Abstract: A location proxy server receives a network-initiated location request. The location proxy server determines the location request is a coarse location request for a mobile device. The location proxy server forwards the coarse location request for the mobile device to a location server. The location server completes a control plane function to determine the location of the mobile device and provides a location answer to the location proxy server. The location proxy server provides the location answer to the application server initiating the location request.

A brewing device comprising the capsule holder and a method of brewing a tea-based beverage in the brewing device are also provided.

Abstract: Alignment of a first micro-electronic component to a receiving surface of a second micro-electronic component is realized by a capillary force-induced self-alignment, combined with an electrostatic alignment. The latter is accomplished by providing at least one first electrical conductor line along the periphery of the first component, and at least one second electrical conductor along the periphery of the location on the receiving surface of the second component onto which the component is to be placed. The contact areas surrounded by the conductor lines are covered with a wetting layer. The electrical conductor lines may be embedded in a strip of anti-wetting material that runs along the peripheries to create a wettability contrast. The wettability contrast helps to maintain a drop of alignment liquid between the contact areas so as to obtain self-alignment by capillary force.

Abstract: Liquid ingress event detection methods and detectors are provided. Temperature and moisture data are synchronously collected from at least one sensor unit coupled to an electronic device susceptible to liquid damage. A rate of change of each of the temperature data and the moisture data are determined, to form respective temperature change rate data and moisture change rate data. Each of the temperature change rate data and the moisture change rate data are compared to at least one predetermined liquid ingress condition. A liquid ingress event is identified when at least one of the temperature change rate data or the moisture change rate data matches the predetermined liquid ingress condition. An indication of the identified liquid ingress event is stored.

Abstract: A mobile device has several ways to determine position, some of which rely on interaction with the network. Once mobile device establishes a call, the call may remain on the network access technology and band over which the call was established, even if the call requires services not supported by the network access technology and/or band. So, when a call requires a position determination (e.g. emergency call), the mobile device selects a network access technology and band which will potentially improve the probability and accuracy of position determination, even if interaction with the network is not required because other position determination techniques (e.g. GPS) may be available.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods of treatment and diagnosis of subjects with cancer. In some aspects, the invention relates to methods of treatment and diagnosis of subjects with cancer, wherein the cancer is characterized by a Notch pathway activation mutation or by resistance to a Notch pathway inhibitor.

Abstract: Systems and methods for self-provisioning of mobile devices are disclosed. An implementation includes determining whether the SIM of a mobile device is associated with a wireless network provider, sending an attachment request to a wireless data network of the wireless network provider when the mobile device is within a coverage area of the wireless data network, receiving an attachment response from the wireless data network of the wireless network provider in response to the attachment request, determining from the attachment response, whether attachment to the wireless data network of the wireless network provider is successful, reviewing an error code provided by the wireless network provider and based on the error code, displaying a user interface allowing a user to provision the SIM for receiving service from the wireless network provider.

Abstract: The described examples provide a system and methods for identifying a location of a mobile device within an indoor venue using cellular communication signals obtained while the mobile device is within the indoor venue. An array of antennas arranged within the indoor venue detects cellular communication signals transmitted by the mobile device. The detected cellular communication signals have detectable and measurable signal parameters that allow the location of the mobile device within the indoor venue and an identifier of the mobile device to be determined. The determined identifier of the mobile device may also be used to identify the mobile device subscriber. The mobile device indoor location information may be used to update an anonymized subscriber profile associated with the mobile device subscriber.

Abstract: Methods and systems are configured for accessing content supported wireless communications services. A method for obtaining non-subscription access to a network may include sending a request to access a network, and determining if subscription access to the network was granted. When subscription access is not granted, the method may further include receiving terms for non-subscription access to the network upon determining subscription access was not granted, determining if the received terms for non-subscription access were accepted, and then receiving advertising content and non-subscription access to the network in response to determining the terms for non-subscription access were accepted.

Abstract: Dynamically generated quick response (QR) codes are used for secure communication to/from mobile devices. In one example, a QR code identifies a product or service selected by a user using a mobile device. The mobile device generates the QR code identifying the user's selection, and displays the QR code for reading by a retail kiosk. The retail kiosk, such as movie-rental kiosk, extracts the product or service selection encoded in QR code and provides the identified product or service to the user. The QR code can additionally identify a user account, such that payment for the product or service is automatically charged to the account identified from the QR code. In another example, the QR code is used to transfer money and/or credits between a user and a retailer, or between two users.

Abstract: A customer is permitted to self-activate a mobile device purchased via a commercial sales channel. Upon powering on the mobile device, the mobile device establishes a restricted service session through the network to a self-activation service and the mobile device queries the self-activation service for any pending order related to the mobile device which may have been generated during the purchase process. The communications with the self-activation service, however, support completing the pending order, activating the mobile device and communicating to the user that activation is complete. Part of the activation procedure configures one or more network elements to provide service for the device in a normal unrestricted manner. When provisioning is complete, the restricted access configuration used to establish the session with the self-activation service is removed.

Abstract: Single sign on (SSO) functionality is provided across native and hybrid applications executing on a mobile communication device, such that both native and hybrid applications can access authenticated services offered through respective application servers without repeatedly providing authentication credentials. In operation, the mobile device obtains an SSO token from an SSO server providing the SSO functionality, and native applications executing on the mobile device retrieve the SSO token from memory for use in accessing authenticated services. In the case of hybrid applications, an alias is assigned to the mobile device in response to receiving a page request received from the hybrid application. The alias is associated with SSO token of the mobile device in the SSO server, and is used to provide the SSO token directly to the hybrid application from the SSO server such that the hybrid application can use the SSO token for authentication.
