Abstract: A mobile communication device, computer readable storage medium, and method for determining whether to download a full instance of an email. The mobile communication device determines a change in quality of service of wireless communication, and sends a request to completely download from an email server a full instance of an email, based on the mobile communication device determining that the change in quality of service of wireless communication indicates the mobile communication device is entering a poor wireless coverage area.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for managing data storage and access on a computing device. The computing device includes at least a first storage system and a second storage system. A unified file system interface is provided for facilitating interaction with the computing device, the unified file system interface configured as a file system capable of facilitating interaction with content of both the first storage system and the second storage system. Storage of content across the first storage system and the second storage system is managed in accordance with a rule set. File locations within the unified file system interface are independent of locations of corresponding content of the first storage system and the second storage system.

Abstract: A method in one example that receives a portion of an email and determines whether to download a full instance of the email based on user controlled variables and operator controlled variables.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems for electronic device recovery are disclosed. An example method includes determining that a software request received from a computing device includes an indication of a repair mode of an electronic device, determining a characteristic of the electronic device, determining software to be provided to the electronic device based on the characteristic, and in response to determining that the software request includes the indication of the repair mode, transmitting location information for the software to the computing device.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for managing data storage and access on a computing device. The computing device is associated with a storage system accessible via a first communication interface and a second communication interface. A unified file system interface facilitates interaction with the computing device and is operable to facilitate interaction with content of the storage system via either of the communication interfaces, as available. The unified file system interface is configured as a file system capable providing access to content of the storage system via alias file paths which are independent of whether the unified file system interface is operating in the first mode or the second mode.

Abstract: Methods and devices for facilitating download of content, particularly data, from a third-party server using an administration server. The administration server receives a request from an electronic device to download content from the third-party server over a wireless network connection. It then generates an authorization message in response to the request based on applying one or more pre-determined rules to the request, wherein the one or more pre-determined rules are based on an estimate of wireless network traffic load and sends the authorization message to the electronic device indicating whether the electronic device is authorized to establish a download session with the third-party server.

Abstract: Methods and devices for facilitating download of content, particularly data, from a third-party server using an administration server. The administration server determines that content is available on a third-party server. The administration server then determines that an electronic can establish a download session with the third-party server over a wireless network connection. The determination is based on analyzing one or more pre-determined rules, and the one or more pre-determined rules are based on an estimate of wireless network traffic load. In response to the determination, the administration server sends a notification to the electronic device to indicate that the content is available for download from the third-party server.

Abstract: Methods and system for on-demand patching of mobile device software bundles. A server pre-loaded with available bundles receives an update request from a mobile device and information regarding the current software bundle on the mobile device and the selected bundle requested by the mobile device. The server determines whether a patch exists and, if not, and if the server has a copy of the current software bundle, then the server generates a patch from the current software bundle to the selected software bundle. The patch may be tested and may be compressed prior to transmission to the mobile device. The server may filter available bundles to identify a list of bundles to which the mobile device is entitled to upgrade based on a number of criteria, including device type, vendor/carrier, user ID, current software bundle, geographic location and other factors.
