Abstract: A method for performing a switch from a first mobile network to a second mobile network by a mobile terminal comprising a secure element includes the following steps: attaching to the first mobile network using a first subscription profile; downloading a second subscription profile from a subscription management server including a command script defining a sequence of commands; attaching to the second mobile network; and executing the sequence of commands defined by the command script.

Abstract: A method of performing a switch from a first mobile network to a second mobile network by a mobile terminal comprising a secure element includes the steps of: (a) attaching to the first mobile network using a first attachment message containing a first identification data element, preferably a first IMSI, of a first subscription profile; and (b) attaching to the second mobile network by an attachment process including a second attachment message containing a second identification data element, preferably a second IMSI, of a second subscription profile. The second mobile network is configured to monitor at least parts of the attachment process, to determine the second identification data element contained therein and to forward this information to a subscription management server in order to confirm the successful attachment of the secure element to the second mobile network.

Abstract: A method of performing a switch from a first mobile network to a second mobile network by a mobile terminal comprising a secure element comprises the steps of: (a) requesting attachment to the first mobile network using a first identification data element, preferably a first IMSI, of a first subscription profile; (b) requesting attachment to the second mobile network using a second identification data element, preferably a second IMSI, of a second subscription profile; and (c) requesting attachment to the first mobile network. The second mobile network or another mobile network uses a confirmation data element, wherein the confirmation data element has the same format as the first and the second identification data element and is configured such that the attachment request is forwarded to a subscription management server in order to inform the subscription management server whether the attachment to the second mobile network was successful.

Abstract: A subscriber identity module for authenticating a subscriber on a communication network includes: a first set of subscriber identity data for authenticating the subscriber; a second set of subscriber identity data for authenticating the subscriber, with the first set of subscriber identity data differing from the second set of subscriber identity data; and a means for managing the first and second sets of subscriber identity data, with the managing being realized by management functions. The subscriber identity module can be extended to a method for managing the subscriber identity module, to a use of the subscriber identity module in a mobile end device, and to a system comprising subscriber end devices and a remote entity.
