Power conservation for devices is facilitated based on likelihood of power usage level. An example method can comprise determining, by a first device comprising a processor, that a second device is within a defined proximity of a third device, wherein the third device is determined to be operating in a mode according to a first power consumption operation that satisfies a defined condition, and wherein the operating in the mode according to the first power consumption operation is based on the third device being located at a defined location. The method can also comprise facilitating, by the first device, modification of the mode of the third device based on a determination of a likelihood of usage of a second power consumption operation by the third device. In various embodiments, the third device is configured to operate according to the power save mode or the extended discontinuous reception mode.

Facilitating power conservation for devices based on likelihood of power usage level

Centralized management of the Internet of Things resolves user difficulties. Connected devices may be associated with an owner's or user's electronic profile. The electronic profile may be represented as a graphical user interface (such as a webpage), thus allowing remote management of the connected devices. The owner or user may thus configure the electronic profile to define what electronic data is shared and with whom.

Personalized management of connected devices

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, embodiments that include accessing a group of user controlled mobile equipment access point names in response to the device detecting a user controlled mobile equipment access point name elementary file (EF_UMEAPN) stored in a memory of a universal integrated circuit card (UICC). An operator stores access point name information and the access point name information comprises the EF_UMEAPN. Further embodiments include configuring the device according to the group of user controlled mobile equipment access point names. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Systems, devices and methods for managing access point name information by operators and users on the SIM

Apparatus, methods and systems facilitating communications via a mobile internet-enabled connection interface are provided. One apparatus is configured to perform various operations, including performing a first type of security function associated with determining whether an information package is authorized to be received and downloaded to a device other than the apparatus, wherein the information package is associated with updating a functionality of the device; and performing a second type of security function associated with identifying an authorized user of the apparatus.

Facilitating use of a universal integrated circuit card (UICC) for secure device updates

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, storing subscription utilization information in the memory where the subscription utilization information is indicative of a history of subscription usage by the device and where registration information associated with a group of subscription agreements is stored in the memory, receiving location information from the device processor where the location information indicates a location of the device, and selecting a target subscription agreement from among the group of subscription agreements according to the history of subscription usage and the location information. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Method and apparatus for managing communication services using multiple subscription agreements

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, storing, in a UICC memory of a communication device, access point name information associated with a plurality of access point names to be selectively utilized by a device processor of the communication device for wireless communications, and providing the device processor with access to the access point name information in the UICC memory to enable the device processor to establish the wireless communications. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Method and device for managing access point name information

An aspect includes storing data elements in a storage space of a memory device. The storage space is allocated for an account of a subscriber of a universal subscriber identification system. An aspect also includes assigning subscriber-inputted security levels to the data elements. The security levels define varying degrees of access protections associated with the data elements. An aspect further includes generating a security envelope that includes a data element selected from the storage space. The security envelope is configured with an access protection scheme that is commensurate with a corresponding assigned security level. An aspect also includes providing access to the selected data element by another subscriber of the universal subscriber identification system via the security envelope. The access is provided in accordance with the access protection scheme.

Universal subscriber identity recognition and data classification

A method includes receiving, from an aerial vehicle, information related to a plurality of radio-frequency signals detected by the aerial vehicle, and identifying access points that transmitted at least one of the plurality of radio-frequency signals based on at least the information. The method also includes determining a first geographical location of the aerial vehicle based on at least the information and locations associated with the access points and identifying a second geographical location, the second geographical location associated with at least one of an obstacle or a restricted zone. The method also includes controlling a navigation of the aerial vehicle based on at least the first geographical location and the second geographical location.
