How to Install eSIM on Samsung Galaxy A54 5G

As eSIM technology becomes more common, clear esim instructions are essential for a smooth setup. In this guide, you’ll learn what is esim and how it works on modern devices. An eSIM is a digital SIM embedded in your phone, allowing plan activation without a physical card. This setup reduces lost SIM trays and simplifies carrier switching.

Next, we cover how to install esim on your Samsung Galaxy A54 5G running Android 13 with One UI. Whether switching carriers or adding a travel plan, these concise steps will get you connected in minutes.

What You’ll Need

Before you begin the installation process, please gather the following essentials to avoid interruptions. You will need a stable internet connection to download the eSIM profile, the QR code or activation code provided by your network operator, and your Samsung or Google account credentials in case the system prompts for identity verification during setup.

  • Active internet connection (Wi‑Fi or mobile data)
  • Carrier‑provided QR code or manual activation code
  • Samsung or Google account credentials (if prompted)

Step-by-Step Installation

Follow these model‑specific steps on your Samsung Galaxy A54 5G, which runs Android 13 with Samsung’s One UI 5 interface. The menus and labels may vary slightly depending on firmware versions and carrier customizations, but the process remains largely consistent.

  • Open Settings.
  • Tap Connections > SIM card manager (or “SIM cards & mobile networks”).
  • Tap Add mobile plan.
  • Select Scan QR code to capture the carrier code.
  • Or choose Enter code manually to input details.
  • Tap Download to install the eSIM profile.
  • Label your new plan (e.g., “Primary” or “Travel”) and tap Done.
  • Set the profile as default for calls or data under Active plans.

After installation, you can adjust advanced settings such as preferred network type and roaming options within the SIM card manager menu.

Common Troubleshooting Tips

If you encounter issues during setup or activation, these troubleshooting tips address the most common errors. They cover missing menu items, QR code scanning problems, and activation failures that new eSIM users on the Galaxy A54 5G may see.

  • If “Add mobile plan” is not visible, update One UI via Settings > Software update, then restart your phone.
  • If QR code scanning does not register, clean your camera lens or use the manual code entry option.
  • If the activation process fails, verify that your cellular service plan supports eSIM technology.
  • Clear data for the SIM card manager: go to Settings > Apps > SIM card manager > Storage > Clear data, then retry.
  • Some firmware builds display “SIM cards & mobile networks” instead of “SIM card manager”—check both menus if you do not see the expected option.
