1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- receiving a multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS) service from a first cell in a first multicast broadcast single frequency network (MBSFN) area while in a radio resource control (RRC) idle mode;
reselecting to a second cell through an intra-frequency cell reselection upon moving into coverage of the second cell, the second cell being a non-MBSFN cell or an MBSFN cell in a second MBSFN area different than the first MBSFN area; and
continuing to receive the MBMS service directly from the first cell while receiving paging signals from the second cell.

Abstract
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus receives an MBMS service from a first cell in a first MBSFN area while in an RRC idle mode. The apparatus reselects to a second cell through an intra-frequency cell reselection upon moving into coverage of the second cell. The second cell is a non-MBSFN cell or an MBSFN cell in a second MBSFN area different than the first MBSFN area. The apparatus continues to receive the MBMS service directly from the first cell while receiving paging signals from the second cell.
