Abstract: Methods, devices, and servers for as-needed update of a trusted list are provided herein. An electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) server receives a request for an eSIM of a particular type from a wireless device. The eSIM server evaluates the particular type and requests an eSIM of the particular type from a second eSIM server, which is not initially trusted by a secure element (SE) of the wireless device. The eSIM server sends a policy update to the wireless device. The wireless device passes the policy update to the SE, for example, a universal integrated circuit card (UICC). The UICC updates the trusted list with an identity of the second eSIM server. When the wireless device downloads a bound profile package (BPP) containing an eSIM from the second eSIM server, the UICC validates the BPP based on the updated trusted list. The eSIM is then installed on the UICC.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a technique for enabling Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) toolkit commands to be properly routed within a mobile device that includes an embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card (eUICC) configured to manage two or more electronic SIMs (eSIMs). Specifically, the technique involves a baseband component of the mobile device and the eUICC initially exchanging information about their eSIM capabilities to identify whether multiple eSIMs are active within the eUICC. During this exchange of information, the eUICC can generate a list of unique identifiers of the active eSIMs that are managed by the eUICC and provide the list of unique identifiers to the baseband component. In turn, the baseband component can update a configuration to manage the list of unique identifiers and use the list of unique identifiers to properly route SIM toolkit commands to the appropriate eSIM within the eUICC.
