Methods, systems, and computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for receiving, from a mobile device, a request to register with a mobility network, the mobile device including a partially-activated subscriber identification module (SIM); determining that the partially-activated SIM qualifies for on-device activation; in response to determining that the partially-activated SIM qualifies for on-device activation, providing a short message service (SMS) message to the mobile device through the mobility network, the SMS message including a uniform resource locator (URL); in response to activation of the URL, providing, to the mobile device, access to an activation portal web page associated with the URL, wherein SIM data and device data are automatically provided to the activation portal web page; and receiving, from the mobile device, activation data, and in response, activating the SIM and provisioning the mobile device within the mobility network.

On-device activation of mobile computing devices

Providing for network selection management for a mobile communication environment is provided herein. By way of example, the network selection can supersede default network selection configurations of a mobile terminal. Usage behaviors of mobile terminals can be monitored to gauge service demand for individual terminals. Based on the service demand, a particular network can be selected as a default for a terminal. The network selection can be utilized for load balancing terminals among suitable mobile networks, optimizing network resources, improving services for terminal devices, or the like.
