The transceiver may prevent the mobile device from entering an inactive state by transmitting S2 a control signal just before the device is due to enter that state, may transmit S4 a control signal which alters the power saving settings of the mobile device and may transmit a control signal S6 which unlocks a password protected sleep mode. Unlocking of the password protected sleep mode may be achieved through voice recognition of the user uttering the password.
