RE: E-sims and Voiceover.

2023-12-22 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Jessica,

Okay, I just saw your reply and re-read the instructions.

So, you can activate their E SIM as long as you have WiFi.  Great,  That means 
that your iPhone 12 will work just fine.

The only issue, as you stated, is that you do not know how to remove a physical 
SIM card from your device.

Well, unless you’ve removed a physical SIM card once,  there is no way one can 
describe the process, in a few words.

Please note that one does not need eyesight to remove a physical SIM but one 
does need a paper click or SIM card removal tool, and a rather steady hand.

So, I suggest that you find someone or go to somewhere, like BEST BUY, and have 
someone remove the physical SIM, for you.

Mark

Wi-Fi or an existing cellular plan is required to install an eSIM. You do not 
need a physical SIM card.
Setup Your Cellular Service with eSIM:
1. If your current device has a physical SIM card, please remove it before 
continuing
2. Turn on your phone
3. Connect the phone to WiFi
4. Follow the on-screen prompts or 
https://www.consumercellular.com/esim-install?uri=LPA%3a1%24SM-V4-103-A-GTM.PR.GO-ESIM.COM%24CC7EC19AC4CCE5C4B6895212B745E15F#qr-jump
 below to begin eSIM installation
5. After the eSIM has been successfully installed, you will need to restart 
your phone.
What's Next?
New Numbers and Replacement Orders
Your service is ready to go. If you are changing carriers, please note your old 
service will no longer work.


So the whole scanning of the QR code as well as me not knowing how to even 
remove the SIM card from my phone is what I’m unsure about.

RE: E-sims and Voiceover.

2023-12-22 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Jessica,

Hopefully, by the time you read this reply, you will have already gotten your E 
SIM up and running.  If you have not yet got your E SIM up and running, there 
are a couple of things you may wish to note:

1.
Based on the info you provided from the carrier, you will most likely need to 
be using an iPhone 14 or later.  I say this because in their email they state 
that you cannot activate their E SIM with a physical SIM installed and they 
also state that you need an active E SIM card in order to proceed.  These two 
conditions can only be met by iPhone 14 or later.  Now it may be that they sent 
you generic instructions that may or may not be valid in all situations.

2.
When you call the 800 number, they should be able to get you up and running, 
although it may take a little time as you will have to read a very long phone 
identifier number to them.

3.
Just so you know, there are several app, in the App Store that are completely 
voiceOver accessible and that will allow you to purchase and activate an E SIM 
on your iPhone, provided that you have, at least, WiFi access.  For example, I 
have recently used the T Mobile Prepaid app to install T Mobile E Sim cards on 
several phones.  T Mobile Prepaid offers several attractive plans, depending 
upon your needs.  They have an unlimited talk and texting with 1GB of data for 
approximately $15 per month.

4.
When it's all said and done, activating an E SIM is not difficult but neither 
is it intuitive.  So, I'm hoping that you will not spend a great deal of time 
struggling with the process; choosing instead, to get some sighted assistance 
or going to a local store and having them activate the E SIM, for you.  All 
things being equal, once you get your new E SIM activated, you will not have to 
deal with it again, for years.

Mark

What kind of phone is your new phone.
If it is a new iPhone, it probably doesn’t have a SIM card in it, because in

Well, you would have to point the phone at the computer and hope that you can 
get a good scan to activate the SIM. And two also activate or remove the Sim 
card, you need a paper clip to stick in the same tray, to remove the old Sim 
card. I hope this helps.

RE: E-sims and Voiceover.

2023-12-22 Thread Brent Harding
It might be possible to call them and get them to give you the manual info to 
do it without the camera. I know the whole ESIM thing used to be a battle to 
try to transfer to a new phone, but the tricky part of actually shooting the 
code with the camera is probably getting it to be on screen when one scrolls 
through the message. If one aims toward the center of the screen and backs away 
a bit, like one was scanning a piece of mail or something, it may work, and I 
did it a time or two back when, but with Verizon these days, I don’t need to do 
it that way.

I’d love to talk to you more to see if we can both shed some light on this.  
Unfortunately, this is the only phone I have, so not sure what to do there.

Well, if you want, I would not mind talking with you and helping you through 
the process. But the key to this whole thing, is you need to have another phone 
available that you can talk to consumer cellular on. So that they can give you 
the codes. And if you are. Upgrading your phone, the one that only does eSIM. 
Then you'll be starting from scratch. Like I did.

Re: E-sims and Voiceover.

2023-12-22 Thread Jessica Moss
This is actually my first time having done anything with an e-sim, so this 
whole process is all new to me.  Sadly, I know nothing about how to even 
remove/insert a SIM card, so in the past, when I switched carriers, I either 
just took my phone to a carrier-specific store and let them do it, or let 
Hannah (my now 14-year-old daughter,) do it, who is really good with just about 
anything tech-related.
  However, she’s in Orlando visiting her dad for Christmas, and things got so 
busy right before she left, that there wasn’t time for me to ask her to help 
then.

give them are all they had to do, was give me some numbers to put in, and my
