And 313, the terminal performs package activation processing through the virtual SIM card operating system.

The terminal forwards the activation instruction to the Modem module through the virtual SIM card operating system and the virtual SIM card adapting layer, and the Modem module can feed back response information to the virtual SIM card activation instruction to the virtual SIM card operating system through the virtual SIM card adapting layer after receiving the activation instruction. After receiving the response information through the virtual SIM card operating system, the virtual SIM card basic data corresponding to the package activating instruction can be determined, and a message containing the virtual SIM card basic data is sent to the Modem module through the virtual SIM card adapting layer to instruct the Modem module to perform activating processing. The Modem module can be used for carrying out power-on processing on the basic data of the virtual SIM card. After the power-on is successful, the registration authentication information corresponding to the virtual SIM card can be read, and the registration authentication information is sent to a server and verified by the server.

In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, an information processing method is provided. In this embodiment, the information processing method is applied to a terminal, and an Android system is taken as an example for illustration. Referring to fig. 3, the method includes:

step 402, when receiving an activation instruction for a virtual SIM card through a virtual subscriber identity module SIM card operating system, monitoring broadcast information from a SIM state change event.

In this embodiment, the SIM status change event is an event for monitoring, adjusting, or notifying status information of the physical SIM card and the virtual SIM card. For example, the broadcast information of the SIM STATE change event may be broadcast information of an Android. The broadcast information includes the real-time status of the entity SIM card or the virtual SIM card. The identity, action, SIM _ STATE _ CHANGED can generate broadcast information according to a preset frequency, or generate broadcast information when the STATE of the virtual SIM card changes.

The terminal can start to monitor the broadcast information of the android. The state is a preset state experienced by the virtual SIM card in the process of activating the virtual SIM card.

In one embodiment, the terminal presets that the virtual SIM card undergoes a first state, a second state, a third state and a fourth state in sequence from the beginning of activation to the end of activation of the virtual SIM card. The first state indicates that the Modem module has not completed the power-on operation of the virtual SIM card, that is, the virtual SIM card has not been loaded. The second state represents that the Modem module finishes the power-on operation on the virtual SIM card, namely the virtual SIM card is loaded. The third state represents that the Modem module has read the IMSI of the virtual SIM card, and the fourth state represents that all data of the virtual SIM card has been read. Optionally, all data of the virtual SIM card is all basic data of the virtual SIM card.

And step 404, when the broadcast information contains a message that the virtual SIM card is changed from the first state to the second state, setting the preset virtual SIM card as the SIM card for network communication.

In this embodiment, before activating the virtual SIM card, the terminal may preset a SIM card slot occupied by the virtual SIM card when the virtual SIM card is used for network communication. The terminal can activate the card slot to bear the virtual SIM card for network communication through the virtual SIM card operating system, so that the virtual SIM card is set as the SIM card for network communication.

In one embodiment, the terminal may preset a keyword corresponding to each state, and different preset keywords represent states of different virtual SIM cards. The terminal can identify the keyword which is contained in the broadcast information and used for representing the state of the virtual SIM card through the virtual SIM card, and determine the state corresponding to the keyword. When the state represented by the keyword is the Nth state, the broadcast information is determined to contain the virtual SIM card, and the Nth state is changed from the N-1 th state to the Nth state. Wherein, N can be 2, 3 or 4.

Optionally, the first state, the second state, the third state and the fourth state may be respectively represented by "NOT _ READY", "IMSI" and "LOADED". When detecting that the keyword used for indicating the state of the virtual SIM card contained in the broadcast information is 'READY', judging that the broadcast information contains a message that the virtual SIM card is changed from the first state to the second state.

And step 406, when the broadcast information contains a message that the virtual SIM card is changed from the second state to the third state, setting the network type for network communication as the network type applicable to the virtual SIM card.

In this embodiment, setting the network type means setting the network type supported by the virtual SIM card, such as 3G (the 3rd Generation communication system), 4Gthe 4th Generation communication system) network type. The type of network to which the virtual SIM card is applicable may include a variety of types. Optionally, when it is detected by the virtual SIM operating system that the broadcast information only includes a key word "IMSI" for indicating the state of the virtual SIM card, it is determined that the broadcast information includes a message that the virtual SIM card changes from the second state to the third state.

And step 408, when the broadcast information contains a message that the virtual SIM card changes from the third state to the fourth state, configuring network parameters required for network communication by using the virtual SIM card.

In this embodiment, the network parameters include, but are not limited to, Access Point Name (APN) address information, data roaming information, and data switch information. Accordingly, configuring the network parameters includes configuring an APN address, turning on data roaming, and turning on a data switch. The terminal can set the APN address suitable for the virtual SIM card to carry out network communication through the virtual SIM card operating system, start the data roaming function of carrying out network communication by using the virtual SIM card and start the data switch of carrying out network communication by using the virtual SIM card. Alternatively, when it is detected by the virtual SIM card operating system that the broadcast information only includes a keyword "load" for indicating the state of the virtual SIM card, it is determined that the broadcast information includes a message that the virtual SIM card is changed from the third state to the fourth state.

In the information processing method, the preset virtual SIM card is set as the SIM card for network communication by monitoring the broadcast information from the SIM state change event and monitoring the message that the state of the corresponding virtual SIM card is changed into the second state; when the message is changed into the third state, setting the network type for network communication as the network type suitable for the virtual SIM card; when the message is changed into the fourth state, the network parameters required by the virtual SIM card for network communication are configured, so that the virtual SIM card is activated and validated, the virtual SIM card can be used for network communication, the entity SIM is not required to be plugged and replaced, and the convenience of network communication is improved.

In one embodiment, when the terminal sets a plurality of physical SIM cards, the terminal may determine, by the virtual SIM card operating system, the physical SIM card that the virtual SIM card to be activated needs to occupy, and store the cellular data corresponding to the determined physical SIM card.

In one embodiment, the terminal may detect whether a physical SIM card is present in a card slot previously configured for a virtual SIM card. Optionally, the terminal further presets a keyword for indicating an occupied state of the card slot, and different keywords indicate different occupied states of different card slots. For example, it may be arranged that "true" indicates the presence of a virtual card in the card slot and "false" indicates the absence of a virtual card in the card slot. Further, when there are multiple card slots, "0" may be set to indicate that card slot 1 is a virtual SIM card, "1" indicates that card slot 2 is a virtual SIM card, and none of the "1" card slots has a virtual SIM card.

Optionally, a keyword containing the status of the card slot may be returned to the virtual SIM card operating system through the Telephony interface. The terminal can obtain the occupation information of the card slot through the Telephony interface by the virtual SIM card operating system, and judges whether the physical SIM card exists in the card slot configured by the virtual SIM card or not according to the key words in the occupation information. If yes, further recording the cellular data of the entity SIM card in the terminal through the virtual SIM card operating system. Otherwise, listening for broadcast information from a SIM status change event may be performed directly. Alternatively, the terminal may store the cellular data of the physical SIM card in a system file through the virtual SIM card operating system. The file system refers to a storage space in the kernel of the terminal for storing the traffic statistic data for a long time, and can be located in the AP where the virtual SIM card operating system is located.

In one embodiment, the method further comprises: and when a closing instruction of the virtual SIM card is received through the virtual SIM card operating system, recovering the cellular data of the physical SIM card to the card slot.

In this embodiment, the shutdown instruction represents an instruction to shut down or suspend network communication using the activated virtual SIM card.

The terminal can read the pre-recorded cellular data of the entity SIM card through the virtual SIM card operating system, recover the cellular data of the entity SIM card and recover the network communication function of the corresponding entity SIM card again.

In one embodiment, the virtual SIM card operating system is set with corresponding permissions in advance, so that the virtual SIM card operating system can have the permissions to modify and set cellular data and perform database operation of APN. For example, the virtual SIM card operating system may be given system level privileges.

In one embodiment, when the virtual SIM card operating system detects that the traffic resource corresponding to the virtual SIM card is used up, a closing instruction for the virtual SIM card is triggered.

The traffic resource is provided by a virtual SIM card purchased in advance. The terminal can obtain the flow use statistical information of the virtual SIM card in real time through the virtual SIM card operating system, calculate the residual flow resource of the virtual SIM card according to the flow change statistical information and the flow resource, and when the residual flow resource is 0, the terminal indicates that the flow resource corresponding to the virtual SIM card is used up, so that a closing instruction of the virtual SIM card can be triggered.

The validity period may comprise a validity period of the package, such as 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or the like. The price represents information on the fee to be paid for purchasing the corresponding package.

The terminal can read the virtual SIM card data from a preset storage space for storing the corresponding virtual SIM card data through the virtual SIM card operating system. The storage area may be in the same storage space as the virtual SIM card operating system, for example, may be located in the AP, or may be located in a different storage space, for example, in a cache preset in the terminal or in a nonvolatile storage medium.

For example, the terminal may store corresponding virtual SIM card data in a system file through the virtual SIM card operating system, such as basic data of the virtual SIM card. The file system refers to a storage space in the kernel of the terminal for storing the traffic statistic data for a long time, and can be located in the AP where the virtual SIM card operating system is located.

In this embodiment, the message sent to the Modem module may include the read virtual SIM card data, and the message is used to instruct the Modem module to perform corresponding processing on the virtual SIM card basic data. For example, the Modem module may be instructed to perform processing such as activation and shutdown of the virtual SIM card according to the corresponding virtual SIM card data.

In one embodiment, the Modem module can complete the processing instructed by the virtual SIM card operating system by interacting with the virtual SIM card operating system; the processing instructed by the virtual SIM card operating system may also be done based on interactions with the external network. For example, the virtual SIM card may be powered up according to interaction with an external network (e.g., a cloud), and the virtual SIM card may be activated through interaction with the virtual SIM card operating system and the external network.

The terminal can complete the processing indicated by the virtual SIM card operating system through the Modem module and then can send the processing feedback information to the virtual SIM card operating system. The process feedback information includes a feedback result of the indicated process, such as process success or process failure.

In one embodiment, the terminal may be exposed via the virtual SIM card APP after receiving the processing feedback information via the virtual SIM card operating system. For example, if the processing feedback information is closing success information, the terminal sends the closing success information to the virtual SIM card APP through the Modem module, and indicates the virtual SIM card APP to be displayed. The virtual SIM card APP can display closing success information on a display interface of the terminal so that a user can know the closing success information.

In this embodiment, before activating the virtual SIM card, the cellular data of the physical SIM card is stored, and after closing the virtual SIM card, the cellular data of the physical SIM card is recovered, so that the influence on the physical SIM card can be reduced.

In one embodiment, after recording the cellular data of the physical SIM card in the terminal by the virtual subscriber identity module SIM card operating system, the method further comprises: and recording a fifth state through the Modem module, wherein the fifth state represents that the entity SIM card is in a state occupied by the virtual SIM card and is used for preventing the Modem module from loading the cellular data of the entity SIM card when restarting.

In this embodiment, there are multiple types of chips constituting the Modem module, and for some types of Modem modules, when the SIM card is switched and the operators are different, the system needs to load a new MBN, and restart the Modem module to take effect. Meanwhile, in the enabled state of the virtual card SIM channel, as long as the Modem module is restarted, the state of the virtual SIM card can be restored, namely the virtual SIM card is restarted to the state of the entity card forever. Therefore, when an entity card is inserted into the card slot, if the enabled virtual card corresponds to a different operator, the Modem module is restarted due to the need to load a new MBN, but the started virtual card is restored to the entity card after being restarted, so that the virtual card can never be successfully switched to the virtual SIM card. Wherein, MBN is an integration package file containing a set of efs, nv customized by a specific operator.

The state that the entity SIM card is occupied by the virtual SIM card is recorded at the side of the Modem module, so that the MBN of the virtual card is prevented from not loading data of the current entity SIM card when the MBN is switched and the Modem module is restarted, the MBN still keeps the MBN corresponding to the switched virtual card, and the situation that the honeycomb data of the entity SIM card is loaded when the Modem module is restarted, so that the activation of the virtual SIM card fails is prevented.

In one embodiment, before the recording of the fifth status by the Modem module, the method further includes: and detecting whether the chip type of the Modem module belongs to a preset chip type, and if so, recording a fifth state through the Modem module.

In this embodiment, since only some types of Modem modules have the above problem, the terminal may record the chip type (i.e., the preset chip type) of the Modem module having the above problem in advance, and detect whether the chip type of the current Modem module belongs to the preset chip type, if so, record the fifth state through the Modem module, otherwise, directly monitor the broadcast information from the SIM state change event without making a corresponding change to the Modem module.

In an embodiment, a corresponding white list may be further set for the chip type of the Modem module without the above problem, and the chip type without the above problem is stored in the white list. And detecting whether the chip type of the current Modem module exists in the white list or not, if so, directly monitoring the broadcast information from the SIM state change event without making corresponding change on the Modem module, and otherwise, recording a fifth state through the Modem module.

In this embodiment, the fifth state is recorded for the Modem module, where the fifth state represents that the entity SIM card is in a state occupied by the virtual SIM card, and is used to prevent the Modem module from loading the cellular data of the entity SIM card when restarting, so that the success rate of activating the virtual SIM card can be improved.

In one embodiment, before step S402, the method further includes a process of activating a reminder by the virtual SIM card. As shown in fig. 5, the process includes:

step 502, obtaining a mobile signal country code MCC corresponding to the current mobile communication network.

A Mobile Country Code (MCC) is a number that is uniformly managed and allocated by the international telecommunications union and is used to uniquely identify a Country to which a terminal belongs. MCCs in different countries or regions are different, for example, MCC in the continental region of china is 460. Generally, an entity SIM card in a terminal carries an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) Number, and the IMSI Number records effective information for distinguishing a Mobile Subscriber, including MCC and the like. For example, if the user purchases the physical SIM card in continental china, the MCC in the IMSI number of the physical SIM card is 460.

When the terminal detects the mobile communication network, it can detect the operator information of the current mobile communication network. The method specifically comprises the following steps: the terminal can obtain the operator information of the current mobile communication network through CTTelephonyNetworkInfo and CTCarrier type in CoreTelephony Framework. The CTCarrier type may represent operator information of a current Mobile communication Network, the terminal may obtain the CTCarrier type by calling a subscriber cellular provider in a cttelephonynetwork info, the CTCarrier type records an MCC and a Mobile Network number (MNC) of the current Mobile communication Network, and the MNC is a number for identifying the Mobile communication Network. The terminal can also call the subscriber cellular providerddUpdateNotifier to detect whether the operator information of the current mobile communication network changes.

Step 504, detecting whether there is a traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC in the traffic resources stored in the terminal.

The traffic resource is provided by a virtual SIM card purchased in advance. After acquiring the current MCC, the terminal may acquire the stored traffic resources, and detect whether the stored traffic resources exist in the traffic resources corresponding to the current MCC. Specifically, whether the traffic resources supporting the current country/region exist in the traffic resources stored by the terminal is detected. The method for detecting whether the traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC exists in the traffic resources stored by the terminal comprises the following steps: detecting whether a traffic resource name corresponding to a traffic resource stored by a terminal comprises a country/region corresponding to the current MCC or not; or detecting whether the MCC corresponding to the traffic resource stored in the terminal includes the current MCC.

When the terminal detects that the current MCC changes, it can detect whether there is a traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC in the stored traffic resources.

Step 506, if yes, displaying information that can activate the traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC on the terminal interface in a first preset mode.

When the traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC exists in the traffic resources stored in the terminal, the traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC is acquired, and information capable of activating the traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC is displayed on a terminal interface in a first preset mode. Optionally, the traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC is displayed in a first preset manner on the terminal interface. Wherein, displaying on the terminal interface comprises: displayed on an application program interface, displayed on a notification bar, displayed on a desktop, and the like. Specifically, the terminal may display the traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC on an application program interface, push the traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC to a notification bar for display, or pop up and display the traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC on a desktop. Displaying in a first preset manner includes at least one of:

After the country/region name corresponding to the current MCC is obtained, the traffic resource name corresponding to the traffic resource stored in the terminal can be obtained. The terminal can detect whether the traffic resource name corresponding to the stored traffic resource contains the country/region name corresponding to the current MCC. When it is detected that the traffic resource name corresponding to the stored traffic resource includes the country/region name corresponding to the current MCC, it is determined that the traffic resource corresponding to the traffic resource name including the country/region name corresponding to the current MCC is the traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC. For example, the country name corresponding to the MCC208 is france, and when the terminal detects that the current MCC is 208, it detects that the traffic resource name corresponding to the stored traffic resource includes "french roaming 7-day package", and then the traffic resource corresponding to "french roaming 7-day package" is the traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC.

(2) Detecting whether the current MCC is the same as the MCC corresponding to the stored flow resource; if the two types of traffic resources are the same, the traffic resource corresponding to the current MCC exists in the traffic resources stored by the terminal.
