Abstract

Various example embodiments relating to an electronic device are described. According to an example embodiment, an electronic device may include: a display; communication circuitry; a memory comprising an embedded subscriber identity module configured to store first information associated with a first communication connection for downloading first subscriber identity information by accessing at least one communication service providing server; and a processor operatively connected to the display, the communication circuitry, and the memory, wherein the processor may be configured to control the electronic device to establish the first communication connection for downloading first data including the first subscriber identity information based on the first information using the communication circuitry, to terminate the first communication connection and transmit and/or receive the first data by establishing a second communication connection based on a second subscriber identity information upon receiving a request to transmit and/or receive data not including the first subscriber identity information during the first communication connection.
