Industrial design
Sony Ericsson P1 is a thin and sleek UMTS smartphone, with a highly contemporary look. The slim form factor makes the phone easy to carry, hold and use. The main focus in Sony Ericsson P1 is efficient communication and messaging, with the most versatile ways of entering text.
The large bright touchscreen (2.6" QVGA TFT, 262 k colours), the on-screen keyboard, handwriting recognition and the dual function keyboard support easy and versatile messaging. Auto correction, word completion and keyboard illumination all improve the texting and dialling functionality of the phone.
To navigate menus and select items there is a Jog Dial and a Back button close to each other on the side of the phone. A long press on the Back button in Standby view locks the keyboard.
Alternatively the user can use a fingertip or the included stylus to navigate menus and select items.
For Internet access there is a button on the side of the phone, which directly opens the Browser of the phone.
With the integrated 3.2 megapixel camera at the back of the phone, the user can take pictures and video clips and store them in the phone memory or on a memory card. The megapixel quality gives excellent results when images are printed or viewed on a computer or TV.
When using the camera the viewfinder is displayed in landscape orientation. The camera has a photo light which acts as a flash.

Technologies in detail
This chapter offers a detailed description of the technologies available in this product.

Phone applications
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
The following call features have been included in Sony Ericsson P1:
• Ongoing call menu: Sony Ericsson P1 has a dynamic ongoing call menu that changes to help the user perform actions quickly and sim­ply.
• Accept calls: users can specify which calls to accept and which calls to reject.
• Rich call functionality: Sony Ericsson P1 allows SMS and MMS messages, as well as contact cards to be easily sent during a call.
Video call
With the speed of UMTS and video call functionality, the Sony Ericsson P1 can be used to share news face-to-face with your business colleagues, family or friends. During a video call, the stream can be switched from the front VGA camera to the back megapixel camera. Use the megapixel camera to share images, such as scenery, with the video call recipient.
One of the camera feeds can be swapped to show a stored picture, allowing the callers reaction to be seen.
• Call notes: Sony Ericsson P1 can launch Notes during a call. The note is automatically named with the other party’s number, name (if known), time of call and date. The user can start writing in the note immediately.
• Follow up call: Sony Ericsson P1 can automati­cally create follow up call tasks. The task con­tains the phone number, contact name, time of call, and date of call.
• Speakerphone.
The camera can be set up to automatically switch on when you receive a call.
The VGA camera is mounted in portrait mode. Landscape video call images are produced from the portrait image feed by clipping the top and bottom of the portrait image. This affects the resolution of the VGA camera and causes a zooming effect.
In video call mode there is no support for Bluetooth headsets.
Business telephony
Corporations have traditionally used fixed-line and DECT phones in the office, but now there is a strong trend towards the use of mobile phones to access business telephony features. Of prime importance, however, is that users can still access the features and functionality of their corporate communication system, no matter which phone they are using. Sony Ericsson P1 can interact with the following corporate systems:
• A Corporate switch PABX, (Private Automatic Branch Exchange), equipped with a mobile extension port, (like the Ericsson MD110 and BusinessPhone).
• A mobile centrex service, if provided by the operator.
• A telephony server located at the operator’s or customer’s premises.
Feature buttons
The user activates corporate features by selecting commands from a list, which can be dynamically sent by the server via an IP link, or pre-configured by the company’s IT manage, the operator or a service provider. Each command displays a text description of the function.
17 May 2007
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
When a command is selected, pre-configured DTMF tones are used to communicate the desired function to the server. The phone can even be used to send data that the user is prompted to provide, such as the date they will be back from a business trip. Feature commands and text descriptions have to be programmed using XML and then imported into the phone.
Ongoing call features are reached from the active call view.
Offline commands and corporate telephony settings can be accessed by pressing the ‘corporate telephony’ icon once a calling card has been set up. Activating a command will result in an IP packet being sent to the server.
Routing of corporate calls
If a company uses a PABX, calls must be routed via the PABX to gain access to corporate features and resources. Sony Ericsson P1 can route outgoing calls to the corporate switch, instead of to the dialled B-party. To complete a call, the B-number is then sent to the mobile extension port of the PABX and the call set-up is completed. This process is completely transparent to the user.
A user may dial either an internal number, such as, 1234, or a public number, like +468 123 4567. Sony Ericsson P1 can be set to bypass the switch for certain types of calls.
Configuring the phone for the company
The person responsible for the corporate communication services defines how the phone shall be configured. This person may be the company's IT manager, the operator or a service provider. They define what feature commands shall be displayed in the phone, how these commands interact with the PABX and what text is displayed. They also define how Sony Ericsson P1 should handle calls to and from the corporate switch. This is all done in an XML-structured configuration file, with the extension .pbx. Once created, this configuration file can be easily installed onto Sony Ericsson P1.
To ensure that only authorized personnel have access to the PABX, approved mobile phone numbers are added to the list of mobile extensions in the PBX, and only these numbers will be able to use the facilities available.

and
PIM applications
The 160 MB storage space designed for user data is where the PIM applications data is stored. As this is a dynamic memory it is impossible to state which number of contacts, email messages, and so on that can be stored in this part of the memory. For example, fewer email messages make room for more contacts.
From the perspective of synchronization performance, however, there are requirements (which the phone meets). See “Synchronization capacity” on page 44 for more information.
18 May 2007
Contacts
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
The Contacts application in Sony Ericsson P1 holds the details of all the user's contacts. It is fully integrated with the phone and other PIM applications. Each contact can contain multiple phone numbers and email addresses, names, addresses, birthday details, anniversary details, personal notes and a picture or photograph. Most of this information will typically be transferred to Sony Ericsson P1 when it is synchronized with a computer application such as Microsoft® Outlook® or Lotus Notes®. Contact data can also be added and edited on Sony Ericsson P1. Local and remote synchronization is possible using the SyncML standard. See “Synchronization and data transfer” on page 42 for more information.
Data can also be beamed to and from Sony Ericsson P1 using infrared and Bluetooth™ connectivity. It can also be sent and received using Messages. See “Object exchange – 'Send as'” on page 45 for more information.
Contacts are displayed in a list, which may be filtered by folder such as business or personal. To see a contact’s details, select the contact. Tap the icons alongside the contacts details to launch a phone call, a new message or a URL in the browser.
Calls received from new numbers can automatically cause the user to be prompted to save the number.
Contact details can be added to a distribution list. Distribution lists can be used to send the same email, SMS, EMS or MMS message to groups of contacts.
Calendar
The Calendar application keeps track of appointments and events and enables reminder alarms to be set. The calendar view has been enhanced to display the selected day’s events on the screen.
Calendar entries are displayed in local time, but all appointments and reminders are saved in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). If the user moves to a different time zone the calendar updates the

appointments and reminders automatically. Meeting invitations can be received by email and added to the Calendar.
The alarm signal can be personalized using sound clips. Appointments can be shared using infrared, Bluetooth™ connectivity, and also by Messages. Local and remote synchronisation are both supported using SyncML. See “Synchronization and data transfer” on page 42 for more information. The Chinese models support the lunar calendar.
19 May 2007
Notes
Notes provides a quick means of making notes in either text or sketch format. Notes can be launched during a call. The note is automatically named with the other party’s number, name (if known), time of call and date.
Time and alarm clock

For the alarm to work, the phone must be switched on. If the alarm is used to wake the user up, Flight mode is recommended.
• Rename recordings
• Save recordings to the phone or a memory card
• Delete recordings
The music recognition function, TrackID™, is available from Sound recorder. See “Music recognition – TrackID™” on page 33 for more information.
Calculator
The Calculator has the features of a standard desk calculator, and is always available from the application launcher.
Timer
The Timer application can be used to remind the user within a certain amount of time. The application is hidden until the time has passed. A message is displayed and a sound is played
exactly when the time has passed.

Messaging
Email
Sony Ericsson P1 supports the following standards:
POP3 POP is used to retrieve and delete messages from an incoming mail server in the
network.
IMAP4 IMAP is also used to copy, retrieve, move and delete messages from an incoming mail
server. IMAP has more features than POP, such as remote folders. IMAP4 also offers support for the IDLE command, which if supported by the server, offers push capabilities.
SMTP SMTP is used to send messages from a mail client to a mail server.
MIME MIME is a format that describes data, such as, defining the attachments included in
email.
21 May 2007
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
Most of the standards above are supported by Internet Service Providers and many corporate environments. Sony Ericsson P1 is supplied with Internet and email wizards which help users easily configure an email account. OTA (Over The Air) configuration of email and ISP accounts is supported.
Sony Ericsson P1 supports SSL and TLS encryption.
Automatic polling can be used so that email is automatically collected and presented in the Inbox. Controls are provided to filter messages based on size, enabling cost and download time to be managed.
Another option enables only email headers to be presented in the inbox. Headers are quick to download. The user may read and select headers and request the message to be downloaded if necessary.
If IMAP4 is used you can enable the IDLE command to keep connected to the email server. This allows the server to push new messages directly to the Sony Ericsson P1 as they arrive.

Attachments may be viewed using the preinstalled viewers for Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint and Adobe™ Acrobat™ Reader™ (PDF). See “Quickoffice™” on page 24 for more information.
A signature may be set up so that essential details are automatically copied to the end of each outgoing email.
The supplied Sony Ericsson PC Suite enables email to be synchronized with Microsoft Outlook and Lotus Notes®. During synchronization, new email from the computer is transferred in to the corresponding 'synchronized email account' inbox on Sony Ericsson P1. Messages and replies written using this account on Sony Ericsson P1 are transferred and sent via the computer.
Web based email can, of course, be accessed using the Sony Ericsson P1 browser.
Email transmission is performed in the background, making it possible to perform other messaging functions during transmission.
A list of recently used addresses are available when creating a message. Sony Ericsson P1 allows distribution lists to be created and sender ID information is sent with message alerts.
Sony Ericsson P1 can send any type of attachment, including the following:
• Pictures
• Video clips
• Audio files
Push email
Push email is a method of 'pushing' or forwarding email to mobile devices as soon as a message reaches the email server. These solutions may also include calendar and contacts synchronization.
Email folders
Messaging accounts have the following folders: Inbox, Outbox, SIM, Draft and Sent. Additional folders may be created, see “Local folders” on page 22 for more information.
Local folders
To improve the organization of your folders you can create more folders locally on Sony Ericsson P1. Local folders are only visible in the Messaging application. Local folders cannot be created on a Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™).
Push email solutions allow email messages to be delivered in the background in the same way as SMS or MMS messages.
22 May 2007
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
Sony Ericsson P1 is prepared for these solutions with Exchange ActiveSync pre-installed. A rich set of other third party applications are available, for example, OneBridge, Intellisync, BlackBerry, Seven Duality, and Visto Mobile.
Push methods
The various solutions use different methods to push messages, usually IP push, by listening to dedicated ports when a session is active. This is similar to instant messaging solutions. Some solutions may also use SMS messages with triggers to the application to start a sync/ download, sometimes referred to as pseudo-push.
Security
All solutions use end-to-end security using SSL, 3DES or AES encryption. Most solutions are based on the use of a fixed password for push email. Initially key exchange is also done by using device parameters such as the IMEI number. A few solutions combine push with one-time passwords that are limited for a certain amount of time before being re-entered. Many solutions have functionality
for enforcing screen passwords. There is also sometimes theft and loss protection through wipe­out commands and lock-out.
Exchange ActiveSync™
The push email application Exchange ActiveSync™ is normally pre-installed in the phone and ready for setup.
With Exchange ActiveSync™ corporate email, calendar items and contacts on a Microsoft™ Exchange Server 2003 or 2007 can be wirelessly synchronized with the corresponding information in the phone. When on the move, the user can easily, for example, look up details in the company global address book or accept a request for a meeting.
All changes in the phone are automatically synchronized with the user’s Exchange Server data. Similarly, all changes to the Exchange Server data are transferred to the phone. With the Direct Push feature activated, synchronization is immediate. If the user, for example, receives a new email in Outlook™ (or a similar client) it is instantly copied to the phone.
Unified mailbox

Media formats
Audio formats
Format Description
AAC-LC Advanced Audio Coding. AAC is the latest audio coding standard, defined in the
MPEG-2 standard and used for high-quality audio compression. AAC provides higher quality than MP3 at the same bit rate, or for the same audio quality it uses a 30 per cent lower bit rate. It supports the coding of multichannel audio, with up to 48 main channels and 16 low-frequency channels. The AAC offers three different profiles to facilitate trade off between quality, memory and processing power requirements. They include: Main Profile (MP), Low Complexity (LC) and Scalable Sampling Rate (SSR). The Media player can play AAC-LC format audio which is encoded into an MPEG-4 file or stream. The Sound recorder uses the AAC-LC format for recording. AAC-LC includes High Efficiency AAC+.
AMR-NB Adaptive Multi Rate. AMR-NB is a speech compression format that is highly optimized
for the mobile environment, requiring as little as 4.75 Kbps bandwidth. AMR-NB is used to convey voice recordings in MMS, 3GPP video clips or streams. Sony Ericsson P1 records AMR using 12.2 Kbps with a sample rate of 8 kHz.

White paper Sony Ericsson P1
AU Similar to WAV, this is an audio format commonly used in the Macintosh, Unix and
Java™ worlds. It is not commonly used for content on mobile devices.
iMelody A format commonly used for monophonic ringtones. (Sony Ericsson P1 ringtones can
use up to 40 voices.)
MIDI Musical Instrument Digital Interface. MIDI is not a recording of music, but a description
which enables a local synthesizer to play the music from the instructions included in the MIDI file. Since a MIDI file only represents player information, it is far more concise than formats that store the sound directly. An advantage is very small file sizes. A disadvantage is the lack of specific sound control. MIDI is ideal for polyphonic ringtones. (Sony Ericsson P1 ringtones can use up to 40 voices.)
SP-MIDI SP-MIDI stands for Scalable Polyphony MIDI. SP-MIDI is based on the MIDI format and
adapted for mobile phones and other portable products. The objective is to secure interoperability between products with different sound capabilities.
Initial recommendations for using SP-MIDI in 3GPP™ applications are discussed in a separate document, “Scalable Polyphony MIDI Device 5-24 Note Profile for 3GPP™”.
MP3 MP3 is the file extension for MPEG audio layer 3. Layer 3 is one of three coding
schemes (layer 1, layer 2 and layer 3) for the compression of audio signals. Layer 3 uses a very efficient compression method, removing all irrelevant parts of a sound signal that the human ear cannot perceive. The result is, CD digital audio (CDDA) is converted to MP3 with almost untouched quality, compressed by a factor of around
12. The high compression of audio in MP3 files makes them relatively small, though MP3 files can be created with different size and quality compromises. The small file size, together with the excellent sound quality, are the main reasons for the MP3­format’s massive popularity when sharing music over the Internet.
RMF Rich Music Format™. A file format developed by Beatnik combining the compact size
of MIDI files with the high quality of sampled sound.
WAV A wave file is identified by a file name extension of WAV (.wav). Used primarily in PCs,
the wave file format has been accepted as a viable interchange medium for other computer platforms, such as Macintosh. This allows content developers to freely move audio files between platforms for processing. In addition to the uncompressed raw audio data, the wave file format stores information about the file's number of tracks (mono or stereo), sample rate, and bit depth.
WMA Windows Media Audio (WMA) is a proprietary compressed audio file format developed
by Microsoft. It was initially intended to be a competitor to the popular MP3 format, but has not yet received such popularity.
XMF Xtended Music Format. XMF is a technology for collecting other music and sound
resources, such as Standard MIDI Files, DLS instrument files, WAV or other digital audio files. XMF does not describe musical notes, notations, instrument sounds or audio recordings. Instead, it offers content creators a method to collect all those elements and put them in a single file. In the end, this means easier handling and more consistent predictable playback.
30 May 2007
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
DLS The DLS file format is used to store both the digital sound data and articulation
parameters needed to create one or more 'instruments.' An instrument contains 'regions' which point to WAVE 'files' (samples) also embedded in the DLS file. Each region specifies a MIDI note and velocity range which will trigger the corresponding sound and also contains articulation information such as envelopes and loop points. Articulation information can be specified for each individual region or for the entire instrument.”
Real Audio 9 RealAudio is a proprietary encoding format from RealNetworks. It also supports
repositioning during real-time playback.
eAAC+ (eAAC+, AAC+ V2)
AAC+ (HE AAC, AAC+)
eAAC+ is AAC+ with the addition of Parametric Stereo (PS). PS significantly increases the codec efficiency for low bit rate stereo signals.
‘High-efficiency AAC’ is the official MPEG name for the combination of AAC and Spectral Band Replication (SBR). SBR is a bandwidth extension technique enabling audio codecs to deliver the same quality at half the bit rate.

It is used to store media types defined by the ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group, and can be used to store other media types as well. It is, typically used to store data in files, though it will be used in data streams and possibly in other ways. The .mp4 allows multiplexing of multiple video and audio streams in one file, variable frame- and bit-rates, subtitles and still images. It also allows streaming over the Internet.
File formats which are used in mobile phones to store media (audio/video). This file format is a simpler version of "ISO 14496-1 Media Format”. This format can only carry video encoded as MPEG-4, H.263, or H.264. Audio is stored in AAC­LC or AMR-NB formats.

Browser security
Sony Ericsson P1 supports the TLS/SSL to provide a secure encrypted link between the browser and the Web site. This method is commonly used for secure transactions on the Web. An icon in the display indicates when a secure connection is in use.
TLS security
When using certain Internet services such as banking, the user may require a secure connection between the phone and the Web site. Sony Ericsson P1 is based on the WAP 2.0 specifications where security functionality is specified with a technology called WAP TLS Profile (Wireless Application Protocol Transport Layer Security).
34 May 2007
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
The Internet protocols that handle the connection, its transport and its security are structured in protocol layers. The security is handled by the TLS layer operating above the transport protocol layer. There are three TLS classes that define the levels of security for a TLS connection:
• Anonymous TLS involves encryption with no authentication.
• Server authentication involves encryption with server authentication.

Requires a client certificate stored at the client side and a trusted certificate stored at the server side.
Certificates
To use secure connections, the user needs to have certificates saved in the phone. Certificates can be downloaded and installed when required. There are two types of certificates:
Certificate authority
User certificate
A trusted certificate used to verify that a Web site is genuine. If the phone has a stored trusted certificate of a certain type, it means the user can trust all Web sites which present a certificate that can be verified by the trusted certificate. Certificates are preinstalled in the phone and can be downloaded from the trusted supplier's Web page.
A personal certificate that verifies the user's identity. A bank that the user has a contract with may issue this kind of certificate.
RSS feeds
RSS provides a way for Web sites to distribute their content outside of a Web browser. A news Web site might have an RSS feed which contains breaking stories, while a magazine Web site may provide an RSS feed with excerpts of their latest articles.
An RSS feed is a file containing a list of news items, each of which has a title, a description and a URL link for more information on the content provider's Web site.
With the RSS Feeds application the user gets information from the Internet into an easy-to-view format without browsing the Web sites. The user can browse information from dozens – or hundreds – of Web sites without ever visiting them.
Sony Ericsson P1 comes preinstalled with X.509 certificates from Baltimore, Entrust, Geotrust, GlobalSign, GTE Cybertrust, RSA, Sony Ericsson, Thawte and VeriSign.
RSS Feeds includes the following features:
•Subscription.
• Update feeds manually or via a predefined schedule.
• Organize feeds into folders.
• Read news items.
• Send a news item to another device via an infra­red, WLAN, USB or Bluetooth connection, or via email.
• Link to more information via the Web browser.

Connectivity
WLAN
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
Wireless LAN, WLAN, is a network access technology becoming increasingly common around the world. It allows users with portable computers and wireless devices to access network resources wirelessly, at the office, in the home, or in public spaces (public Access Zones or so-called “hot spots”), such as cafés, airports, aeroplanes and hotels.
Sony Ericsson P1 WLAN may be used as an alternative to any other type of network connection, such as, a GSM, UMTS, infrared or Bluetooth™ connection, and it may be chosen as the preferred connection method for any of the Sony Ericsson P1 data applications.
The WLAN functionality is compliant with the IEEE
802.11b standard (11 Mbit/s), and will work simultaneously with Sony Ericsson P1 GSM, UMTS, infrared or Bluetooth connection interfaces.
The WLAN functionality can be switched on or off as required, including when the Sony Ericsson P1 is placed into Flight mode.
The Sony Ericsson P1 allows the user to rapidly make a connection to a public hot spot. A WLAN icon is available on the Sony Ericsson P1 s tatu s bar and this icon may be used to open the WLAN set­up screen. The user may then use the WLAN and scan for available networks. A connection to a
chosen hot spot may then be made without the need for entering any technical details about the network.
The phone also uses a feature called “Fast connect” to allow the user to simply enter the encryption key or password when trying to make a connection to an unknown access point that uses WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK or WEP encryption.
It is possible to use WLAN in conjunction with a personal firewall and virus scanner.
For connection to a private network in the office or at home, Sony Ericsson P1 supports the following encryption/authentication methods:
•WEP
•Shared WEP
• Dynamic WEP
• WPA Personal and WPA2 Personal
tm^=bенЙкйкблЙ=~еЗ=tm^O=bенЙкйкблЙ
Setting up more complex settings for infrastructure and ad-hoc modes is simplified by the use of a wizard that presents relevant options after each selection is made. For example, a WEP key selection screen follows the selection of shared encryption.
Virtual private networks software is supplied for use with WLAN in Infrastructure network mode.
Voice over IP, VoIP
Sony Ericsson P1 comes with enablers for creating a Voice over IP (VoIP) client. This makes it possible to use the phone as a complement to, or even as a replacement for, a fixed phone at home. A Sony Ericsson partner may develop, market and deliver VoIP clients using the audio and network enablers
provided in Sony Ericsson P1. Near-realtime PCM Record & Play, echo cancellation, and access to audio paths are a few examples of enablers.
36 May 2007
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
The Sony Ericsson WLAN implementation makes it possible for a VoIP client to use wideband codecs, WLAN Powersave for increased standby times, and WMM for requesting a high Quality of Service (QoS) level.
If the WLAN signal strength is decreased, the VoIP client has the opportunity to initiate a Circuit Switched call in order to maintain an ongoing call.

Compatibility with other Memory Stick™ devices
Sony Ericsson P1 defines its own folder structure on a Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™), within a vendor-specific area and this is the only area that can be accessed by all of Sony Ericsson P1 applications, except for the File manager. The File manager may be used to move files between the Sony Ericsson P1's MMFH (Multimedia File Handling) system and folders placed on a Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™) by other devices, thus allowing files to be shared between Sony Ericsson P1 and other devices.
Connection to computer
A Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™) may be inserted into a computer or camera with Memory Stick™ support, using a Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™) adaptor.
Bluetooth™ wireless technology
Sony Ericsson P1 features built-in Bluetooth™ 2.0 wireless technology. Its Bluetooth power class 2, +4 dBm radio link, operates in the globally available
2.4 GHz radio frequency band, ensuring fast and
secure communications up to a range of 10 metres, or more in ideal conditions. Please note that in the few countries where the use of Bluetooth wireless technology is not allowed, the Bluetooth function will be disabled. In countries where only lower output than 4 dBm or 0 dBm is allowed, the output is limited as a customized factory setting.
Bluetooth wireless technology facilitates instant connections, which are maintained even when the devices are not in the line of sight. Enhanced audio quality voice transmission is provided under adverse conditions, making it possible to use a headset connection at all times.

from the phone and transfer files from the computer to the phone using the normal drag and drop mechanisms provided by the computer.
File browsing
By using the client role of the File Transfer Profile, the phone enables the user to access file systems of other devices, that support the server role of the same profile. After pairing the phone with the other device, the user can connect to the other device by selecting it in the list of My devices under the Bluetooth menu and selecting the Browse option that should be available on the left selection key. If the browse option does not appear the user can select the Service option to update the phone’s knowledge that file browsing is possible with this device. When the phone is connected to the file server, the user can browse the shared folders and retrieve files listed in the folders. The user can transfer files to the file server device using the normal Send/via Bluetooth option.
Media viewing
The phone can send images and sounds to a media viewer device, such as, the MMW-100 TV adaptor accessory. The user can also conveniently run a slide show on the TV showing a set of nice phone camera pictures for family and friends. The phone can connect to a Bluetooth device that can receive images, the image can be transferred to the remote screen and displayed.
File sharing
By using the server role of the File Transfer Profile, the phone enables the user to use a computer to manage content files that reside in the phone’s file system or on a Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™). Most computer Bluetooth applications provide an explorer like user interface for the file transfer service. When connecting to the phone, the computer application will show one folder for the content in the phone’s file system and another folder for the content on the Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™). The content in the Games and more folder is not exposed in the file transfer server. Opening one of the folders will show a list of files related to that folder, such as, images in the Pictures folder. Using the computer application the user can now: retrieve files from phone to computer, delete files

Remote control
The phone keypad is configured for control of a certain computer application through a special type of HID configuration file consisting of an XML file for the keypad and an image for the display. HID configuration files can be downloaded into the phone using the normal file transfer mechanisms.
Users can even modify the files themselves on their computers. A few configuration files pre-loaded in the phone enable the user to navigate on a computer desktop and control presentations and Media players.
System functions
Characteristics
The HID configuration files, and the set of predefined HID configuration files, are customizable. The configuration files can be modified by the user if transferred to, and opened on, a computer.
Used enablers and bearers
The HID based remote control function works over a Bluetooth connection. It is possible to download the HID configuration files via an infrared, WLAN, USB or Bluetooth connection. It is also possible to transfer the files to another device using an infrared or Bluetooth connection.
Power save mode
The phone uses sniff mode on headset, handsfree and HID connections which means reduced power consumption and shorter connection set-up times.
IrDA
IrDA (Infrared Data Association) is a point-to-point communication link between two infrared ports. The infrared beam has to be directed towards the target infrared port and as long as the two infrared ports are within sight and range, the devices can exchange data.
USB
Sony Ericsson P1 is USB 2.0 FS (12 Mbps) compliant. The idea of the USB port is to allow easy connection of the phone to a computer.
USB is designed to be completely “Plug and Play”, that is, devices will be correctly detected and configured automatically as soon as they are attached. USB in a mobile phone means convenient data transfer between the phone and a computer.
Object Exchange via infrared (IrObex) supports the transferring of objects between compatible phones. Sony Ericsson P1 can be used to control electrical devices that have an infrared port, such as, a television or DVD player.
Sony Ericsson P1 supports USB charging, which means that the user can have the phone battery charged while USB connected to, for example, a computer. This possibility is very useful if the user travels a lot.

Data storage
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
Sony Ericsson P1 is divided into two parts:
• A GSM phone part, having flash memory. This is very similar to a conventional mobile phone.
^е=DlкЦ~ебтЙкD=й~кн=кмеебеЦ=pугДб~е=lp=~еЗ=
Ь~обеЦ=~=д~кЦЙ=~гзмен=зС=Сд~лЬ=~еЗ=o^j=гЙгJ зку=йдмл=~=jЙгзку=pнбЕв=jбЕкз»=EjO»F=лдзн= ~еЗ=нЬЙ=~Дбдбну=нз=ЙсЕЬ~еЦЙ=СбдЙл=пбнЬ=~=m`K
The RAM (Random Access Memory) is controlled by the Symbian OS operating system and is not used to store any user or program data. The RAM is totally re-initialized when Sony Ericsson P1 is started.
The available 256 MB flash memory is split into approx. 95 MB for operating purposes and up to approx. 160 MB for storage of user data, such as, audio files, pictures, documents, additional languages and settings such as the active theme. Flash memory retains data even with no power applied. Unlike some PDA devices, Sony Ericsson P1 does not require a small 'memory backup'
battery. Data stored on Sony Ericsson P1 is therefore not subject to loss due to such a battery running down.
The first memory bank is used like a ROM. It stores the Symbian (UIQ) operating system, the built-in applications and some essential multimedia information like a default ringtone. It also stores the language files for UK English which is the default language of the Standard Sony Ericsson P1. Chinese models also have Chinese stored on the ROM.
Note: The extensive MMI of Sony Ericsson P1 means that it is impractical to hold many languages inside the phone, as is the case for some other models.
Part of the flash memory provides a 'C:' drive of up to approx. 160 MB capacity. This behaves just like a normal disk drive. The folders can be viewed and managed from the File manager application or from a connected PC.
User storage
The user storage space (C: drive) is shared across applications without any imposed restrictions, apart from the whole space becoming full.
Unlike a PC, the user does not need to be aware of the underlying filing system. Applications will always store information automatically in the appropriate folder, simplifying the management of data. Third party applications may implement more complex file management solutions where required.
Additional storage space is available by using memory cards. Sony Ericsson P1 is delivered with a 512 MB Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™) memory card. Memory cards of up to 4 GB capacity are supported. Any number of memory cards may be used for storage. See “Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™)” on page 37 for more information on how to use memory cards when exchanging data with other devices.
Depending on the application, data can be beamed, mailed, uploaded to the Web, transferred to a PC or moved to a memory card in order to archive and create free user space on Sony Ericsson P1. See “Synchronization and data transfer” on page 42.
User storage configuration in the new Sony Ericsson P1
Applications and information are placed in the internal storage of Sony Ericsson P1 in the factory. This provides sample demonstration, educational, multimedia and fun content so that Sony Ericsson P1 can be used directly out of the box. Much of this can be deleted by the user in order to make the space available for personal use.

Action at master reset
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
Master Reset restores the phone to its purchase state, all user data is deleted. When a Master Reset is initiated the user can select to keep all user­installed applications. Data can be restored as follows:
If the user has previously backed up Sony Ericsson P1 using the Sony Ericsson PC Suite, then the C: drive can be restored to the condition it was in when the backup was made. The exception is DRM Forward Lock protected files which cannot be transferred to other media and therefore not backed up.
Otherwise, data can be re-loaded from the following locations:
• Try and Buy applications on a Memory Stick
pзеу=bкбЕллзе=tЙД=лбнЙK
Since Multimedia content is easily transferable using memory cards, an infrared connection or Bluetooth™ wireless technology, it is simple to restore favourite content from someone else's Sony Ericsson P1 (unless DRM protected).
Folder view of internal storage
This section explains in more detail how the data is organized on the C: drive.
When viewed from a PC using Sony Ericsson PC Suite, the 'C:' drive is named 'Phone Memory', but only a subset of the folders is accessible from the PC.
A folder is created beneath the applicable media type. There is no limit on the number of subfolders that can be created. Unfiled folders are created in the initial folder structure and all material is placed in the unfiled folder by default. Sony Ericsson Multimedia Content is stored in 'Sony Ericsson' subfolders.
Micro™ (M2™).
There is a folder for each media type: audio, video and image. Documents (such as Microsoft Word files) are stored under the 'document' folder. An 'other' folder provides a place for files that do not fit into the other categories.
Synchronization and data transfer
To be truly mobile, users must be able to carry their important information with them. Equipping mobile phones with Personal Information Manager (PIM) programs like calendars, task lists and phonebooks gives users access to their most important data anywhere and anytime. The information is kept updated by synchronizing it with the information at the office or at home. The growing use of groupware such as Microsoft Outlook means that more and more meetings are booked electronically in daily business life.
Sony Ericsson P1 uses the SyncML 1.2 protocol for synchronization. This means that it has the compatibility to synchronize with a wide variety of devices over a number of different communications media.
42 May 2007
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
SyncML – an open standard for synchronization
SyncML background
Leading the way in providing remote synchronization capability, Sony Ericsson realizes that interoperability of remote synchronization is of utmost importance if mobile data use is to become as widespread as generally predicted. That is why Ericsson, along with IBM, Lotus, Motorola, Matsushita, Nokia, Palm Inc., Psion and Starfish Software, founded the SyncML initiative in February 2000. Supported by more than 600 software and hardware developers, the SyncML initiative seeks to develop and promote a globally open standard for remote synchronization, called SyncML. Unlike many other synchronization platforms, SyncML is an open industry specification that offers universal interoperability. Because it uses a common language, called XML, for specifying the messages that synchronize devices and applications, SyncML has been called the only truly future-proof platform for enabling reliable and immediate update of data. The benefit for the end user is that SyncML can be used almost anywhere and in a wide variety of devices, regardless of application or operating system.
Sony Ericsson P1 uses SyncML for both local synchronization (with a PC using Bluetooth™ connectivity or a cable connection) and remote synchronization over HTTP.
What information can be synchronized in Sony Ericsson P1?
Application Remote

Local sync
Remote synchronization
Remote synchronization takes place over the air using HTTP and is the ideal way to keep the Sony Ericsson P1 up to date. 3G enables a fast connection to the network - the synchronization can be started in seconds.
** Note, Email and Bookmarks implementation are proprietary and therefore not SyncML compliant.
Synchronization services will be offered by third­party service providers and as added capability to corporate PIM applications. Corporate PIM applications such as Microsoft® Exchange can be supplemented with SyncML capability.
Server alerted synchronization
If updates are made on the PC the server automatically notifies Sony Ericsson P1. The updates are automatically synchronized to Sony Ericsson P1. A remote server can initiate a synchronization with the Sony Ericsson P1 using WAP Push.
43 May 2007

operator approved software from the Web (www.sonyericsson.com/support) and have the phone updated.
DRM
The Digital Rights Management (DRM) technology enables the secure distribution, promotion, and sale of digital media. Examples of such content include screen savers, themes, ringtones, and branded games (currently restricted to java games/ midlets only). In other words, content providers can control how users may use different types of content in devices, such as, mobile phones, computers or PDAs. Content providers can also control the use of content in related services, such as MMS and download.
Sony Ericsson is actively focusing on technology standardization for the DRM concept, and supports the ongoing standardization work and activities of the Open Mobile Alliance (OMA). Sony Ericsson is fully committed to open standard solutions in the mobile environment and is a principal driver of many open standard initiatives. This will ensure the interoperability of mobile phones in the DRM area and also result in a strong, competitive DRM standard.
The user is guided smoothly through the update process and no user data will be lost.
CD – Combined Delivery
Sony Ericsson P1 supports OMA DRM Combined Delivery/Forward Lock. Content and associated licences are downloaded or delivered to the user as a single DRM packaged file. This means that the content or licence issuer controls to which extent the content can be used. As with pure Forward Lock, the user will be unable to distribute this content for use on another device.
SD – Separate Delivery
Sony Ericsson P1 supports OMA DRM Separate Delivery. Content and associated licences are received as separate DRM packages, either simultaneously or at different points in time. This enables the distribution of content to other users – with the same possibilities to control the use of the content as exist with Combined Delivery/Forward Lock. Distribution of content to other users will require them to obtain licences from the licence issuer.
Sony Ericsson P1 supports the OMA DRM v1 standard.
FWL – Forward Lock
Sony Ericsson P1 supports OMA DRM Forward Lock. It is the simplest OMA use case, with no special licences defined. The content is provided in a single DRM packaged file, thus protecting the content from being distributed by the user. It enables a secure means for the content provider to deliver/provide content which incurs a charge. Forward Lock content will normally be received by Sony Ericsson P1 as part of an MMS message or via HTTP download. Sony Ericsson P1 supports OMA Download. More information is available at www.sonyericsson.com/developer.
Protection properties
Content that is protected according to the OMA DRM standard is given special properties.
Content with Forward Lock protection cannot be further distributed since the “Send to” option is disabled.
All three types of protected content (FWL, CD and SD) packages can be transferred to a Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™) memory card, thereby enabling storage of large amounts of content.
OMA DRM Combined Delivery/Forward Lock protected content on a Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™) cannot be used in another device other than the device it was saved on. Only Separate Delivery packages can be used on another device, after obtaining licences to use the content on the new
47 May 2007
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
device. Thus, a Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™) is one way of distributing Separate Delivery content to several users. Licences to use the content can never be distributed from user to user (phone to phone). Licences always have to be obtained directly from the licence issuer.
Personalization
Sony Ericsson P1 can be personalized by the user in one of the following ways:
• Use of a PC-based utility application.
sб~=lоЙкJнЬЙJ^бк=Elq^F=ЕзеСбЦмк~нбзеI=бебнб~нЙЗ=Ду=
нЬЙ=зйЙк~нзкI=млЙк=зк=fq=ЬЙдйЗЙлвK
DRM package
DRM packaging software is typically included in the software used by the content provider. It is used to create the DRM package according to the OMA DRM v1 standard before it is delivered to the phone, including content and associated licences.
In Japan, only files with SD protection for playback will be accepted in the Media player and in some European markets DRM content can be used only for automated use/themes, such as ringtones.
Alterations to the appearance of many of the screens may be simply carried out through changing the phone's Theme. New themes may be loaded on to Sony Ericsson P1 from the Internet or other sources.
Background and application shortcuts
Users can set a static image, or animated GIF, to be the background 'wallpaper' for the standby screen. The image size is 208 x 189 pixels and the following formats are supported: JPEG, GIF, BMP, WBMP, MBM and PNG. Larger images will be resized to fit.
The application shortcut buttons may be personalized by the user. The user may also select to have them displayed all the time.
Screen saver
A 'screen saver' image is displayed after a period of inactivity. The user can switch this facility on and off and select the delay period before the screen saver is displayed. Image size is 208 x 320 pixels and the format is the same as the background image above. Note that use of animated GIF increases power consumption.
Device lock may be used in combination with the screen saver. Upon pressing a button or touching the screen, the user will be prompted to activate keys and/or enter the device lock code.
When the screen saver is deactivated, Sony Ericsson P1 will revert to the state it was in before the screen saver was activated.

Picture phone book
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
The user may store a picture of each contact in the Contacts application. When an incoming call is received with a CLI (Calling Line Identification) matching a phone contact, the contact's picture is displayed together with the other information. The contact's picture is also displayed when making a
Ringtones
The user can add as many ringtones as desired, subject only to available file space. Ringtones may be collected from many sources including Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™), MMS, EMS and transfer from a PC.
Any compatible audio file in the multimedia storage (internal or memory card) including MP3 can be selected as a ringtone. Sony Ericsson P1 can play both iMelody format ringtones and the following polyphonic formats: AMR, AU, MIDI, RMF (Beatnik), MP3 and WAV.
A system default ringtone is provided. This is the ringtone when the Sony Ericsson P1 is first initialised. It cannot be deleted and is retained after a Master Reset.
call, or using the speed dial screen in picture view mode. A copy of the picture is held in the Contacts database. Therefore, the original picture may be deleted or renamed without losing the copy stored in Contacts.
A personal ringtone may be selected for a contact ­simply select the required ringtone while entering or editing the contact's details. When the Calling Line Identification (CLI) of the incoming call is matched to a contact, the Personal ringtone for that contact will be played. If the ringtone has been deleted, moved, renamed or exists on a memory card that is unplugged, then the system default ringtone will be played.
If no CLI information is available, then only a default ringtone can be played. If the user has selected a personalized default ringtone and it is available (can be read from the internal storage or memory card) then it will be played, otherwise the system default will be played.
Themes and skins
A theme or skin is a way to provide a complete customized visual experience for the user.
Themes can define:
• Text, outline and background colours.
• Background images.
• Graphical appearance of interface elements.

Over-The-Air (OTA) configuration
OTA remote configuration provides a simple set-up of services. The user is spared the task of finding complex technical information and then manually entering it via the UI. Instead, a web request or a
call to the mobile operator's helpdesk is all that is needed – the appropriate settings can then be sent via SMS directly to the phone.

OTA configuration using the OMA Client Provisioning v1.1 (WAP OMA Provisioning) specification, which is a backward compatible extension of the client provisioning functionality included in WAP 2.0 (v1.0), enables the following parameters to be provisioned:
• WAP account (account name and WAP Gate­way settings)
• ISP settings (bearer information, username, password)
• Browser settings including Bookmark (name and URL)
• OMA DS Sync settings (SyncML)
• MMS settings
• Email account for POP3, IMAP4 and SMTP including settings (username, password, address, server details)
• OMA Device Management

Locks
Sony Ericsson P1 has the following lock functionality:
Keylock
The Keylock can be turned on or off by:
• A long press on the back key.
• The standard keypad sequence (# then unlock).
qЬЙ=лн~нмл=Д~к=Д~ннЙку=бЕзе=Зб~дзЦK
Phone lock
The phone lock can be set to ‘off’, ‘at power on’ or ‘when SIM changed’.
When set to ‘at power on’ the phone lock code has to be entered every time the phone is turned on.
Locking the keypad can invoke the 'power save now' option or the screen saver (user setting).
Auto keylock is a user setting, only activated from the Control panel.
When set to ‘when changing SIM’ the phone lock will be activated if the SIM is changed, this prevents other users from using the phone with their SIM without the owner’s consent.
50 May 2007
The code can be changed by the user as long as they know the current code.
SIM card lock
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
The SIM card lock can be set to ‘off’ or ‘at power on’.
If the SIM card lock is set to ‘off’ the SIM can be used by any user without the SIM owner’s consent.
3G
Increased 3G data rates, together with extended multimedia and entertainment content, has enhanced the use of mobile Internet in a revolutionary way.
The 3G (third-generation) service combines high speed radio access with IP (Internet Protocol)­based services.
The connectionless nature of IP makes access a lot faster: file downloads take less time and users can be connected to a network within a few seconds.
3G has significantly boosted network capacity allowing operators to support more users, and offer more sophisticated services. This phone is dual mode, meaning the user will be able to use Sony Ericsson P1 without having to think about which system is in operation – the handover between the two systems is seamless.
GSM and WCDMA development
Wideband technology is deployed in parallel with the enhancement of the existing spectrum, re­using parts of the GSM infrastructure. All spectrum assets are valuable, as there is a substantial increase in both the number of subscribers and the volume of traffic in the networks. This seamless solution gives operators a flexible network where the systems interact according to current demand.
If the SIM card lock is set to ‘at power on’, every time Sony Ericsson P1 is switched on the user will have to enter a predefined code. The code can be changed by the user as long as they know the current code.
User experience
For the consumers, using a network consisting of GSM, GPRS and WCDMA parts is a seamless experience. GPRS allows qualified mobile Internet applications, while the introduction of WCDMA brings a whole new set of user services, using the full potential of wideband data transport
Handover/service continuity
The scope of this text includes service requirements for handover maintaining continuity of service to a wireless terminal, as it moves between the radio coverage area, or “cells”, associated with different base station sites. This functionality is called “handover”. It is a key requirement to allow for dual or multi-mode terminals to handover traffic from UTRAN to other radio systems such as GERAN and vice versa. This part describes the general principles for service continuity within UMTS Radio Access Network, within GSM/GPRS and between UMTS Radio Access Network and other radio systems such as GSM/GPRS. As a principle, the requirements on service continuity characteristics should be according to the target network on which the service is maintained.
Service continuity
Service continuity should support the following scenarios:
51 May 2007
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
• Continuity of active circuit switched services when moving within UMTS Radio Access Net­work, within GSM/GPRS and between UMTS Radio Access Network and GSM/GPRS cover­age areas.

General operational considerations
Mechanisms defined to support service continuity between different radio systems or radio access modes should effectively cope with a number of coverage scenarios:
• Limited coverage in a “sea” of coverage pro­vided by another radio system or radio access mode.
• Selective operation at a geographical boundary, with extensive UMTS Radio Access Network coverage on one side, and extensive coverage from another radio system on the other side.

data rate, delay constraints, error rate etc. In the event that certain UMTS Radio Access Network bearer services cannot be handed over to GSM/ GPRS, the handover of some of the bearers to maintain the service should not be precluded.
In the case where a user equipped with a dual mode terminal is in UMTS Radio Access Network coverage, and has multiple PDP contexts activated (for instance to support multimedia), then it is preferable to handover one PDP context, rather than dropping all of them.
As a first priority only the PDP contexts which have an associated QoS that can be supported by the GSM/GPRS should be candidates for handover.
If there are still multiple PDP contexts as “handover candidates”, then the operator should choose which PDP is maintained. When roaming, the serving network should make this decision. The operator may choose to either:
• Drop all of the PDP contexts.

During intra-UMTS Radio Access Network handover or handover from UMTS Radio Access Network to GSM/GPRS, degradation of service should be no greater than during intra-GSM/GPRS handover. The duration of the discontinuity experienced by packet switched and circuit switched real time services should be shorter than that in the handover of voice calls over GSM/ GPRS.

Consideration must be given to services that may involve multiple bearer services (and simultaneous sessions). The mapping between UMTS Radio Access Network bearer services and GSM/GPRS bearer services depends on many factors such as

Positioning
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
The basic cost efficient positioning method available in 3G networks relies on measuring round-trip time. In 3G it is called Cell-ID + TA (Timing in Advance).
Time difference measurement, involving several base stations, can be used to obtain a more accurate position.
GPRS
The introduction of GPRS was a big step in the evolution of the GSM networks for enhancing the capabilities of data communication. Data traffic has increased (over both wired and wireless networks), with the growth in demand for Internet access and services paralleling that of mobile communications.
We can now see that the demand for high-speed Internet access is the key driver for coming generations of wireless multimedia and entertainment services, and GPRS is important as a stepping stone when we enter the 3G network era. GPRS has allowed innovative services to be created and granted access to new and previously inaccessible market segments, which will be further developed with 3G.
GPRS is able to take advantage of the global coverage of existing GSM networks. Applications developed for GPRS have been deployed on a large scale and have thus reaped the associated benefits.
With GPRS, Sony Ericsson P1 sends data in “packets” at a very high speed. The phone remains connected to the network at all times, using transmission capacity only when data is sent or received. Instead of occupying an entire voice channel for the duration of a data session, Sony Ericsson P1 sends and receives data in small packets, as needed, much like IP on the Internet. Thanks to this, the phone is always online, using transmission capacity only when data is sent or
Positioning methods are already used to support location-based information services such as

received. Sony Ericsson P1 is compatible with GPRS R99. The GSM system limits the ability to use all eight time slots, so Sony Ericsson P1 uses up to four time slots for receiving data, and up to one slot for transmitting.
Information about the identity of the phone and the characteristics of the connection are described in the PDP (Packet Data Protocol) context. This information is stored both in the phone and in the mobile network, so that each phone is identified and “visible” to the system.
Using GPRS with Sony Ericsson P1 has many advantages:
• Constant connection – Keep an open connec-
tion to an email system or the company net­work, staying online to receive and send messages at all times. All connection settings can be managed by using the data connections feature.
• High speed – Gain access automatically to
increased band-width when downloading large files, images etc.
• Cost efficient – Use transmission capacity only
when needed, thus reducing costs.

Symbian OS operating system
Symbian OS is the open operating system licensed by the world's leading mobile phone manufacturers. It is designed for the specific requirements of advanced 2G, 2.5G and 3G mobile phones. Symbian OS combines the power of an integrated applications environment with mobile telephony, bringing advanced data services to the mass market.
Symbian OS supports a wide range of device categories with several user interfaces, this includes UIQ, which is the software platform used by Sony Ericsson P1.
Key features of Symbian OS v9.1
General
• Improved system performance, especially at start up.
• New multimedia framework supporting record­ing, playback and streaming.
• Direct access to screen and keyboard gives high performance, graphics accelerator API, and increased UI flexibility (support for multiple simultaneous display, multiple display sizes and multiple display orientation).
• Java™ support for the latest wireless Java stan­dards. See “Java™” on page 55 for more infor­mation.
• Communications protocols using wide area net­working stacks, including TCP/IP (dual mode IPv4/v6) and IPSec. Improved personal area networking support including infrared (IrDA), Bluetooth™ connectivity and the introduction of USB. Support is also provided for multihoming and link layer Quality-of-Service (QoS) on GPRS and UMTS networks.
• Symbian OS v9.1 is ready for the 3G market with support for: WCDMA (3GPP R4), GSM cir­cuit switched voice and data (CSD), packet­based data (GPRS), SIM, and U-SIM.
• Supports the Unicode Standard version 3.0.
• Data synchronization has been improved to cover the following: over-the-air (OTA) synchro­nization support using OMA standards (OMADS
1.2); PC-based synchronization over, Bluetooth connectivity, infrared and USB; a PC Connectiv­ity suite providing the ability to transfer files and synchronize PIM data.
• Improved device management which provides network operators and enterprises with new capabilities to manage phones in the field. This includes OMA DM 1.1.2 support and OMA client provisioning 1.1.
• Support for Bluetooth wireless technology eSCO and Bluetooth stereo headset profiles have been implemented.
Security
The aims of the security developments in Symbian OS v9.1 are to protect the integrity of the phone, provide extra control over user billable events and to prevent malicious software corrupting executables and data. The aims have been met by:
• Providing platform security by a proactive sys­tem defence mechanism based on granting and monitoring application capabilities through Symbian Signed certification. The infrastructure allows applications to have private protected data stores.
• A proactive defence mechanism against mal­ware. The platform security infrastructure uses a capability based model which ensures that sen­sitive operations, such as, modifying user data, making calls and using network connections, can only be accessed by applications which have been certified by an appropriate signing authority.
• Data caging, which allows applications to have their own private data protection. This allows applications a guaranteed secure data source. This can be used for applications, such as,
54 May 2007
White paper Sony Ericsson P1
ecommerce. An application can access other directories marked as open but cannot access another application’s private directory.
• Additional platform security includes full encryption and certificate management, secure protocols (HTTPS, SSL and TLS) and WIM framework.
EKA2 Kernel
• A new realtime kernel (EKA2) with guaranteed response times provides the basis for a robust and power-efficient phone. Predictable real time operation means that the OS will respond to interrupts, system and user threads within a known period. This means that no task in the system can prevent the OS from responding to key tasks.
UIQ 3.0
• Support for multiple simultaneous IP connec­tions.
Development and testing
• Provides new customization and configurability options for the operating system.
• Symbian OS is built using the ARM RVCT 2.1 compiler. This compiler is compliant with the ARM EABI standard. This allows compatibility with the latest ARM compilers and reduces the Symbian OS footprint while enchancing perfor­mance.
• Developing for Symbian OS - native system and application development in C++, supported by CodeWarrior and shortly Eclipse-based IDEs (. Java MIDP 2 supported by all mainstream Java tools. PC-hosted emulator for general develop­ment.
The new UIQ 3.0 platform offers support for multiple form factors on the same code base and ease of operator configuration.
UIQ 3.0 is based on Symbian OS v9.1 and is equipped to meet the various demands from phone manufacturers, network operators and end users.
