How to change eSIM network on Xiaomi phone

There are several reasons why you might need to change the network your eSIM is connected to.

You might encounter the following problems when your eSIM isn’t connected to a data network:

  • Extremely slow download/upload speeds
  • Only "E" (Edge) appears in the signal status, instead of 4G LTE or 5G
  • No Internet connection, even though the eSIM shows it’s connected

DO NOT DELETE THE ESIM FROM YOUR PHONE! If it isn’t working, don’t worry-follow the steps below or Contact Us if you need further help.

Manually select a network

If the above does not work, sometimes manually selecting a network can solve the connectivity issue:How to change eSIM network on Xiaomi phone

  1. Open Settings > Mobile Networks
  2. Select your Travel eSIM at the top of the screen and then click on Select Carrier
  3. Disable "Select Automatically" and allow a few seconds to load the networks
  4. Please select one of the available networks from the list - you may try more than one as we support many
  5. Turn on flight mode, wait 30 seconds, turn it off again

If you're using a regional eSIM (like Europe or Asia) we recommend turning Automatic back on once you manage to get a connection or if you leave to a new country.

Still not working?

Contact us and we'll get you sorted as soon as possible (usually within a few hours). In rare cases there may be no service in the area or a network outage beyond our control, sometimes we may need to replace your eSIM but we'll do everything we can to get you connected.
