• the invention consists in going against this usual teaching, in order to surprisingly divert the dialogue between cell phone and the card inserted in the reader, in order to make it fulfill a new function for which it was not designed. , local and off-network device for the operation of a medical information card.
• the use of the mobile phone as a universal reader is based on the ability to "take hold" of the phone.
• the originality of the process lies, among other things, in diverting the telephone from its object, bypassing the authentication and connection phases to a mobile telephone network, and by piloting with the SIM-ToolKit application developed on the card. display and sequence of menus on the telephone.
• the SIM-lock is the operation which restricts the use of the phone to only SIM cards distributed by the operator who supplied the phone.
• One way to bypass the SIM-lock, and take the hand, is to use the test mode of the phone. For most models, the test mode is obtained by replacing in the IMSI the codes identifying the operator, MCC and MNC, respectively by "001" and "01".
• IMSI International Mobile Subscriber Identity
• the IMSI is stored on the SIM card in an elementary file (“Elementary File "or EF) EF IMSI .
• Elementary File "or EF) EF IMSI When initializing the SIM card (when the terminal is switched on), the terminal chooses the dedicated EF GSM file and requests the preferred language. If this EF is not available or if the languages are not supported, the terminal chooses a default language. It then executes the CHVl verification procedure (password associated with the SIM card).
