If a phone is bought directly from a carrier with a SIM lock, the phone can only add eSIMs from the same carrier as the one on the physical SIM card, even after a carrier unlock. Foreign eSIMs may have limited support.
For GSM, UMTS and LTE networks, this number was provisioned in the SIM card and for cdmaOne and CDMA2000 networks, in the phone directly or in the R-UIM card (the CDMA equivalent of the SIM card). Both cards have been superseded by the UICC. An IMSI is usually presented as a 15-digit number but can be shorter.
eUICC can refer to any implementation or application of the eUICC standards in an eSIM device. Each implementation of eUICC includes software code, a processor to emulate the software, non-volatile memory used to store the unique identifiers and cryptographic keys that are part of a SIM profile, and a bus interface to communicate the SIM profile to the mobile device. eUICC standards specify ...
SOS mode also shares your location with the emergency service. You can also create emergency contacts that will receive a text message with your location after your emergency call ends, and which ...
A typical SIM card (mini-SIM with micro-SIM cutout) A SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card is an integrated circuit (IC) intended to securely store an international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) number and its related key, which are used to identify and authenticate subscribers on mobile telephone devices (such as mobile phones and laptops).
GETS is accessed through a dialing plan and Personal Identification Number (PIN) card verification system. Using common telephone equipment, the user dials the universal access number 710-627-4387 (710-NCS-GETS). A prompt directs the entry of the user's assigned twelve-digit PIN and the destination telephone number. Once the user is ...
The phone identifies the subscriber by transmitting the International mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) number, which is stored on a SIM card that can, in theory, be transferred to any handset. However, the network's ability to know a subscriber's current, individual device enables many network and security features.
Fixed Dialing Number (FDN) is a service mode of a GSM mobile phone's SIM card. [1] Numbers are added to the FDN list, and when activated, FDN restricts outgoing calls to only those numbers listed, or to numbers with certain prefixes. [1] A notable exception is that emergency calls to 000, 112, 911, 999 and the like are exempt. [2]
