Google Pixel 3 / Pixel 3 XL User Thread

I have a Pixel 3 XL purchased from Google and have no issue with eSim activation. Just sold my S10 5G and reactivated through the on screen menu without issues

Wait you never even get to login to your Sprint account? I don't think that's Sprint related then. This might be a silly question, but you're on wifi when you try to add the eSIM right?

Do you have a regular Sprint account? Or is it through an MVNO?

Yep... on regular sprint plan.  I tried it on my old phone which is no longer on my account, and I do get the login prompts.  Tried it on my activated phone, but got an error.  

Let's hope Pixel 4 works with eSIM out of the box.

Is anyone else having trouble w/ RCS on the 3XL? 

I activated my 3XL on sprint via eSim about 4 days ago, and the prompt within android messages is not showing as capable. 

I have VoLTE and Wifi calling enabled, but I don't think RCS should be affected by those....

I got the Pixel 4 XL activated via eSIM and RCS took a few hours longer to activate after LTE, 1x/3G, VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling were all working.  Have you tried checking again recently?

Thanks for the data point about your experience with the 4XL. 

I read this article which came out over the weekend and toggled it manually (though it could be broken by Google at any point, seems like an official/unsupported means of obtaining RCS)

After I followed those steps, it worked for me. With that few people have it.
