Bug Description

krillin vivid and RTM

Current behaviour: If the device has both SIM slots occupied, users are asked on action to select a SIM card for either placing a phone call or sending a text message. This can be very annoying for users because on first time launch there is a different pop up asking a similar question and explaining to users where to amend their default SIM for outgoing communication.

------UX comment------

The desired solution is to change the text of the popup on first time launch and remove the popup on action.
A 3rd popup appears on the dialer app after user made a phone call and didn't select a default SIM. This should be removed as well.
The SIM card in the first SIM slot should be selected by default and the first popup will inform users where to alter the selection and change the default SIM for outgoing communication.

Please follow guidance in this spec:

I don't think any SIM should be selected by default unless the user has set it to be the default.

One improvement would be rather than a "No SIM card selected" popup, it should offer you the choice, eg: a popup with two buttons, one to use SIM 1 and another to use SIM 2.

The user will be informed on how to switch the default SIM if desired. We had the popup with two buttons previously and it didn't test well with users, hence the decision to make a SIM automatically default. Added spec link to bug description and marking as fix committed.
