Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for enabling personalized shared mobile phone usage when accessing data services within a wireless telecommunications network, including an illustrative example application of the invention as it relates to mobile subscribers who cannot afford a mobile phone handset in emerging markets. For instance, a prepaid wireless subscriber can have a personal phone number associated with their own billing account, which can be used to access data services on a wireless network without needing to purchase any hardware, such as a mobile handset or SIM card. Thus, the subscriber may access his account and use data services through a borrowed handset.

Abstract: The present disclosure presents methods and apparatuses for selective channel reset. For example, the disclosure describes example methods that may include determining that a candidate cell exhibits superior communication properties on a carrier than does a serving cell. In an aspect, this carrier may correspond to an active serving cell channel. The example methods may also include adding a reset flag to a channel reconfiguration message based on the determining, where the reset flag instructs a user equipment to reset a subset of a set of channels associated with the serving cell and the subset includes the channel. Furthermore, example methods may include transmitting the channel reconfiguration message, for example, to a user equipment. Thus, a specified subset of channels associated with the user equipment may be reset, which reduces the signaling load, complexity, and power drain associated with legacy channel reset methods and apparatuses.

Abstract: Systems and methods for supporting regulatory requirements for the distribution of controlled and non-controlled items such as, for example, non-controlled prescriptions (Rx), medical devices, and controlled substances in countries such as the United States and Canada, are provided. The systems and methods incorporate a license verification module that is configured to perform license validation for a particular order placed for a controlled and/or non-controlled item.
