Razr Xfinity Compatibility Solution

I've seen many posts about this, so I'm sharing an easy solution.

Problem: If you bought your Razr from elsewhere rather than straight from Xfinity, their IMEI checker will reject it saying the phone is not compatible. This is not true. It just means that your phone's IMEI is not in their databse. The phone is obviously compatible as they sell it.

Here's how I worked around it.

Step 1: Find a compatible IMEI of a phone that doesn't support esim (use your friend's/family's or free IMEI generators online). I used an IMEI of iPhone X.

Step 2: Use that IMEI to get passed the compatibility check. You can choose new # or transfer (doesn't matter). Once done, it'll show that they are shipping you a pSim.

Step 3: Insert the pSim into your Razr and activate it via Xfinity app. An enclosed card will tell you to scan a QR code with a different device. Ignore that.

That's it. Pretty easy.
