Estimating the term…
The present invention encompasses an electronic device operated in a communication system (for example CDMA, TDMA, GSM, etc.). The electronic device comprises a method that adjusts a dialing sequence, used to initiate a call, based on the current location of the electronic device. The method adjusts the dialing sequence to add any missing information, such an area code, country code, etc., thereby allowing the user to only provide a minimum length of dialing sequence when placing a call to a called party. Also, if the dialing sequence is represents one of the emergency numbers, then the method adjust the dialing sequence to use an emergency number used within a region defined by the current location.
A method within an electronic device for adjusting a dialing sequence used for initiating a call in a wireless communication system, the electronic device operating in a region, the method comprising the steps of:
An electronic device operated in a region, the electronic device receiving a dialing sequence for initiating a call in a wireless communication system, the electronic device comprising:
The electronic device as claimed in claim 21, wherein said processor further determines a position of the electronic device.
The electronic device as claimed in claim 21, wherein said processor further determines if a length of the dialing sequence equals to a minimum length required by the region associated with said first area code.
The electronic device as claimed in claim 21, wherein said processor further determines if a length of the dialing sequence equals to a minimum length required by a home region associated with an assigned home area code of the electronic device.
A method within an electronic device for adjusting a dialing sequence used for initiating a call in a wireless communication system, the electronic device operating in a current region defined by current location of the electronic device, the method comprising the steps of:
An electronic device operated in a current region based on current location of the electronic device and receiving a dialing sequence for initiating a call in a wireless communication system, the electronic device comprising:
