Abstract:
Various embodiments enable recovering from an out-of-service state in a wireless device. A processor may perform scans of a first acquisition database to acquire a first renewed service connection for a first subscriber identification module (SIM). The scans include first and second searches for first and second channels identified in first and second technology lists, respectively, from the first acquisition database, respectively, until either a renewed service connection is acquired or each of the first and second technology lists are exhausted. The first and second technology lists identify channels from first and second radio access technologies. A currently used channel of a second SIM acquired service is first on the first technology list. The processor may perform a full frequency scan to acquire a first renewed service connection for the first SIM in response to determining that each of the first and second technology lists were exhausted.
Abstract:
Methods and devices are disclosed for enabling efficient network registration using a shared radio resource for at least a first and second SIM of a multi-SIM wireless communication device. An overall priority-based ranking may be calculated for each SIM of the multi-SIM device, which may be used to determine an preferred order for the SIMs to register for services in their respective networks. Calculating the overall priority-based ranking for each SIM may include determining values for a service capability priority factor, an attachment time factor, and a sleep cycle duration factor.

The scans include first and second searches for first channels identified in first and second technology lists, respectively, from the first and second acquisition database, respectively, until either a renewed service connection is acquired or each of the first and second technology lists are exhausted. The first and second technology lists identify channels from a most recently used radio access technology of the respective acquisition databases. The processor may perform a full frequency scan to acquire a first renewed service connection for the first SIM in response to determining that each of the first and second technology lists were exhausted.

Abstract:
Methods and devices are disclosed for enabling efficient network registration using a shared radio resource for at least a first and second SIM of a multi-SIM wireless communication device. After the end of a radio-off condition of the radio resource, the wireless device may identify services supported by each of the first and second SIMs, evaluate criticality of the supported services, determine which of the first and second SIM supports the service having the highest criticality, and prevent the other SIM from registering with its network before the SIM with the service of the highest criticality has successfully registered for service in its selected network.

Abstract:
Methods, devices, and systems embodiments enable efficient service acquisition on multiple subscriber identification modules (SIMs) of a multi-SIM wireless device. A processor may determine whether the first SIM has acquired a first service with a first wireless network while the second SIM is operating in a second SIM deep sleep period. The processor may also trigger the second SIM to operate in an awake state, prior to expiration of the second SIM deep sleep period, to acquire a second service with a second wireless network in response to determining that the first SIM has acquired the first service with the first wireless network.
