    Abstract: An apparatus configured to engage in an embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) profile transfer process to transfer an eSIM profile from a source device executing a first operating system (OS) that implements a first protocol stack related to eSIM profile transfers to a target device executing a second OS that implements a second protocol stack related to eSIM profile transfers, wherein the first protocol stack and the second protocol stack are different, process, based on signaling received from an entitlement server, a token for transferring the eSIM profile and generate, for transmission to the target device, a message comprising the token.

    Abstract: An apparatus or method for storing records for a plurality of embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) profiles, wherein a record for each eSIM profile comprises a state of the eSIM profile, receiving, from a first user equipment (UE), a message indicating a first eSIM profile has been deleted from the first UE, changing the state of the first eSIM profile from installed to available, receiving a message requesting the first eSIM profile be allocated to a second UE, changing the state of the first eSIM profile to a state allowing the eSIM profile to be downloaded to the second UE and downloading the first eSIM profile to the second UE.

    CPC classification number: H04W8/265 H04W60/04

    Abstract: This Application sets forth techniques for managing electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) profiles at a wireless device, including accommodating delays and/or error conditions that can occur during provisioning, installation, and/or activation of an eSIM for the wireless device. A wireless device implements one or more monitoring modes to determine changes in status of a newly installed eSIM, a re-activated eSIM, and/or a replenished data eSIM, and learn when the eSIM can be used to access services of a cellular wireless network. The wireless device can detect eSIM status changes based on messages received from a cellular wireless network or by testing data connections to a pre-configured test connectivity end point.
