Abstract: Provided according to various embodiments are an electronic device in which a profile is installed and an operating method for the electronic device. The electronic device may comprise: a communication module for receiving a profile package from a profile server; an eUICC for installing a profile by using the profile package, the eUICC including a memory; and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to: perform control such that the eUICC installs the profile thereon by using the profile package and a one-time key generated by mutual authentication between the profile server and the electronic device; when installation of the profile is unsuccessful, check the cause of the unsuccessful installation of the profile; when it is determined that the unsuccessful installation of the profile is due to insufficient available space in the memory, perform control such that the eUICC cleans the memory while keeping the one-time key stored in the memory; and perform control such that the eUICC reinstalls the profile thereon by using the profile package. Various other embodiments are also possible.

Abstract: An electronic device and an electronic-device-operating method are provided. The electronic device includes an embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) embedded in the electronic device, the eSIM storing a first profile associated with a first communication service, a physical subscriber identity module (pSIM) configured such that a SIM card is capable of being removably attached thereto or capable of being inserted thereinto, the pSIM storing a second profile associated with a second communication service, a communication processor configured to control the eSIM and the pSIM, and a processor. The processor is configured to receive a signal indicating switching from a dual standby mode to a single standby mode, control a local profile assistant in device (LPAd) configured to control the eSIM in response to reception of the signal, delete a task associated with the eSIM in response to completion of disabling the LPAd, request deactivating of a protocol stack corresponding to the eSIM in response to deleting the task, and reset the communication processor in response to deactivation of the protocol stack.
