Abstract: An aspect of the present disclosure includes methods, systems, and computer-readable media for triggering the single signal during the first buffer period to concurrently adjust a first plurality of gain states of a first plurality of low-noise amplifiers associated with a first expected reception of the first symbol on the first component carrier and a second plurality of gain states of a second plurality of low-noise amplifiers associated with a second expected reception of the second symbol on the second component carrier, and receiving the first symbol via the first component carrier and the second symbol via the second component carrier after the first buffer period.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for updating persistent data in a wireless communications device. The wireless communications device receives patch manager run time instructions from an airlink interface. A run-time engine is launched. The run-time engine receives the patch manager run time instructions with dynamic instruction sets and new code sections, including updated persistent data. The run-time engine processes the dynamic instruction sets. In response to processing the dynamic instruction sets, the run-time engine selectively updates persistent data in the system software. The updated persistent data may, for example, be selected from the following: radio frequency (RF) calibration data, nonvolatile system and user configuration data, resource data, nonvolatile system and user application data, and arbitrary data.

Abstract: A system and method of conducting wireless communications between a wireless communication device (WCD) and both a first network (e.g., IS-2000) supporting voice and data services and a second network (e.g., IS-856) supporting packet data services. The method comprises providing the WCD with a primary transceiver and a secondary receiver for conducting wireless communications in a spatial diversity for the second network traffic or broadcast; disabling the secondary receiver and spatial diversity before a paging slot or 1x system acquisition and synchronization attempts; tuning the secondary receiver to a first network carrier frequency to perform first network activities; and retuning the secondary receiver to a second network carrier frequency for spatial diversity after performing the first network activities. The first network activities may include pilot set maintenance, overhead message maintenance, page match detection, or 1x system acquisition and synchronization attempts.

Abstract: A system and method of improving wireless communications between a wireless communication device and both a first network supporting voice and data services and a second network supporting packet data services. The method comprises providing the WCD with a primary transceiver and a secondary receiver for conducting wireless communications in both a simultaneous-mode and a hybrid-mode; performing simultaneous-mode-to-hybrid-mode and hybrid-mode-to-simultaneous-mode transitions based on a performance metric; and evaluating the performance metric to determine whether to perform the mode transitions. In the simultaneous-mode, the primary transceiver conducts wireless communications in the second network and the secondary receiver conducts wireless communications in the first network. In the hybrid-mode, the primary transceiver use is time multiplexed during all of the first and second networks communications combinations.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for updating persistent data in a wireless communications device. The method comprises: executing system software; launching a run-time engine; receiving the patch manager run time instructions with dynamic instruction sets and new code sections, including updated persistent data, in a file system section in nonvolatile memory; processing dynamic instruction sets; in response to processing the dynamic instruction sets, selectively updating persistent data in the system software selected from the group including radio frequency (RF) calibration data, nonvolatile system and user configuration data, resource data, nonvolatile system and user application data, and arbitrary data; and, executing the system software with the updated persistent data.
