Abstract: A method for a wireless UE device to utilize tokens and cloud service technology to facilitate the provision of location data to an emergency call center. The UE may provide cellular signaling to initiate an outgoing telephone call to an emergency call center. A token may be provided during the signaling, wherein the token is associated with location information of the UE device stored on a server computer (referred to as a cloud server or location server). The token may uniquely identify the UE device and/or a user cloud service account of the UE device. The call center may use the token to retrieve location information of the UE from the cloud server. The use of the token may also provide for enhanced security, e.g., to prevent spoofing of the UE phone number.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for facilitating return to a first wireless network from a second wireless network by a wireless communication device is provided. A method includes the wireless communication device engaging in data transfer for an application session on the first wireless network; participating in a CSFB procedure to transition from the first wireless network to the second wireless network for servicing a voice connection; buffering data received for the application session before and/or during the CSFB procedure; releasing the voice connection; discontinuing requests for downlink data for the application session in response to termination of the voice connection to provide a gap in data transfer; reselecting to the first wireless network during the gap in data transfer; using the buffered data to continue the application session during reselection; and resuming data transfer for the application session on the first wireless network after completing reselection.
