A hardware-capability update method for a portable device with at least first and second SIM cards is provided. The method includes detecting whether a hardware capability for a first SIM card has to be responded to a requesting terminal; determining whether the hardware capability for the first SIM card can be responded immediately; transmitting the information about hardware capability to the requesting terminal when the hardware capability for the first SIM card can be responded immediately; and storing the information about pending updated hardware capability when the hardware capability for the first SIM card cannot be responded immediately.

Hardware-capability update method for a portable device with multiple SIM cards

A method for controlling radio links in a cellular communication system. The method comprises: receiving an active set update message from the system controller via at least one of the first radio link and the second radio link at the first user equipment to direct the first user equipment to terminate the first radio link, determining a communication status of the first radio link according to a current quality of the first radio link and a current quality of the second radio link after receiving the active set update message, and managing the first radio link and the second radio link according to the communication status.

Methods for controlling radio links in a cellular communication system

The invention discloses a method for coordinating protocol stack entities to share a single radio resource, executed by a processor of a mobile station, including the step of: after a first protocol stack entity for a first subscriber identity card enters a TALKING mode or enables a dial-up service, forcing a second protocol stack entity for a second subscriber identity card to release the radio resource or suspend utilization of the radio resource, and enabling the radio resource to be utilized to perform requisite operations or procedures of the TALKING mode or the dial-up service.

Method and system for coordinating protocol stack entities to share single radio resource

A method for sharing a mobility status in a mobile station with a first subscriber identity card and a second subscriber identity card is provided. The mobility status indicating the movement extent of the mobile station is obtained by the first subscriber identity card being currently camping on a first cell of a first network operator. Settings corresponding to a mobility-dependent procedure for the second subscriber identity card being currently failure to camp on any second cell of a second network operator are configured, thereby enabling the mobility-dependent procedure to be performed with consideration of the obtained mobility status.
