1. A mobile device configured for communication in both packet switched and circuit switched domains, comprising:
a domain selector configured, upon receipt of an incoming call via a first domain that is one of the packet switched and circuit switched domains, to determine, by the mobile device, a selection of a second domain in which to accept the incoming call, wherein the second domain is the other one of the packet switched and circuit switched domains other than the first domain, and wherein the domain selector is further configured to send the selection of the second domain to a technology selector; and the technology selector configured to transmit a message, by the mobile device, responsive to the incoming call in the first domain to a network element via a wireless communications network, wherein the network element is capable of interpreting the message, the interpreting comprising determining that the incoming call will be established in the second domain and setting up, by the mobile device, the incoming call via the second domain.
