Abstract: This application describes techniques for dynamically updating a subscriber identity module (SIM) activation policy for enabling use of an electronic SIM (eSIM) and/or a physical SIM (pSIM) in a wireless device. The wireless device is initially configured with a less restrictive SIM activation policy and during setup is reconfigured to a more restrictive SIM activation policy that locks the wireless device to a particular mobile network operator (MNO) based on an eSIM or a pSIM installed in the wireless device.

Abstract: The described embodiments set forth techniques for management of electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) profiles for a wireless device, including in-field replacement of provisioning (bootstrap) eSIM profiles. Public key infrastructure (PKI) information for an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) profile management server is installed in an embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC) of a wireless device at a time of manufacture and used subsequently by the wireless device to conduct an eSIM profile management session and verify authorization of the OEM profile management server to manage, e.g., update and/or replace, one or more eSIM profiles on the eUICC of the wireless device
