NETWORK-ADAPTIVE FUNCTION CONTROL METHOD FOR DUAL-MODE MOBILE TERMINAL

摘要

A network-adaptive function control method is provided for a dual-mode mobile terminal. The network-adaptive function control method for a dual-mode mobile terminal supports communication via first and second-type networks includes registering at least one function as a network-adaptive; determining, when a function is requested to be activated, whether the requested function is the network-adaptive function. If it is determined that the requested function is the network-adaptive function, it if determined whether the mobile terminal is in the first-type network; and activating, if the mobile terminal is in the first-type network, the requested function in association with the first-type network. The network-adaptive function control method of the present invention allows registering portable IP network-friendly functions that are served only in a portable IP network domain but not in the cellular network domain, thereby restricting handover to the costly cellular network, resulting in reduction of communication cost.

1. A method comprising:
presenting, via a display unit operatively coupled with an electronic device, a list of one or more user interfaces, each of the one or more user interfaces being associated with a respective function supporting communication, and at least one user interface of the one or more user interfaces indicating a state of the respective function, the state comprising one of:
a first state to perform the communication using any of a first network or a second network, ora second state to perform the communication using only the first network; and changing the state based on a user input received in relation with the at least one user interface.
