Abstract: Disclosed is management of a plurality of active subscriber profiles at the same time within the same secure element integrated in a host terminal. A baseband processor of the terminal and a communication interface controller of the secure element together establish different separate links for each one of the active profiles. It is thus possible to address, and therefore to simultaneously use, a plurality of profiles. A link can be the conventional ISO 7816 link. The HCI/SWP interface allows a large number of logical links (or HCI pipes) to be established using a single additional tab for connecting the secure element in the terminal. Each active profile is thus associated with an HCI pipe for routing messages relating thereto. As a variant or in combination, an SPI interface allows master-slave logical links to be established.

Abstract: A control method and associated devices in an embedded subscriber identity module (eUICC1) co-operating with a terminal (T) includes operations for: receiving identifiers (ID) of services associated with a communications profile (P) to be executed when the profile is in the active state; determining whether each service (S) is supported by an operating system (OS1) of the embedded subscriber identity module (eUICC1), and if not, sending a request to update the operating system (OS1); installing the update enabling the operating system to run the communications profile (P); and sending a request to receive or to continue receiving the communications profile (P) for installing in the embedded subscriber identity module (eUICC1). Also described is a control method performed by a profile provisioning server for supplying the embedded subscriber identity module (eUICC1) with the service identifiers.

Abstract: A method of managing profiles in a secure element where the secure element includes an active first profile associated with a first communication network and a second profile associated with a second communication network. The method includes deactivating the first profile and activating the second profile, where the deactivation and the activation are implemented following detection of a failure during a local verification pertaining to the first profile for the use of this the first profile. A local verification may be a verification in the secure element of the authorization of access of a user to the first profile, for example three failures of PIN or PUK code or of biometric authentication data, the local verification being performed in the secure element, and the failure being relative to a security failure of the first profile or to an operating failure of the first profile.

Abstract: Devices and methods for managing a mobile communications profile stored in a nonvolatile memory of a secure element and performed by the secure element are disclosed. The devices and methods may include operations such as reading the state of a flag stored in the nonvolatile memory of the secure element and indicating whether the profile may be deleted; determining the active or inactive state of the profile; and if the flag indicates that the profile may be deleted and if it is determined that the profile is inactive, then deleting the profile.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods and devices for updating a cache memory in a telecommunications terminal suitable for co-operating with a subscriber identity module. Some implementations of the subscriber identity module may perform operations that include detecting a modification of an elementary file and generating update data associated with the modified elementary file. During a starting stage, the operations may further include receiving a start message from the terminal; receiving a request serving to identity an elementary file for processing; sending the update data associated with the elementary file for processing; and reading the elementary file in compliance with a read command from the terminal. The invention also provides corresponding methods and devices for the terminal, and the corresponding module and terminal.

Abstract: Method of managing profiles in a secure element, the secure element including a first profile associated with a first communication network and a second profile associated with a second communication network, the first profile being active. The method includes steps of deactivation of the first profile and activation of the second profile. The steps of deactivation and of activation are implemented following the detection of a failure during a local verification pertaining to the first profile for the use of this the first profile. A local verification may be a verification in the secure element of the authorization of access of a user to the first profile, for example three failures of PIN or PUK code or of biometric authentication data.

Abstract: An example of an emergency call system includes a device for triggering an emergency call and a communications device having a secure element. In various implementations, the secure element includes at least two profiles, one of which is an emergency profile; and a receiver that receives, over a local communications channel, an event issued by the device for triggering an emergency call. The communications device may also include means for activating the emergency profile, which enables emergency calls to be made in a communications network if the emergency profile is not already active. The communications device may also include means for calling an emergency number in the communications network in order to make the emergency call.
