Apparatus and method for arbitration of updates provided to a universal integrated circuit card

A non-transitory computer program product, comprising:

• a computer-readable medium comprising code for:
• receiving a status update message from at least one of a first RAT module supporting a first RAT and a second RAT module supporting a second RAT, wherein the first RAT and the second RAT are different, and the status update message includes a service status;
• and
• determining whether to generate a UICC update message to update a UICC by applying one or more RAT arbitration factors to the received status update message, wherein the UICC includes current UICC status information associated with a current RAT, and wherein one of the one or more RAT arbitration factors comprises a service status priority.

An apparatus for wireless communications, comprising:

• at least one processor configured to:
• receive a status update message from at least one of a first RAT module supporting a first RAT and a second RAT module supporting a second RAT,
• wherein the first RAT and the second RAT are different, and the status update message includes a service status;
• and
• determine whether to generate a universal integrated circuit card (UICC) update message to update a UICC by applying one or more RAT arbitration factors to the received status update message, wherein the UICC includes current UICC status information associated with a current RAT, and wherein one of the one or more RAT arbitration factors comprises a service status priority.
