Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Methods and apparatuses that select initial subscriber information module (SIM) profile via a mobile device are described. Multiple SIM profiles including a first SIM profile and a second SIM profile can be stored on a SIM card for the mobile device. The mobile device may attempt to connect to a first network via the first SIM profile. In response to a failure to connect to the first network according to the first SIM profile, the mobile device can access the second SIM profile to connect to a second network according to the second SIM profile. In an embodiment, this logic continues to the next SIM profiles stored on the SIM card for the mobile device until it is successfully connected to a network.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A method for initial subscriber information module (SIM) profile selection, comprising: accessing, by a mobile device, a first SIM profile stored on a SIM card for the mobile device; attempting, by a mobile device, to connect to a first network according to the first SIM profile; in response to the attempting to connect to the first device failing, accessing, by the mobile device, a second SIM profile stored on the SIM card for the mobile device; and attempting, by the mobile device, to connect to a second network according to the second SIM profile. 2 . A mobile device comprising: a processor; a non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing programming for execution by the processor; and a subscriber information module (SIM) card operatively coupled to the processor, the SIM card storing multiple SIM profiles for different network service providers.
