The invention generally relates to systems and methods that enable processor readable instruction(s) (e.g., an un-wired algorithm, an un-wired application, an un-wired services, etc.), stored in processor readable media(s), to be accessed and/or processed on mobile electronic devices (e.g., mobile phones) and/or networks such that, for example, when activated by user(s) and/or authorized parties, the mobile electronic device's alert (e.g., audiovisual alert, vibrator, etc.) can be deactivated. Further, when the un-wired application is activated customizable replies can automatically and/or substantially automatically be communicated in response to missed communication attempts (e.g., voice calls, video calls, texts, e-mail, etc.).

A computer-implemented method for management of voicemail messages, performed at a portable electronic device with a touch screen display, includes: displaying a list of voicemail messages; detecting selection by a user of a respective voicemail message in the list; responding to the user selection of the respective voicemail message by initiating playback of the user-selected voicemail message; displaying a progress bar for the user-selected voicemail message, wherein the progress bar indicates the portion of the user-selected voicemail message that has been played; detecting movement of a finger of the user from a first position on the progress bar to a second position on the progress bar; and responding to the detection of the finger movement by restarting playback of the user-selected voicemail message at a position within the user-selected voicemail message corresponding substantially to the second position on the progress bar.

Each user of a telecommunications system may speak and record their own name, in their own voice, and a recording of their spoken name may subsequently be accessed by or delivered to other users of the system, thereby facilitating communication between users by enabling users to better know how to pronounce the names of other users. A user may listen to the recorded spoken name of another user before placing a call to another user. When a user joins a conference call, their spoken name may be announced to other users (attendees) already in the call. A user joining a conference call may listen to the recorded spoken names of attendees in the call. A button on users' phones may invoke these features.

A mobile device having phoning capabilities also include capabilities to optionally reduce an operating load on a centralized mobile carrier voicemail system. The user of the mobile device is presented with a notification of an incoming call and is provided with an opportunity to answer the call in a traditional fashion, to optionally engage the centralized mobile carrier voicemail system, or to instead have the mobile device manage options relating to locally obtaining a voicemail from a maker of the incoming call. When the mobile device manages obtaining a voicemail from the maker of the incoming call, the voicemail is originally obtained and is stored locally, without use of centralized carrier resources at the time of recording the voicemail, and the mobile device can also play the recorded voicemail at any time without use of the centralized carrier resources.

A radio device comprising: a transmitter that transmits a transmission voice; a receiver that receives a reception voice; a recorder that records the reception voice; a playback controller that performs rewind playback of a reception voice recorded in the recorder during the reception voice being received; and a transmit-receive controller that causes the transmitter to transmit the under playback signal to notify that it is during the rewind playback when it is detected that reception of the reception voice is completed during the rewind playback, and that causes the transmitter to transmit a playback end signal indicating that the rewind playback is finished when the rewind playback is finished.

The Mobile Answering Device (MAD), is a mobile communication system comprising of an electronic device or circuit, software, App, platform, network, computer, or server that attaches to or is installed within, or links to a smart phone, tablet, or laptop. The MAD enables a mobile communication device such as, a smart phone, cell phone, tablet, or laptop to answer an incoming mobile phone call by way of a pre-recorded message. After the message has played, the caller can leave a brief or detailed voice message. During the time that the caller is leaving his or her messages, the user of the mobile communication device can hear the caller's message without the caller's knowledge; thus, enabling the user to pre-screen or monitor his or her mobile phone calls before answering the mobile phone call. Further, the MAD enables a user to send and receive Audio-Video electronic mail (AVEmail).

A voice call translation capability negotiation method and an electronic device are provided, and relate to the field of terminal technologies. The method includes: After a first electronic device establishes a communication link with a second electronic device, if a voice call translation function is enabled, the first electronic device receives first indication information sent by the second electronic device. The first indication information is used to indicate that a voice call translation function of the second electronic device is enabled. The first electronic device automatically disables the voice call translation function.

The present invention is related to methods and systems for collected item information for stored items. In one embodiment, a networked food storage system comprises a first sensor configured to read information from item tags coupled to items, wherein the items are stored or intended to be stored in a storage unit. A data store is configured to store food preferences for at least a first user. Instructions, stored in computer readable memory, are configured to: cause a first user interface to be displayed to the first user via which the first user can request a meal suggestion; retrieve preference information for the first user from computer readable memory; retrieve information read from at least a first item tag; and provide a meal suggestion based at least in part on preference information for the first user and item tag information.
