Damn it, I bought an 11-inch US cellular iPad and it overturned. Now I can't activate 3HK ESIM. What should I do?

Says ESIM card is not supported
Do you have to fly to Hong Kong to activate it? The mainland network is already a Hong Kong node

Anonymous10207 Jan 5, 2025I also bought the US version of iPad Pro 13 202 4 cellular version. After unpacking and activating it, I turned it on and found that there was ATT Prepaid in the eSIM CTM eSIM is added and all works normally I have bought several generations of American iPad Pro in the past few years There was a Verizon physical card in December 9, 2021. No matter how earlier there was an ATT physical card, it was directly inserted into the China Unicom physical card and used without any problem After you get it, pay attention to find out whether its lock is really not activated. Even if it does, it restricts other American cards The price of the US version is so good. The top version is 13 202 4 National Bank 20799. The US version is only 12600

Anonymous9844 Jan 5, 2025The water is too deep. You must only buy the original stuff. I guess if the poster bought it second-hand. If you are purchasing used, please return the item. If it is original and unopened, you can ask Apple after-sales service to find out. Also, is the prompt saying: "This device does not support esim, please contact the operator" or something?

Anonymous4419 Jan 5, 2025@ Anonymous10207 Is it convenient to disclose the purchase channel?

Anonymous10910 Jan 5, 2025It can't be a revised machine? I have seen an iPad9 regulatory machine from an American company that can insert cards and has eid, which is esim function. I don't understand it.

Anonymous8449 Jan 5, 2025US version of cellular models? If you want the normal version, the price you need to spend is similar to that of the Bank of China or even more expensive. If the price you buy is very cheap, it is the kind of contract machine that does not pay the balance payment, and it will definitely not be able to use esim. It has been blacklisted long ago You can refer to my previous answer https://v2ex.com/t/1095351 # reply30 https://i.imgur.com/Fg2Novh.jpeg

Anonymous2049 Jan 5, 2025The device is hacked, and the US version is a huge pit, so it is recommended to resell.. Don't mess with the seller, he doesn't know anyone needs esim

Poster Jan 5, 2025@ Anonymous453 What does it mean when IMEI is blocked, a brand new unactivated product
-
Poster Jan 5, 2025@ Anonymous8449 I am brand new unactivated original

Anonymous769 Jan 5, 2025If you can't add esim, it's usually not unlocked or blacklisted
-
Anonymous453 Jan 5, 2025@ Poster activation does not affect the blacklist, which means that the IMEI is in the GSM blacklist. Depending on where the machine is bought, Apple Store is fine; But other retail stores in the United States, especially operators, can make restrictions

Anonymous453 Jan 5, 2025Generally, Taobao sellers will tell you that you can't use honeycomb for this kind of machine. If you don't tell you this, then return it quickly

Anonymous4892 Jan 5, 2025Why can the American version of the machine be cheap after shipping + several hands in the middle? Basically, they all sign with the operator. After the machine is trashed out at 0 fee, you won't pay. After the arrears, the operator will blacklist the imei of the device.

Anonymous8449 Jan 6, 2025@ Poster brand new unactivated intact so what? You can find out the source by checking gsx This is the kind that the operator contract machine pays in installments and then owes 0 yuan to buy it It is indeed brand new, unopened, unactivated, but esim is locked
