Abstract
Embodiments provide a user equipment (UE) device that includes a memory and a processor configured to execute instructions stored in said memory. The processor is configured by the instructions to receive a first evolved packet system (EPS) mobility management (EMM) attach reject message in response to an attempt to attach to a first eNode B (eNB) of a radio access network (RAN). If the attach reject message includes an Evolved Packet System mobility management (EMM) error code, the processor directs an attach request to a second, confirming eNB. The processor may be further configured by the instructions to receive a second attach reject message from the second eNB and enter a lock state only the condition that the second attach reject message also includes an EMM error code, optionally the same EMM error code received in the first attach reject message.
