The Galaxy XCover7 Pro is built for travel days that are not always gentle: airport Wi-Fi, field work, maps, messaging apps, and a data connection that needs to be ready before you leave the hotel. If you are using an iRoamly travel eSIM on this Samsung phone, the setup lives in One UI under Settings > Connections > SIM manager > Add eSIM.
This guide covers both installation routes. The QR code method is fastest when you can show the iRoamly QR code on another screen or printout. Manual entry is the fallback when the QR code will not scan, when you are setting up from the same phone, or when iRoamly gives you activation details instead of a scannable code.
On this Samsung flow, manual setup uses one Activation code field. If iRoamly gives you an SM-DP+ Address and an Activation Code separately, enter them as a complete activation-code string in the format shown in the manual section.
Preparations Before Setting Up iRomly eSIM
Connect the Galaxy XCover7 Pro to stable Wi-Fi before downloading the eSIM.
Confirm your phone supports eSIM in your region and is not locked to a carrier that blocks adding travel eSIMs.
Keep your iRoamly QR code or manual activation details open on another device, printed, or saved where you can read them.
Install the eSIM 1-2 days before travel if the iRoamly plan allows it, but do not start using the travel line until you are ready for the plan period.
iRoamly eSIM validity starts from activation; current iRoamly plan pages commonly define this as the eSIM connecting to a supported network. Check your specific destination plan before installing.
iRoamly travel eSIM plans may not include voice calls or SMS. Voice/SMS availability varies by plan, so check the plan details before relying on either service.
Do not delete the eSIM after installation unless iRoamly support tells you to. Many travel eSIMs cannot simply be reinstalled after removal.
Method 1: Install the iRoamly eSIM by Scanning a QR Code
Open Settings, then tap Connections. You should see the same Samsung connection settings page used for the QR method.
Tap SIM manager. The phone should show your physical SIM and the eSIM area.
Tap Add eSIM. The phone should open the Samsung eSIM setup page.
On the Add eSIM screen, tap Scan QR code. The Galaxy XCover7 Pro should open the eSIM QR scanner.
Point the camera at the iRoamly QR code. Keep the code inside the scanner frame until the phone recognizes the eSIM profile.
Review the profile details, then tap Add. The phone should begin downloading and adding the iRoamly travel eSIM.
Wait for the download to finish. If Samsung asks you to restart the phone or confirm the new plan, follow the on-screen prompt before changing data settings.
Method 2: Install the iRoamly eSIM by Manual Entry
Open Settings, then tap Connections. You should see the same Samsung connection settings page used for the QR method.
Tap SIM manager. The phone should show your physical SIM and the eSIM area.
Tap Add eSIM. The phone should open the Samsung eSIM setup page.
Tap Scan QR code, then tap Enter activation code at the bottom of the scanner screen. Samsung uses this route even when you plan to type the eSIM details manually.
Tap the Activation code field and enter the full iRoamly activation-code string, then tap Done. If iRoamly gives you separate details, combine them as LPA:1$SM-DP+ Address$Activation Code; if a confirmation code is provided, follow iRoamly's exact format in your order page or support email.
Review the iRoamly eSIM details, then tap Add. The phone should download and add the iRoamly travel eSIM profile.
Wait for the download to complete. If the phone shows a restart or setup prompt, complete it before trying to use travel data.
How to Confirm the iRoamly eSIM Was Installed
Go to Settings > Connections > SIM manager and look under eSIMs for iRoamly Travel eSIM. Turn the iRoamly eSIM switch on if it is off.
Check the Preferred SIMs section and confirm that Mobile data can be set to iRoamly Travel eSIM. This proves the eSIM is available for data selection.
Set Up the iRoamly eSIM for Travel Data
In SIM manager, tap Mobile data, then select iRoamly Travel eSIM. Your Galaxy XCover7 Pro should route mobile data through the iRoamly line.
Open Settings > Connections > Mobile networks, choose iRoamly Travel eSIM if a SIM selector appears, then turn on Data roaming if your iRoamly destination plan requires roaming.
Return to SIM manager and review Data switching. Leave automatic switching off if you want to prevent the phone from unexpectedly using your primary SIM for travel data.
Troubleshooting
If Add eSIM is missing, update One UI, confirm the phone has an EID, check whether your regional or carrier variant supports eSIM, and make sure the phone is unlocked.
If the QR code does not scan, brighten the other screen, enlarge the code, clean the camera lens, or use Enter activation code instead.
If Samsung says the QR code was already used, do not delete the eSIM and try again. Contact iRoamly support because many eSIM QR codes are single-use.
If the eSIM installs but data does not work, select iRoamly Travel eSIM for Mobile data, enable Data roaming, restart the phone, and confirm your iRoamly plan covers the country you are in.
If activation stays pending, keep Wi-Fi on, wait a few minutes, and try again after arriving in the covered destination if the plan activates on network connection.
If you cannot make calls or send SMS, check the iRoamly plan details. Many travel eSIMs are data-only, and voice/SMS support varies by plan.
If you are worried about reinstalling, disable the iRoamly eSIM switch instead of removing the eSIM. Remove it only when the trip is over or iRoamly support tells you to.
Conclusion
For the Galaxy XCover7 Pro, the QR code method is the cleanest path when the iRoamly code is available on another screen. Manual entry is just as useful when scanning fails, but Samsung expects one complete Activation code string rather than separate fields on the phone.
After installation, confirm that iRoamly Travel eSIM appears in SIM manager, choose it for Mobile data, turn on Data roaming when the destination plan needs it, and check the iRoamly plan page so you know whether validity starts on supported-network connection and whether voice or SMS is included.
