There is disclosed a method and system to provide a wireless terminal online access capability to a system phonebook, such as a WLAN, which calls for instructing the system to start a phonebook application such that for incoming calls the phonebook application commences in response to a phone number identification at the user terminal side and for outgoing calls the phonebook application commences through a User Interface (UI) of the user terminal; and performing a search query of the phonebook database to identify a caller corresponding to a phone number identification of an incoming call and/or at least one of a phone number and person or party of the call to be initiated.

Method and system for making accessible wirelessly a network phonebook and journal database

A method and system for making profile information of a plurality of users of wireless terminals in a network accessible to the network. A current operational mode of the wireless terminal is determined. The current operational mode is identified by an operational mode name. The wireless terminal identification is used to identify the wireless terminal and/or a user of the wireless terminal. Profile information of the wireless terminal is sent to the network where the profile information includes the operational mode name and the wireless terminal and/or user identification. The profile information is sent by the wireless terminal and the sent profile information is accessible from the network.

Calendar display apparatus, and an associated method, displays the calendar display at a mobile terminal operable in a radio communication system. The calendar display includes calendar items retrieved from both a local storage element and from a network-based calendar database. The calendar items are displayed simultaneously. And, calendar items stored locally are exportable to the network database. Analogously, calendar items stored at the network database are downloadable to the mobile station to be stored thereat.

A telephone system includes a plurality of telephone terminals wherein a call that is placed from a calling telephone terminal to a receiving telephone terminal is announced by activating a standard ringing indication at the receiving telephone terminal. A data file is provided having a plurality of different ringing indications therein. These ringing indications include a plurality of sound information that are both different from each other and different from a standard ringing tone, and a plurality of different visual information. When a call is placed from a calling telephone terminal to a receiving telephone terminal, the user at the calling telephone terminal may optionally elect to announce the call at the receiving-telephone-terminal using ringing indication that is selected from the data-file, for example sound information that indicates the identity of the calling-users, and/or visual information that indicates the priority of the call.

Method and apparatus enabling a calling telephone handset to choose a ringing indication(s) to be played and/or shown at a receiving telephone handset

A communication device ( ) comprising a first part ( ); a second part ( ); coupling means ( ) for coupling the first ( ) and the second part ( ) and allowing a mutual movement about a hinged joint (AA); and a connection point ( ) for an insertable plug. Said point of connection ( ) is arranged to said coupling means ( ) and it substantially coincides with the hinged joint (AA) of the device ( ). Consequently, the external connection will not interfere with the pivoting movement nor will it complicate handling and holding of the device.

Methods and devices for modifying operational modes in a communication device based on application specific parameters. The operational modes of the communication device are modified by adding the application specific parameters of the application to the operational modes of the communication device. Further, commands may be automatically launched after an operational mode change in a communication device. One or more commands to be automatically launched when an operational mode becomes a current operational mode currently used by the communication device are entered into the operational mode of a communication device of a user. Whether the current operational mode has any commands to be automatically launched is determined. The one or more commands are automatically launched if the current operational mode has any commands to be automatically launched.

An electronic device comprising a housing a display for entering and displaying data, the display being disposed in the housing and having a touch sensitive surface and a cover and The cover is coupled to the housing in a movable manner and movable between an open position and a closed position. When the cover is in the closed position, at least a portion of the touch sensitive surface is covered by the cover. The device includes a sensor for sensing whether the cover is in the closed position. The sensor comprises a member and on the cover and a corresponding activation area and of the touch sensitive surface. The member and the corresponding activation area of the touch sensitive surface are in contact when the cover is in the closed position.

The invention relates to a method for installing at least one service ( ) of at least one external device (MS , MS , MS ) to a data processor (PC, LPC, PR). Said at least one service ( ) can be used for controlling the functions of said external device (MS , MS , MS ) from the data processor (PC, LPC, PR). In the method, a local area link is established for transferring information between said data processor (PC, LPC, PR) and said at least one external device (MS , MS , MS ). From said at least one external device (MS , MS , MS ), it is determined which are the services ( ) available in it. In the data processor (PC, LPC, PR), at least one service packet. ( ) is installed, which contains at least one of said services ( ) available in the wireless communication device (MS , MS , MS ).

Radio transceiver with two frequency bands

Wireless communication device

The present invention relates to an arrangement for transmitting a radio-frequency signal at two different frequency bands and for receiving at two different frequency bands. The arrangement can be applied for instance to a transceiver of a radio communications system operating at two different frequency bands, or to a transceiver meant to be used in connection with two different radio communications systems. One of the ideas of the invention is that one and the same filter (72), belonging to the RF front end of the antenna circuit, is used for filtering interference from at least two signals located at different frequency bands, in which case the number of filters (72, 75) can be reduced. By means of the solution suggested in the invention, also the number of controllable switches (73) provided on the signal path of the RF front end can be minimized.

Arrangement for transmitting and receiving radio frequency signal at two

The invention relates to a method for generating frequencies in a direct conversion transceiver of a radio communication system operating in two different frequency bands. In this method a first frequency band comprises a first transmission frequency band and a first reception frequency band, and a second frequency band comprises a second transmission frequency band and a second reception frequency band. The frequencies are Generated by using one frequency synthesizer (12) and a reference oscillator (14), which generates an essentially constant mixing frequency (L04).
