Abstract
Improved techniques for configuring user interfaces (e.g., man-machine interfaces) for wireless devices are disclosed. The configuring of user interfaces is able to be controlled by a network operator such that replacement, alteration or customization of the user interfaces by network operators is possible. Besides the ability to partially or completely change the user interface, such configuring or customization enables network operators to provide options, logos, advertising, etc. in a controllable way.
