Abstract
This application describes techniques for dynamic feature-dependent electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) profile provisioning for wireless devices, including provisioning of device-compatible eSIM profiles and mitigation of provisioned device-incompatible eSIM profiles. A wireless device can provide information regarding additional device capabilities indicating support (or lack thereof) for optional cellular wireless standard features to a provisioning server, which can select an eSIM profile matched to the wireless device. In some cases, a wireless device detects an error condition resulting from enabling a device-incompatible eSIM profile on an embedded universal circuit card (eUICC) of the wireless device, disables the errant eSIM profile, and notifies a provisioning server regarding the error condition. The provisioning server can account for the device compatibility when providing additional eSIM profiles to the wireless device.
