Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G not showing esim options

[Krugermj]

Hi,

I am not seeing the esim option under the sim card manager on my phone.

Anyone else experienced this?

My phone is on Android Ver.12 and One UI ver. 4.1

OK, the esim update rolled out to SA some time ago and is certainly supported by Vodacom. You have the correct firmware for Vodacom. From what I've read you need to ask them to set up an esim plan and I guess from there it can be provisioned for your device.
I suggest ringing Vodacom if you want an esim. I also read there are various charges they make so you may want to check those out.

I called them and they only give esims for Apple Watches and Galaxy Watches. They did not understand that I want to use an eSIM on the phone itself. ;-(

Reloaded the firmware with another version from SA. Still no luck. Will now try UK version.

Using different firmware won't make a difference as your carrier has to set up the esim so changing carrier is the only option.

Did it work I am planning to get STC eSIM wondering which phone would be better for esim without hassle

I just realised that the version I got from Korea (SM-N986N), only comes with 1 sim card 😞
Try searching online for the exact model, under "About Phone". Read the specs.
