G900c
50
August 2008
G900c can play both iMelody format ringtones and
the following polyphonic formats: AMR, AU, MIDI,
RMF (Beatnik), MP3 and WAV.
A system default ringtone is provided. This is the
ringtone when G900c is first initialised. It cannot be
deleted and is retained after a master reset.
A personal ringtone may be selected for a contact –
the user simply selects the ringtone while entering
or editing the contact's details. When the Calling
Line Identification (CLI) of the incoming call is
matched to a contact, the personal ringtone for
that contact will be played. If the ringtone has been
deleted, moved, renamed or is located on a
memory card and the phone is connected to a
computer as a USB mass storage device, then the
system default ringtone will be played.
If no CLI information is available, then only a default
ringtone can be played. If the user has selected a
personalized default ringtone and it is available
(can be read from the Phone memory or an
inserted memory card) then it will be played,
otherwise the system default ringtone will be
played.
Themes and skins
A theme or skin is a way to provide a complete
customized visual experience for the user.
Themes can define:
• Text, outline and background colours.
• Background images.
• Graphical appearance of interface elements.
• Sounds for events, for example, ringtones, mes-
sage alerts, notification, area info, auto set-up
and reminder.
Themes and skins can be created or downloaded.
Over-The-Air (OTA) configuration
OTA remote configuration provides a simple setup
of services. The user is spared the task of finding
complex technical information and then manually
entering it via the user interface. Instead, a Web
request or a call to the mobile Operator's helpdesk
is all that is needed – the appropriate settings are
then sent via SMS directly to the phone.
OTA configuration using the OMA Client
Provisioning v1.1 (WAP OMA Provisioning)
specification – a backward compatible extension of
the client provisioning functionality included in
WAP 2.0 (v1.0) – enables the following parameters
to be provisioned:
• WAP account (account name and WAP Gate-
way settings).
• ISP settings (bearer information, username,
password).
• Browser settings including Bookmark (name
and URL).
• OMA DS Sync settings (SyncML).
• MMS settings.
• Email account for POP3, IMAP4 and SMTP
including settings (username, password,
address, server details).
• OMA Device Management.
