Ran setup twice- borked SIM activation?

Tachyon

Hello,

As the title says I ran setup twice, why you may ask? I did a goof.
The web says activating sim, has been for awhile now.
What should I do?

Thanks for the support.

Hey raider007!

Welcome to the forums and don't worry! You can run setup 100 times and it should work just as well each time :slight_smile:

Some questions to help debug!

  • Which country did you select?
  • Could you run this command after booting from doing a 3rd setup and send to nick@particle.io? It will wipe your device again, but we need to capture the clean boot. this will dump the log to log.txt and you can pull the file via ADB or ssh it out etc...

journalctl -u particle-tachyon-rild --no-pager >> log.txt

  • can you run "particle-tachyon-ril-ctl esim status" and dump the output here?

  • can you run "particle-tachyon-rild sim" and dump the output here?

It can take a while to download and activate the eSIM, but its possible there is something blocking the eSIM as well, so we'd love to take a look!

I've put these onto the docs for debugging as well!

Thanks

Nick

Thanks raider007!

Good news - the eSIM is installed and active. We'll look first thing tomorrow at the SIM logs and check what is going on here.

Which country did you select or are located in?

Thanks!

Nick.

Awesome!
I have selected NA or United States when setting up the tachyon.
