Add eSIM hangs indefinitely

aepace — Thu, 14 Dec 2023 19:19:42 GMT

Hello:

I have an issue with the SIM card manager on my Galaxy S23. I purchased the phone in ~February 2023, and successfully purchased, installed, and used an eSIM abroad (via Airalo) in March 2023. Seamless as always, no problem.

Following a system update later in the year (i don't know exactly, maybe August/September 2023), I can no longer add an eSIM, in either Airalo or the SIM Card manager. When I click "Add eSIM", the indictor starts to spin, but it hangs indefinitely. When I attempt to install an eSIM via Airalo, the app just hangs/waits indefinitely as well. This happens when i'm on my home network, on wifi, with VPN on and VPN off.

The steps i've taken to remedy are:

restart the phone (obviously)
clear system caches
reset network settings

Short of a complete wipe and reset, any idea what could be going on?

Thanks

what country are you in? where did you purchase your phone?

I'd be checking in with Verizon if I were you. your Airalo purchase made me wonder if you might be in the wrong forum for Samsung community support.

I'm seeing the same behavior in the system SIM Manager as I am in airalo. And that's months after i was able to add an eSIM.

all I know is that my SIM Manager in my S22U (unlocked) behaves differently with AT&T vs when I was with TMO...what's allowed/not allowed. that's why I suggested you checking in with VZW. You bought the phone from them.

Have you tried removing all esim first then try installing a new one. Is the esim you are trying to install a new one. If not try a new esim

That doesn't help; the SIM manager doesn't list any esims installed, so there's nothing to remove. I recently got a new esim issued from airalo, but the behavior is still there.

I got a little ambitious and started to look at system logs. the output of `adb logcat` is definitely a little verbose to make sense of without filtering, so i tried searching for all events related to "esim" by running

$ adb logcat | grep -i esim

Okay, so first I launched the SIM manager, and this is the logging that was output.

At which point the screen changes and gives me a list of network providers to choose from, or the option to add an esim manually with a QR code (which i tried, and which airalo gave me). Unfortunately, adding with a QR code also times out after two minutes, after changing its state to EID_SEARCHING.

At this point, the logging statements aren't being picked up with any google searches, so I'm sort of stuck as I've reached the end of my knowledge as to what android is doing under the hood :shrug:

I had the same issue. Took the same actions that you did but it was still hanging.

Eventually what worked for me was turning off all the "lock esim settings"...Samsung s23

Travel eSIMs like Airalo do not work correctly on US variants. This is because one primary SIM must be used for all three functions (calls, texts, and cellular data).

No dice, that doesn't work for me. With those changes, the adb logging is still timing out at EID_SEARCHING.

@KiwiBird97 that's just false. i added an airalo travel esim in march 2023 on this exact same phone, and it worked flawlessly

Did you solve the issue?

@Loka1 sadly no

Hi there, so I had the same error, I was trying to add eSIM but it hangs for about 2 min and after QR code scanning system just wouldn't let me to add eSIM just hangs again for about 2 min and returned back to add eSIM thing. I solve this by scanning new QR code for a new eSIM and I was able to add eSIM and it works! I hope that might be helpfull

@Eugene1 I got pretty excited when i read that post, but i'm seeing the same thing. When i scan an esim's QR code directly with the QR code scanner, it jumps straight to "checking esim status' but then it still hangs for two minutes, and then returns me to the options menu on how to add a new esim.

Airalo support, yesim support, and samsung chat support (useless) hasn't been helpful and I *really* don't want to do a factory reset if the phone is going to update and then just break itself again.

Update on this thread:

I wasn't able to get a solution from samsung, airalo, or yesim. As a longshot i was hoping the oneui 6.1 update might have a fix baked in, but no such luck.

I ended up doing a factory reset and now everything with the eSIM returned to normal. Good luck!

Hey, I have the same issue with One UI 6.1. I recently updated the phone to this latest version and after that, my phone stopped registering on the network at all.

I did a factory reset, which does solve this problem, however, after restarting the phone, the problem persists.

Can you confirm if restarting your phone doesn't bring back the problem?
