Step 3: Have you completed the APN settings after you installed (added) the eSIM? (For Android users)
Some Android phones (Samsung Galaxy, OPPO, etc.) require an APN settings procedure after installing the eSIM profile. Please check our eSIM APN settings page if you cannot use data after you install the eSIM profile.
Step 4: I completed all of the steps above, but I cannot use the data connection yet.
Please check the following:
・Are you currently in Japan? The eSIM data is ONLY valid when you are in Japan.
・Make sure you ONLY have our eSIM turned ON.
・If you are using an Android phone, please check if you have completed the APN settings.
Make sure there are no typos, or extra spaces when inserting the APN settings.
If this still does not solve the issue, please contact us at your earliest convenience with the following information to speed up the troubleshooting:
1. Your device type and model - as well as from which country you bought it
2. Send us a screenshot of the APN setting page; we would like to see if everything is correct.
3. Send us a screenshot of your Network / Mobile Data / SIM Card Manager Settings pages.
4. Send us a screenshot of your home screen where we can see the signal bar display.
5. Send us a screenshot of the error message display. (If any)
Step 5: I can use the data connection, but I cannot enable the hotspot function (tethering).
