A secure element () has a local store of file property data (). A method of preparing a script to send to the secure element () to remotely provision a profile () at the secure element includes preparing the script such that the script lacks a command to create a file if the local store of file property data () at the secure element includes file property data which can be used to locally create that file. A script may include an entry of reduced length which refers to the file to be locally created, such as a SELECT FILE command and an identifier of the file.

A method of managing profiles in a secure element where the secure element includes an active first profile associated with a first communication network and a second profile associated with a second communication network. The method includes deactivating the first profile and activating the second profile, where the deactivation and the activation are implemented following detection of a failure during a local verification pertaining to the first profile for the use of this the first profile. A local verification may be a verification in the secure element of the authorization of access of a user to the first profile, for example three failures of PIN or PUK code or of biometric authentication data, the local verification being performed in the secure element, and the failure being relative to a security failure of the first profile or to an operating failure of the first profile.

The disclosure relates to the notification of an SM-SR subscription management server by an eUICC card or an eSE element. The card includes, in local memory, at least one short number (or 'short code'), and more generally an address identifier, unique to a mobile-phone operator, wherein the number is associated with an operator subscriber profile within the secure card. The card is configured to retrieve, from the local memory, a short code associated with a subscriber profile in use to send, using the retrieved short code, a card status notification to the SM-SR server. In the absence of a short code, the card uses a unique international telephone number as the recipient of the notification.

An example of an emergency call system includes a device for triggering an emergency call and a communications device having a secure element. In various implementations, the secure element includes at least two profiles, one of which is an emergency profile; and a receiver that receives, over a local communications channel, an event issued by the device for triggering an emergency call. The communications device may also include means for activating the emergency profile, which enables emergency calls to be made in a communications network if the emergency profile is not already active. The communications device may also include means for calling an emergency number in the communications network in order to make the emergency call.
