Abstract:
Methods, computer readable media, and electronic devices are provided that enable data files to be transferred from a source device to one or more destination devices to share the data files. The method includes initiating a transfer of at least one data file to a destination device after detecting initiation of a file sharing session, the at least one data file being associated with the source device; after transferring at least a portion of the at least one data file, sending a first command to the destination device or receiving a second command from the destination device, the first command or the second command indicating an interaction with the at least one data file; and executing the interaction.
Abstract:
Systems and methods can be implemented on a user device and eNBs to manage downlink interference at the user device. The user device in a cell associated with a corresponding serving base station may receive interference from one or more interfering base stations. The user device can identify a preferred radio resource set in response to the detected interference and transmit a preferred radio resource indication to at least the serving base station in response to the detected interference. The preferred radio resource indication can be used for identifying the preferred radio resource set associated with the serving base station.
Abstract:
Methods and devices to retrieve voice messages are disclosed. An example device includes a network interface to access a voicemail server via a network, a message parser to remove a non-message portion of a voicemail access session from a voicemail access session, and a storage device to store the message portion of the voicemail access session.
Abstract:
An example method includes detecting a hold touch and a release touch on a touch-sensitive display of an electronic device, wherein the hold touch and the release touch overlap at least partially in time, detecting release of the release touch, and in response to detecting the release of the release touch, displaying an editing control while the hold touch is detected. The editing control may include a virtual trackpad.
Abstract:
Systems and methods can be implemented on a wireless device and base stations to facilitate uplink synchronization. The wireless device can transmit a random access preamble to at least one base station serving the wireless device to initiate a random access procedure. The wireless device can identify a signal propagation time associated with the position of the wireless device and the position of the at least one base station serving the wireless device. The wireless device can also identify a positive time advance based on the identified signal propagation time for transmitting the random access preamble. Further, the wireless device can transmit the random access preamble to the at least one base station based on the identified time advance for random access.
Abstract:
Methods and systems at a user equipment, low power access node and first access node operating in a wireless network having a plurality of access nodes comprising a first access node and at least one low power access node having lower transmit power than the first access node, wherein the user equipment receives stronger downlink signals from the first access node than from the at least one low power access node, the method at the user equipment determining, by the user equipment, whether a low power access node is better for uplink data transmission than the first access node; and if the low power access node is better for uplink data transmission, sending from the user equipment to the low power access node, a random access preamble directed to the first access node.
Abstract:
A method, at a first network access device of a heterogeneous network, the method sending a report to a second network access device indicating a user equipment (UE) in the vicinity of the second network access device to be handled in the uplink by the second network access device; receiving an uplink timing control report from the second network access device; transmitting uplink timing control adjustments to the UE; allocating uplink resources for the second network access device to forward uplink information; allocating physical downlink control channel (‘PDCCH’) resources belonging to the first network access device for transmitting uplink scheduling information provided by the second network access device to the UE; receiving uplink information including uplink scheduling information from the second network access device at the first network access device; and sending the uplink scheduling information to the UE.
Abstract:
An electronic device capable of receiving and sending calls is configured with at least two modes. When a call is received by a device in a normal mode, the device displays information and presents selectable options for handling the received call. When the device is in a restricted or meeting mode, the device provides authorized callers with the option of prompting the called party to immediately answer the call or to record a message for later retrieval or take other appropriate action. Settings associated with the normal mode and settings associated with the meeting mode are adjustable.
Abstract:
An apparatus, and an associated method, facilitates user understanding of the audio component of media that is played back at a device having media player functionality. Responsive to detection of user selection, a portion of the audio component of the media is converted into textual, or other, form to provide a converted-form representation of the audio component portion. The representation is displayed to the user. The representation is further translatable into a second language, and the translated, representation is displayed to the user.
