Abstract: A method and apparatus that enables incremental control the flow of downlink data on an external interface-by-interface basis, reducing the risk of repeatedly exhausting internal memory resources. A mobile device (300), having a plurality of device interfaces (328–330) for transmitting data received from a network (306) through a network controller (302), includes an identity associating layer (322) that associates identifiers with packet data protocol contexts corresponding to the plurality of device interfaces. A general resource indicator (334) generates a first indication in response to system memory of the mobile device being substantially exhausted, and a private resource indicator (336) generates a second indication in response to private resources corresponding to the plurality of device interfaces being substantially exhausted.

Abstract: A method for routing data call events to at least one termination point coupled to a mobile communication device in communication with a mobile communication network. The method can include assigning criteria to the at least one termination point, receiving a data call event of a type of communication at the mobile communication device from the mobile communication network, determining a termination point recipient by comparing the type of communication with the criteria, and routing the communication to the termination point recipient. The method can also include assigning second criteria to a second termination point, receiving a data call event of a second type of communication at the mobile communication device from the mobile communication network, determining a second device recipient by comparing the second type of communication with the second criteria, and routing the second type of communication to the second device recipient.
