I've been using my Edge on visible+ without issue. Just get IMEI from an iPhone and put that in to receive a physical card. This has always been an issue even 3 or 4 years ago when it was a young company.
i enter it, comes back imei not valid or something. stone wall.
i'm assuming this phone isnt in whatever esim whitelists exist out there, even though it works fine. it was too early to the tech. the 12r is kind of similar, but it ended up working in that case.
you need some sort of esim option to already exist in in the phone sim card settings i think, and there doesnt seem to be any way to get that but to sign up for boost mobile initially with an esim. but it's too late.
and it would be unofficial even with boost, as i dont believe its on their esim whitelist. but the 12 r isnt on those esim white lists typically either and works fine with visible esim.
Just need something to nudge the esim option into existence in the settings, but boost are butts about it.
hoping one of the other guys who was talking about esim will see this and know something. most likely its a lost cause.
Edit: I guess if the IMEI wont pass visibles ESIM checker its a lost cause regardless even if I get esim to show up in the settings. Although I may be incorrect there. I cant remember if my 12R did or I used some other method.
Once you go esim you see it is a gamechanger, you can sign up for new phone plans in seconds without moving from your chair. As well as run multiple sims on the same phone although I dont do that.
What is a 12r?
wondering if i got a slightly different model or firmware than others. fw says it's fully up to date
you dont have to put any iphone imei in just select iphone se 1st gen, carrier verizon, from the visible drop down menu no imei needed
their (moto) focus is budget phones.
this is arguably flagship level specs.
which they have not updated since 2023.

yeah i just didnt want to wait for sim especially since my nieces bday is thursday and i'd like it set up by then. given visible only mentions 3-5 physical sim card delivery i might be out of luck.

Looks like this is an oversea company and is roaming on T-Mobile in my area. The RedteaGO SIM shows up under "Mobile network". But the eSIM is still hidden in About phone/SIM status.

You seem very knowledgeable and wanted to ask about the SIM card. When I go to activate the phone I need the IMEI and SIM card number. Does the card need to be inserted into the phone to activate it online. Asking because I might not have access to the phone. Thanks
