Abstract: A method for managing expired or consumed applications (app1, app2 . . . appx) that have been provided by a Service Provider (SP) and are stored in a memory element (SE) of a mobile communication device (MOB), e.g. a NFC mobile phone, comprises storing a representation (RP) of expired or consumed applications (app1, app2 . . . appx) in or on a storage medium that is separate from the memory element (SE).

Abstract: A mobile communication device (1) is connectable to a classic or emulated MIFARE memory (MM) and a MIFARE applications manager (MAM). The MIFARE applications manager (MAM) is adapted to retrieve MIFARE applications (MIA) from the MIFARE memory (MM), to check whether they meet at least one validity criterion (CRIT1, 5 CRIT2) and to delete those MIFARE applications from the MIFARE memory (MM) that do not meet the validity criterion (CRIT1, CRIT2).

Abstract: A method for granting trusted applications (SP1_WL) of a Service Provider (SP1, SP2) access to applications (appSP1.1, appSP1.2; appSP2.1) of that Service Provider (SP1, SP2) that have been stored in a secure element (SE) comprises: the Service Provider (SP1, SP2) transmits a request (REQ1) for granting access to its applications to a Trusted Service Manager (TSM); the Trusted Service Manager (TSM) generates an access right code (AC1) and transmits it to both the Service Provider (SP1, SP2) and a service manager (SM) in the secure element (SE); the Service Provider (SP1, SP2) generates the trusted application (SP1_WL), provides it with the access right code (AC1) and sends it to the secure element (SE); the trusted application (SP1_WL) connects to the service manager (SM) with the access right code (AC1) whereupon the service manager (SM) grants the wallet (SP1_WL) access to the applications (appSP1.1, appSP1.2; appSP2.1).

Abstract: A mobile communication device (1) is connectable to a classic or emulated MIFARE memory (MM) and comprises a MIFARE applications manager (MAM) which parses the MIFARE memory (MM) for parts of the memory being occupied by MIFARE applications and for empty memory spaces between the occupied parts of the memory. If a predefined number or size of empty memory spaces is detected, the MIFARE applications manager (MIFARE applications manager) does a de-fragmentation of the MIFARE memory (MM) by reorganizing the storage location of MIFARE applications so that they are arranged close together, preferably arranged contiguously.
