Separation of client identification composition from customization payload to original equipment manufacturer layer
First Claim
1. A method of composing a client identification for a mobile communication device comprising:
- composing an initial client identification for a mobile communication device;
detecting a change in a service provider identification in a provisioning profile, wherein the change in the service provider identification indicates a change of service provider;
reading the changed service provider identification from the changed provisioning profile;
composing a subsequent client identification based on the changed service provider identification instead of receiving the subsequent client identification as a part of a customization payload;
replacing the initial client identification in a memory of the mobile communication device with the subsequent client identification; and
sending a notification to mobile services applications with the subsequent client identification, wherein composing the subsequent client identification instead of receiving the subsequent client identification as part of the customization payload preserves user customization elements are after the change of service provider due to no reset of the mobile communication device, and wherein each step in the method is performed by a client identification composition application stored on a non-transitory memory of the mobile communication device and executable by a processor of the mobile communication device.

Abstract
A mobile communication device. The mobile communication device comprises a radio transceiver to communicatively couple the mobile communication device to a radio access network by a wireless communication link, a memory, a processor, and an operating system. The mobile communication device further comprises a client identification composition application stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor at activation, blocks the activation of the mobile communication device, and after looks up the service provider identification, stores the service provider identification in the memory, composes a client identification (ID) based on the service provider identification, and stores the client identification, unblocks the activation of the mobile communication device.
