Abstract
Embodiments described herein relate to wireless communications, including methods and apparatus for configuring synthetic electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) profiles for wireless devices based on user credentials. A synthetic eSIM profile is generated at a wireless device based on transformation of user credentials that include a user identity and user cryptographic information. The user identity can include an identifier for a user account, and the user cryptographic information can include a password for the user account. The wireless devices can use the synthetic eSIM profile to obtain and load one or more fully functional eSIM profiles to an embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC) to without requiring a bootstrap eSIM profile or non-cellular wireless access.
