P800/P802

White Paper, January 2003

Over-The-Air (OTA) Configuration

OTA remote configuration provides simple set-up of services. The user is spared the task of finding complex technical information and then manually entering it via the UI. Instead, a web request or a call to be the mobile operator’s helpdesk is all that is necessary – the appropriate settings can then be sent via SMS directly to the P800.

OTA configuration using the Ericsson/Nokia Over The Air Settings Specification enables the following parameters to be provisioned:

WAP Account (Account name & WAP Gateway settings; Like a WAP Profile on the R380)

ISP Settings (Bearer information, username, password)

Bookmark (name and URL)

SyncML settings

MMS Settings

The following parameters may be remotely configured according to WAP Forum specifications:

WAP Account

ISP Settings

Further OTA configuration is provided using Nokia Smart Messaging. It is used to set up E-Mail accounts, specifically:

ISP (Bearer information, username, password, IP and DNS addresses, login script)

E-Mail account (Username, password, address, server details)

Sony Ericsson WAP Configurator

Sony Ericsson’s WAP Configurator provides WAP settings for many networks as a free service to owners of Sony Ericsson mobile phones. It may be found at http://www.sonyericsson.com/.

Factory Customisation

Factory customisation will be available to mobile operators and volume customers. This enables the hardware, applications, settings and media to be tailored to customer needs, including:

Customised One-button Internet Access

Pre-configured settings. ISP, WEB / WAP, GPRS etc

Pre-loaded content, including screensavers, wallpapers, ring tones, local WAP/WEB pages, pictures, demonstration MMS messages.

Bookmarks

Pre-loaded applications. Games, extended security, 3rd party applications

Organiser entries. Calendar, contacts, Jotter notes, Voice notes etc.

Certificates

Customised Flip

SIM lock

Customisation is carried out by loading the P800 with a uniquely identifiable customisation package, made up from the following elements:

Default values for user configurable settings

Default values for hidden settings (i.e. settings unavailable to the user via the UI. Hidden settings are used to switch between customisation alternatives anticipated in the generic system software).

Preloaded user data (i.e. content such as welcome documents and messages, notes, contacts, etc.)

Preinstalled executables (i.e. executable wizards, 3rd party applications, etc.)
