Google Fi is a telecommunication service meant exclusively for the users in the US providing services like calls, SMS and mobile broadband using cellular networks and WiFi.
Moreover, Google Fi uses network carriers operated by Sprint, T-Mobile, and US Cellular. In fact, you can get a full-fledged plan that fits your data usage.
However, in a recent development, going by the reports by several Google Fi users, they cannot seem to get themselves signed into the Google Fi network.
Several users on different Google Pixel phones have reported being suffering from this same issue. In fact, this issue has surfaced reportedly due to the T-Mobile outage. You can check out some of the user’s reports below:

In fact, when we went ahead and checked for any T-Mobile outage on the Downdetector website, it clearly showed that there was indeed a spike around 7:20 PM in the US.
And users have also reported that even though the outage is almost fixed, there are still reports about it.
if you are also among those Google Fi users who are still facing this issue even after the outage, then there are a few possible workarounds that you can try to get over Google Fi sign-in issue.
Possible Workarounds
- You can simply try restarting your device. This seems to fix the issue for most of the users.
- You need to dial * # * # FIXME # * # * after a reboot. This seems to have fixed the issue for man users.
- Or you can download FiSwitch application and switch over to Sprint.
Let us know in the comments below which one of the above-mentioned workarounds did the trick for you.
