A method for performing a data session via a Wi-Fi access of a user equipment (UE) in a cellular network is provided. The method includes maintaining a look-up table including at least an entry, the entry including a Wi-Fi identifier of a Wi-Fi access point (AP) and location information of the Wi-Fi AP, determining whether a user preference for a Wi-Fi connection is set to ON or OFF, checking whether at least one matched entry of the look-up table is found based on current location information of the UE, scanning to discover the Wi-Fi AP, connecting to a Wi-Fi AP corresponding to the matched entry based on a result of the determining, and performing a data session via a Wi-Fi access to the connected Wi-Fi AP.

A radiographic image capturing system includes: a radiographic image capturing apparatus which wirelessly transfers a signal value read from each of a plurality of radiation detecting elements; a channel switch controlling device capable of switching a channel used for wirelessly transferring the signal value from the radiographic image capturing apparatus to another channel; a notifying device which gives a notice to an operator who operates the radiographic image capturing system; and a display device which displays a radiographic image generated based on the signal value transferred from the radiographic image capturing apparatus, wherein the notifying device notifies an operator of the fact that the channel is being switched, at least once, while the radiographic image capturing apparatus is switching the channel.

A network-adaptive function control method is provided for a dual-mode mobile terminal. The network-adaptive function control method for a dual-mode mobile terminal supports communication via first and second-type networks includes registering at least one function as a network-adaptive; determining, when a function is requested to be activated, whether the requested function is the network-adaptive function. If it is determined that the requested function is the network-adaptive function, it if determined whether the mobile terminal is in the first-type network; and activating, if the mobile terminal is in the first-type network, the requested function in association with the first-type network. The network-adaptive function control method of the present invention allows registering portable IP network-friendly functions that are served only in a portable IP network domain but not in the cellular network domain, thereby restricting handover to the costly cellular network, resulting in reduction of communication cost.

The electronic devices described herein enhance a user experience associated with a network connection by transitioning between networks and/or network media. Determinations to switch from one network to another are based on connection quality factors which are collected and compared to defined connection quality thresholds. The connection quality factors are correlated to the quality of the connection, such that the quality of the connection is optimized by switching networks when the connection to one network is poor but the connection to an alternative network may be better. Further, the switching process between networks and/or network media, particularly between 802.11 ad networks and other 802.11 networks, is enhanced such that it is substantially seamless, or unnoticeable to the user. The connection quality-based switching determination and the seamless switching between networks provide a consistent, high quality connection and a satisfying user experience.

A radiographic image capturing system includes: a radiographic image capturing apparatus which wirelessly transfers a signal value read from each of a plurality of radiation detecting elements; a channel switch controlling device capable of switching a channel used for wirelessly transferring the signal value from the radiographic image capturing apparatus to another channel; a notifying device which gives a notice to an operator who operates the radiographic image capturing system; and a display device which displays a radiographic image generated based on the signal value transferred from the radiographic image capturing apparatus, wherein the notifying device notifies an operator of the fact that the channel is being switched, at least once, while the radiographic image capturing apparatus is switching the channel.

Various user interfaces and other technologies for seamlessly transitioning between calls of different types can be implemented. The technologies can be implemented to give the impression of a single call that is upgraded from one call type to another. A new application can register so that an appropriate user interface control appears for activation when seamless call transition is possible. Transitioning for third party applications can thus be supported. Cross-platform implementations can be supported.

Disclosed is an apparatus, system, and method for a wireless device to select a network. The wireless device receives a request from a user to access a network site. The wireless device then selects a network based upon a predefined weighted criteria setting that was previously selected by the user.

This application provides a communication method and an apparatus. The method includes: accessing, by an electronic device, a first network; performing network probing on the first network, where it is detected that the Internet cannot be accessed through the first network; and transmitting, in the first network and a second network, to-be-transmitted data through a network that matches the to-be-transmitted data, where the first network is different from the second network, and the electronic device can access the second network and maintain a connection to the first network. The Internet can be accessed through the second network. Even if the Internet cannot be accessed through the first network, the electronic device can still access the Internet through the second network, and is not disconnected from the first network, maintaining the capability of the first network to transmit data.

A method and an electronic device for operator network switching are provided and relate to the field of terminal technologies. A currently activated profile in an electronic device is a first profile. Specifically, the method includes: accessing, by the electronic device, a first operator network based on the first profile; detecting a second operation after disconnecting a connection to the first operator network in response to a first operation; searching for a network based on stored profiles in response to the second operation, to obtain network search results corresponding to the stored profiles; activating a second profile based on the network search results corresponding to the stored profiles; and accessing a second operator network based on the second profile. In this way, operator network switching is implemented.
