9esim V3 is released today

admin avatar

The 9esim V3 was officially launched at 12:00 London time.

The new 9esim still uses a 2M chip, with an actual storage capacity of approximately 1.5M.

It currently remains the holder of the record for the largest capacity of consumer – grade removable eUICC.

Compared with the 9esim V2, the 9esim V3 is equipped with the new KG COS system and supports the STK menu.

This means that Apple users can also switch cards through the STK menu without an app.

Thanks to the integrated chip design, the 9esim V3 has a fast STK response speed and greatly enhanced compatibility.

Consumers can purchase it through ours website or authorized dealerships.

    So why are you still selling V2 in the store and not making V3 available? It’s been almost a month!

      Hello sir! Even though we have been release the V3 more than one month but we still receive V2 orders. May customer have some special considerations which we are not known. It is confused us also.

    Never mind I just realized it is in the store, I didn’t see it. Sorry! Look forward to getting mine, I’ve read it’s the best eSIM adapter available!

    Hi. I put your V3 card into my oldtimer (2010] candy bar Nokia 2710. I could switch between eSims while the phone was running. Well done!

      Yes, that’s just what we are working for!

    Do you know the EID range for 9esim V3?

    I know the docomo line in Japan requires an EID for eSIM registration.
    Does 9esim V3 support EID specified registration?

      Lin

      You can view the EID on the card or read it through our compatible APP. EID registration is the operator’s behavior. You can submit your EID to the corresponding operator for registration.

        Sorry, NTT DoCoMo’s eSIM accepts only the following EIDs and does not seem to work.

          This is a very bad behavior that hinders the development of the industry, and a complaint should be filed with the Japan Communications Administration. Thank you very much for your feedback, and we will also submit a feedback report to GSMA.

            According to the Japanese domestic forum, eSTK.me SIM cards are compatible with NTT DoCoMo’s EID (89049032), but it seems that it is impossible to install a profile on an eSIM card because it will be judged as a physical SIM.

            https:// king. mineo. jp/ reports/ 282802

            In Japan, there have been many cases of SIM swapping, in which a cell phone is MNP’d to another person without permission and becomes unusable. In particular, NTT DoCoMo, the largest carrier in Japan, seems to have adopted the method of matching the corresponding EID to strengthen security.

            Thank you very much for your information.
            According to what we have learned so far, the competitor you mentioned is because they use Apple disassembled components, and Apple’s eUICC supplier is G+D, so their product EID is (89049032). We have also ordered some products from G+D, but users reported that there were some problems with their use, so we stopped using them later. The product of another competitor mentioned in your link is supplied by ECP. From the description of the article, it should be “compatible” with the Japanese operator network.
            The EID number segment is defined in the GSMA specification (SGP.29) as only used to identify its EUM, and there is no better or worse compatibility. In addition, we believe that the operator’s behavior of blocking eUICC based on EID is a bad decision that does not consider user experience.

    I watched a video explanation by a Chinese person about several competing products as shown on this web site, and I also understood why estk.me’s products are highly compatible with Apple products.

    Unfortunately, in Japan, only estk.me’s products can be used by NTT DoCoMo due to EID restrictions, but there are many explanations recommending their products because they seem to be highly compatible with Apple products for eSIM rewriting.

    Do you have any plans to sell new products with higher compatibility for Apple products in the future?

      We known that guy you mentioned. Our V1 are the chip from G+D, which EID starts with 89049032. But we still don’t think this is a compatibility issue, it’s a user experience issue caused by lazy governance actions taken by these operators. Of course, what you mentioned is a current reality, which may affect Japanese users who originally liked our products. Thank you again for your feedback! We will seriously consider how to solve this problem.

        Other than NTT DOCOMO’s EID regulations and compatibility issues with Apple products, is it possible to have them adopt dual active eSIM products such as DSDS, DSDV, and DSDA that are used in mobile handsets?

        1. Lin avatar
          Lin

          I do not got your idea completely. DSDS, DSDA or DSDV is the capability of device, not the SIM.

            Okay, so you’re saying it’s impossible to achieve this with a product SIM and an app or other program.

        Additional report, I purchased this item and it seems that the EID is 89033023 which is different from estk.me and corresponds to NTT docomo’s designated EID.

            The eSIM rewriting of Eiotclub products was tested.

            As a result, we have confirmed that the 9eSIM Android app works when the FCNT arrows We2 Plus M06 (12GB/256GB) is connected to the ESTKme-RED smart card reader via USB Type C cable.

            As the ARA-M hash value is unknown, the 9eSIM Android app cannot be used with the SIM inserted in the device at this time, but the card reader can be We are pleased to report that we have confirmed that it can be used with the card reader.
            For this test, we used a test eSIM profile from this website.

            Sorry for the late reply! Thank you for your test feedback! The card reader-based way to write or manage such cards is the most compatible way. ARA-M is a special way to operate cards under the Android system. It has some limitations, but the advantage is that you don’t need to remove the card and don’t need to use additional card reader hardware.

    May I know what KG COS stands for?

    1. Lin avatar
      Lin

      Sorry, it is mostly a typo.KG is the abbreviation of a factory. And COS is the abbreviation of Card Operating System.

    Hi, is there any fixed date for the V3 shipment? Because the estimation just moved to April 20th from 15th (today)

      We are very sorry for the trouble! We are currently going through customs clearance procedures (2025-2-21 11:21) and are expected to be shipped today or tomorrow.

    Is automatic eSIM profile installation with carrier activation not available for physical eSIM cards?

    The eSIM profile is installed automatically without the use of a QR code or activation code, so some carriers only allow installation for eSIMs with a built-in device

    1. Lin avatar
      Lin

      Hello! Under the current design framework of GSMA (SGP.22), all eSIM profiles must be actively downloaded by the device. It may be in various forms. For example, you mentioned that it may not require a QR code, but it may be because the operator has built its own LPA into the device, so it will not explicitly download a profile through a QR code. The QR code is essentially just an address. If you can get the activation code of the operator’s profile, the physical eSIM can also download the operator’s profile.
      The operating strategy of some operators tends to install their profiles on devices with built-in eUICC, so that users are not easily lost or a single profile is used by multiple devices, etc. The operator’s strategy may have many self-interest considerations, but these are not the differences between physical eSIM cards and patch-type eUICCs. They are essentially the same, comply with the same technical specifications, and use the same technical solutions. The only difference is the appearance.

      1. y.h avatar

        For example, this eSIM provider does not use a QR code or activation code, and the app is automatically installed only on devices with built-in eSIMs when installing the app, but in that case, is there a way to install it on a physical eSIM?

          You can only ask your supplier to provide the activation code. Any information obtained in an abnormal way is improper.

          1. y.h avatar
            y.h

            I understand. As the number of eSIM-only devices is on the rise, I am concerned that more operators will be able to simplify the process and automatically install eSIM profiles, but there’s nothing we can do about it.

          2. Lin avatar
            Lin

            I understand you too, there are many ‘hack’ ways to obtains the activation code, as long as it is based on the GSMA specification framwork.
