iPhone 14 Pro Max and all other iPhone 14 series now offer eSIM. The physical sim card tray is gone, replaced by eSIM that will be inside the software.
In this video, I will show you how to transfer physical SIM or eSIM from your old iPhone to your new iPhone 14 Pro Max and iPhone 14's.
Let's dive in.

They should of just kept the sim card in it

@dontbanmebrodontbanme5403 Жыл бұрын

There are two main benefits to not keeping a physical sim card. 1. It pretty much makes it useless if someone steals your phone - In the past, they'd immediately pop out your sim, put a new one in, put it on a new carrier and boom, your phone is stolen. This can't be done anymore 2. It's super easy, when in another country, to get minutes/text/data added to your esim, so that you don't have to pay super expensive roaming charges esim, without a doubt, is the way to go. Now if only I could get my working! It's Christmas day on a Sunday, these suggestions didn't work for me and AT&T is closed. Grrrrr!!!

Can you transfer minutes from a physical sim to an Esim? I have a prepaid service, Tracfone, to be exact. No one else can seem to do it. I purchased an iPhone 14 pro and had to take it back because no one could do it? It has been said that until all the prepaid services get on board with the esim, we won't be able to do it. I have a couple years of prepaid time. I can't lose it.

I have the Samsung S22 Ultra. I am using the Samsung message app to send text messages. When I send a text message to someone I get the visual notification, "Delivered" under the text message, to let me know, the message was delivered. But at the same time I also get an audio sound WITH the visual notification to let me know the text was sent. I get the sound that is the default sound that is under the “sounds and vibration under the “notification sound”. I do NOT want to get an audio sound after I send the text message. I only want to see the visual notification, "Delivered", to let me know, the message was delivered. How do I stop the audio sound, when I send text messages? I also disabled the option “hear outgoing message sounds” under the general settings.

Depends on the carrier I think. But say it’s a BYOD then you will be fine doing eSim only… but if it’s a device that has pSim and purchased from the carrier typically as of now they want to ax to care with pSim then you can activate with eSim after. Imagine that will change in the future
