A method () and mobile computing device () are described. In its simplest form, the method includes the steps of: operating () an application in synchronous communication with an application server via a persistent IP session, defining an active mode, wherein the synchronous communication is automatically enabled by establishing a persistent IP session according to a prearranged schedule; and providing () a dormant mode wherein the synchronous communication is automatically disabled in the mobile device by closing the persistent IP session according to the prearranged schedule. Advantageously, energy can be saved in the mobile computing device, thereby extending the life of an energy storage device or a battery. By the use of intelligent pushing management, substantial energy savings can be gained, by using prearranged scheduling of dormant and active modes.

An apparatus and method of controlling connection status using a flash with information message. A connection can be established between a communication device and a first party. An operation can trigger an event. A flash with information message can be transmitted on a link signaling channel in response to the event. The flash with information message can include a connection control information record that controls a connection status of the connected first party.
