Method and apparatus for accelerating camp and registration process during terminal startup

Abstract

Provided are a method and apparatus for accelerating a camp and registration process during terminal startup. In the method, during startup, an operation of selecting network camp and an operation of initializing a card are simultaneously performed; and according to network information obtained after initializing the card, it is determined to continue camping and registering, or to reselect a network on which to camp and then register, or to directly perform registration on the network on which the terminal has already camped. The disclosure can accelerate a camp and registration process during terminal startup, and reduce the time needed from startup to normal service operation, so that a terminal can support an emergency call or a regular service as soon as possible, thereby increasing the satisfaction of a user when using the terminal
