Abstract
The present invention provides a method and a device for backing up an unread short message, both of which can store a new short message received by a mobile communication terminal in a terminal storage and back up the new short message to a subscriber identity card, and delete, when a user reads or deletes an unread short message stored in the terminal storage, a backup unread short message, which stored in the subscriber identity card, corresponding to the new short message. The method and the device of the present invention can synchronize the unread short message in the terminal storage and the subscriber identity card, so that the user will not lose the unread short message even when changing the mobile communication terminal.
Claims17
A method for backing up an unread short message, comprising:
- storing a new short message received by a mobile communication terminal in a terminal storage and backing up the new short message to a subscriber identity card;
- and
- when a user reads or deletes an unread short message stored in the terminal storage, deleting a backup unread short message, which is stored in the subscriber identity card, corresponding to the new short message.
A device for backing up an unread short message, comprising:
- a backup module, configured to store a new short message received by a mobile communication terminal in a terminal storage and back up the new short message to an subscriber identity card;
- and
- a synchronization module, configured to delete, when a user reads or deletes an unread short message stored in the terminal storage, a backup unread short message, which is stored in the subscriber identity card, corresponding to the new short message.
A mobile communication terminal with a function of backing up an unread short message, comprising:
- a protocol stack, a short message management control module, a user interface, a subscriber identity card and a terminal storage, wherein the short message management control module comprises:
- a backup module, configured to store a new short message received by the mobile communication terminal in the terminal storage and back up the new short message to the subscriber identity card;
- and
- a synchronization module, configured to delete, when a user reads or deletes an unread short message stored in the terminal storage, a backup unread short message stored in the subscriber identity card corresponding to the new short message.
A mobile communication terminal with a function of backing up an unread short message, comprising:
- a protocol stack, a short message management control module, a user interface, a subscriber identity card and a terminal storage, wherein the short message management control module comprises:
- an initialization synchronization module, configured to periodically perform initialization synchronization on an unread short message in the terminal storage and in the subscriber identity card when the mobile communication terminal is powered on or powered off or when the mobile communication terminal is in an idle or standby mode;
- an index relationship establishment module, configured to establish a corresponding table of an index relationship between a storage index of a short message in the terminal storage and a backup index of a short message in the subscriber identity card;
- a backup module, configured to store a new short message received by the mobile communication terminal in the terminal storage and back up the new short message to the subscriber identity card, and meanwhile establish a new item in the corresponding table of the index relationship;
- and
- a synchronization module, configured to delete, when a user reads or deletes an unread short message stored in the terminal storage, a backup unread short message stored in the subscriber identity card corresponding to the new short message according to the corresponding table of the index relationship.
