at least one storage device; and
at least one processing circuit, coupled to the at least one storage device, wherein the at least one storage device stores, and the at least one processing circuit is configured to execute instructions of:
communicating with the first BS according to a master cell group (MCG) configuration and communicating with the second BS according to a first secondary cell group (SCG) configuration when the communication device is in the DC with the first BS and the second BS, wherein the first SCG configuration comprises a first physical cell identity, a first temporary identifier, a first physical layer configuration and a first medium access control (MAC) configuration;
receiving a radio resource control (RRC) message from the first BS; and
releasing the first SCG configuration according to an indication indicating release of SCG and communicating with a third BS according to a second SCG configuration, when the RRC message comprises the second SCG configuration and the indication, wherein the second SCG configuration comprises a second physical cell identity, a second temporary identifier, a second physical layer configuration and a second MAC configuration.
2. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions further comprise:
keeping at least one configuration of a plurality of configurations in the first SCG configuration and communicating with the third BS according to the at least one configuration and the second SCG configuration, when the RRC message does not comprise the indication and comprises the second SCG configuration.
3. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the second SCG configuration comprises at least one first configuration, and does not comprise at least one second configuration in the first SCG configuration.
4. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the second SCG configuration configures a secondary node (SN) change from the second BS to the third BS.
5. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the second SCG configuration comprises at least one change for updating at least one configuration in the first SCG configuration, when the RRC message does not comprise the indication and comprises the second SCG configuration.
6. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the second SCG configuration further comprises a radio link control configuration.
7. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the second SCG configuration further comprises a radio bearer configuration.
8. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the second BS and the third BS are a same BS.
9. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the second BS and the third BS are different BSs.
10. A method of handling a dual connectivity (DC) with a first base station (BS) and a second BS for a communication device, comprising:
communicating with the first BS according to a master cell group (MCG) configuration and communicating with the second BS according to a first secondary cell group (SCG) configuration when the communication device is in the DC with the first BS and the second BS, wherein the first SCG configuration comprises a first physical cell identity, a first temporary identifier, a first physical layer configuration and a first medium access control (MAC) configuration;
receiving a radio resource control (RRC) message from the first BS; and
releasing the first SCG configuration according to an indication indicating release of SCG and communicating with a third BS according to a second SCG configuration, when the RRC message comprises the second SCG configuration and the indication, wherein the second SCG configuration comprises a second physical cell identity, a second temporary identifier, a second physical layer configuration and a second MAC configuration.
11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:
keeping at least one configuration of a plurality of configurations in the first SCG configuration and communicating with the third BS according to the at least one configuration and the second SCG configuration, when the RRC message does not comprise the indication and comprises the second SCG configuration.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the second SCG configuration comprises at least one first configuration, and does not comprise at least one second configuration in the first SCG configuration.
13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the second SCG configuration configures a secondary node (SN) change from the second BS to the third BS.
14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the second SCG configuration comprises at least one change for updating at least one configuration in the first SCG configuration, when the RRC message does not comprise the indication and comprises the second SCG configuration.
15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the second SCG configuration further comprises a radio link control configuration.
16. The method of claim 10 , wherein the second SCG configuration further comprises a radio bearer configuration.
