Carrier lock only on esim
Hi everyone.
I'm currently facing an issue with a second handed Pixel 9 Pro XL.
I bought the device through ebay as an unlocked device, I've been using this with a physical sim, but recently I noticed that adding an esim, the phone asks for a Tmobile one and refuses to take the Saily one (I was going to use it for a trip).
Physical sim works with all my local carriers (not located in the US), Is it even possible to only the Esim to be carrier locked, or could be something else? Is there any way to make the Esim work besides contacting tmobile (as I'm not the original owner).
Additional notes - OEM unlock is available
- I have ebay proof of purchase, and know for good the phone is not stolen (customs of my country double checked that)
- I've already tried re-flashing it and even custom ROM (Graphene OS), and it didn't work, the only difference is in the stock rom shows "Scan QR from T-Mobile" while in GOS shows "Scan QR from carrier"
Thanks for your help!
