Abstract: A method of accessing, in a mobile communication device, an application issued by a Service Provider from a trusted application, also known as a wallet. A secure element, such as a SmartMX device, comprises a service manager that manages the application and a link between the application and an application-codec issued by the Service Provider, wherein the application-codec is designed for interfacing between the service manager and the application, for processing an access request requesting access to the application received from the service manager and, triggered by the wallet, accessing the application via the service manager by means of the link between the application and the application-codec, such that the application-codec linked with the respective application performs accessing the application under control of the service manager.

Abstract: In an NFC mobile communication device (3) an operating system, such as a JAVA operating system (J2ME), is able to start software applications (6) identifiable by application identifications (AID). The mobile communication device (3) is equipped with a secure memory device (2), e.g. configured as a SmartMX card, which comprises a first memory portion (2a) configured as a MIFARE memory.
