Bluetooth
GPRS HSCSD or CSD
To perform a ‘Send’ beam operation using infra- red, the two devices are lined up and the sender initiates the transfer.
To beam over Bluetooth, a scan finds the other activated (discoverable) devices within range. The user can then select the required device and send the information across.
When sending via SMS, MMS or email, the required message type is created with the selected object attached. It is then sent over the air.
Device Management
Device Management in this product is achieved by supporting Over The Air provisioning 7.1 (OTA), OMA Client Provisioning 1.1 (CP) and OMA Device Management (DM) 1.1.2.
OTA and CP are transmitted to the terminal from the network using SMS, the initiation of the provisioning can be done e.g. by the user using a provisioning service or by the operator. When receiving an OTA or CP the user is asked to install new set- tings.
DM utilizes GPRS as bearer (basic network connectivity needs to be in place) of the provisioning data and allows the operator to access the phone and check and set different settings such as Network connectivity (GPRS), email, MMS, WAP and JAVA. For example, if a user is having problems with connecting to the Internet then he/she can
contact their operator and ask them to go in and check the settings in the phone via a DM server. When this happens the DM server which the operator is using connects to the phone and the phone asks the user to approve the DM server to access the phone. If the user allows access then the settings are checked and if found faulty then cor- rected. To be able to do this the phone has to be equipped with DM account settings. Either the user receives the settings from an operator or the settings are already in the phone when it is sold. The DM server is able to collect information directly from the phone and to send back the correct settings to the user.
SyncML is the protocol that both DM and Remote sync uses when they are active.
