Abstract

A method, system and apparatus for maintaining a terminal profile of a mobile communication device. The system comprises a first network node operable to establish with the mobile communication device a wireless data path, to send to the mobile communication device via the wireless data path a terminal profile modification instruction and to receive from the mobile communication device via the wireless data path an acknowledgment. The terminal profile is communicated to a subscriber identity module operable to compare pending instructions to the terminal profile in order to identify and forward authorized instructions.
