Patent number: 9432439Abstract: In accordance with the invention, mobile phones and other electronic devices access content through links, rather than storing the content on the mobile phone or at a location under the control of a mobile phone operator. A user retrieves the content by accessing a link on the mobile phone, which results in transferring the content from a content-provider location directly to the mobile phone. In this way, the mobile phone operator does not have to reserve storage for the content, and the content provider, alerted that the user is restoring or otherwise requesting content, is able to offer the user upgrades, replacement content, and related content. To better offer a user relevant content, a history of purchases for the mobile phone, the user, or both is maintained.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2012Date of Patent: August 30, 2016Assignee: Synchronoss Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Richard Onyon, Liam Stannard, Leighton Ridgard, Robert E. Garner

Publication number: 20070053335Abstract: Technology is provided to allow users of wireless mobile devices to propagate personal contact information to other users in an automated fashion. Users can create a “persona” of information which is made public, or destined for groups or individual friends, which is then distributed and added to the mobile device's address book or other data store in an automated or semi-automated fashion. A process for installing personification information to a first wireless device includes: detecting a communication initiation between the first wireless device and a second wireless device user; in response to said detecting, retrieving published persona information of the second wireless device user; and storing the published persona information in an address book on the first wireless device.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 19, 2006Publication date: March 8, 2007Inventors: Richard Onyon, Liam Stannard, Leighton Ridgard

Publication number: 20050099963Abstract: A data transmission system which optimizes transfer and updates of information between systems by providing difference information between the systems is disclosed. Information transfer can occur one way (broadcast) or two-way (sync). In a first aspect, the system includes a differencing transmitter transmitting at least one set of difference transactions and a differencing receiver receiving said at least one set of difference transactions. The differencing transmitter of the data transmission system may comprise a difference source interface, a copy of a previous state of said difference source, and a difference transaction generator. The differencing receiver of the data transmission system comprises a difference destination interface, a copy of a previous state of said difference destination, and a destination data constructor. In a further embodiment, the data transmission system is coupled to a network.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 28, 2004Publication date: May 12, 2005Inventors: David Multer, Robert Garner, Leighton Ridgard, Liam Stannard, Donald Cash, Richard Onyon
