo simInfo = (SubscriptionInfo) localList.get(simID);
                ArrayList parts = smsMan.divideMessage(smsText);
                SmsManager.getSmsManagerForSubscriptionId(simInfo.getSubscriptionId()).sendMultipartTextMessage(toNum, null, parts, null, null);
            }else{
                ArrayList parts = smsMan.divideMessage(smsText);
                smsMan.sendMultipartTextMessage(toNum, null, parts, null, null);
            }
            return true;
        }else{
            ArrayList parts = smsMan.divideMessage(smsText);
            smsMan.sendMultipartTextMessage(toNum, null, parts, null, null);
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {

    }
    return false;
}
