Filed:

Sep 27, 2011
Appl. No.:

13/246813
Inventors:

Dallas B. De Atley - San Francisco CA, US
Jerrold V. Hauck - Windermere FL, US
Muralidhar S. Vempaty - San Jose CA, US
Onur E. Tackin - Sunnyvale CA, US
Assignee:

APPLE INC - Cupertino CA
International Classification:

H04W 12/00
US Classification:

455410
Abstract:

To securely factory activate a mobile device according to authorized records, factory activation server generates and sends a signed factory activation record including a signed factory activation ticket. Signed factory activation record and ticket are cryptographically signed using factory private key stored in factory activation server. Factory private key is different from customer private key stored in the activation server that provides activation tickets for customer activation. If factory activation record is valid, application processor (AP) included in the device performs factory activation of the device which includes AP activating to allow for factory testing and rebooting at a predetermined reboot time. Wireless communication processor (BB) included in the device verifies the factory activation ticket and if valid, BB performs factory activation including: BB registering to a cellular telephone communications network for factory testing, and unregistering from the network after a predetermined unregistering time. Other embodiments are also described.

International Classification:

H04M 3/00
US Classification:

455419
Abstract:

Methods, systems, and computer-readable medium for providing telecommunications carrier configuration at activation of a mobile device. In one implementation, a method is provided. The method includes receiving a request for activation of a mobile device, and during activation of the mobile device, determining for the mobile device a telecommunications carrier from a number of telecommunications carriers, and identifying information associated with the determined telecommunications carrier for configuring the mobile device.

International Classification:

H04L 9/32
G06F 16/901
G06T 7/80
Abstract:

Systems and methods for storing and recovering data for a device are described. In one embodiment, factory generated calibration data can be generated, sealed and restored securely even if two sensors in two different devices, such as a first ambient light sensor and a second ambient light sensor have the same sensor identifier. In one embodiment, a device transmits a database key to cause storage or recovery of the calibration data, and the database key includes a sensor identifier and a public cryptographic key of the device.

International Classification:

G06F 21/62
H04L 9/32
G06F 21/60
H04L 29/06
Abstract:

In various embodiments, methods, devices and systems for securely generating, sealing, and restoring factory-generated calibration and provisioning data for an electronic device are described, in which calibration and provisioning data for an electronic device are generated in a distributed manner and stored on a storage system. The calibration data can be retrieved from the storage system during device assembly and finalized calibration and provisioning data for each electronic device can be stored to the storage system. In one embodiment, a sealing server, to attest to the authenticity of the factory generated data, seals the finalized calibration data. In one embodiment, an electronic device can access a data store containing the factory-generated data and can update or restore calibration or provisioning data for the device from the data store.
