Method to parameterize a communication service provided by a server of a service provider to a user's communication module via a portable device

A device for parameterizing a communication service delivered by a server of a service provider to a communication module of a user, the communication service being configured in accordance with an availability status, the portable device or the communication module being parameterized in relation to the user's new availability status, the device comprising:

• a data processor configured to:
• detecting a change in context of use of a portable device of the user separate from a change in context of use of the communication module by detecting a change of the display mode of the information fed back by the portable device;
• receiving, by the communication module, a message from the portable device containing information indicating the change in context of use of the portable device;
• determining a new availability status of a user as a function of the detected change in context of use;
• an interface capable of transmitting a message relating to the new availability status of the user to the server of the service provider or the communication module, so that the communication service is configured on the basis of the determined new availability status of the user;
• and
• a portable device user interface capable of feeding information back to the user relating to the determined new availability status, wherein the portable device user interface displays interface elements corresponding to a set of functionalities to be displayed, the feedback of information on the user's new availability status comprises selecting the set of functionalities to be displayed as a function of the user's new availability status and displaying interface elements corresponding to the set of selected functionalities.
