20090002127 | METHODS, APPARATUSES AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR AUTOMATIC ADJUSTMENT OF CALL & MESSAGE ALERT LEVELS FOR MISSED/REJECTED CALLS/MESSAGES - A device for intelligently adjusting a volume level for call/message alerts includes a processor, an interface(s), a memory, a timer and a volume adjuster. The processor receives a call(s)/message(s) and causes the memory to store data associated with the call(s)/message(s). The processor invokes a timer and instructs a ringer to generate a call/message alert. The processor receives an additional call(s)/message(s) and determines if these calls/messages are sent from the same user of an electronic device as a previous call/message within a time period. If a previous call/message was missed by a user of a terminal, the processor causes a ringer to increase the volume of a subsequent call/message sent from the user of the electronic device. If a previous call/message was rejected by a user of a terminal, the processor causes the ringer to decrease the volume of a subsequent call/message sent from the user of the electronic device. | 01-01-2009 |

20120329488 | Instant Messaging and Presence Services - A mobile telephone terminal provides a user with a selectable option to transfer a telephone call to an instant messaging session and to transfer an instant messaging session to a telephone call. A presence attribute indicator for a first party is displayed with an entry associated with the telephone number of the first party. A user has a selectable option for initiating instant messaging with the party. The mobile telephone provides a customised menu of selectable options for initiating communication. The menu is dependent upon received presence attribute information. A calendar application can store the content of an instant messaging dialogue in an appointment record.

20140113597 | Reminder Handling - A mobile telephone includes a reminder controller. A reminder can be entered either using the phone or using a remote terminal. Each reminder is associated with an event being the start of a particular application, or an event being an identifier in a software application becoming a preset value. The phone (I) operates to detect an application start event, following which it is determined whether a parameter associated with the reminder matches a parameter associated with the application and announces the reminder as appropriate. In this way, enhanced functionality is provided with the phone, since it is possible to set a reminder to be associated with an event other than the reaching of a particular time and date. | 04-24-2014 |
