Anyone tried using eSIM from vivifi? I know not supported but P7 they support

To share my experience, I had the Pixel Fold and I called up M1 to ask whether Pixel Fold is supported, I was told by M1 customer service Pixel Fold is not a supported device on their list.

I went ahead to add in M1 esim, it works and I just brushed off what I was told by M1 about my device not being supported. Come the day I was supposed to sell my Pixel Fold, I could not delete the esim regardless of all methods I could find online. In the end, I was advised by the phone shop taking in my device to do a factory reset. I was worried if I did not delete the esim before I factory reset the device, I won't be able to use the esim on my new phone. But no choice, I initiated factory reset and the phone prompted me to delete the esim, thankfully managed to delete the esim before handing over my phone.

So I would suggest to be careful about adding esim and decided not to use esim anymore.

I think you are supposed to use the M1+ app to transfer your esim to your new phone, then factory reset it since your are selling it off?

Nope cannot. Nothing worked except factory reset.

You need to delete the esim profile from your old phone before you can scan the QR code inside your M1+ app on your new phone.

Lesson learnt for me for using esim. Each time you delete your esim when you wanna sell your phone, the Telco will charge $5.35 ( for m1) for each esim issued after that. I got so fed up, I went down to the store and asked for a physical sim instead. Save the hassle

In a comment on an Issue Tracker, Google directly confirmed that a fix is incoming for this issue in a “future” Android update. That doesn’t tell us much regarding when the fix will arrive, as it could mean a monthly security patch or a bigger update, like QPR1.

Marked as fixed. The issue has been fixed and it will become available in a future Android release. Please keep an eye on the release notes

How does that work? The live translation isn't fast enough to keep up.

Pause and use Translate app.

Pause and use Translate app.

Any difference between using the translate app's camera mode and using Google lens?

About the same, Translate can speak the sentence out.
Lens still need to send the sentence to Translate.

Does Clear Calling work? It's disabled by default.

Should be bah, since it's a toggle we can on and off means the function is available.
