Electronic devices are disclosed herein. Each device includes a display, communication circuitry and a processor. For each device, the respective processor executes registering a geographic locale indicator for the electronic device via a universally unique identified (UUID), equipment identity register (EIR) or manufacturer information. For a first device, a setup mode is executed, including transmitting the UUID, EIR, or manufacturer information to a second device, which may then determine is communication is possible with the first device based on the geographic locale indicator. The first device may receive a response indicative of whether the locales between the devices match. Based on the same, the first and/or second device may also display an indication as to whether communication is possible with the second device.

Electronic device and method for connecting the same to external device thereof

A method and a device configured to transmit information related to a device to a first electronic device through a communication module in accordance with a request of the first electronic device; establish a communication connection with a second electronic device based on the information; receive a backup request for data stored in the device from the first electronic device; generate backup data based on the backup request; transmit the generated backup data to the second electronic device; and reset the device based on a device reset request in a case of receiving the device reset request from the second electronic device.

Electronic device and method for transfering data of wearable device

Disclosed according to various embodiments are an electronic device for opening a communication service and a method for an operation of the electronic device. The electronic device may comprise: a display; a memory for storing device information about the electronic device and an application for activating a communication service for an external electronic device; a first communication module for establishing a first communication channel to communicate with at least one of a first external server in which information about a plurality of service providers providing communication services is stored, a second external server related to the activation of communication services, and a third external server for providing a profile for the use of communication services; a second communication module for establishing a second communication channel to communicate with the external electronic device; and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to control the application to: transmit the device information about the electronic device to the external electronic device by using the second communication module; receive, from the external electronic device, information for activating a communication service identified on the basis of the device information about the electronic device; and display a screen for activating the communication service for the external electronic device according to whether each of two or more activation methods for the communication service and contained in the information for activating the communication service is supported.

Electronic device, external electronic device, and method for managing eSIM of external electronic device

An electronic device provided. The electronic device comprises at least one communication circuit configured to perform communication with at least one external device, at least one processor operatively connected with the at least one communication circuit, and a memory operatively connected with the at least one processor, wherein the memory stores instructions to, when executed, enable the at least one processor to control the at least one communication circuit to establish a first communication connection with a first wearable device, control the at least one communication circuit to receive a signal for establishing a second communication connection from a second wearable device, the signal including information indicating whether a user wears the second wearable device, identify whether the user wears the second wearable device based on the information, and based on identifying that the user wears the second wearable device, control the at least one communication circuit to release the first communication connection and establish the second communication connection with the second wearable device. Other various embodiments are possible as well.

Electronic device for establishing communication with external electronic device and method of controlling the same

An electronic device includes a display, communication circuitry performing wireless connection with an external electronic device, a processor operatively coupled with the display and the communication circuitry, and a memory operatively connected with the processor. Based on executing instructions stored in the memory, the processor is configured to control the electronic device to receive information on a first notification message generated within the external electronic device using the communication circuitry. Based on instructions stored in the memory being executed, the processor controls the electronic device to display the first notification message through the display. Based on the instructions stored in the memory being executed, the processor is configured to control the electronic device to receive one or more second notification messages which have been generated within the external electronic device prior to the first notification message. Based on instructions stored in the memory being executed, the processor is configured to control the electronic device to display, in response to an input, the second notification message in at least a portion of the display.
