A device, method and system for controlling provisioning of a mobile device is provided. An example devices determines, upon power-up, a status of a provisioning flag. The example device, in response to the provisioning flag comprising a first state associated with an out-of-box update mode, implements a first provisioning stage associated with a first communication system according to the out-of-box update mode. The example device, in response to the provisioning flag comprising a second state associated with a post-deployment update mode, implements the first provisioning stage associated with the first communication system according to the post-deployment update mode different from the out-of-box update mode. The example device implements a second provisioning stage for one or more of the second communication system and an operating system implemented at the mobile device.

Mobile devices may have more than one communication system, each of which may need provisioning, for example, when newly purchased from a supplier, and/or when purchased, used, from a reseller, and the like. In some instances, tens to hundreds, or more, of similar mobile devices may be purchased such that the communication systems at the mobile devices may need provisioning, which can be time consuming.
The accompanying figures, where like reference numerals refer to identical or functionally similar components throughout the separate views, together with the detailed description below, are incorporated in and form part of the specification, and serve to further illustrate embodiments of concepts that include the claimed invention, and explain various principles and advantages of those embodiments.
FIG. 1 is a system for controlling provisioning of a mobile device, in accordance with some examples.
FIG. 2 is a device diagram showing a device structure of a mobile device which controls provisioning, in accordance with some examples.
Skilled artisans will appreciate that elements in the figures are illustrated for simplicity and clarity and have not necessarily been drawn to scale. For example, the dimensions of some of the elements in the figures may be exaggerated relative to other elements to help improve understanding of embodiments of the present disclosure.
The system, apparatus, and method components have been represented where appropriate by conventional symbols in the drawings, showing only those specific details that are pertinent to understanding the embodiments of the present disclosure so as not to obscure the disclosure with details that will be readily apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art having the benefit of the description herein.
Mobile devices may have more than one communication system, each of which may need provisioning, for example, when newly purchased from a supplier, and/or when purchased, used, from a reseller, and the like. In some instances, tens to hundreds, or more, of similar mobile devices may be purchased such that the communication systems at the mobile devices may need provisioning, which can be time consuming. Thus, there exists a need for an improved technical method, device, and system for controlling provisioning of a mobile device.
