A mobile communication terminal and a method for outputting a short message thereof are provided. The mobile communication terminal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a short message interpretation unit which extracts a phone number of a sender from a header of a short message, a short message processing unit which obtains an image mapped to the extracted phone number and generates a screen on which the image is combined with the text of the short message, a mapping unit which maps the image to the phone number of the sender, a storage unit which stores the phone number of the sender and the image and an output unit which outputs the screen.

Mobile communication terminal and method of the same for outputting short message

Disclosed is a location-based service method using location information of a mobile terminal in a mobile communication system. In a location-based service providing method, second mobile terminals within a predetermined range of a first mobile terminal are searched for, status information and relative location information of one or more second mobile terminals found is collected, and display data comprising the relative locations and status information of the one or more second mobile terminals found is sent to the first mobile terminal.

Method of providing location-based service using location information of mobile terminal

An apparatus and method for capturing and editing a moving image according to a theme of the moving image, the apparatus including: a theme selector to select the theme of the moving image to be captured; a scene selector to select, according to a user command, a scene clip from a plurality of scene clips of a story board of the moving image to be captured, the story board provided according to the theme selected by the theme selector; and a photographing unit to capture a portion of the moving image corresponding to the selected scene clip while a template corresponding to the selected scene clip is displayed on a display screen.

Apparatus and method for photographing and editing moving image

A three-dimensional motion graphic user interface includes a first polyhedron component which exists in a first space, and a second polyhedron component which exists in a second space, wherein the first polyhedron component includes identification information that identifies the second polyhedron component, and if an information object selected by a user is located inside the first polyhedron component, the information object is moved inside the second polyhedron component using the identification information.

Three-dimensional motion graphic user interface and method and apparatus for providing the same

Provided are an apparatus and method of displaying multimedia contents, more particularly, an apparatus and method of displaying stored multimedia contents to accommodate a user's preference using limited buttons of a remote control device or a cellular phone. The apparatus for displaying multimedia contents includes an alignment condition determination unit determining an alignment condition corresponding to a first user command signal among a plurality of alignment conditions, a detailed condition determination unit determining a detailed condition corresponding to a second user command signal among detailed conditions included in the alignment condition, a contents extraction unit extracting first multimedia contents according to the determined detailed condition, and a display unit displaying the determined alignment condition in a first region, the determined detailed condition in a second region, and a second multimedia contents selected by a user among the extracted first multimedia contents in a third region of a screen.

Apparatus and method for displaying multimedia contents to accommodate a user's preference using limited buttons of a device

A method of providing a slide show includes selecting one of a plurality of images in which geographic position information is set, marking a plurality of positions corresponding to the plurality of images on a map based on geographic position information and outputting the map, setting an image search range on the map based on a position on the map, which corresponds to the selected image, and providing the slide show by using images corresponding to positions on the map, which belong to the set image search range.

Method and apparatus for providing slide show by using plurality of images

A method and apparatus for displaying a content list are provided, which can display various content lists based on information on content being currently played through a user's simple manipulation. The method of displaying a content list includes receiving a user command, and displaying a content list belonging to a category set on the basis of information on content being currently played, in accordance with the received user command.

Method and apparatus for displaying content list

A three-dimensional motion graphic user interface (MGUI) and a method and apparatus for providing the same. The apparatus includes a control module which creates a polyhedron component that can be opened and that has at least one opening face and an internal space containing at least one information object related to information displayed on a face of the polyhedron component. A storing module stores the polyhedron component created by the control module, and an input module inputs data about a user's action with respect to the polyhedron component. A user interface module assigns predetermined attributes to at least one of a plurality of subordinate faces, maps information displayed on an information face according to the predetermined attributes, processes motion of the polyhedron component according to the input data, changes an information display according to the motion, and manages at least one group of a plurality of polyhedron components. An output module displays a processing result of the user interface module.

A method of allowing a portable device to provide a rich site summary (RSS) feed including information about renewal of contents, and an apparatus performing the method are provided. If contents of the portable device are renewed, the portable device generates an RSS feed for the renewed contents and sends the RSS feed to an RSS reader, and accordingly, a related art web-based RSS service is expanded to the portable device. Therefore, even if the user does not browse all contents of the portable device, a user of the portable device can easily see only information about contents that are recently updated using another device such as a personal computer (PC).

Method and apparatus for allowing a portable device to provide rich site summary service

A three-dimensional motion graphic user interface (MGUI) and a method and apparatus for providing the three-dimensional MGUI are provided. The three-dimensional motion graphic user interface includes a first polyhedron component that is formed of a plurality of faces, wherein at least one face of the plurality of faces that are subordinate to the first polyhedron component has predetermined attributes and displays information according to the attributes, and the first polyhedron component is separated into a plurality of second polyhedron components according to a user's action with respect to the faces.

A three-dimensional motion graphic user interface (MGUI) and a method and apparatus for providing the same. The MGUI includes a three-dimensional interface space which has an active space and an inactive space, and a polyhedron component which is three-dimensionally presented in the active space, wherein at least one of a plurality of faces that are subject to the polyhedron component has predetermined attributes, and information displayed on the faces is displayed differently according to the attributes and a presentation relationship between the active space and the polyhedron component.
