Should make examinations interesting. Apparently, an open-ended SIM that can be either postpaid or prepaid account without the need to change SIMs but still switch between carriers. Either Apple intend to go for their own IMSI (thus become an operator) or the IMSI will need to be updated OTA...hmmmm
"If you are among the millions who will purchase one of the 4G versions of the new iPad Air 2 or iPad mini 3 tablets from Apple in the next few months, and you live in the US or UK, then when you switch the tablet on for the first time, you will find a nano-SIM card already installed in the SIM card slot."
..............
"What Apple envisions with its SIM is that users will be able to quickly and easily switch between different carriers to take advantage of the best short-term deals available at any given time - without having to go through the hassle of getting a new SIM card.
"Obviously, if you have signed up to a two-year contract you won't be switching deals that often, but if you are on a pay-as-you-go deal, then this could be a real money-saver......."

QUESTION 2
An officer approaches you as the expert to investigate comminucations on an iPhone. There is known comms that have taken place but the twist is the comms at the distance end are being received by a Satellite phone. The user of the SatPhone is known to be trafficking in young children snatched from parents whilst on holiday. Your job is to provide evidence to help the police officer regarding which elementary files in the USIM would be used to permit mobile network usage (home and roaming) and any network artefacts that maybe connected to Satellite comms? To help you, a link below leads you to a piece of equipment that links iPhone to satellite:

The bitmap file can be loaded into Windows Paintbrush then printed. They
are drawn 1:1 at 300 dpi so make sure you click "Use printer resolution" and
the Laser printer is set to 300 dpi before you print. The artwork is drawn as

SIM/USIM Research Materials
Research Materials
I shall be posting material (example below) I have gathered from my research over the last 20 years that students, examiners and experts may find of use. Some of the materials to be posted I couldn't find when I searched the Internet recently. Whether that is down to me not searching enough or information held in web-based wall-gardens or the information is no longer available, it would be a pity to let that research fade into obscurity. Where I can identify authors of materials posted I shall do so. But if I cannot do that then by posting I am not declaring someone elses work or their material are my creation. I am just sharing what is and in some case what was freely distributed over the years.
Trial and Error
When considering historical material it can provide a useful background insight, whilst at the same time nuture the interest to experiment and offers a knowledge base that may be needed or useful to know when approaching trial and error tests/experimentation.
Past Solutions Future Answers
One last point. A re-occuring theme, when considering digital evidence or forensic methodology or, even, how to apply examination techniques, is that solutions to problems, conundrums or perceived diametrically opposing facts can often be found by studying early developments in particular technologies. The approach that the manufacturer applied to the technology or how research and application found another way through may provide the solution for students, examiners and experts.
TEST SIM Script
(NOTE: The only details I have for the Author "brka". The email and website are no longer active. It is possible that the test materials are compiled from different sources and brought together in one source file. Some of the materials seemed to be have recognisable or at least similar designs to that created by the known programmer/developer "Dejan").
Once when you make TEST SIM using test_sim.hex you can:
Entering into TEST mode
***********************
Insert TEST SIM in your phone.
Power ON phone.
When phone ask for PIN, type 5555
Then, the phone displays "CHECK CARD",
and then Power-Off the phone and Power-Up
The phone will enter into the TEST mode ....
(it can Register on ANY network ... but no Phone calls
can be done)
Entering into CLONE mode (SP Unlocking)
***************************************
Insert TEST SIM in your phone.
Power ON phone.
When phone ask for PIN, type 1111
Phone will display "CHECK CARD"
Wait for few seconds and turn OFF phone!!!
Now turn phone ON and phone will be in CLONE Mode!
Clone Mode works on all Motorola phones!
SP Unlocking
************
Once you are in Clone Mode, type 03# and phone will be unlocked.
NOTE! SP unlocking work on all Motorola phones made before Sep.98!!!
It even works on some of CD920 and CD930 ....
Try it and please write me the results ....
(I found that the phones that IMEI ends with 0 can be unlocked !)
TEST SIM can be made with PIC 16F84 (16C84) wafer card.
