Abstract
A mobile communication terminal is provided with a light-emitting element for notifying an unanswered incoming call. When the cancellation of an incoming call is canceled in a state where an incoming call response operation has not been carried out, the mobile communication terminal is brought into the standby state and then the light-emitting element is caused to emit light.
Claims14
A mobile communication terminal capable of communicating with another terminal via a network, comprising:
- first notifying means for notifying an incoming call to an user of the terminal, upon receiving the incoming call addressed to the terminal;
- first detecting means for detecting incoming call response operation while the incoming call is notified;
- second detecting means for detecting that the incoming call has been canceled by the network;
- and
- second notifying means includes at least one light-emitting element, for notifying an unanswered incoming call by causing the light-emitting element to emit light, after said second detecting means detects the cancellation of the incoming call before said first detecting means detects the incoming call response operation.
A mobile communication terminal having a first housing and a second housing rotatably connected to the first housing, said mobile communication terminal comprising:
- notifying means for notifying an incoming call to an user of the terminal from a network, upon receiving the incoming call addressed to the terminal;
- first detecting means for detecting incoming call response operation while the incoming call is notified;
- second detecting means for detecting that the incoming call has been canceled by the network;
- a first light-emitting element located to be invisible from outside while the first and second housings remain closed;
- a second light-emitting element located to be visible from outside even while the first and second housings remain closed;
- and
- control means for causing said first and second light-emitting elements to emit light after said second detecting means detects the cancellation of the incoming call before said first detecting means detects the operation that the user performs.
