A mobile terminal, which is registered to either a first mobile communication network or a second communication network, determines whether it is possible to register to the first mobile communication network on the basis of control information received from the second mobile communication network. Then, the mobile terminal attempts to register to the first mobile communication network a predetermined number of times in a case that it is determined that it is possible to register to the first mobile communication network.

System for changing location registration

In the mobile telephonerelating to the present invention, a control sectionperforms control for switching between a non-active state which refuses inputs to an application program, and a rest state in which the application program is temporarily halted. The control sectionperforms control for switching the execution state of the application program from the non-active state to the rest state, in accordance with instructions from an input section. The control sectionfurther performs control for switching the execution state of the application program from the non-active state to the rest state, in accordance with a function contained in an application program.

Mobile communication terminal, method for controlling execution state of application program, application program, and recording medium wherein application program has been recorded

A mobile telephonehaving a function for downloading and executing an application A from a network server comprises a communications module execution control system. The judging sectionacquires and refers to an attribute information file. If the attribute information filecontains a (UseTelephone=call) definition, then the judging sectionjudges that the call sectionis to be executed by the application A, and if there is no UseTelephone key, then it judges that the call sectionis not be executed by the application A. If the UseTelephone value is not 'call', then the judging sectionjudges that the download of the application A is not allowed. The control sectioncontrols the download and execution of the application A, in accordance with the judgement from the judging section

Communications module execution control system, communications module execution control method, application execution control system, and application execution control method

An object of the present invention is to enable smooth performance testing of an application software on a mobile communication terminal and to make execution state information about the application software available solely to authorized persons. The cellular phoneaccording to the present invention comprises a display, wireless unit, and control unit. As used herein, the displayis a display apparatus for displaying information. From a delivery server, the wireless unitreceives application software together with attribute information that indicates whether execution state information stored in a specific storage area by the application software should be displayed. The control unitperforms a control routine such that the execution state information is displayed by the displaywhen the attribute information indicates that the execution state information should be displayed, and the execution state information is not displayed by the displaywhen the attribute information indicates that the execution state information should not be displayed.

In the mobile telephonerelating to the present invention, a control sectionperforms control for switching between a non-active state which refuses inputs to an application program, and an active state which permits inputs to an application program. Moreover, the control sectionperforms control for switching the execution state of the application program from the non-active state to the active state, in accordance with instructions from an input section. The control sectionfurther performs control for switching the execution state of the application program from the non-active state to the active state, in accordance with a function contained in an application program.

Mobile communications terminal, application program execution state control method, and execution state control computer program product

The mobile telephonepertaining to the present invention comprises a memory unit, a short-range wireless unit, and a control unit. The memory unitassociates and stores an application ID, keyword, and application software. The short-range wireless unitreceives an application ID and keyword transmitted from outside. The control unitretrieves from the application storage areaand starts application software that corresponds to the received application ID when there is a match between the keyword received by the short-range wireless unitand the keyword stored in the ADF storage area

In order to perform control to optimize a display area during the execution of application software, the cellular phoneaccording to the present invention communicates with an application software distribution apparatus for distributing application software and is characterized by comprising a display unitthat includes a display screenand serves to display information on the display screen; a wireless unitfor receiving, from the application software distribution apparatus, application software, and attribute data that indicates an assumed display area that is to be used as a display area during execution of the application software; and a control unitfor controlling the display area of the application software in the display screenof the displayon the basis of the attribute data received by the wireless unitand displayable area data that indicates the displayable area of the display screen

Mobile communication terminal and display control method

Time elapsed from the time when the sensor cover is opened and power supply to the fingerprint sensor is turned from off to on is counted and when there is no fingerprint image read-in command within a specified period of time power supply to the fingerprint sensor is turned off. Even if power supply to the fingerprint sensor is turned off, when a fingerprint image read-in command executes power supply to the fingerprint sensor is turned on and read-in of a fingerprint image commences. If a fingerprint image read-in command executes when the sensor cover is closed, that command is invalidated. In such a configuration, the opening and closing of a sensor cover works in synchronicity with on/off control of power supply for a fingerprint sensor and even when the sensor cover is open, wasteful electricity consumption through power supply continuing if the fingerprint sensor is not used within a specified period of time is prevented.
