Esim safe to use?

  1. If I install eSim on my Brax 3 device is it going to be able to track me?
  2. Will I be able to un-install eSim software afterwards to get it back off the Brax 3 phone and use my local sim card?

A friend of mine is on Verzion and I use T-Mobile and the sms texting stopped working. I called and asked T-Mobile and they said Verzion has a block on send sise of sms messages. Verzion is saying they do not and are claiming I have to use Esim in order to use sms app’s with him now? Nothing has changed on his end or my end! Bills are paid and has same cell unlimited talk & text.

He has the last Pixel googled phone and we have been sms texting back and forth for over 6 months or more with out a problem.

I went back and put my sim in and older gooled phone and I was still un-able to receive his texts. He can see my texts, but I can not get his texts when he response back.

There are no blocks on the numbers on his device or mine.
The celler service is up and running and permission on the texting app are allowed to use when sms texting with this app on his and my device.

Has anyone else come across this issue? Does anyone know what I should do or have him do. Verzion won’t listen to him. He can’t afford to get another phone, so I am at a loss.

If Verzion is going to force all other carries to use eSim, I think this might lead to lawsuits.

Thanks for any help every, and have a great day/night.

First try the QKSMS app from the F-droid store.

The BraX3 uses OpenEUICC for eSIM. It’s open-source and privacy-respecting.

T-Mobile is stating that Verzion is using something called “Keyword Filtering on there end”!!! Is this what Rob has been saying all along about the companies monitoring us? How am we I to deal with this?

Spam blocker from Verzion we are now looking at, but my number is not on the BlackList on his phone. Ugh

Keyword filtering on what exactly ?

If you mean SMS then everyhtjng is monitored and stored, I don’t think they would drop a message due to the content. They just want to know.

You can’t avoid that, just use a private messaging channel.

A solution could be to use some cryptography adjusted for SMS so that you send garbage sequences of characters.
