Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide methods, systems and apparatus for controlling content presented on user-controlled wireless device assets and/or features, such as ringtone, wallpaper, wireless device memory.SOLUTION: A user-requested control state change is made from a user-controlled state to an advertisement-control state. In this regard, once a user has conceded control of the wireless device asset over to an advertiser or advertisement provider, the advertiser is allowed to provide advertisements to the designated wireless device asset for a predetermined period of time.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a server-less peer-to-peer data network system for content transfer between wireless devices.SOLUTION: The system includes: a first wireless device having a first address and content; and a second wireless device. The first wireless device transmits a message including the first address via a first service. The second wireless device receives the message from the first wireless device, establishes a communication path to the first address via a second service, and receives the content from the first wireless device. The method includes transmitting of a message from the first wireless device to the second wireless device via the first service, wherein the message includes the first address. The method further includes: establishing of a communication path to the first address via the second service by the second wireless device; and receiving of the content from the first wireless device after the message is received from the first wireless device.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods of differentiated data session access on a wireless communication device and dynamic source determination of provisioning information on a wireless communication device are disclosed. User Identity Modules (UIMs) are provisioned such that network-service applications resident on the wireless device are associated with a corresponding application profile within the UIM. Each networkservice application has a corresponding network address identifier defined within the user profile. The network address associated with the identifier is used to establish a data session for the corresponding network service application. By providing for application-specific network addresses, service providers and/or network operators can differentiate between what services a user is accessing during a data session. In addition, the UIMs may be provisioned with priority category identifiers that allow the associated network-service application to be prioritized for data session establishment.
Abstract:
Systems, apparatus and methods are described that provide for dynamic source determination of provisioning information on a per-network service basis for open market wireless devices. Specifically, systems, apparatus and me'thods provide for the open market wireless devices and/or the users of such devices to acquire provisioning information for network services in instances in which neither the removable module currently associated with the wireless device or the non-removable memory of the wireless device store the provisioning information for the desired network service. In this regard, present aspects provide for a prompt, such as a user notification to presented on an output mechanism of the wireless device when the wireless device determines first that the provisioning information is not stored on the removable module and, secondly, that the provisioning information is not stored on the non-removable data storage of the wireless device.
Abstract:
Methods, apparatus and systems are presented for automatically providing network operators with identification of open market wireless devices that are used in the operator s respective network. Present aspects accomplish such by retrieving device profile information in response to the network operator s removable module being associated with (i.e., inserted into) a wireless device and communicating the device profile information to the network operator or the like. This allows for the network operator or third party entity to track and/or monitor the type of wireless devices existing in their respective wireless network. In addition, the automated nature of the tracking obviates the need for the subscribers/users of the removable modules to manually or otherwise provide the device identification to the network operators.
