Abstract: A computer implemented method of identifying potentially unsafe devices or devices otherwise subject to a product recall, and which devices are registered to a network, and of notifying a user or administrator. The method comprises registering computer devices to the network and collecting data associated with those devices, using the collected data to identify the device type of the registered devices, identifying device types having associated device safety notices, comparing the device types of computer devices registered to the network with the device types having associated device safety notices to determine if any of the computer devices are unsafe devices or are otherwise subject to a product recall, and for devices so identified, notifying the user or administrator of the unsafe device or devices.

Abstract: In one example, an apparatus comprises a first profile host configured to allow storing at least one non-operational SIM profile. The apparatus further comprises a second profile host comprising a certified non-removable subscriber identity module and configured to allow storing at least one operational SIM profile. The apparatus further comprises a profile host selection unit configured to select only one of the first profile host and the second profile host to be active at any given time.

Abstract: An electronic device with a network subscription is provided. The device comprises an embedded secure element including a subscription identification code for identifying the subscriber, a unique public first device identification code and a unique second device identification code linked to the first code. The embedded secure element is one of a physical and virtual secure element, and the second device identification code can be read with external reader equipment when the device is disconnected from the network. Methods of transferring a network subscription and identifying an electronic device are also provided.
