摘要：Methods and apparatus for providing manual selection of a communicationnetwork for a mobile station are described. A plurality of communication networks areidentified by scanning a coverage area within which the mobile station is operating. Aplurality of network identifiers corresponding to the plurality of communicationnetworks are then retrieved from memory of a Subscriber Identify Module (SIM) inaccordance with an Enhanced Operator Name String (EONS) protocol. Preferably, eachnetwork identifier is retrieved based on a Mobile Country Code (MCC), a Mobile NetworkCode (MNC), and a Location Area Code (LAC). The plurality of network identifiers arevisually displayed for user selection, and at least two of the network identifiers may besubstantially the same. The user selected communication network is registered with andthe network identifier associated with this network is visually displayed.
