Error "Operation Code: 9 / Error Code: 10014" on Google Pixel

OvoSIM Support Team · Updated May 2026

After activating your eSIM via QR code on a Google Pixel phone, you may see the following error message:

Couldn't activate service

"There's an issue with your SIM profile. To fix the issue, contact your carrier."

Operation Code: 9

Error Code: 10014


Solution

This error is caused by a known issue with how Google Pixel phones read eSIM QR codes. The fix is straightforward — instead of scanning the QR code, you need to activate the eSIM using the Manual Activation Code.

Easy fix — no new plan needed

You do not need to purchase a new plan. Simply use the Manual Activation Code included in your OvoSIM confirmation email to activate the same plan.
