It's triggered by AT+CGATT=1 (or AT+CFUN=1 if we have auto attach enabled).

For the EPS context (non initial) yes.

For the initial EPS context we don't use AT+CGACT and CGDCONT.

>From 24.301: 

In order to request connectivity to a PDN using the default APN, the UE 
includes the Access point name IE in the PDN CONNECTIVITY REQUEST message or, 
when applicable, in the ESM INFORMATION RESPONSE message, according to the 
following conditions:
-    if use of a PDN using the default APN requires PAP/CHAP, then the UE 
should include the Access point name IE; and
-    in all other conditions, the UE need not include the Access point name IE.
----

For the initial EPS context the UE may have to provide the APN in some cases. 
From 27007 we don't have an at command such as AT+CGCONT to specify the 
parameter that'll be used for the initial EPS context (like APN).

Regarding the patch, In 3G when you get the following unsolicited  "ME PDN ACT 
X" (where X is the CID, see +CGEREP) it's because you activated a context 
(AT+CGACT).
In this case you already specified the CID with AT+CDCONT before AT+CGACT.

In LTE you can get this event in two cases; after the attach procedure 
(AT+CGATT) and in this case you don't know the CID before, or after AT+CGDCONT 
and AT+CGACT as in 3G.

The idea was to propose a function to handle the first case with the initial 
EPS context.

Redouane.
