Abstract: An advance pairing system preemptively pairs a phone to a vehicle using a backend cloud system prior to establishing the connection with the vehicle, such as during the time that a user is purchasing a vehicle, or just after the user enters the vehicle for the first time. The system includes a mobile application for automated advance pairing with the vehicle's automotive computer. The mobile app sends a request for advance pairing to a server that assigns a set of unique keys to the account for secure pairing of the mobile device and the vehicle. The server pushes an encrypted payload to both the mobile device app and the vehicle advance pairing app operating on the automotive computer. The encrypted payload can include a unique vehicle ID, a unique mobile device ID, and one or more encryption keys. The mobile device and the vehicle use the encrypted advance pairing information to establish a secured connection with minimal user input.

Abstract: A method of accommodating legacy devices in which application memory is not able to operate fast enough to reliably receive data from a relay or other external device is disclosed. An application queue memory space is provided, either as a separate memory chip or as an area created and maintained by program code, to act as an intermediary between the slower application memory and the external device. This application queue memory space is preferably a transport stack.

Abstract: A system for enhancing network-browsing speed by setting a proxy server on a handheld device is disclosed. The system comprises a browser for sending a request for requesting a message from a website and receiving a response in response to the request, a proxy server for transcoding and compressing the request, and transcoding and decompressing the response including the requested message, a wireless network communicably linked to the proxy server, and Mobile Data Service (MDS) gateway communicably linked to the wireless network for transcoding and decompressing the request, and transcoding and compressing the response including the requested message from the website.

Abstract: A system and method of polling for a network identifier value is provided. Within a wireless device, a transport layer or application layer polls a radio layer for a network identifier value on a first basis. However, upon occurrence of an event of a predefined type, the transport layer polls for the network identifier value on a more frequent basis than the first basis. At some later time, the transport layer polls for the network identifier value on the first basis. Accordingly, the transport layer achieves a balance of polling frequently at certain times so as to obtain an accurate network identifier value while minimizing undue polling at other times so as to conserve battery power.

Abstract: A method of automatically keeping sockets open for always-on applications in a GPRS context is provided. Information is maintained by each wireless device identifying each APN (access point name)-port pair associated with a PDP (packet data protocol) context used by an always-on application. Upon the PDP context becoming available after having become unavailable, a socket is registered for each port-APN pair associated with the PDP context.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a scheme is provided for assigning a personalized indicium to a mobile communications device which includes logic means operable to generate a temporary Personal Information Number (PIN) for transmitting in a request to a network node. Upon validating the request, a response is provided by the network node to the mobile communications device, the response including a permanent PIN assigned to the mobile communications device.

Abstract: In accordance with the teaching described herein, systems and methods are provided for managing memory space in a mobile device. A plurality of data storage locations may be included. A plurality of software applications may be included, with each software application being operable to store data to a different data storage location. A data store management system may be operable to access and delete data stored in the plurality of data storage locations. If insufficient memory space is available in one of the data storage locations, then the data store management system may access the one data storage location and at least one other data storage location and delete data from at least one of the accessed data storage locations.
