摘要:
Improved systems and methods for establishing peer-to-peer calls such as voice over IP calls and video over IP calls. In various embodiments of the invention, SMTP messages are exchanged between devices using a SMTP server, with the SMTP messages including IP address information. With this arrangement, the need for SIP service providers can be eliminated. In other embodiments of the present invention, SMS messages including IP address information are transmitted between devices during a GSM or other type of telephone call, enabling the call to “migrate” to a VoIP or video over IP call.

An approach is provided for receiving, in association with first content to be rendered on user equipment, a vector of one or more values for a corresponding one or more sliding scales. A determination is made of a relationship of the first content to second content based, at least in part, on the vector received. Each value of the vector represents a relative position along a corresponding sliding scale between a minimum label and a maximum label for the sliding scale.

An approach is provided for displaying purchasing information on a mobile device. Purchasing information that is transmitted for display using a purchasing application on the mobile device is redirected for display on a browser application or a messaging application when the purchasing application is not resident on the mobile device.

An approach is provided for authenticating a mobile device. A mobile device initiates transmission of a request to an authentication platform for generating a public-key certificate to access a service from the mobile device. The mobile device receives an identity challenge and responds by initiating transmission of a tag specific to the mobile device to the authentication platform. The authentication platform uses the tag to generate a public-key certificate.

摘要:
Techniques for a device compatibility service include receiving a first query from a service indicating first device identification data related to a mobile communication device. A second query is initiated into multiple sources for the mobile communication device based on the received device identification data. In response to the received first query, the method further comprises causing to be sent to the service a response that indicates different data associated with the device identification data based on a database of device characteristics, wherein the service is adapted based on the device identification data. For example, in some embodiments the device identification data indicates a specific mobile communication device and the different data indicates characteristics of the specific device. In some embodiments, the device identification data indicates a specific device characteristic and the different data indicates devices associated with the specific device characteristic in the database.

An approach is provided for improving the security of a mobile device by clearing credentials from the mobile device in response to a new user obtaining the device. Credentials associated with an identity module of a mobile device are stored. A new identity module associated with the mobile device or removal of the identity module is detected. The credentials from the mobile device are cleared based on the detection.
