Personalization of a mobile device, including receiving at the mobile device a unique code; selecting, from a plurality of personalization policies stored on the mobile device a personalization policy that corresponds to the unique code; and storing the selected personalization policy in a persistent protected storage element of the mobile device. Customizing a mobile device, including determining at the mobile device a unique code; selecting, from a plurality of customized data sets stored on the mobile device a data set that corresponds to the unique code; and activating the selected data set on the mobile device.

Mobile equipment customization using a single manufacturing configuration

A method, system and apparatus for controlling access to a media server are provided. A browse request is received at a computing device, from a remote computing device to browse a memory structure including content files. Authentication of the remote computing device is initiated. Prior to the remote computing device being authenticated, a response is transmitted to the remote computing device indicative that the memory structure is empty of the content files, regardless of actual content of the memory structure. After the remote computing device is authenticated, a further response is transmitted to the remote computing device indicative of the actual content of the memory structure.

Access control at a media server

Within a communication device having a plurality of displays, a method of controlling the displays can include, responsive to receiving an event from an application within a display manager, determining whether a single event or multiple events are pending (). If a single event is pending, the method can include instructing the application to write data corresponding to the received event to a primary display of the communication device (). The display manager can write data corresponding to the received event to a secondary display (). If multiple events are pending, the method can include preventing the application from writing data to the primary display (). The display manager can write data corresponding to the multiple events to the primary display and the secondary display without involvement of the application (). The display manager further can launch a specific application in response to an event ().

Display management for communication devices with multiple displays

A portable communication device () having a customizable skin and theme on a display () of the communication device can include a transceiver (and), a display coupled to the transceiver, a memory (or) having stored therein at least two skin and theme types () and at least one encapsulated data entry associated with each of the skin and theme types, and a processor () coupled to the transceiver and the display. The processor can be programmed to dynamically update the display in the communication device based upon a selection of at least one among the skin and theme types and based upon at least one encapsulated data entry associated with a selected skin and theme type.

Method and apparatus for modifying skin and theme screens on a communication product

A device () that can perform voice recognition operates with a removable media or memory () that is used to store information records (). To save memory space in the removable media, voice recognition tags (), used to perform voice recognition, are not stored in the removable media, but are stored in the device. Since the media is removable, the device must check to make sure the records stored in the media are usable with the voice recognition tags. This is accomplished by generating a key () whenever a new voice recognition tag is trained (). The key is stored in the device, or in the media, or both. Upon initialization of the device, (), the device searches () the media for records and checks () to see if the key corresponding to the record matches any keys in the device. When a match is found the record is associated () with the corresponding voice recognition tag. Voice recognition tags with no corresponding records are deleted or ignored. When a record with no corresponding voice recognition tag is found, the device may prompt the user to train a new voice recognition tag () for the record.

Method of associating voice recognition tags in an electronic device with records in a removable media for use with the electronic device

A mobile communication device containing voice recognition capability is first enabled to perform voice recognition (102). The user then speaks the name of the party the user wishes to call (104), the name corresponding to a record the user has programmed into a memory of the mobile communication device. The mobile communication device then uses the output (106) of the voice recognition process to search the memory for a corresponding record (108). The record contains at least two calling numbers, each associated with a different mode of communication, such as dispatch and telephone communication. For a brief period of time after locating the record, the mobile communication device waits (118) for the user to initiate a call in the first communication mode (120) by, for example, pressing a dispatch call button (124). If, after a preselected duration of time has passed and no input is received from the user, the mobile communication device defaults to a second communication mode and makes a call (122).
