Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a detection method, device, electronic device and storage medium for a physical SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card. Background Art

[0002] The eSIM (embeded Subscriber Identity Module) card is a virtual SIM card that can be downloaded to electronic devices via the Internet. The functionality of an eSIM card is the same as that of an ordinary physical SIM card, allowing users to use electronic devices to make calls, send and receive text messages, access the Internet, etc. without inserting a physical SIM card. For electronic devices, the same card slot can correspond to a physical SIM card and an eSIM card, but the physical SIM card and the eSIM card cannot be enabled at the same time. When the eSIM card is enabled, when a card insertion operation is detected on the card slot corresponding to the eSIM card, it will trigger an operation to detect whether there is a physical SIM card in the card slot. If there is a physical SIM card in the card slot, a pop-up window will prompt that the eSIM card and the physical SIM card cannot be used at the same time.

[0003] In the related art, when detecting whether there is a physical SIM card in the card slot corresponding to the eSIM card, it is necessary to first power off the eSIM card and then power on the physical SIM card. If the physical SIM card is powered on successfully, it is determined that there is a physical SIM card in the card slot.

[0004] However, during the above detection process, if the eSIM card is performing a profile operation, such as downloading, activating, deactivating, deleting, etc., the profile operation performed by the eSIM card fails because the eSIM card has been powered off. Summary of the invention

[0005] The embodiments of the present application provide a physical SIM card detection method, device, electronic device, and storage medium, which can avoid the failure of a profile operation performed by an eSIM card when performing physical SIM card detection when an eSIM card is enabled.

[0006] An embodiment of the present application provides a SIM card detection method, the method comprising: when an eSIM card in the card slot is in an enabled state, the electronic device detects a card insertion operation on the card slot, when the card insertion operation is detected on the card slot, obtaining operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card, when the operation type information indicates that the operation currently performed by the eSIM card is a profile operation, the electronic device keeps the eSIM card powered on, and does not perform a detection operation on the physical SIM card in the card slot.

[0007] The operation type includes profile operation and non-profile operation, etc. The operation type information is information that can indicate the operation currently being performed by the electronic identification.

[0008] The method provided in the embodiment of the present application does not forcibly power off the eSIM card when the eSIM card in the card slot is in an enabled state and a card insertion operation is detected in the card slot. Instead, it determines whether the eSIM card is currently executing a profile operation. If the eSIM card is currently executing a profile operation, the eSIM card is kept powered on, thereby avoiding the failure of the executed profile operation due to the power-off of the eSIM card.

[0009] In a possible implementation of the present application, after the electronic device keeps the eSIM card powered on and does not perform a detection operation on the physical SIM card in the card slot, the LPA (Local Profile Assistant) in the electronic device will also detect whether the profile operation performed by the eSIM card is completed. When it is detected that the eSIM card has completed the profile operation, updated operation type information is generated, and the electronic device obtains the updated operation type information of the eSIM card. In response to the updated operation type information indicating that the eSIM card is not currently performing the profile operation, the electronic device powers off the eSIM card, and in response to the eSIM card being powered off successfully, the electronic device performs a detection operation on the physical SIM card in the card slot.

[0010] The method provided in the embodiment of the present application continuously detects the profile operation currently executed by the eSIM card after the eSIM card currently executes the profile operation without powering off the eSIM card. When it is detected that the eSIM card has completed the profile operation, the operation type information of the eSIM card is updated, so that the electronic device can control the eSIM card to power off based on the updated operation type information, thereby realizing the detection of the physical SIM card.

[0011] In another possible implementation of the present application, when the operation type information indicates that the eSIM card is not currently performing a profile operation, the electronic device powers off the eSIM card. In response to the eSIM card being powered off successfully, the electronic device performs a detection operation on the physical SIM card in the card slot.

[0012] The method provided in the embodiment of the present application controls the eSIM card to be powered off when the eSIM card is not currently performing a profile operation, thereby realizing detection of the physical SIM card.

[0013] In another possible implementation of the present application, when the electronic device obtains the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card, it can receive an indication message sent by the LPA containing the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card, and then obtain it from the indication message; the electronic device can also query the parameter value of the target configuration parameter of the LPA, and then determine the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card according to the parameter value of the target configuration parameter.

[0014] The target configuration parameter may be a parameter of the prop item. LPA is used to manage the eSIM card. By interacting with LPA, the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card can be obtained, so as to determine whether to power off the eSIM card based on the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card, so as to avoid the profile operation being unable to be performed normally due to the power off of the eSIM card.

[0015] In another possible implementation of the present application, the electronic device determines the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card based on the parameter value of the target configuration parameter. Specifically, when the parameter value of the target configuration parameter is a first value, the electronic device determines that the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card is profile operation information; when the parameter value of the target configuration parameter is a second value, the electronic device determines that the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card is non-profile operation information.

[0016] The first value and the second value can be set by a technician and can be in the form of a string, for example, the first value is true and the second value is false; they can also be in the form of a number, for example, the first value can be 1 and the second value can be 2, etc.

[0017] The method provided in the embodiment of the present application sets different parameter values ​​for the target configuration items and assigns different meanings to different parameter values, so that the electronic device can determine the operation currently performed by the electronic device according to the parameter value of the target configuration parameter.

[0018] In another possible implementation of the present application, when the electronic device performs a detection operation on the physical SIM card on the card slot, the electronic device first switches the enabling card on the card slot to the physical SIM card. In response to the enabling card on the card slot being successfully switched to the physical SIM card, the electronic device then powers on the physical SIM card. In response to the successful power-on of the physical SIM card, the electronic device determines that there is a physical SIM card in the card slot, and then powers off the physical SIM card. In response to the successful power-off of the physical SIM card, the electronic device switches the enabling card on the card slot to the eSIM card. In response to the successful switching of the enabling card on the card slot to the eSIM card, the electronic device powers on the eSIM card to enable the eSIM card.

[0019] The method provided in the embodiment of the present application detects whether there is a physical SIM card in the card slot by powering on the physical SIM card. If there is a physical SIM card in the card slot, the physical SIM card can be powered on successfully. Otherwise, even if the enabling card in the card slot is switched to a physical SIM card, if there is no physical SIM card in the card slot, the physical SIM card cannot be powered on successfully, thereby providing a method for detecting a physical SIM card.

[0020] In another possible implementation of the present application, when the electronic device detects that there is a physical SIM card in the card slot and powers on the eSIM card, it will also generate a prompt message, which is used to prompt that the physical SIM card and the eSIM card cannot be used at the same time.

[0021] The method provided in the embodiment of the present application, when the eSIM card is in an enabled state, if it is detected that a physical SIM card is inserted into the card slot, the cards required to be enabled at this time include not only the eSIM card but also the physical SIM card. Since the eSIM card and the physical SIM card on the same card slot cannot be enabled at the same time, a prompt message is generated to remind the user that the physical SIM card and the eSIM card cannot be used at the same time, so that the user can choose one to use to obtain the corresponding service.

[0022] In a second aspect, a physical SIM card detection device is provided. The device includes at least one module. The at least one module is used to implement the physical SIM card detection method provided by the first aspect and possible implementations thereof.

[0023] In a third aspect, an electronic device is provided, comprising a processor and a memory; the memory stores at least one program code; the at least one program code is used to be called and executed by the processor to implement the detection method of the physical identity module SIM card described in the first aspect.

[0024] In a fourth aspect, a computer-readable storage medium is provided, wherein at least one computer program is stored in the computer-readable storage medium, and when the at least one computer program is executed by a processor, the method for detecting a physical identity module SIM card described in the first aspect can be implemented.

[0025] In a fifth aspect, a computer program product is provided, the computer program product comprising a computer program, and when the computer program is executed by a processor, the method for detecting a physical identity module SIM card described in the first aspect can be implemented.

[0034] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solution of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the specific embodiments of the present application and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0035] It should be noted that the user information (including but not limited to user device information, user personal information, etc.) and data (including but not limited to data used for analysis, stored data, displayed data, etc.) involved in this application are all information and data authorized by the user or fully authorized by all parties, and the collection, use and processing of relevant data must comply with the relevant laws, regulations and standards of the relevant countries and regions, and provide corresponding operation entrances for users to choose to authorize or refuse.

[0036] It should also be noted that the terms "include", "comprises" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, commodity or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, commodity or device. In the absence of more restrictions, the elements defined by the sentence "comprises a ..." do not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, commodity or device including the elements.

[0037] Before executing the embodiments of the present application, the terms involved in the embodiments of the present application are first explained.

[0038] As the core module for managing profiles on the eUICC (embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card), LPA is responsible for downloading encrypted profiles to the eUICC and providing users with a local management user interface so that users can manage the profile status on the eUICC.

[0039] Profile, also known as a configuration file, refers to a collection of various data and applications used on the eUICC to provide various services, such as voice services or data services. According to some embodiments, the profile is signed or subscribed by the user and the relevant mobile operator to provide user network services. According to some embodiments, the profile may include system files, such as MF, EF, DF; applications, such as network access applications NAA, security domain names Security Domain and other non-communication services; and profile metadata, such as Profile Policy Rules; and the mobile network operator's security domain name Mobile Network Operator-SD, such as providing OTA services.

[0040] Modem: Modem, commonly known as "cat", is a communication module used in electronic devices. In some embodiments, the modem sends instructions (usually standard AT commands) through the upper-level processing system to realize data transmission with the wireless network. In some embodiments, the network standards (GSM, CDMA, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, etc.) supported by the electronic device are determined by it. In some embodiments, the modem in the electronic device can be understood as the baseband chip in the electronic device. In some implementations, the modem can also be understood as the control software corresponding to the baseband chip in the electronic device, such as the modem protocol stack. In some embodiments, the modem described in the present application can be a physical chip, such as integrated on a baseband chip or a baseband processor, or it can be implemented in software through an operating system, an eSIM management module, etc.

[0041] The Qcril module is developed by various chip manufacturers and specifies the specific processing logic of each chip manufacturer for upper layer requests. For example, some chip manufacturers convert upper layer requests into AT commands and send them to the modem for processing through AT Channel. Other chip manufacturers encapsulate the requests from the upper layer into qmi messages and then send the qmi messages to the modem for processing.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 , which shows a system architecture diagram of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device is configured with at least one card slot, the card slot supports a physical SIM card and an eSIM card, and the electronic device can be a smart phone, a smart TV, a wearable device, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), a POS (Point of Sales), a vehicle terminal, etc. The electronic device includes a SIM card management module, an LPA, a Qcril module, a Modem, etc. Among them, the SIM card management module and the LPA belong to the upper-layer functional modules, and the Qcril module and the Modem belong to the lower-layer functional modules.

[0043] Specifically, the SIM card management module is used to manage the SIM cards supported by each card slot of the electronic device, and the SIM cards include physical SIM cards and / or eSIM cards. The management refers to determining the enabled card on the card slot based on the user's touch operation on the switch option of the physical SIM card or the switch option of the eSIM card corresponding to any card slot on the SIM card management interface; and performing corresponding profile operations based on the user's touch operation on the profile operation option corresponding to the eSIM card. Among them, the profile operation options include profile download options, profile activation options, profile deactivation options, profile deletion options, etc. The profile download option is used to download the profile corresponding to the eSIM card; the profile activation option is used to activate the downloaded profile so that the eSIM card can be used normally; the profile deactivation option is used to deactivate the activated profile to invalidate the downloaded profile; the profile deletion option is used to delete the downloaded profile.

[0044] The LPA is used to manage the profiles related to the eSIM card, including receiving a profile operation request sent by the SIM card management module and performing corresponding profile operations. For example, the SIM card management module detects a user's touch operation on a profile download option, generates a profile download request, and sends the profile download request to the LPA. In response to the profile download request, the LPA performs a profile download operation; the SIM card management module detects a user's touch operation on a profile activation option, generates a profile activation request, and sends the profile activation request to the LPA. In response to the profile activation request, the LPA performs a profile activation operation; the SIM card management module detects a user's touch operation on a profile deactivation option, generates a profile deactivation request, and sends the profile deactivation request to the LPA. In response to the profile deactivation request, the LPA performs a profile deactivation operation; the SIM card management module detects a user's touch operation on a profile deletion option, generates a profile deletion request, and sends the profile deletion request to the LPA. In response to the profile deletion request, the LPA performs a profile deletion operation. LPA is also used to indicate the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card to the underlying Qcril module. When indicating the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card, LPA can send an indication message to the Qcril module so that the underlying Qcril module can obtain the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card; LPA can also set different parameter values ​​for the target configuration parameters according to the operation currently performed by the eSIM card, so that the Qcril module can query the parameter value of the target configuration parameter to obtain the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card. By indicating the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card, the underlying Qcril module can determine whether to power off the eSIM card based on the received operation type information to execute the detection process of the physical SIM card.

[0045] As a communication bridge between LPA and Modem, the Qcril module can receive the indication message sent by LPA, and then determine whether to power off the eSIM card based on the received indication message to execute the detection process of the physical SIM card; it can also query the parameter value of the target configuration parameter of LPA, and then determine whether to power off the eSIM card based on the parameter value of the queried target configuration parameter to execute the detection process of the physical SIM card.

[0046] The modem is used to detect a card insertion operation on any card slot, and when a card insertion operation on any card slot is detected, a card insertion message is generated and reported, thereby triggering the execution of a detection process for a physical SIM card.

[0047] It should be noted that although the system architecture diagram of the electronic device provided by the relevant technology may also include Figure 1 The various functional modules shown in the figure, but the functions that can be implemented by the various functional modules in the related art are different from those in the embodiments of the present application, especially the Qcril module, which does not directly power off the eSIM card after receiving the card insertion message sent by the Modem, but determines whether to power off the eSIM card according to the operation currently performed by the eSIM card, thereby executing the detection process of the physical SIM card. It is precisely because of the execution of the above judgment logic that the failure of the profile operation due to the power off of the eSIM card is avoided, thereby ensuring the smooth execution of the profile operation.

[0048] Regarding the physical SIM card detection process of the related technology, the following will be combined with Figure 2 See Figure 2, a card slot (e.g., SIM2 card slot) of an electronic device supports a physical SIM card and an eSIM card, wherein the eSIM card is in an enabled state on the card slot, and the eSIM card is performing a profile operation (e.g., downloading, activating, deactivating, deleting, etc.). When the eSIM card is in an enabled state, the modem detects a card insertion operation on the card slot, generates a card insertion message, and reports the card insertion message to the Qcril module. After receiving the card insertion message, the Qcril module triggers the execution of a detection operation on the physical card in the card slot. Specifically, the Qcril module sends an eSIM card power-off message to the Modem. In response to the received eSIM card power-off message, the Modem performs the eSIM card power-off operation. When the eSIM card is successfully powered off, the Modem generates an eSIM card power-off success message and sends the eSIM card power-off success message to the Qcril module. In response to the received eSIM card power-off success message, the Qcril module sends a physical SIM card switching message to the Modem. In response to the physical SIM card switching message, the Modem switches the enabling card on the card slot to the physical SIM card. After the switch is successful, the Modem generates The Qcril module receives a switching success message, and sends the switching success message to the Qcril module. In response to the switching success message, the Qcril module sends a physical SIM card power-on message to the Modem. In response to the received physical SIM card power-on message, the Modem powers on the physical SIM card. After the power-on is successful, the Modem generates a physical SIM card power-on success message, and sends the physical SIM card power-on success message to the Qcril module. In response to the received physical SIM card power-on success message, the Qcril module can determine that there is a physical SIM card on the card slot, and then the Qcril module restores the eSIM card enabled state. Specifically, the Qcril module sends an eSIM card switching message to the Modem. In response to the eSIM card switching message, the Modem switches the enabled card on the card slot to the eSIM card. After the switching is successful, the Modem generates a switching success message, and sends the switching success message to the Qcril module. In response to the switching success message, the Qcril module sends an eSIM card power-on message to the Modem. In response to the received eSIM card power-on message, the Modem powers on the eSIM card.

[0049] During the above-mentioned detection process of the physical SIM card, after the Qcril module receives the card insertion message, it immediately triggers the power-off operation of the eSIM card. At this time, the eSIM card is executing the profile operation. After the eSIM card is powered off, the profile operation fails due to lack of power supply.

[0050] An exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a detection method for a SIM card. Figure 1The electronic device shown in the figure performs the embodiment of the present application as an example. The electronic device is configured with at least one card slot. All or part of the at least one card slot supports physical SIM cards and eSIM cards. The method provided in the embodiment of the present application is for the card slot that can support physical SIM cards and eSIM cards. See Figure 3 , the method flow provided in the embodiment of the present application includes:

[0051] 301. When an embedded identity recognition module eSIM card in a card slot is in an enabled state, the electronic device detects a card insertion operation in the card slot.

[0052] In an embodiment of the present application, the SIM card management interface of the electronic device displays at least one SIM card slot configured in the electronic device, the physical SIM card and / or eSIM card supported by each card slot, and the switch option of the eSIM card. When the physical SIM card is not inserted in the card slot, the eSIM card can be switched between an enabled state and a disabled state by touching the switch option of the eSIM card. For example, if a physical SIM card is not inserted in a card slot, if the switch option of the eSIM card corresponding to the card slot is in a closed state, the eSIM card is in a disabled state at this time. When a touch operation on the switch option is detected, the switch option is in an open state, and the eSIM card is in an enabled state on the card slot. It should be noted that the so-called enabled state refers to the state in which the card slot circuit supplies power to the SIM card circuit. For example, the eSIM enabled state refers to the state in which the card slot circuit supplies power to the eSIM card circuit; the physical SIM enabled state refers to the state in which the card slot circuit supplies power to the physical SIM card circuit.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present application, the modem in the electronic device detects the card insertion operation on the card slot, including but not limited to: detecting the card insertion operation on the card slot based on a sensor provided on the card slot.

[0054] 302. When a card insertion operation is detected in the card slot, the electronic device obtains operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card.

[0055] The operation type includes a profile operation and a non-profile operation. The operation type information is information that can indicate the operation type. When the modem detects a card insertion operation on the card slot, it generates a card insertion message and sends the card insertion message to the Qcril module. In response to the card insertion message, the Qcril module obtains the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card. Specifically, when the Qcril module obtains the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card, multiple methods can be used.

[0056] The first method is that the Qcril module receives an indication message sent by the local configuration assistant LPA, and the indication message includes the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card. Among them, the timing of the indication message sent by LPA can be sent when the eSIM card is detected to perform an operation, or when the Qcril module receives a card insertion message and sends a query request to LPA. When LPA receives the query request, it sends an indication message to the Qcril module. Of course, LPA can also send indication messages to the Qcril module at other times, which will not be explained here one by one. Among them, LPA can send the indication message through the AIDL interface when sending the indication message.

[0057] In the second method, the Qcril module queries the parameter value of the target configuration parameter of the LPA, and determines the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card according to the parameter value of the target configuration parameter. Among them, the parameter value of the target configuration parameter includes a first value and a second value. When the parameter value of the target configuration parameter is the first value, the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card is determined to be profile operation information; when the parameter value of the target configuration parameter is the second value, the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card is determined to be non-profile operation information. For example, the target configuration parameter is a prop item, the first value is true, and the second value is false. When the Qcril module obtains the prop item as true, it is determined that the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card is profile operation information; when the Qcril module obtains the prop item as false, it is determined that the operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card is non-profile operation information.

[0058] 303. When the operation type information indicates that the operation currently executed by the eSIM card is a profile operation, the electronic device keeps the eSIM card powered on and does not perform a detection operation on the physical SIM card in the card slot.

[0059] When the operation type information indicates that the operation currently performed by the eSIM card is a profile operation, the Qcril module keeps the eSIM card in a powered-on state and temporarily does not perform the detection operation of the physical SIM card in the card slot, thereby avoiding the failure of the profile operation due to lack of power function.

[0060] Furthermore, after determining that the eSIM card is currently executing a profile operation, the LPA in the electronic device will continue to detect the execution status of the profile operation. When it is detected that the eSIM card has completed the profile operation, the LPA generates updated operation type information. When the updated operation type information is generated, the LPA can actively send a new indication message to the Qcril module so that the Qcril module obtains the updated operation type information of the eSIM card; the LPA can also wait for the Qcril module to send a new indication message to the Qcril module when sending a query request again, so that the Qcril module obtains the updated operation type information of the eSIM card. If the operation type information is reflected by the parameter value of the target configuration parameter, after the LPA detects that the eSIM card has completed the profile operation, it can generate updated operation type information by changing the parameter value of the target configuration parameter, for example, changing the parameter value of the target configuration parameter from the first value to the second value. Accordingly, the Qcril module obtains the updated operation type information of the eSIM card by querying the parameter value of the target configuration parameter in the LPA.

[0061] Further, in response to the updated operation type information indicating that the eSIM card is not currently performing a profile operation, the Qcril module powers off the eSIM card. In response to the eSIM card being powered off successfully, a detection operation is performed on the physical SIM card in the card slot.

[0062] The above-mentioned detection operation of the physical SIM card on the card slot is implemented through the interaction between the Qcril module and the Modem, specifically including: the Qcril module sends a physical SIM card switching message to the Modem, and in response to the physical SIM card switching message, the Modem switches the enabled card on the card slot to the physical SIM card, and sends a switching success message to the Qcril module. In response to the successful switching of the enabled card on the card slot to the physical SIM card, the Qcril module sends a physical SIM card power-on message to the Modem, and in response to the physical SIM card power-on message, the Modem powers on the physical SIM card. After the power-on is successful, a power-on success message is generated and sent to the Qcril module. In response to the successful power-on of the physical SIM card, the Qcril module determines that there is a physical SIM card in the card slot. Since the eSIM card is in the enabled state at the beginning of the detection, the eSIM card is powered off and the physical SIM card is powered on in order to execute the physical SIM card detection process. When it is detected that there is a physical SIM card in the card slot, the eSIM card needs to be enabled again. Specifically, the Qcril module sends a physical SIM card power-off message to the Modem. In response to the received physical SIM card power-off message, the Modem powers off the physical SIM card. After the power-off is successful, a physical SIM card power-off success message is generated, and the physical SIM card power-off success message is sent to the Qcril module. In response to the physical SIM card power-off success message, the Qcril module sends an eSIM card switching message to the Modem. In response to the received eSIM card switching message, the Modem switches the enabling card on the card slot to the eSIM card. After the switching is successful, the Modem generates an eSIM card switching success message and sends the eSIM card switching success message to the Qcril module. In response to the eSIM card switching success message, the Qcril module sends an eSIM card power-on message to the Modem. In response to the eSIM card power-on message, the Modem powers on the eSIM card. After the power-on is successful, the generated eSIM card power-on success message is sent to the Qcril module. In response to the received eSIM card power-on success message, the Qcril module determines that the eSIM card is in an enabled state, and the entire detection process ends here.

[0063] In another embodiment of the present application, when the eSIM card on the card slot is in an enabled state, when a physical card is detected on the card slot, since the eSIM card and the physical SIM card cannot be enabled on the same card slot, the electronic device will generate a prompt message. The prompt information is used to remind the user that the physical SIM card and the eSIM card cannot be used at the same time. Based on the prompt message, the user can choose to enable the physical SIM card or the eSIM card according to his or her own usage needs, so as to obtain the required services.

[0064] An exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a detection method for a SIM card. Figure 1 The electronic device shown in the figure performs the embodiment of the present application as an example. The electronic device is configured with at least one card slot. All or part of the at least one card slot supports physical SIM cards and eSIM cards. The method provided in the embodiment of the present application is for the card slot that can support physical SIM cards and eSIM cards. See Figure 4 , the method flow provided in the embodiment of the present application includes:

[0065] 401. When the embedded identity recognition module eSIM card in the card slot is in an enabled state, the electronic device detects a card insertion operation in the card slot.

[0066] The implementation method of this step is the same as that of the above step 301. Please refer to the above step 301 for details and will not be repeated here.

[0067] 402. When a card insertion operation is detected in the card slot, the electronic device obtains operation type information of the operation currently performed by the eSIM card.

[0068] The implementation method of this step is the same as that of the above step 302. Please refer to the above step 302 for details, which will not be repeated here.

[0069] 403. When the operation type information indicates that the eSIM card is not currently performing a profile operation, the electronic device powers off the eSIM card.

[0070] When the operation type information indicates that the eSIM card is not currently performing a profile operation, the Qcril module directly sends an eSIM card power-off message to the Modem. In response to the received eSIM card power-off message, the Modem powers off the eSIM card.

[0071] 404. In response to the eSIM card being powered off successfully, the electronic device performs a detection operation on the physical SIM card in the card slot.

[0072] After the eSIM card is powered off, the modem generates an eSIM card power-off message and sends the eSIM card power-off message to the Qcril module. When receiving the eSIM card power-off message, the Qcril module determines that the eSIM card is powered off successfully. In response to the eSIM card being powered off successfully, the electronic device performs a detection operation on the physical SIM card on the card slot. For the detection operation of the physical SIM card on the card slot, please refer to the above embodiment, which will not be repeated here.

[0073] See also Figure 5, a card slot (for example, SIM2 card slot) of an electronic device supports physical SIM cards and eSIM cards, wherein the eSIM card is in an enabled state on the card slot, and the eSIM card is performing a profile operation (for example, any operation such as downloading, activating, deactivating, deleting, etc.), and after the LPA detects that the eSIM card is performing a profile operation, it sets the configuration item prop to true. When the eSIM card is in an enabled state, the modem detects a card insertion operation on the card slot, the modem generates a card insertion message, and reports the card insertion message to the Qcril module, the Qcril module reads the prop item, at which time the prop item is true, the Qcril module determines that the eSIM card is performing a profile operation, keeps the eSIM card powered on, and does not perform a detection operation on the physical SIM card. After the LPA detects that the eSIM card has completed the profile operation, it sets the prop item to false. The Qcril module reads the prop item again, at which time the prop item is set to false, the Qcril module determines that the eSIM card is not performing a profile operation, and then triggers the detection process for the physical SIM card. Specifically, the Qcril module sends an eSIM card power-off message to the Modem. In response to the received eSIM card power-off message, the Modem performs the eSIM card power-off operation. When the eSIM card is successfully powered off, the Modem generates an eSIM card power-off success message and sends the eSIM card power-off success message to the Qcril module. In response to the received eSIM card power-off success message, the Qcril module sends a physical SIM card switching message to the Modem. In response to the physical SIM card switching message, the Modem switches the enabling card on the card slot to the physical SIM card. After the switch is successful, the Modem generates The Qcril module receives a switching success message and sends the switching success message to the Qcril module. In response to the switching success message, the Qcril module sends a physical SIM card power-on message to the Modem. In response to the received physical SIM card power-on message, the Modem powers on the physical SIM card. After the power-on is successful, the Modem generates a physical SIM card power-on success message and sends the physical SIM card power-on success message to the Qcril module. In response to the received physical SIM card power-on success message, the Qcril module can determine that there is a physical SIM card in the card slot, and then the Qcril module restores the eSIM card enabled state.Specifically, the Qcril module sends an eSIM card switching message to the Modem. In response to the eSIM card switching message, the Modem switches the enabled card on the card slot to the eSIM card. After the switching is successful, the Modem generates a switching success message and sends the switching success message to the Qcril module. In response to the switching success message, the Qcril module sends an eSIM card power-on message to the Modem. In response to the received eSIM card power-on message, the Modem powers on the eSIM card. By adopting the method provided in the embodiment of the present application, when the eSIM card is in an enabled state on any card slot and a card insertion operation is detected on the card slot, the eSIM card can be temporarily powered off to ensure that the profile operation being executed by the eSIM card can be executed normally.

In some embodiments, the audio module 170 can be arranged in the processor 110, or some functional modules of the audio module 170 can be arranged in the processor 110.

[0128] The speaker 170A, also called a "speaker", is used to convert an audio electrical signal into a sound signal. The electronic device 100 can listen to music or listen to a hands-free call through the speaker 170A.

[0129] The receiver 170B, also called a "earpiece", is used to convert audio electrical signals into sound signals. When the electronic device 100 receives a call or voice message, the voice can be received by placing the receiver 170B close to the human ear.

[0130] Microphone 170C, also called "microphone" or "microphone", is used to convert sound signals into electrical signals. When making a call or sending a voice message, the user can speak by putting their mouth close to microphone 170C to input the sound signal into microphone 170C. The electronic device 100 can be provided with at least one microphone 170C. In other embodiments, the electronic device 100 can be provided with two microphones 170C, which can not only collect sound signals but also realize noise reduction function.

[0131] The earphone interface 170D is used to connect a wired earphone and can be a USB interface 130 or a 3.5 mm open mobile terminal platform (OMTP) standard interface or a cellular telecommunications industry association of the USA (CTIA) standard interface.

[0132] The pressure sensor 180A is used to sense the pressure signal and can convert the pressure signal into an electrical signal. In some embodiments, the pressure sensor 180A can be set on the display screen 194. There are many types of pressure sensors 180A, such as resistive pressure sensors, inductive pressure sensors, capacitive pressure sensors, etc. The capacitive pressure sensor can be a parallel plate including at least two conductive materials. When a force acts on the pressure sensor 180A, the capacitance between the electrodes changes. The electronic device 100 determines the intensity of the pressure according to the change in capacitance. When a touch operation acts on the display screen 194, the electronic device 100 detects the touch operation intensity according to the pressure sensor 180A. The electronic device 100 can also calculate the touch position according to the detection signal of the pressure sensor 180A. In some embodiments, touch operations acting on the same touch position but with different touch operation intensities can correspond to different operation instructions. For example: when a touch operation with a touch operation intensity less than the first pressure threshold acts on the short message application icon, an instruction to view the short message is executed. When a touch operation with a touch operation intensity greater than or equal to the first pressure threshold acts on the short message application icon, an instruction to create a new short message is executed.
