Reinstalling an eSIM after resetting a phone is not always possible with the original QR code. Activation credentials may be single-use, and restoring apps does not necessarily restore the mobile profile.
First check whether the eSIM still appears in mobile settings.
NoveSIM is data-only; preserve all available order details.
Quick answer: Do not repeatedly scan the old QR code. Confirm compatibility, connect to private Wi-Fi and contact NoveSIM Support to learn whether the plan can be restored or requires replacement credentials.
