The present disclosure is a method for providing a plurality of screens in an idle state of a mobile terminal, comprising; allocating at least one application program to each of the screens, based on a user selection; displaying a first screen among the plurality of screens in the idle state; receiving a screen switch request from a user; and turning the screens one by one based on the screen switch request so as to display the at least one application program allocated to each of the screens.

Method and apparatus for providing a plurality of screens in idle state of mobile terminal

A method and an apparatus for providing a spin-home function for a mobile communication terminal having a key input module, a microprocessor, a program memory, a data storage module, and an LCD display module so that applications are circulated and displayed on an idle screen. The method includes steps of (a) designating at least one application as a spin-home; (b) running a spin-home program stored in the program memory; (c) circulating next application designated as the spin-home and displaying the application on the LCD display module every time the user operates a second key button for circulating the idle screen; and (d) setting an application currently displayed on the LCD display module as the idle screen when the user operates a confirmation key button.

Method and apparatus for providing spin-home function for mobile communication terminal

The present application discloses a method of storing status of an application. According to some embodiments, whether a user of a mobile communication terminal made a selection to store the status of an application in a shortcut is determined. In response to the selection to store the status of the application in the shortcut, a single string value is generated and stored in the shortcut, where the single string value includes an application parameter and application status information of the application at the time of the storage of the single string value. If the single string value is selected by operating the shortcut, the status, at the time of the storage of the single string value, of the application is reinstated, and execution of the application is resumed according to the application parameter and the application status information of the application.

Method and system for status of application storing by using mobile communication terminal

Disclosed is a method and a system for customizing a user interface by editing multimedia content, in which, when a user customizes the user interface displayed on a mobile communication terminal according to the preference of the user, the user edits the multimedia content to be used for the user interface, and uses the edited multimedia content for the user interface.

Method and system for customizing user interface by editing multimedia content

The invention relates to an apparatus for providing a user interface for a game performed on a mobile communication terminal. The invented apparatus supports a network game using a mobile communication terminal by providing network game functions through voice communications, various operational and manipulation functions, realistic video/sound presentation and a support for a mass capacity game. The invented apparatus enables on-line network game through mobile data communication network as well as voice communications and it provides various and improved user interface for a game using mobile communication terminals.

Disclosed is a method and system for providing an integration theme pack service in which, if a user receives an integration theme pack content from a content-providing server through a mobile communication terminal, the mobile communication terminal changes a background screen image into the integration theme pack content, employs the integration theme pack content as a background picture, and generates and displays a user interface having a menu configuration image formed on the integration theme pack content in a dual transparent structure.

Method and system for providing integration theme pack service

Disclosed is a method for providing by a news information-providing server news information using a 3D character to a wireless communication terminal having accessed the news information-providing server through a wireless communication network, the method including the steps of: (a) generating voice information by converting news information received in real-time into voice data, and analyzing content of the voice information; (b) extracting mouth shape data and facial expression data corresponding to the content of the voice information analyzed at step (a); (c) applying the mouth shape data and facial expression data to the 3D character, and generating 3D character data by synthesizing the 3D character with an background image and/or background music; (d) generating 3D character news by synchronizing the voice information with the 3D character data; and (e) transmitting the 3D character news to the wireless communication terminal in a streaming mode.

Method and system for providing news information by using three dimensional character for use in wireless communication network

Disclosed is a method for implementing a vector animation interactive service on a mobile communication terminal browser. The method includes the steps of: a) requesting a supply of a WAP page through a wireless Internet; b) downloading a WML script constituting the WAP page; c) transferring the WML script to an embedded plug-in, and processing a portion, which includes information for an image and a dynamic image or execution information for a game in the WML script, at a variable value for conversion in the embedded plug-in; d) transferring the information processed at the variable value to a vector graphic engine; and e) displaying or executing the image, the dynamic image or the game through the vector graphic engine. According to the method, it is possible to provide users with various multimedia services such as interactive menus, games, advertisements and content reproduction even in a state where a browser is not closed, so that browser capacity can be minimized and a resource such as a memory of the mobile communication terminal can be saved. Consequently, it is possible to promote interest of the user for use of a wireless Internet.
