This disclosure provides systems, methods, services, and platforms for prompting a user to respond to an offer on a mobile device. The disclosure enables Mobile Network Operators to create campaigns to target customers who are nearing the limit of their data plans, voice plans, SMS plans, and MMS plans. In some embodiments, the cloud server interacts with a client application to prompt the use of a mobile device to respond to an offer send in a campaign. The disclosure also provides embodiments to check to see if the user has opted out of receiving offers, or if a device can not execute a command, or if a threshold number of offers has already been sent. This disclosure also provides embodiments for authenticating third party account log-in.

An apparatus enables communication between a user device and a communication server. The apparatus receives a device identifier of the user device and determines after searching a device-to-token database that the device identifier is not associated with any device communication token. The apparatus activates a predetermined application on the user device, and thereafter receives a device communication token of the predetermined application. A mapping of the device communication token with the device identifier is stored in the device-to-token database after which a communication account is created for the user device on a communication server. A login credential for the communication account is sent to the user device in a message addressed to the predetermined application and transmitted via a message server. The predetermined application on the user device receives the message, and thereafter automatically logs in to the communication server according to the login credential in the message.

Example embodiments relate to a user equipment that can receive a command to turn on the user equipment. In response to determining that the user equipment has not been initialized, and prior to displaying a graphical user interface listing a Wi-Fi network to which the user equipment can connect, the user equipment presents a graphical user interface that displays an option to activate a cellular service provided by a mobile network operator entity, but does not display an option to activate the cellular service at a subsequent time.

This disclosure provides methods, services, and platforms that automatically prompt mobile phone users to add contact information to their phone book after a triggering event such as calling a phone number. The methods, services, and platforms allow mobile network operators to provide a service that allows businesses to potentially have their numbers added to the phonebook of a mobile phone after a disconnected call.

An association server in a communication system receives a device identifier of a user device and searches a device-to-token database in order to determine whether the device identifier is currently associated with any device communication token. In response to determining that the device identifier is associated with a device communication token, the association server creates a communication account for the user device on a communication server, and sends a login credential for the communication account to the user device in a message transmitted via a message server. The message is addressed by the device communication token to a predetermined application installed on the user device. The predetermined application on the user device receives the message from the message service, and thereafter automatically logs in to the communication server according to the login credential included in the message.

A method, system and graphical user interface (GUI) for a mobile device, the GUI including: (a) at least one multifunctional button having at least two activation states: (i) a first state, when actuated, providing a basic function, and (ii) a second state, when actuated, providing an advanced function; whereby each of the activation states is actuated by a different user action; and (b) a plurality of calling accounts, each of the plurality of calling account being logically associated with a subscriber identity module (SIM) card or a direct inward dial (DID) number; wherein the at least one multifunctional button is configured to facilitate selection of one of the plurality of calling accounts in order to perform a communication event.

Apparatuses, methods, and computer readable storage media are provided for implementing a trusted subscription management platform. An example server device is configured to transmit, to a trusted UI client of a mobile station, information regarding a set of virtual SIM cards associated with the mobile station, and receive, from the trusted UI client of the mobile station, a request to provision a particular virtual SIM card. The server device is further configured to initiate, by an SM-SR module and via a trusted baseband client of the mobile device, a secure proxy channel between the server device and a profile manager that hosts the particular virtual SIM card, and transmit, via the secure proxy channel and to the profile manager, an instruction regarding the particular virtual SIM card. Corresponding methods and computer readable storage media are provided.

A method for providing mobile connectivity in a transportation vehicle with a cellular connectivity unit using a first subscriber identification module associated with a first subscription for a first Mobile Network Operator and at least a second subscriber identification module associated with a second subscription for a second Mobile Network Operator. A first Access Point Name interface and at least one further Access Point Name interface are configured, wherein both are related to the first subscriber identification module. The first Access Point Name interface is used for network registration and data transport of the cellular connectivity unit assigned to the first subscriber identification module. The at least one further Access Point Name interface is used for network registration and data transport of the cellular connectivity unit assigned to the second subscriber identification module.

A system for use with a mobile cellular device comprising an Internet browser and an embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) card. The eSIM card stores an application and a first profile. The system includes a web server configured to generate a web portal comprising a plurality of service plans. The first profile establishes communication over a first network with the web server, which transmits the web portal to the Internet browser over the first network. The web portal receives a selection of one of the service plans from the Internet browser. The web server sends the selection to a subscription manager configured to select an operational profile based on the selection and cause the operational profile to be transmitted to the application. The mobile cellular device is configured to communicate over a second network using the operational profile after the operational profile has been received and activated by the application.
