I'm having a trouble when using pySIM to change the authentication algorithm in a USIM-SJS1 card. Basically I want disable the 3G authentication on the card, and only use 2G authentication regardless of the network type.
This is not a valid operation. The card is a combined SIM + UICC + USIM card. A USIM application by definition must support an UMTS authentication context. You can change the UMTS authentication algoritmh from MILENAGE to XOR, but even the specs for USIM don't allow any COMP128v1/v2/v3 algorithms. Please read the relevant specs.
So in fact what you need is a pure old 2G SIM card (like the magic SIM, sysmoSIM-GR1), not a SIM + USIM + UICC.
