Maintenance methods, devices and systems for mobile communications system

Abstract

A maintenance method includes a maintenance module 280a operating on a mobile communications device 201 to cause the device to determine if the mobile communications device is in a device context as specified by a device context condition set 311, and if so then to cause the device to collect an actual device context parameter set 323 of device context parameters specified in a desired device context parameter set 315 of device context parameters. A mobile communications device 201 including a handheld casing enclosing a central processing unit 240, wireless communications capabilities 262, 211, and a maintenance module 280a providing instructions which, when operating on the central processing unit 240, cause the device 201 to determine if the mobile communications device 201 is in a device context as specified by a device context condition set 311, and if so then to collect from the device an actual device context parameter set 323 of device context parameters specified in a desired device context parameter set 315.
