Abstract:
Devices, systems, articles of manufacture, and methods for optimized wake-up are described. According to some embodiments, page messages are received at a page message receiving sub-slot. The page messages can be received by a communication device's communication interface, processes by a communication device's processor, and stored in a communication device's memory. Upon receiving page messages, a wake-up record is updated. A communication device can enter sleep mode based in part on reception of the page messages. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Access terminals are adapted to facilitate power regulation of a transmitter circuit by employing a transmitter power timer. An access terminal may identify expiration of a predetermined period of time without any data to be sent. The access terminal may subsequently power down the transmitter circuit in response to the expiration of the predetermined period of time. Methods for facilitating power regulation of a transmitter circuit include initiating a transmitter power timer after a data transmission, and powering off the transmitter circuit when the transmitter power timer expires without data to be transmitted. The transmitter power timer can be adapted to facilitate guarantee frames for smart blanking, and can operate independent of a dormancy timer. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also included.
Abstract:
A method for playing a local ringback tone is disclosed. A second party device is called from a calling party device. An alert message indicating that the calling party device is to play a network ringback tone is received. It is determined whether to play a pre-stored local ringback tone instead of the network ringback tone. The local ringback tone or the network ringback tone is played based on the determination. At any time before call connection or call release, the local ringback tone and the network ringback tone are switched between based on user input.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided that facilitate providing one or more profiles to an application executing on a device. The application can request one or more profiles, which can relate to an application type. The application type can be specified in the profile request, determined based on a profile indicated in the profile request, etc. Where the application type corresponds to an operator-specific application type, one or more operator identifiers in the profile request can be verified with one or more other operator identifiers in an identity module of the device. Where the operator identifiers match, the requested profile can be provided to the application. Where the operator identifiers do not match, an invalid profile, error code, etc. can be provided to the application. In this regard, operators can control utilization of specific profiles that can be defined by the operator.
