Abstract: An apparatus may communicate with at least two networks. The apparatus may be configured to opportunistically decode a channel from a first network and a channel from a second network in order to receive data from both networks. The apparatus may determine whether first data carried on a paging channel (PCH) is decodable from a subset of slots that carry the PCH. The subset of slots may be included in a set of slots that carry the PCH. When the PCH collides with a physical multicast channel (PMCH), the apparatus may decode second data carried on the PMCH instead of the first data when the first data is determined to be decodable from the subset of slots that carry the PCH, and decode the first data instead of the second data when the first data is not determined to be decodable from the subset of slots that carry the PCH.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods of communicating with multiple subscriptions at a wireless device include tuning away from an active call of a first subscription during a tune away mode to communicate using a second subscription. The apparatus and methods further include performing a first tune away procedure using the second subscription during the tune away mode. Additionally, the apparatus and methods include determining whether one or more additional tune away procedures are to be performed during the tune away mode using the second subscription subsequent to the performing of the first tune away procedure. Moreover, the apparatus and methods include determining to limit performance of the one or more additional tune away procedures and ending the tune away mode and tuning back to using the first subscription for the active call based on the determination to limit the performance of the one or more additional tune away procedures.
