First Claim
Patent Images
1. A device configured to receive a contact data record comprising contact information associated with a previous device, the device comprising:
- a subscriber identity module (SIM) interface configured to receive a SIM card;
a transceiver configured to facilitate communications between the device and a contact database in which the contact data record is stored;
a processor in communication with the transceiver;
a memory in communication with the processor, the memory being configured to store instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to, responsive to the SIM card being inserted into the SIM interface;
generate a request for the contact data record;
send, via the transceiver, the request to the contact database;
receive, via the transceiver, the contact data record from the contact database in response to the request; and
store the contact data record.
