Trying to switch service providers and am stuck on the step to install ESIM after downloading the phone app. number is currently not working as I believe it's being ported. I got a text from my previous service provider about the request. I'm not sure what to do now as the app crashed and now when I open the app again, it's saying

I must say the speed at which you replied to my question is crazy. In all the forums/communities that I've been with, I'm pretty impressed.

@dannyhaitran ok, we might be dealing with esim installaton or porting
can you even make outgoing calls? if you cannot make outgoing calls or unable to connect , this is an esim problem
Did you get to the eSIM installation step? Either the app will ask for your permission to do it for you automatically, or you will get a QR code to install yourself.
If you missed the step, there is a QR code in your Welcome email. Open it from a computer, or another device, then use your phone to scan it to install the eSIM profile on your phone
Once you installed the eSIM profile, (or If you got passed that step), try to reboot your phone once.
If it still does not connect and if you have any active sim on the phone , disable them (eSIM/Physica sim) or remove the physical sim. Then click Reset All Networks on your phone and it will work. (Please note that Reset all Networks will also erase your saved Wifi and Bluetoosh connections, but you just need to add them back after)
if it still does not work, please open ticket with PM support

@dannyhaitran try tapping resend code few times .Do you not get option to send code to email instead ? Did you reply YES to your old provider to confirm the text to port within the 90 minute window ? And does the old provider SIM card still work . But to be safe please submit ticket with support to investigate for you
