Frequently Asked Questions
Why won't eSIM activate? Most often the reason is a Chinese firmware or device version. Check the model: it should be ELS-NX9. Also make sure your operator supports eSIM in your country.
How to delete an eSIM profile? Settings → Mobile network → select eSIM profile → Delete plan. After deletion, the profile cannot be restored using the same QR code — you will need a new one from your operator.
Can I transfer eSIM to another phone? No, eSIM is tied to the device. For a new phone, you need to get a separate profile from your operator.
Where to buy eSIM for travel
If you're traveling abroad, it's convenient to buy a tourist eSIM in advance. The website e7m.ru offers eSIM for most countries — you activate it remotely without visiting an operator's office.
