Sim Card manager is present but can't add eSim with no Imei or Eid present on the device.

- Thread starter warriorvibhu
- Start date
Just read the 4th beta is out! Can't wait for the download link!
Has anyone been able to locate the beta 4? I have looked on many sites and all say it is out but no one has a copy of the update file.

After flashing UI 4 beta or T-Mobile firmware since U1 hasn't received eSim update yet.

Ever consider it might be something you're doing? Others here have flashed on TMobile and not had an issue. Odin version? Method of getting yourself to the unlocked firmware first done correctly?
My model is U1. I had flashed TMobile firmware before to get eSim with no issues. I first flashed TMobile firmware, when this didn't work, flashed back to U1 and tried beta firmware on the first device. On my second device I tried beta firmware first and then tried TMobile firmware and had the same issue. On both firmwares, once Sim manager is opened, data on physical SIM stops working and default APN is not selected. Even selecting APN didn't enable data. Reboot also didn't help. Once factory restored, it works. As soon as I open Sim manager same issue. Let's see what the repair technician finds this time. I included screenshots of the issue in the box this time.

Had you tried to manually change your CSC? Because if you don't manager to trigger that via flash or manually you likely would leave yourself in limbo like this.
I didn't try to change CSC since it was properly showing as TMobile in TMobile firmware and as TMB/XAA with U1.
Make sure you're on the latest build and start with beta 1, 2 and finally 3.
If you read the first post it clearly mentions you can't flash beta 2 unless you have beta 1 so you have to go in order 1, 2 and 3
As soon as it's released in US I will try to capture and post now if it's released midnight I may be able to capture it in the morning so allow me that much benefit

One UI 4 Beta is live for Note 20 Ultra in US (Unlocked devices)
This Beta is for SM-N986U1 only
Open up the Samsung members app it will show if there is an update available. Update the app.
After update see the top banners as in my screenshot. Tap on that and sign up for Beta. In case you don't get the sign up banner, see below.
Beta 1 - I was able to capture One UI4 Beta 1 OTA link
Beta 2 - This enables esim on U1 (Unlocked) - One UI4 Beta 2 OTA link
Beta 3 - One UI4 Beta 3 OTA link
Google pay is not working on Beta 1, 2 and 3.
Pre-requisite - To flash Beta 1 you need to be on firmware N986U1UES2DUJ7
Beta 2 should only be flashed after you are on Beta 1
Beta 3 should be flashed only when you are on Beta 2
Just download by clicking the link rename it to update.zip and flash it either through recovery or by using ADB.
If you don't want to download using OTA link, rename etc our good friend @kangi26 has uploaded the beta versions along with the instructions to flash here in the post 3 of his thread along with many other firmwares.
Fair warning flashing through recovery or ADB may wipe your device.
To avoid Wipe (ATT users on U1 firmware) do the following: (Thanks @DevVorteX
- Remove SIM
- open phone app, dial *#272*IMEI#
- Replace IMEI with your IMEI number which you can copy from settings
- This brings up service menu
- Select XAA
- Click Install
- Select "Sales&Network Code Change"
- Hit the "OK" button
- Your phone will restart
- When it came back up, I checked in software info and it was XAA/XAA/ATT,XAA (whatever that means)
- Reboot to recovery
- Sideload the beta via adb
- Let it do it's thing and reboot (keep sim out the whole time)
- When it boots up, you're good to go
- Put the SIM back in, and it'll prompt you to reboot
- That's it. No more wipes.
Beta registrations are closed for now as it's full.4
It worked!!!
Before I used adb to sideload beta3, I used that *#272*IMEI# menu thing to go to XAA/XAA/ATT. I rebooted to recovery and did the sideload and my phone just booted up without wiping.
So the full steps:
- Remove SIM
- open phone app, dial *#272*IMEI#
- obviously replace IMEI with your IMEI
- This brings up the secret menu thing
- Select XAA
- Click Install
- Select "Sales&Network Code Change"
- Hit the "OK" button
- Your phone will restart
- When it came back up, I checked in software info and it was XAA/XAA/ATT,XAA (whatever that means)
- Reboot to recovery
- Sideload the beta via adb
- Let it do it's thing and reboot (keep sim out the whole time)
- When it boots up, you're good to go
- Put the SIM back in, and it'll prompt you to reboot
- That's it. No more wipes.
Edit: Just so you know, I got so excited to test this, I almost forgot the whole XAA swap thing and was already installing the zip in recovery. I had to ctrl+c the dos window on my computer to stop it. Then it warned me that my system partition could be broken. I powered through and rebooted and luckily it hadn't actually done the update yet. So I'm glad I stopped it in time and was able to confirm that it does work.3
For those having trouble downloading it, just copy and paste the link into ADM
@warriorvibhu thanks man! Much appreciated
