Abstract:
A method, corresponding apparatuses, and a computer program product for multiSIM devices with embedded SIM functionality are provided. The method comprises downloading at least one subscription from a secure application manager to a secure element with remote provisioning functionality within a user equipment. The method also comprises determining whether or not to assign an identity related to the at least one subscription. The method further comprises informing the user equipment of the at least one subscription being present upon assignment of the identity. With the claimed inventions, subscriptions and a pool of identities can be efficiently and flexibly managed and maintained remotely.
