Abstract: Systems and methods for enabling messages to be modified are disclosed. The system can enable messages that have already been sent, and even messages that have already been read, to be edited, recalled, or deleted. The system can identify incoming messages with message identifications (IDs) that are associated with previously sent or received messages, or “stored” messages, and modify the stored messages according to the content of the incoming messages. The system can include new SIP headers including X-EDIT-MessageID, X-RECALL-MessageID, and X-DELETE-MessageID. When an incoming message is received with a message ID associated with a stored message and/or one of the new commands, the receiving user equipment (UE) can replace the contents of the stored message with the contents of the incoming message or recall or delete the stored message.

Abstract: A system for use with a mobile cellular device comprising an Internet browser and an embedded subscriber identity module (“eSIM”) card. The eSIM card stores an application and a first profile. The system includes a web server configured to generate a web portal comprising a plurality of service plans. The first profile establishes communication over a first network with the web server, which transmits the web portal to the Internet browser over the first network. The web portal receives a selection of one of the service plans from the Internet browser. The web server sends the selection to a subscription manager configured to select an operational profile based on the selection and cause the operational profile to be transmitted to the application. The mobile cellular device is configured to communicate over a second network using the operational profile after the operational profile has been received and activated by the application.

Abstract: Network and/or application resources can be dynamically instantiated based on quality of service (QoS) data. In one aspect, different QoS levels can be assigned for different segments of a content delivery session, for example, based on subscription and/or policy data. Further, the QoS levels can be varied in response to changes in user experience and/or expectation. Furthermore, core network slices can be instantiated and/or updated based on the QoS levels.
