Abstract
A system and method of incrementally updating a preferred roaming list (PRL) are disclosed. The systems and methods include modifying a removable user identity module (RUIM) card on the mobile device to accept data structures that include incremental update information for a PRL. The systems and methods also include modifying a removable user identity module (RUIM) card on the mobile device to execute operators that allow for a PRL to be incrementally updated.
