20100087169 | THREADING TOGETHER MESSAGES WITH MULTIPLE COMMON PARTICIPANTS - In a mobile communications device, a conversation identifier is generated for each of a plurality of messages. Each conversation identifier is generated based on addresses of message participants identified in the message. A request to display a particular message of the multiple messages is received. In response to the request, one or more other messages of the plurality of messages having a same conversation identifier as the particular message are identified based on the generated conversation identifiers. At least two of the one or more other messages are displayed concurrently. | 04-08-2010 |
20100087173 | Inter-threading Indications of Different Types of Communication - Different phones are identified as being part of different groups, and indications of communications with the different phones are displayed on a particular phone by group. The indications of communications of different types are displayed inter-threaded chronologically. These communications with the different phones can include communications received from the different phones and communications sent to the different phones. | 04-08-2010 |
20100105424 | Mobile Communications Device User Interface - Mobile communications device user interface techniques are described. In an implementation, a mobile communications device receives an input via a QWERTY keyboard of the mobile communications device and translates one or more letters in the input into one or more corresponding numbers in accordance with a telephone keypad layout. A telephone call is placed using the one or more corresponding numbers. | 04-29-2010 |
20100145675 | USER INTERFACE HAVING CUSTOMIZABLE TEXT STRINGS - A user interface having customizable text strings is described. In an implementation, a mobile communication device comprises one or more modules to provide an option to specify a target demographic for the mobile communication device. The option is configured such that a language, intended market, and at least one other characteristic of the target demographic may be specified. One or more text strings may then be obtained based on the target demographic that was specified to be output in a user interface on the mobile communication device. | 06-10-2010 |
20100304729 | IN-CALL CONTACT INFORMATION DISPLAY - Call control information regarding a phone call that a user of a mobile communications device is currently engaged in with an individual is displayed on a screen.
