The Motorola Razr 2019 is a foldable Android phone that was commonly sold as an eSIM-first, often eSIM-only, device. For travelers, that makes it a good fit for installing an iRoamly travel eSIM before departure, as long as the phone is unlocked and the carrier or regional software build supports adding an eSIM profile.
This guide assumes a Motorola Razr 2019 running Motorola's near-stock Android 10-style settings flow. The main path used here is Settings > Network & Internet > Mobile Network > Advanced > Carrier > Add Carrier. On some newer Android builds or carrier variants, similar screens may appear as SIMs, Add SIM, or Download a SIM instead.
You will learn both setup methods: scanning the iRoamly QR code and entering the activation details manually. QR setup is usually faster, while manual entry is useful when the QR code is on the same phone, the camera cannot scan it, or the email/account page gives you the activation details as text.
Before You Set Up Your iRoamly eSIM
Connect the Motorola Razr 2019 to stable Wi-Fi before starting. eSIM download can fail on a weak connection.
Make sure the phone is unlocked and supports eSIM on your carrier or regional firmware. Some carrier builds may hide the eSIM menu.
Keep your iRoamly QR code or manual activation details ready on another screen or printed page.
Do not delete an installed iRoamly eSIM unless iRoamly support tells you to. Many travel eSIM profiles cannot simply be reinstalled after deletion.
Install the eSIM 1-2 days before travel when possible, but check your plan details first. iRoamly eSIM validity starts from activation, and the exact activation trigger can depend on the plan or destination.
iRoamly travel eSIM plans may be data-only. Voice calls and SMS availability varies by plan, so check the specific plan details before relying on calls or texts.
Method 1: Install eSIM by Scanning a QR Code
1. Open Settings on the Motorola Razr 2019 and tap Network & Internet.
You should see the main network settings page with mobile, Wi-Fi, and connectivity options.
2. Tap Mobile Network.
The phone should open the mobile network settings area where cellular and carrier options are managed.
3. Tap Advanced, then tap Carrier.
You should see the carrier setup area. If your software shows SIMs instead, open that screen and look for Add SIM or Download a SIM instead.
4. Tap Add Carrier.
The phone should begin the carrier setup flow for adding a new eSIM profile.
5. Tap Next on the carrier setup screen.
The Motorola Razr should open the QR scanner for downloading an eSIM.
6. Scan the iRoamly QR code.
Keep the QR code inside the scanner frame until the phone recognizes it. Use a printed QR code or show the QR code on another device.
7. Review the detected iRoamly eSIM profile and tap Download or Activate.
The phone should download the eSIM profile. Stay on Wi-Fi and keep the Razr open until the process finishes.
8. Tap Done after the eSIM is added.
The iRoamly eSIM should now appear in the Motorola Razr mobile network or carrier settings.
Method 2: Install eSIM Manually
1. Open Settings and tap Network & Internet.
This is the same starting screen used for QR setup, but the manual path will use typed activation details instead of the camera.
2. Tap Mobile Network.
The Razr should open the mobile network settings page.
3. Tap Advanced, then tap Carrier.
Open the same carrier setup area used for QR code installation.
4. Tap Add Carrier.
The carrier setup flow should start.
5. Tap Next to reach the QR scanner, then choose Need help? or Enter code manually.
On Motorola's stock-Android-style setup flow, manual entry is usually reached from the QR scanner screen rather than from the first carrier page.
6. Enter the iRoamly manual activation information and tap Continue.
For this Android setup style, the manual screen commonly accepts one complete activation code string, often in an LPA:1$SM-DP+ADDRESS$ACTIVATION-CODE format. If iRoamly shows the SM-DP+ Address and Activation Code separately, combine or enter them exactly as iRoamly provides for Android manual setup. Leave any confirmation code blank unless iRoamly provides one.
7. Review the detected iRoamly eSIM profile and tap Download or Activate.
The phone should download the eSIM profile over Wi-Fi.
8. Tap Done when installation finishes.
The iRoamly eSIM should be stored on the phone and ready for confirmation.
How to Confirm Your iRoamly eSIM Is Installed
1. Open Settings > Network & Internet > Mobile Network > Advanced > Carrier.
You should see the installed iRoamly eSIM or a newly added downloaded SIM profile in the carrier area. On some builds, it may appear under SIMs or Mobile Network instead.
2. Tap the iRoamly eSIM profile and check that the line is turned on.
The profile should show an enabled state. If the plan includes only data, do not expect phone-call or SMS settings to prove the plan is active.
3. Watch for a mobile signal indicator after the eSIM connects to a supported network.
If you are not yet in the destination country, the eSIM may stay pending or show no service until arrival.
Configure eSIM for Mobile Data
1. Open Settings > Network & Internet > Mobile Network, then select the iRoamly eSIM profile.
The eSIM profile settings should open, showing mobile data and roaming options.
2. Turn on Mobile data for the iRoamly eSIM.
The Razr should use the iRoamly profile for cellular data when the plan is active and a supported network is available.
3. Turn on Roaming if your iRoamly destination plan requires data roaming.
Many travel eSIMs use roaming partner networks. Keep roaming off for other SIM profiles unless you want them to use roaming data.
4. Open Data usage or the preferred data-line setting and make sure iRoamly is selected for mobile data.
This helps prevent the phone from falling back to another SIM or carrier profile for travel data.
Troubleshooting
If Add Carrier is missing, update the Motorola Razr 2019 software, restart the phone, and confirm the device is unlocked. Some regional or carrier builds may not expose eSIM setup.
If the QR code does not scan, increase screen brightness on the second device, clean the Razr camera area, or use manual entry instead.
If the QR code says it has already been used, do not delete the eSIM and retry repeatedly. Contact iRoamly support because many eSIM QR codes are single-use.
If manual activation fails, check every character in the activation code. Do not add spaces, and use the exact Android manual-entry format shown by iRoamly.
If the iRoamly eSIM installs but has no data, confirm Mobile data is on for the iRoamly profile and enable Roaming if the destination plan requires it.
If activation stays pending, wait until you are in the covered destination network area, then restart the phone and check the profile again.
If calls or SMS do not work, check the plan details. Many iRoamly travel eSIM plans are for mobile data and may not include voice or text service.
Conclusion
With everything set up in advance, your Motorola Razr 2019 is prepared to use iRoamly travel data as soon as your plan is active and a supported network is available. Taking care of the installation before your trip can reduce last-minute setup and make it easier to stay connected from the moment you arrive.
To keep your experience as smooth as possible, avoid deleting the eSIM profile, keep your activation details available, and verify your plan information before departure. These small steps can help you save time and minimize common connectivity problems during your travels.
