The present disclosure relates to a paging handling in wireless communications. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method performed by a wireless device in a wireless communication system comprises: registering to a first network and a second network; establishing a connection with the first network; receiving, from the first network, information for a release timer; starting the release timer after receiving a paging from the second network; and upon an expiry of the release timer: releasing the connection with the first network without receiving a radio resource control (RRC) release message from the first network; and establishing a connection with the second network based on the paging from the second network.

Various arrangements for performing intelligent cellular channel management are presented herein. A physical cellular communication channel may be established between a user equipment (UE) and a cellular network for sending a short message service (SMS) message in response to a cellular service request from the UE. One or more characteristics of the UE, the SMS message, or both may be analyzed. A duration of time for which the physical cellular communication channel is to be kept active may be based on the analyzed one or more characteristics. A channel maintenance instruction may be transmitted to keep the physical cellular communication channel active based on a cellular network messaging controller determining to adjust the duration of time for which the physical cellular communication channel is kept active.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless device may receive, via a link between the wireless device and a remote user equipment (UE), an identifier associated with the remote UE. The wireless device may transmit, to a session management function (SMF) device, a communication associated with a protocol data unit (PDU) session of the remote UE, the communication including information indicating the identifier. The wireless device may receive, from the SMF device, instructions to manage the PDU session. Numerous other aspects are described.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a secondary cell group (SCG) deactivation command indicating that an SCG associated with the UE is deactivated. The UE may perform an action associated with a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity and a split radio bearer associated with the SCG based at least in part on receiving the SCG deactivation command. Numerous other aspects are described.
