METHOD AND APPARATUS TO INITIATE A COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE

摘要

To reduce memory space for storing applications only one copy, of otherwise duplicate coding, may be provided in a telecommunications device. To ensure that certain telephony functions are enabled relatively quickly on start-up of the device the invention provides a method of initialising telephony functionality and then initialising other functionality in two sequential phases, where the first phase includes initialising parts of the other functionality that are relied on by the telephone functionality prior to initialising other parts that the telephony functionality does not use.
