Troubleshooting Tecno eSIM
"Add eSIM" not visible: Most Tecno models don't have eSIM hardware — only the Phantom V and Camon 30 Premier do. Check Settings → About phone → Model to confirm your device. Standard Camon, Pop, and Spark cannot use eSIM.
Phantom V Fold/Flip: QR code fails to scan: Open the phone fully to the inner display. The cover screen cannot run the eSIM QR scanner. Scan within Settings → SIM management → Add eSIM, not through the camera app.
eSIM installed but no data abroad: Settings → SIM & network settings → SIM management → select Roamix eSIM → set as default data SIM → enable Data Roaming. Toggle Airplane Mode on/off.
QR code scan fails: Must be on Wi-Fi. QR is single-use — contact Roamix support for replacement. Use manual SM-DP+ entry as fallback.
