Abstract
Various methods for managing packet switched (PS) states on a mobile communication device may include performing, on a first subscription on the mobile communication device, a transition from a first radio access technology (RAT) to a second RAT, determining whether at least one application on the mobile communication device is utilizing on-demand PS services on the first subscription, and registering for circuit switched (CS) services but not PS services on the second RAT in response to determining that no applications on the mobile communication device is utilizing on-demand PS services on the first subscription.
Claims30
A method for managing packet switched (PS) states on a mobile communication device, comprising:
- performing, on a first subscription on the mobile communication device, a transition from a first radio access technology (RAT) to a second RAT;
- determining whether at least one application on the mobile communication device is utilizing on-demand PS services on the first subscription;
- and
- registering for circuit switched (CS) services but not PS services on the second RAT in response to determining that no applications on the mobile communication device is utilizing on-demand PS services on the first subscription.
A mobile communication device, comprising:
- a memory;
- a radio frequency (RF) resource;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory and the RF resource, configured to connect to a first subscriber identity module (SIM) associated with a first subscription, and configured to:
- perform, on the first subscription, a transition from a first radio access technology (RAT) to a second RAT;
- determine whether at least one application on the mobile communication device is utilizing on-demand packet switched (PS) services on the first subscription;
- and
- register for circuit switched (CS) services but not PS services on the second RAT in response to determining that no applications on the mobile communication device is utilizing on-demand PS services on the first subscription.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored thereon processor-executable software instructions configured to cause a processor of a mobile communication device to perform operations comprising:
- performing, on a first subscription on the mobile communication device, a transition from a first radio access technology (RAT) to a second RAT;
- determining whether at least one application on the mobile communication device is utilizing on-demand packet switched (PS) services on the first subscription;
- and
- registering for circuit switched (CS) services but not PS services on the second RAT in response to determining that no applications on the mobile communication device is utilizing on-demand PS services on the first subscription.
A mobile communication device, comprising:
- means for performing, on a first subscription on the mobile communication device, a transition from a first radio access technology (RAT) to a second RAT;
- means for determining whether at least one application on the mobile communication device is utilizing on-demand packet switched (PS) services on the first subscription;
- and
- means for registering for circuit switched (CS) services but not PS services on the second RAT in response to determining that no applications on the mobile communication device is utilizing on-demand PS services on the first subscription.
