Abstract

The invention relates to a mobile communication apparatus and a method for receiving messages upon the arrival of a message flagged as 'urgent', for automatically sounding an alert ringtone discernible from those assigned for other purposes, including those that various people may send and ring in the receiving mobile communication apparatus of the addressee. When changes occur in the ringtones due to the displacement of the mobile communication apparatus from one service area to another, by added new ringtones, the verification of the adequacy, if necessary, the updating of the alert ringtone is facilitated by a priori knowledge of the telecommunications networks with which the mobile communication apparatus is authorized to affiliate, obtainable from the data of the user identification modules (SIM, USIM, R-UIM, or the like), while ensuring a high probability to be heard, the alert ringtone may emit a few short rings and minimizing the disturbance by activation.
