Methods, systems, and apparatus include computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium, including a method for providing information. A request is received by a call routing server to establish a call between a client device and a remote telecommunications device. A given transmission criterion that triggered distribution of the particular digital component to the client device is determined by a call context server. A set of contextual information that is mapped to the given transmission criterion is identified, by the call context server, in a data store storing a mapping of transmission criteria to contextual information. The client device is connected, by the call routing server, to the remote telecommunications device using the phone number. The set of contextual information is transmitted to the remote telecommunications device or a computing device that is associated with the remote telecommunications device while the call is being connected or in progress.

A technique for obtaining caller-originated alert signals in IP-based communication sessions is disclosed. According to one embodiment, the technique may be realized as a method comprising the steps of: receiving, from a first user equipment and via a first communication channel, a request to initiate a communication session, the request being received at a second user equipment; in response to the request, causing a phonepage server to transmit, via a second communication channel, a caller-originated alert to the second user equipment; and rendering the caller-originated alert to alert a user associated with the second user equipment.

Alerts are processed based on social networks. A person's contact information, as an example, may be associated with a social network. Each different social network may also have its own custom ringtone or other alert. Calls, texts, and other electronic messages may thus processed with the alert of the social network.

A method for playing a multimedia customized ringing signal and customized alerting tone includes: receiving, by an application server, an initial call request from a calling terminal, and sending the initial call request to a called terminal; receiving a provisional response to the initial call request from the called terminal; determining customized ring signal media resource information based on the provisional response; sending a first media session update message that carries the customized ring signal media resource information to the called terminal; receiving a first response from the called terminal; and playing the multimedia customized ringing signal based on the first response, where the initial call request includes SDP information of the calling terminal, and the first response includes a result of customized ringing signal media resource negotiation between the application server and the called terminal.

A call processing method, a call processing apparatus, an electronic device, and a medium, are provided. The method includes: receiving a first call request sent by a second call processing apparatus; establishing a call connection with the second call processing apparatus according to the first call request; detecting a first ringing message corresponding to the first call request in a case that the call connection is terminated; and outputting missed-call reminder information according to the first call request in a case that the first ringing message is not detected.
