20130163947 | Method to Stabilize Video Stream Using On-Device Positional Sensors - A video device is provided. The video device comprises a sensor to determine an amount of movement of the video device, a memory component to store video-related information, and a processor to receive movement information from the sensor and to interrupt communication of video-related information to the memory component when the movement information indicates that acceleration of the video device exceeds a threshold. | 06-27-2013 |
20130179072 | METHOD TO GEO-TAG STREAMING MUSIC - Songs titles and song artists or other content received on an HD-radio are cross-referenced to one or more geographic locations where they were heard on the radio by identifying a song title or artist in the HD radio data stream and instructing a global positioning system navigation unit to contemporaneously determine its location. The determined location and song title and/or artist are cross-referenced to each other in a list or database. A touch-sensitive display device is configured to display the location or portion of a route where a listened-to song was heard. Song titles and/or artists can be determined by tactile selection of portions of a route displayed on the map. | 07-11-2013 |
20130290435 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR UPDATING MESSAGE BODY CONTENT BASED ON RECIPIENT CHANGES - A method, device and system are provided for automated insertion of message conversation or thread participant changes in a message body prior to receipt of the message by a recipient of the reply message. Once a reply message is initiated at a first device and an initial recipient set defined for the reply message based on the participants of a previous message of the thread, one or more changes may be made to the recipients specified for the message. In response to a trigger detected at the device, changes to the initial recipient set are identified and indicated by a textual or other notification within the body of the reply message, rather than merely in a header or addressing portion of the reply message. The indication may then be viewable using a recipient messaging client even if header information reflecting the change in recipients is not displayed by the client. | 10-31-2013 |
20130290436 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR UPDATING MESSAGE RECIPIENTS BASED ON MESSAGE BODY INDICATORS - A method, device and system are provided for automated updating of message recipients designated for a reply message based on a declaration or notification in a body of the message. Once a reply message is initiated at a first device and an initial recipient set defined for the reply message based on the participants of a previous message of the thread, a declaration or instruction may be inserted in the message body identifying a change to be made to the initial recipient set. In response to a trigger detected at the device, any such declarations are identified and a determination is made whether the current recipient set is consistent with them. If not, changes are made to the current recipient set to render it consistent. | 10-31-2013 |
20130295848 | System and Method for Polling a Network Service - A method of operating a mobile device is provided, the method comprising: pairing the mobile device with a second device; having the second device poll a network service on behalf of the mobile device; and obtaining data provided by the network service. A method of operating on behalf of a mobile device is also provided, the method comprising: pairing a second device with the mobile device; polling a network service on behalf of the mobile device; and enabling data provided by the network service to be sent to the mobile device. | 11-07-2013 |
20130304825 | METHOD, SYSTEM AND APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING CALENDAR EVENTS - According to embodiments described in the specification, a method, system and apparatus for processing calendar events are provided. The method comprises: receiving a calendar event invitation message addressed to at least one recipient device and storing the calendar event invitation message in a memory; determining, at a processor, whether to disable at least one recipient device function; when the determination is affirmative, generating a recipient policy including a recipient device function identifier, and a rule associated with the function identifier; and deploying the recipient policy for the at least one recipient device such that the function is disabled at the recipient device for at least a period of time. | 11-14-2013 |
20140092904 | System and method for requesting content using an electronic device - A method and system are provided for requesting content using an electronic device. The electronic device is operable to connect to a communication network using a network connection. The method includes detecting connection information regarding the network connection, determining at least one property of the content to be requested using the connection information and sending a protocol request to a server using the communication network, the protocol request comprising header information indicative of the at least one property. | 04-03-2014 |
20140173490 | SELECTION OF FILES FOR ALBUM CREATION ON ELECTRONIC DEVICES - A method of selecting a group of files on an electronic device. The method includes rendering a slide bar on a display of the electronic device, the slide bar configured to display a time period corresponding to a temporal characteristic of one or more of multiple files stored in memory of the electronic device, responsive to user manipulation of the slide bar adjusting the time period represented by the slide bar, and responsive to user input creating an album and placing the files having temporal characteristic within the adjusted time period in the album. | 06-19-2014 |
20140357184 | Method to Geo-Tag Streaming Music - Songs titles and song artists or other content received on an HD-radio are cross-referenced to one or more geographic locations where they were heard on the radio by identifying a song title or artist in the HD radio data stream and instructing a global positioning system navigation unit to contemporaneously determine its location. The determined location and song title and/or artist are cross-referenced to each other in a list or database. A touch-sensitive display device is configured to display the location or portion of a route where a listened-to song was heard. Song titles and/or artists can be determined by tactile selection of portions of a route displayed on the map. | 12-04-2014 |
