Abstract: A wireless device is configured to operate on a variety of service providers' wireless communication networks based on various defined rules. A SIM may store or encode information and algorithms proprietary to two or more service providers. A wireless communication device with a configuration profile selected based on a particular selection of a wireless network may be remotely configured based on one or more selection criteria or defined rules. A SIM may generate a response to authentication requests using the appropriate authentication information and algorithms stored on the SIM. A wireless communication device may self-select a service provider wireless communication network and self configure with a corresponding configuration profile. Configuration or selection may be based on a defined relationship between an application and a particular device provider.

Abstract: Systems and methods are operable to limit use of a Controlled Wireless Device within a controlled environment. An exemplary embodiment establishes a first wireless communication link between a Controlled Wireless Device and a Linked Context Aware Communication and Control Device (LCACCD) Platform, detects proximity of the Controlled Wireless Device to the controlled environment, communicates a control signal from the LCACCD Platform to the Controlled Wireless Device when the Controlled Wireless Device is within the controlled environment, and controls communications of the Controlled Wireless Device based upon the communicated control signal, wherein the Controlled Wireless Device is communicating over a second wireless link established with a wireless carrier network.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are operable to system for communicate with vehicles. An exemplary embodiment employs a vehicle device and a server. The vehicle device is configured to communicate with a control network and at least one carrier. The server is configured to communicate with the control network and the at least one carrier, is configured to communicate command information with the vehicle device using the control network, and is configured to separately communicate information of interest with the vehicle device using the at least one carrier in accordance with the communicated command information communicated over the control network.
