No roaming to activate Signal

I broke my phone and had to revive my old Cat S22, but I couldn't reactivate Signal: here in Canada I wouldn't receive the activation SMS sent to my French SIM. Turns out that roaming needs to be deactivated: Settings > Mobile Network > Roaming. I also disconnect the 4G for good measure, connected to WiFi and tried to activate my Signal account again. This time, it worked !
