How to Install and Turn On Roamix Omni
On this page
Last updated
You only install Roamix Omni once. After that it stays on your phone and works on every trip.
Before You Start
- Your phone must support eSIM. See which phones support eSIM.
- Your phone must be unlocked. See how to check your carrier lock.
- Connect to Wi-Fi. Install at home, before you fly.
Step 1: Install the eSIM
Open Omni in your dashboard or the app. When your eSIM is ready, you'll see Install your eSIM with three ways to do it:
- Install directly on the phone you're using. Tap the button for your device type and follow the prompts.
- Scan the QR code from another screen. On your phone, open Settings, go to Mobile Data (or Cellular), tap Add eSIM, and point your camera at the code.
- Enter details manually. In the same Add eSIM screen, choose to enter details and copy in the SM-DP+ Address and Activation Code shown on the page.
It takes about a minute. You can give the line a label like "Omni" to find it easily.
Step 2: Turn It On When You Land
- Go to Settings, then Mobile Data or Cellular.
- Select the Omni line (or the label you gave it) and turn it on.
- Set it as the line for mobile data.
- Turn on Data Roaming for the Omni line.
Your phone connects automatically. Data now comes from your Omni balance.
Turn data roaming off on your home SIM so your carrier can't charge you while you're away. Your home number still works for calls and texts.
After Your Trip
Don't delete Omni. Switch mobile data back to your home SIM, and leave the Omni line installed for next time.
