Abstract: An identifier may be generated for an endpoint device associated with a user device. The identifier may include first data indicating that the identifier is generated, second data identifying the user device, and third data identifying the endpoint device from a plurality of endpoint devices associated with the user device. The identifier may be formatted as an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI). The first data may include a three-digit mobile country code (MCC) not associated with a country. The second data may include a telephone number associated with the user device. The third data includes a counter value incremented for endpoint devices associated with the user device.

Abstract: A background noise inserter server is described that includes a communication interface for communicating with a network, memory for storing background audio, and a processor coupled to the communication interface and the memory. The processor controls the server to connect to a phone call session in response to a session initiation protocol (SIP) invite from a calling device indicating that the calling device is requesting the background audio in the phone call session with a called device. The processor also controls the server to insert the background audio into the phone call session so that the inserted background audio is mixed with audio from the phone call session transmitted to both the calling device and the called device.

Abstract: A method for adding an additional endpoint for a service based on a short messaging service (SMS) message may include receiving a request to add a second user equipment (UE) as an additional endpoint for a service associated with a first UE, and generating a transaction identifier in response to receiving the request. The method may include sending a command to provide a short message service (SMS) message to the first UE requesting permission to add the second UE as the additional endpoint, and receiving a message granting permission to add the second UE as the additional endpoint, where the message may include a network identifier assigned to the first UE. The method may include generating credential(s) for authorizing the second UE to access the service, and may then provide the credential(s) to the second UE.

Abstract: A method includes accessing, at a first user device, an application that coordinates ringing of multiple user devices registered to a smart phone number that are within a predetermined proximity of each other. The method includes broadcasting an identity and a ring state associated with the user device. A presence is to be detected within the predetermined proximity of at least one additional user device associated with the smart phone number. The method includes determining a ringing user device based on predetermined rules of selection between the at least one additional user device and the first user device. The method further includes determining activity to be performed by at least one other user device in event of an incoming call to the smart phone number. The method also includes receiving an incoming call at the smart phone number and ringing the ringing device.

Abstract: Voice to text (VTT) call transcription technologies are provided. At least one server receives a request from a mobile device to initiate a transcription of voice communication of a call between the mobile device and another device. The server, responsive to the request, establishes a bridged communication session between the server, the mobile device, the other device and a VTT system. The bridged communication session includes the voice communication of the call that is exchanged between the mobile device and the other device. The VTT system converts the voice communication of the call in the bridged communication session to a text transcription. The VTT system sends the text transcription of the voice communication of the call, for example, to the first mobile device.

Abstract: A note data message is associated with a first user equipment (UE) device and is sent to a second UE device when the second UE device communicates with the first UE device. The note data message is received and stored in a network server. A request is received from the second UE device to establish a communication session with the first UE device. If the first UE device has authorized the sending of the message to the second device, the note data message is sent to the second UE device independent of any communication session established between the first and second UE devices.
