Apparatus and methods of communicating over multiple subscriptions

A computer program product for communicating with multiple networks using multiple subscriptions, comprising:

• a non-transitory computer-readable medium, comprising:
• code for causing at least one computer to establish a call in a first network related to a first subscription over a transceiver;
• code for causing the at least one computer to autonomously tune the transceiver to a frequency of a second network related to a second subscription within a defined gap during the call;
• and
• code for causing the at least one computer to monitor one or more channels in the second network during the defined gap for one or more idle-mode signals.

A user equipment (UE) apparatus for communicating with multiple networks using multiple subscriptions, comprising:

• means for establishing a call in a first network related to a first subscription over a transceiver;
• means for autonomously tuning the transceiver to a frequency of a second network related to a second subscription within a defined gap during the call;
• and
• means for monitoring one or more channels in the second network during the defined gap for one or more idle-mode signals.

A user equipment (UE) apparatus for communicating with multiple networks using multiple subscriptions, comprising:

• at least one processor configured to:
• establish a call in a first network related to a first subscription over a transceiver;
• autonomously tune the transceiver to a frequency of a second network related to a second subscription within a defined gap during the call;
• and
• monitor one or more channels in the second network during the defined gap for one or more idle-mode signals;
• and
• a memory coupled to the at least one processor.
