Patent number: 9141367Abstract: A wireless communication device receives a user request to download a software application and wirelessly receives the software application. The wireless communication device presents multiple application management tiers for the software application. The wireless communication device receives a user selection of a first application management tier for the software application. The wireless communication wirelessly transfers the user selection of the first application management tier for the software application and wirelessly receives a network selection of a second application management tier for the software application from the communication network. The wireless communication presents the second application management tier for the software application.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2014Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Tuan Q. Tran, Jason Ward, Raymond Emilio Reeves

Publication number: 20140004818Abstract: A wireless communication device communicates with a data network in response to data access operations generated by a plurality of applications operating within the wireless communication device. The wireless communication device displays a plurality of framed icons based on icons individually associated with each of the applications and monitors the applications to determine a data throughput for the data access operations on a per-application basis. The wireless communication device processes the data throughput to select frame colors on a per-application basis, and directs the wireless communication device to display the framed icons with the selected frame colors.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2013Publication date: January 2, 2014Applicant: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Jason N. Ward, Tuan Q. Tran, Raymond Emilio Reeves

Patent number: 8560963Abstract: A wireless communication device communicates with a data network in response to data access operations generated by a plurality of applications operating within the wireless communication device. The wireless communication device displays a plurality of framed icons based on icons individually associated with each of the applications and monitors the applications to determine a frequency and data throughput for the data access operations on a per-application basis. The wireless communication device processes the frequency to select numeric indicators on a per-application basis, processes the data throughput to select frame colors on a per-application basis, and directs the wireless communication device to display the framed icons with the selected frame colors and with bubbles having the numeric indicators.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2011Date of Patent: October 15, 2013Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Jason N. Ward, Tuan Q. Tran, Raymond Emilio Reeves

Patent number: 8504021Abstract: A wireless communication device is disclosed for scanning a preferred roaming list (PRL) in a non-roaming mode. The wireless communication device exchanges wireless communications with a first wireless communication network and monitors communication performance of the first wireless communication network while operating in a non-roaming mode. The wireless communication device processes the PRL to perform scans for a pilot signal from a second wireless communication network while operating in the non-roaming mode. The wireless communication device subsequently performs a time correlation of the communication performance of the first wireless communication network and the scans for the pilot signal of the second wireless communication network to determine that a roaming mode should be entered. The roaming mode is then entered and the wireless communication device exchanges wireless communications with the second wireless communication network while operating in the roaming mode.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2011Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Benjamin P. Blinn, Jason N. Ward, Tuan Q. Tran, Louis Eric Wingo, Cesar Perez

Patent number: 8327845Abstract: An inline vaporizer disposed in a carrier gas line vaporizes a fluid and adds such vaporized fluid to a carrier gas that flows within the carrier gas line. The vaporizer includes a reservoir or wick that transfers a fluid to a vaporizing element that is adjacent to the reservoir or wick. The vaporizer releases a vapor into the carrier gas line so that the carrier gas flows past the vaporizer to form a vapor and carrier gas mixture.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2009Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: Hydrate, Inc.Inventors: Lawrence A. Weinstein, Douglas H. Currie, Jr., James R. Scott, Tuan Q. Tran
