Abstract:
IP telephony communications are conducted by sending both data produced by a CODEC that represents received spoken audio input, and a textual representation of the spoken audio input. A receiving device utilizes the textual representation of the spoken audio input to help recreate the spoken audio input when a portion of the CODEC data is missing. The textual representation can be generated by a speech-to-text function. Alternatively, the textual representation can be a notation of extracted phonemes.
Abstract:
A method for call handling comprising receiving, from a first device, an incoming call request directed to a second device, wherein the call request contains call handling information and transmitting an outgoing call request to the second device, wherein the outgoing call request is based at least in part upon the call handling information.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for verifying an end-user device during provisioning using caller ID (CID) are provided herein. In some embodiments, a method for verifying an end-user device during provisioning using CID may include receiving a first CID from the end-user device, associating a validation key with the first CID, sending a first signaling message to the end-user device including the validation key, receiving a second signaling message from the end-user device that includes a second CID, and performing a verification analysis of the end-user device using the second CID and the validation key.
Abstract:
A method for generating customized menus for accessing application functionality of a mobile device comprising detecting a gesture performed on a display of the mobile device and displaying a quick menu on the display containing preview information pertaining to one or more applications based on the detected gesture.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for aggregating conversation history comprising collecting one or more communications from one or more communication channels, associating related communications from the one or more communications with each other using a matching algorithm into one or more conversations and presenting an aggregation of the one or more conversations to a user as a conversation history.
Abstract:
A method and system for simultaneous display of a multimedia background is disclosed. In some embodiments the system and method includes conducting a video call from a first caller on a first terminal to a second caller on a second terminal and substituting a multimedia content for at least a portion of an original background of the first terminal to create a combined multimedia background. The combined multimedia background is transmitted to the second terminal. Moreover, the combined multimedia background includes an image superimposed over the multimedia content. The combined multimedia background is enabled to be interactively controlled by a movement detection device.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for identifying and displaying a set of high priority contacts on a display device associated with an end user device. In some embodiments, the method includes retrieving high priority contact list configuration settings that include one or more criteria for identifying a set of high priority contacts from a contact list having a plurality of contacts, determining whether information associated with one or more of the plurality of contacts meets the one or more criteria retrieved, identifying the one or more of the plurality of contacts that meet the one or more criteria as a set of one or more high priority contacts, and displaying the set of one or more high priority contacts in a high priority contact list on the display device.
