Abstract: A method and apparatus for automatically updating a device that has intermittent network connectivity are described in this disclosure. The method includes receiving, at an electronic device from a server, a notification containing information about a promotion for at least one product, determining, based on the received notification, a change in the promotion for the at least one product, updating an action associated with the promotion based on the determined change in the promotion, and executing the updated action associated with the promotion without a network connection to the server.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer-readable medium for managing screen burn-in. The method includes identifying information about an electronic device having a display. The method also includes determining a version of a video be sent to the electronic device and one or more times for the electronic device to display the determined video version based on the identified information. Additionally, the method includes sending information about the determined video version and the one or more times to the electronic device. The video includes display of a sequence of different colors for different durations designed to at least remediate or reduce screen burn-in of the display.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for synchronizing shared data in mobile terminal and server. A disclosed method includes, creating a new data entry in a user contact information document of a first user on an address book server and granting a second user access to the data entry, wherein the user contact information document includes an address entry for sharing the data entry with the second user.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for synchronizing address book in mobile terminal and server client is disclosed. A disclosed method comprises, upon initiation of execution of an address book application in a mobile terminal, transmitting a start signal having an address book identification to an address book agent. In response to the start signal, receiving synchronization information for synchronizing an address book of the address book application, the synchronization information being generated by the address book agent in response to update information from an address book server. The method further comprises synchronizing the address book of the application using the synchronization information.

Abstract: A system for remote handset diagnostics is provided. The system includes a plurality of handsets each having a diagnostic engine, and a carrier system having a plurality of encoder/decoder components. Each encoder/decoder component is operable to promote communication with at least one diagnostic engine to obtain diagnostic data. The carrier system further includes a diagnostic component that is operable to provide a common interface for diagnosing handsets. The diagnostic component is also operable to communicate with the plurality of encoder/decoder components and to facilitate diagnosis of the handset.

Abstract: A system for handset self diagnostics is provided. The system includes a handset and a diagnostic engine on the handset to obtain diagnostic data for the handset. The system also includes an application on the handset, and the application includes at least one user interface that uses the diagnostic data to assist a user of the handset to operate the handset.
