DYNAMIC UTILIZATION OF SERVICES BY A TEMPORARY DEVICE
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising;
receiving, from a visited network device of a visited network to which a mobile device is communicatively coupled, a request to use a service from the mobile device, wherein the service is enabled by a software application executed by the mobile device;
in response to forwarding the request to a home network device of a home network associated with the mobile device, receiving data representing the application from the home network device; and
initiating a wireless transmission of the software application directed to the mobile device.

Abstract
A system for dynamically providing or utilizing services and applications on a temporary or new device is provided. A user can send a message with a secure code that is forwarded to a home network associated with the user. The home network can initiate transferring data from an application repository on the home network to the visited network which can then install the application through over the air programming. Once installed on the device, the application can send authentication information including the subscriber identity module (SIM) information to a virtual SIM database on the visiting carrier or home carrier networks to enable the application and services on the device.

11. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, by a device comprising a processor from a visited network device of a visited network to which a user equipment is communicatively coupled, a message from the user equipment comprising an authorization code for a service enabled by an application executed by the user equipment; transmitting, by the device, the message to a home network device of a home network associated with the user equipment; receiving, by the device, application data representing the application from an application repository of the home network; and facilitating, by the device, installation of the application on the user equipment via an over the air programming channel of the visited network. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
-
receiving, from a first network device of a visited network, a request to install an application on a user equipment communicably coupled to the visited network, wherein the request comprises a security code; matching the security code with corresponding information represented in a cloud profile account stored by a second network device of a home network; sending application data relating to the application received from an application repository to the visited network; and initiating programming of the application on the user equipment using over the air programming via the first network device of the visited network. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
