[0053] In a first aspect of the application, a profile switching failure recovery method is provided, which combines Figure 1 , including four steps S1 to S4:

[0054] S1: The embedded SIM card terminal receives the operation of the user initiating the start of the profile switching process.

[0055] Specifically, in the embodiments of the application, the user initiates the start of the profile switching process on the embedded SIM card terminal, and the embedded SIM card terminal receives the operation of the user initiating the start of the profile switching process.

[0056] S2: The base station detects that the embedded SIM card terminal reports profile switching failure information in UAI.

[0057] Specifically, in the embodiments of the application, the embedded SIM card terminal reports the profile switching failure information in UAI when the profile switching fails, and the base station detects that the embedded SIM card terminal reports the profile switching failure information in UAI.

[0058] S3: The base station detects whether there is control information in the profile information after the switching, whether the new profile authentication information has been successfully completed, and whether there is network attachment completion information.

[0059] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the base station detects whether there is control information in the profile information after the switching, whether the new profile authentication information has been successfully completed, and whether there is network attachment completion information.

[0060] S4: If the detection result is that there is no control information in the profile information after the switching, that the new profile authentication information has not been successfully completed, and that there is no network attachment completion information, the base station determines whether to issue a command to operate on the original profile or to issue a command to continue to switch to the new profile according to the profile switching failure information reported by the embedded SIM card terminal in the UAI and the air interface resource condition of the base station.

[0061] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the base station determines whether to issue a command to operate on the original profile or to issue a command to continue to switch to the new profile according to the detection result, the UAI, and the air interface resource condition of the base station.

[0062] Figure 2 A profile switching failure recovery method is provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 2 .

[0063] Further, in the profile switching failure recovery method, the base station determines whether to issue a command to operate on the original profile or to issue a command to continue to switch to the new profile according to the profile switching failure information reported by the embedded SIM card terminal in the UAI and the air interface resource condition of the base station, and the method comprises two steps of S21 and S22. Figure 3

[0064] S21: If the air interface resource is idle, the profile switching failure information in the UAI is received, and the original profile resource is not occupied, the embedded SIM card terminal continues to operate on the original profile.

[0065] S22: The profile switching command is continuously issued to guide the embedded SIM card terminal to switch to the new profile to operate.

[0066] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, because of the profile switching failure, the original profile is continuously used, and the base station reissues the profile switching command to realize the new profile switching.

[0067] Here, if the air interface resource is not idle, the above steps are waited until the air interface resource is idle.​

[0068] Figure 3 A recovery method for profile switching failure Figure 4 .

[0069] Further, in the recovery method for profile switching failure, the base station determines whether to issue an instruction to perform service operation on the original profile or to issue an instruction to perform service operation on the new profile according to the profile switching failure information reported by the embedded SIM card terminal in the UAI and the air interface resource condition of the base station. Figure 4 , comprising two steps S31 and S32:

[0070] S31: If there is free air interface resource, the new profile failure information in the UAI is received, and the original profile resource is released or occupied.

[0071] S32: The profile rollback instruction is issued to guide the embedded SIM card terminal to rollback to the original profile for service operation, and the user is sent the profile switching failure prompt information.

[0072] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, after the profile switching failure, the original profile resource is released or occupied, so that the original profile continues to be used, at the same time, the base station reissues the profile rollback signaling, and preferentially performs service operation on the original profile, and prompts the user that the profile switching is not suitable at present.

[0073] Here, if there is no free air interface resource, the above steps are waited until the air interface resource is free.

[0074] Further, the recovery method for profile switching failure further comprises:

[0076] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the base station detects whether there is control information in the configuration file information after switching, whether the new configuration file authentication information has been successfully completed, and whether there is network attachment completion information. The detection result is that there is no control information in the configuration file information after switching. The base station determines whether to issue a command to operate on the original configuration file or to issue a command to continue switching to the new configuration file according to the configuration file switching failure information reported by the embedded SIM card terminal in the UAI and the air interface resource condition of the base station. Here, there are two cases: the first case is that if there is free air interface resource, the configuration file switching failure information in the UAI is received, and the original configuration file resource is not occupied. The embedded SIM card terminal continues to operate on the original configuration file. The configuration file switching command is continuously issued to guide the embedded SIM card terminal to switch to the new configuration file to operate.

The configuration file rollback command is issued to guide the embedded SIM card terminal to rollback to the original configuration file to operate, and the user is sent the configuration file switching failure prompt information.

[0077] Further, the above-mentioned configuration file switching failure recovery method further comprises:

[0078] If the detection result is that the new configuration file authentication information has not been successfully completed and there is no network attachment completion information in the configuration file information after switching, the base station determines whether to issue a command to operate on the original configuration file or to issue a command to continue switching to the new configuration file according to the configuration file switching failure information reported by the embedded SIM card terminal in the UAI and the air interface resource condition of the base station.

[0079] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the base station detects whether there is control information in the configuration file information after switching, whether the new configuration file authentication information has been successfully completed, and whether there is network attachment completion information. The detection result is that there is no successfully completed new configuration file authentication information and no network attachment completion information in the configuration file information after switching. The base station determines whether to issue a command to perform service operation on the original configuration file or to issue a command to perform service operation on the new configuration file according to the configuration file switching failure information reported by the embedded SIM card terminal in the UAI and the air interface resource condition of the base station. Here, two cases are included. The first case is that if there is idle air interface resource, the configuration file switching failure information in the UAI is received, and the original configuration file resource is not occupied. The embedded SIM card terminal continues to perform service operation on the original configuration file. The configuration file switching command is continuously issued to guide the embedded SIM card terminal to switch to the new configuration file to perform service operation. The second case is that if there is idle air interface resource, the new configuration file failure information in the UAI is received, and the original configuration file resource is released or occupied. The configuration file rollback command is issued to guide the embedded SIM card terminal to rollback to the original configuration file to perform service operation, and the user is sent the configuration file switching failure prompt information.

[0080] Further, the above-mentioned configuration file switching failure recovery method further comprises:

[0081] If the detection result is that there is control information in the configuration file information after switching, and there is successfully completed new configuration file authentication information and network attachment completion information, the configuration file switching has been successfully completed.
