A mobile device provided with a secure chip and a short-range wireless RF communication module, which can be used for contactless transactions with external short-range wireless RF communication devices, for example at a point of sales. The mobile device is provided with user selectable activity levels of the secure chip to reduce security risks/concerns associated with such a terminal. The user selectable activity levels may include levels in which the secure chip is deactivated by default, and only temporarily activated upon user confirmation or the entry of a password or PIN.

Mobile device with near field communication module and secure chip

A wireless communication device is implemented with a smart card module to secure the transmission of sensitive or confidential information. The user of the device must request permission to activate an application on the smart card module from a remote source. After this first level of security is satisfied, the application on the smart card module enables the user to scan data via a machine-readable medium in order to make a data request to the remote source. If a second level authorization is met in regard to the data request, the remote source will transmit the requested sensitive or confidential information to the user to view and/or update.

Phone with secure element and critical data

A method and an arrangement are provided for indicating the specific use of a packet-switched communication connection between a mobile station and a fixed packet-switched data transmission network. The activation of a new packet-switched communication connection involves the step of transmitting an activation request message with a service type indicator field for which a set of service type indicator values have been defined. An additional step is performed for transmitting within the activation request message an indicator value indicating the specific use, in more detail than the service type indicator values, of the packet-switched communication connection the activation of which is requested with the activation request message.

Method and arrangement for indicating service specificity for PDP Contexts

The invention relates to a method for the transmission of multimedia messages in a communication system from a transmitting terminal (MS) to a receiving terminal (RH, MS). The communication system comprises at least a first communication network (NW), a second communication network (NW) and a multimedia message switching centre (MMSC). In the first communication network (NW), at least a first address type is used as the terminal address, and in the second communication network (NW), at least a second address type is used as the terminal address. In the method, the address of the receiving terminal (RH, MS) is annexed to said multimedia message. The multimedia message is further supplemented with data on the type of said address, wherein the multimedia message is transmitted from the transmitting terminal (MS) to said multimedia message switching centre (MMSC), in which the type of the address of the receiving terminal (RH, MS) is examined, and said address type is used to select the communication network (NW, NW) to be used in the transmission of the message from the multimedia message switching centre (MMSC) to the receiving terminal (RH, MS).

Method for the transmission of multimedia messages

A method is provided for transmitting multimedia-related information between a first device and a second device coupled to a packet-switched data transmission network, A first protocol stack ( ) is defined for the first device and a second protocol stack ( ) is defined for the second device. The protocol stacks consist of layers and serve the arranging of the mutual exchange of information between the first device and the second device. An Internet Protocol layer ( ) is defined for the transmission of packetized data as a certain layer in the first protocol stack and a certain layer in the second protocol stack. A multimedia messaging transport protocol layer ( ) is also defined as a certain layer above the Internet Protocol layer ( ) in the first and second protocol stacks. Multimedia-related information is exchanged between the multimedia messaging transport protocol layer ( ) in die first device and the multimedia messaging transport protocol layer ( ) in the second device through the use of the Internet Protocol layer ( ) as well as other lower layers in the first and second protocol stacks.

Method and arrangement for transmitting multimedia-related information in a packet-switched cellular radio network with external connection

The present invention proposes a method for delivering messages in a communication network consisting of at least one terminal and a messaging functionality, said method comprising the steps of receiving a message (MM) for said terminal (MS) by said messaging functionality (MMSC); sending a notification (MMSNotify) about the presence of said message (MM) from said messaging functionality (MMSC) to said terminal (MS); deciding by said terminal (MS) due to its capabilities (CAP) and current user profile (UP) how to handle said received message (MM); replying by said terminal (MS) to the notification sent by said messaging functionality (MMSC), therewith instructing according to the result of said decision step; and handling said message (MM) by said messaging functionality (MMSC) according to said instructions.

Method for delivering messages
