A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a third party subscription management of end device profiles service is provided. The service may include obtaining a profile for a card of an end device from a third party device in which the profile includes a temporary element. For example, the temporary element may be a temporary keyset or a temporary USIM. During initial connectivity and activation with a core network, the card logic may obtain and update the profile with a permanent element for registration and activation procedures with the core network. In this way, security exposure with a third party device relating to a profile may be eliminated or minimized.

Method and system for third party subscription management of end device profiles

A user equipment (UE), comprising at least one processor may be configured to transmit a first attach request to a first wireless network based on a first universal subscriber identity module (USIM). The UE may receive a rejection from the first wireless network and may switch from the first USIM to a second USIM based on the rejection. The UE may transmit a second attach request to the first wireless network based on the second USIM.

Systems and methods for supporting multiple universal subscriber identity modules

A user equipment (UE) may store a default user equipment route selection policy (URSP) and may receive, from a fourth-generation (4G) core network, a default protocol configuration option (PCO) value for a default network slice of the 4G core network. The UE may utilize the default network slice based on the default URSP and the default PCO value and may receive a request to update the default URSP with a new URSP associated with a new network slice of the 4G core network. The UE may update the default URSP with the new URSP to generate an updated URSP and may receive, from the 4G core network, a new PCO value for the new network slice of the 4G core network. The UE may utilize the default network slice and the new network slice based on the updated URSP, the default PCO value, and the new PCO value.

Systems and methods for updating a policy of a user equipment in fourth-generation network coverage

A device includes a processor that may be configured to obtain a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) identifier (ID) from a signal broadcast by a network and determine whether the obtained PLMN ID is an original preferred PLMN ID of the device. When the processor determines that the obtained PLMN ID is the original preferred PLMN ID, the processor may attempt to attach to the network over a wireless link. When the attempt to attach to the network fails, the processor may rewrite, in a list of PLMN IDs, a non-preferred PLMN ID as a new preferred PLMN ID.
