Cell re-selection in a device configured to operate according to multiple cellular communication protocols. The device may operate according to a first cellular communication protocol at a first time, which may include attaching to a first cell. The device may operate according to a second cellular communication protocol at a second time. Operations according to the first cellular communication protocol may be suspended while operating according to the second cellular communication protocol. The device may attempt to resume operating according to the first cellular communication protocol at a third time. This may include measuring one or more of signal strength or signal quality of the first cell. The wireless device may select a cell to which to attach at the third time based at least in part on the measured signal strength and signal quality of the first cell.
