Abstract
Methods and devices for dynamic VSIM provisioning on a multi-SIM wireless device having a first SIM as a Universal Integrated Circuit Card (UICC) and a virtual SIM (VSIM). A provisioning server may receive updated information from the wireless device, and based at least partially on the received information, determine whether the SIM profile on the VSIM of the wireless device should be changed. To change the SIM profile, the provisioning server may determine whether remote credential management procedures are enabled. If so, the provisioning server may select a new SIM profile from a plurality of SIM profiles, and provision the new SIM profile in the VSIM using remote credential management procedures. If remote credential management procedures are unavailable, the provisioning server may select a remote SIM from a plurality of remote SIMs associated with the provisioning server, and run the remote SIM to execute authentication processes for the wireless device.
