Method and terminal device for keeping subscriber identity module card in standby state
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a terminal device, an enabling request, wherein the enabling request is used for requesting simultaneous standby of a first subscriber identity module (SIM) card and a second SIM card in the terminal device, wherein the first SIM card is a software-implemented SiM card, and wherein the second SIM card is a hardware implemented SIM card;
implementing, by the terminal device, a first SIM card network access process by interacting with a SIM card control module in the terminal device to complete a first network access process of the first SIM card using a data file of the first SIM card; and
implementing, by the terminal device, a standby process by maintaining the first SIM card and the second SIM card in the standby state at a same time according to the enabling request, wherein the second subscriber identity module card has already accessed a network; and
invoking, by the terminal device, a third-party invocation interface provided by an operating system of the terminal device, wherein the first SIM card interacts with the SIM card control module through the third-party invocation interface using a SIM mobile equipment (SIM-ME) function of the third-party invocation interface.

Abstract
A method and a terminal device for keeping a subscriber identity module card in a standby state are provided. The method for keeping a subscriber identity module card in a standby state includes receiving, by a terminal device, an enabling request, where the enabling request is used for requesting simultaneous standby of a first subscriber identity module card and a second subscriber identity module card; invoking a third-party invocation interface provided by an operating system of the terminal device; performing interaction with a subscriber identity module card control module, so as to complete a network access process of the first subscriber identity module card on the basis of a data file of the first subscriber identity module card; and keeping the first subscriber identity module card and the second subscriber identity module card in a standby state at the same time according to the enabling request.

8. A terminal device, comprising:
-
a first (SIM) card interface and a SIM card control module, wherein the first SIM card interface is configured to receive an enabling request, wherein the enabling request is used for requesting simultaneous standby of a first SIM card and a second SIM card in the terminal device, wherein the first SIM card is software-implemented and the second SIM card is hardware-implemented, wherein the first SIM card interface is configured to send the enabling request to the SIM card control module to complete a first network access process of the first SIM card using a data file of the first SIM card, wherein the SIM card control module is configured to receive the enabling request sent by the first SIM card interface and implement a standby process to maintain both the first SIM card and the second SIM card in a standby state at a same time according to the enabling request after the first network access process of the first SIM card is completed, wherein the second subscriber identity module card has already accessed a network, and wherein the first SIM card interface is configured to invoke a third-party invocation interface provided by an operating system of the terminal device, and perform interaction with the SIM card control module through the third-party invocation interface with a SIM mobile equipment (SIM-ME) function to complete the first network access process of the first SIM card using the data file of the first SIM card. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
