T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
Pr oduct overview
The T226 mobile phone is designed to include an
impressive set of features for a very reasonable price.
The fo cus is on messaging, music, gaming, imaging,
and connectivity. EMS picture messaging (text
messaging with pictures and sounds), email, MMS
(Multimedia messaging), and a snap-on camera
accessory are all supported.
This phone offers a fast and satisfying mobile Internet
experience.The T226 is a dual band (850/1900MHz)
phone scheduled to be available during the third
quarter of 2003.
Key functions and features
Multimedia Messaging - Digital greetings
Reacting to the enormous popularity of mobile phone
messaging, Sony Ericss on has inc orp orated the latest
messaging stan dards into the T226 phone , along with a
color display for an enhanced imaging experience.
Say it in words, say it with pictures, animate it, add
sound. Multimedia birthday and holiday greetings are
great fun to put together using your phone. On
vacation, use your mobile phone and accessories to
send a digital postcard with stylized text, digital
pictures of wher e you are, and aut hen tic soun d clips to
friends and family back home.
With MMS, the subscription applications get more
interesting, for example stock information, movie
trailers and weather reports.
Polyphonic ring signals
Pleasing to the ear, polyphonic ring signals play
several tones simultaneously making a more musical
sound. The word “polyphony” means playing with
several tones at the same time. Almost all music that
we listen to consists of polyphonic melodies.
Polyphonic sounds and ring signals are finally
becoming widely used in GSM mobile phones.
polyphonic sound format - iMelody.
The development from the iMelody format to the
MIDI format means a revolution to the sound quality.
The MIDI files are small, and perfect for mobile
devices which have limited storage capacity.
MIDI - Musical Instrument Digital Interface - is a
specification for a communications protocol
principally used to control electronic musical
instruments. MIDI is today a well known standard
used by musicians, composers, arrangers and so forth.
A MIDI signal or file does not contain any music, but
instead it contains binary data (information) of how a
melody is played. When these da ta reach a syn thesizer,
the synthesizer will translate the binary data to music,
when connected to an amplifier with speakers so that
the sound becomes audible.
Please visit www.midi.org for more information.
Downloadable games
Gaming is already a very popular feature in Sony
Ericsson phones. In addition to pre-installed games,
now the mobile Int er net port al offers the possibi li ty of
downloading games. Network operators may also
offer downloadable games to their customers as an
added value offer. Users can add new games and skill
levels to further enhance the entertainment value of
Sony Ericsson phones.
T226 downloading of games is made possible by a
true virtual machine. The Sony Ericsson portal for
downloading of free games is accessible via the WAP
browser. The openness of the downloadable games
solution is dedicated to provide an enhanced gaming
experience.
The downloadable games can fully take advantage of
the phone’s interfaces, such as TCP/IP, SMS, vibrator
and backlights. The virtual machine executes the
downloading of games for the optimal game
experience. The user can download an unlimited
number of games as long as the file system allows it,
i.e. until the phone memory is full.
The T226 wil l contai n sever al po lyp honic r ing sign als .
Users can share r in g signals, and download them f rom
the Web.
Early Ericsson mobile phones supported a proprietary
non-polyphonic format called eMelody. Due to the
musical limitations of eMelody, and as it became
popular to create, send and download ring melodies,
Ericsson and Sony Ericsson, tog et her with other
manufacturers created the more advanced non-
The downloading concep t inc lud es cer tification of the
games, which makes it possible to create a revenue
chain and favorable business opportunities for
network operators and content providers. The virtual
machine uses true sandbox technology for highest
level of security. The software development kits are

Imaging
With a digital camera attached to your phone, you can
take, view , store and se nd high-qua lity pic tures over the
air to another mobile phone, as MMS m es sa ges, or you
can send t hem to an email ad dress or Web photo albu m.
Downloading images from the Web is another
alternative. Thousands of online image collections
already exist on the Web and many sites are already
gearing up to include images for use in mobile phones.
There are v ariou s ways t o in corp orate imag es and other
multimedia into your communication. You can attach
pictures to people listed in your phonebook and have
pictures or icons of the caller identifying them in your
display.
The pictures are stored in the picture browser in the
phone. From here, the user can select view, thumbnail
or full view, as well as keep track of the number and
size of the pictures stored in the phone.
WAP
Your T226 supports the WAP 1.2.1 browser and
protocol stack, as well as the WAP 2.0 browser. With
WAP 1.2.1, your phone can read WML pages and use
WTLS class 3 security. The added benefit of
supporting the WAP 2.0 browser is the capability to
navigate to pages written in XHTML Mobile Profile
and XHTML Basic markup languages. These two
languages, subsets of the Web standard XHTML, are
supported by all major Web browsers. An XHTML
page can be viewed in both the WAP browser and in
any standard Web browser. All of the basic XHTML
features are supported, including text, images, links,
checkboxes, radio buttons, text areas, headings,
horizo ntal rules and lists. In addi tion to WML,
XHTML Mobile Profile, and XHTML Basic, your
phone supports the markup language iHTML.
With the WAP 2.0 browser, cascading style sheets
(CSS) and cookies are supported. CSS enhances
content presentation and style. Cookies are often used
by Web sites to store site-specific information in the
browser between visits to the site. Cookies are often
used by e-commerce sites (shopping carts and wish
lists), and to save the user from entering the same
information more than once.
Full graphic 512 color display
Using Picture Enhancement Technology, the T226
delivers 512 colors on a large display that enhances
viewing, facilitating high-quality multimedia
messaging, and personalized imaging. The standby
display looks like the desktop in a computer, with the
menus presented as icons.
Navigation
There is an easy-to-use 4-directional navigation key.
Using finger or thumb, you can easily navigate the
menu system. When you arrive at th e r equired function
in a menu, instead of pressi ng Yes, just gen tly press the
small butt on i n t h e c ent er of t he navigation key and the
feature is activated.
GPRS
GPRS uses Internet-style packet based technology. It
allows users to be perm anently conne cted to the mobile
Internet, but onl y use s t he radio link for the duration of
time that it transfers d ata. GPRS offers the user the
speed needed for satisfactory mobile Internet usability.
Support is provided for GPRS 3+1.
Localization/Customization
Different markets will be served with appropriate prestored content. In addition, individual operators can be
provided with uniquely customized phones. A
complete list of customization options is available in
the customization specification.
More in-phone functions
Email
The T226 is another Sony Ericsson mobile phone with
a built-in fully functional email client. With inbox,
outbox, save draft and reply options, you have all the
functions you need for effective email communication
in a small and powerful mobile phone. Constantly
connected to a POP3, SMTP or IMAP4 email server
anywhere on the Internet, your T226 stores messages
(without attachments) dynamically, depending on
available memory, and updates your inbox
automatically and over the air. Check your email
anywhere. Reply to email on the move. Fri ends, fam ily
and business contacts know that when they send you
email, you receive it and can read it and act on it
immediately. You can include pictures in outgoing
emails, but cannot receive attachments. Hyperlinks in
emails are supporte d.
EMS (Enhanced Messaging Service)
You can send text, pictures and sounds in easy-tocreate and fun messages. EMS has been adopted by
several l ea di ng mo b il e p hone manufacturers, maki ng it
5
T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
possible for users to send enhanced text messages to
users of other makes of mobile phones. EMS makes it
possible for the user to use text formatting (style, size,
alignment and paragraphs) in a text message. At
purchase, t he phone is loaded with several pre-define d
images and animations.
Predictive Text Input Software
Text messaging with your T226 is made easier than
ever with the introduction of predictive text input
software. Inst ea d of having to press ke ys several times
for a letter, software in your T226 chooses from a
dictionary of words and phrases and anticipates what
word or phrase you are writing, giving your mobile
phone keyboard ease of use comparable to that of a
full-size keyboard.
Sleep Mode
After a short period of inactivity, the display changes
to sleep mode to save power.
Memory management
All applications in the phone share the same memory,
allowing for efficient memory usage. When the
memory runs low, the user gets information about the
current memory situation, where each application’s
usage is displayed. In the memory manager menu, the
user can delete items from any application, in order to
set memory free. At purchase, there is approximately
400 KB of memory space available to the user in the
file system f or objects such as pict ures, games, soun ds,
and themes. In addition to the user space, the file
system contains preloaded pictures, games, sounds,
MMS messages, message templates, themes, and WAP
security information. Details depend on market and
customer requirements.
Mobile chat
Mobile chat makes text messaging easier, since a chatsession opens up immediately when a text message is
received from a phone. Because the user stays
connected during the session, the messages open up
automatically. Previous messages from both persons
are visible on screen, each writer being distinguished
by a nickname.
Picture phonebook
The phonebook lets the user assign a picture and/or a
personal ring signal to a certain phone number. When
the user gets a call from this person, the picture
(instead of the number) is shown in the display.
be saved. You can also choose t o add, resc hedule , edit,
send or delete events.
iMelody and Melody Composer
The audio iMelody format enhances the sound quality
in the T226. With this format, the user can play,
compose, edit and send melodies within the improved
Melody Composer. The composer has an improved
graphical user interface to simplify melody handling.
All new and edit ed melodies are stored in t he i Me lo dy
format.
Explanatory Help
The T226 can be pre-loaded with an MMS message
that contains a demonstration of some of the phone’s
features. In addition, an icon glossary is included.
Sound browser
From the Sound browser fun ct ion , the user can handl e
all sounds (for example MIDI, eMelodies, iMelodies
and sound recordings) stored in the phone. The user
can play, send and view information on the sounds.
Ring signals (MIDI, eMelody, iMelody, vMel) can be
downloaded via WAP or exchanged via SMS
(iMelodies) and MMS (MIDI, iMelodies). Sound
recordings c an be exchang ed via MMS. The m aximum
number of sou nds is l imite d only by the amoun t of free
memory.
Pleas e also see information about the MIDI fo rmat
under “Polyphonic ring signals” on page 4.
Camera application
The camera application supports a number of Sony
Ericsson cameras . The user can browse, view, send
and store pict ures in the ph one. It is a lso po ssibl e to s et
different picture sizes.
Themes
With themes, the user can change the appearance of
the display, for example, the text, the background
colors and the background picture. The phone comes
with a number of pre-defined themes. It is possible to
download and exchange additional themes. The
maximum number of themes is limited only by the
amount of free memory.
Events
The Events feature keeps track of important meetings
that you need to attend, phone calls that you need to
make or tasks that you need to do. Twenty items can

Multimedia in the
T226
The T226 is a multimedia phone. The color display
together with the audio functionality gives the user
several multimedia possibilities. For example, sounds
can be recorded and stored. By using themes, it is easy
to change the appearance of the display. Pictures,
audio, animations and themes can be transmitted via
MMS.
Graphics
Graphics (tables, charts, diagrams and layouts) have a
major impact on the way we work. The T226 supports
JPG (max 640x480), GIF (max 160x120), WBMP
(max 320x320) and animate d GIFs.
You can set a pictur e to app ear as the back gro und when
you are in standby mode.
Themes
With theme s, the us er can ch ange the appe arance of the
display, for example the text, the background colors
and the background picture. The phone comes with a
number of pre-defined themes, and it is possible to
download add it ion al t hem es . The maxi m um number of
themes is limited only by the amount of memory.
Image formats
For informati on on Im ag e for mats and do wnl oadi ng of
images, see “Image format technical data” on page 54
and “Images – downloading to phone” on page 54.
Audio
The user of the T226 can use the mobile phone as a
sound recorder. With the sound recorder function, it is
easy to make a voice recording, for example a personal
rendition of “Happy Birthday”. The audio function in
the T226 also allows downloading of sounds and
melodies.
Pictures
With a digital camera attached to your T226, you can
take, view and store pictures. It is also possible to
download color pictures to your T226. The pictu res are
stored in the picture browser in the phone. From here,
the user can sel ect vie w, thumbnail or full vie w, as well
as keep track of the number and size of the pictures
stored in the phone.
The pictures stored in your T226 can be used for
creating you r own digita l postc ards. This is easil y done
by adding text to the pictures and sending them via
MMS.
7
MMS (Multimedia
Messaging Service)
One of the key features in the T226 is the Multimedia
Messaging Service (MMS). MMS is expected to
become the preferred messaging method of mobile
terminal us er s, since there are vi rtually no limits t o the
content of an MMS t ransmission . An MMS message
from the T226 can contain text, graphics, animations,
images, audio clips and ring melodies. For more
detailed information, see “Multimedia Messaging
Service” on page45. For third-party developers’
information, please visit www.Ericsson.com/
mobilityworld/ and look for the MMS Developers’
guidelines.
Defined and specified by 3GPP as a standard for third
gener ation implementation, MMS completes the
potential of messaging. Sending digital postcards and
PowerP oint-style pr esentations is expected to be
among the most popular user applications of MMS.
Eagerly awaited by young users in particular, MMS is
projected to fuel the growth of related market
segments by as much as forty percent.
Using the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) as
bearer technology and powered by the high-speed
transmission technologies such as GPRS, Multimedia
Messaging allows users to send and receive messages
that look like PowerPoint-style presentations. The
messages may include any combination of text,
graphics, photographic images, speech and music
clips. MMS eventually will serve as the default mode
of messaging on all terminals, making total content
exchange second nature. From utility to sheer fun, it
offers benefits at every level and to every kind of user.
T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
Figure 1. An MMS message can contain images,
music, audio and graphics.
MMS objects
Although MMS is a direct descendant of SMS, the
difference in content is dramatic. The size of an
average SMS message is about 140 bytes, while the
maximum size of an MMS message is limited only by
the memory. That is why the key word to describe
MMS content is rich. Complete with words, sounds
and images, MMS content is endowed with the user’s
ideas, feelings and personality. And whether the
messages are full or only notifications is insignificant.
An MMS message can contain one or more of the
following:
Text
As with SMS and EMS, an MMS message can cons is t
of normal text. Th e length of the text is unlimit ed , and
it is possible to format the text. The main difference
between an EMS and MMS message is that in an
MMS message, text can be accompanied not only by
simple pixel images or melodies but by photographic
images, graphics, audio clips and in the future, video
sequences.
Templates
The T226 comes with a number of MMS pre-defined
templates, for example templates for birthday cards,
meeting requests, etc.
8
T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
Audio
MMS provides the ability to send and receive full
sound (iMelody, MIDI and AMR) messages. Not only
can users share a favorite song or ring signal with a
friend, they can also use the mobile phone to record
sound and s end it alon g with a messa ge. Bec ause s ound
includes speech as well as music, this extra dimension
of an MMS message makes fo r enhanc ed immediac y of
expression and communication. Rather than sending a
downloaded birthday jingle in EMS, for example, a
user can send a clip of his or her own personal
rendition of “Happy Birthday”.
The T226 will contain several polyphonic ring signals.
Users can share ring signals, and download them from
the Web.
Pictures and themes
By using a snap-on camera accessory, users can take a
snapshot and immediately send it to a recipient. The
ability to send pictures is one of the most exciting
attribu tes of MMS, as it allows users to share
meaningful moments with friends, family and
colleagues.
Mobile picture transmission also offers inestimable
utility in busine ss applications, from sending on-si te
pictures of a construction project to capturing and
storing an interesting design concept for later review.
Editing a picture by adding text allows users to create
their own electronic postcards, an application that is
expected to substantially cut into the traditional
postcard-sending market. Themes (downloaded or predefined) can be exchanged via MMS.
SMIL presentations
SMIL stands for Sync hronized Multimedia Integ ration
Language and is pronounced “smile”. SMIL in the
T226 allows the user to create and transmit
PowerPoint-style presentations on the mobile device.
SMIL is an advanced XML-based protocol, and Sony
Ericsson MMS supports a subset of this protocol.
Using a simple media editor, users ca n incorporate
audio and animated GIFs along with still images,
animations and text to assemble full multimedia
presentations.
Business card (vCard)
With MMS in the T226, the user can send his/her
busine ss card.
.
Figure 2. Example of the creation of an MMS message.
Benefits
Essentially enablin g the mobile terminal to serve as
image processor and conveyor, Multimedia Messaging
accommodates the exchange of important visual
informati on as r eadil y as it faci lit ates f un. Busi ness an d
leisure usage of MMS will be dynamically merged,
resulting in enhanced personal efficiency for users and
increased network activity for operators. In short,
MMS affords total usage for total communication
Because MMS uses WAP as its bearer technology and
is being standardized by 3GPP, it has wide industry
support and offers full in teroperability, which is a
major benefit to service providers and end users. Easeof-use resulting from both the gradual steps of the
messaging evolution and the continuity of user
experience gained from interoperability is assured.
The idea of SMIL is to allow the user to customize the
page timing in PowerPoint-style presentations. The
user can decide in which order the image and text will
be displayed, as well as for how long the images and
text lines are to be shown in the display
PIM com munication with MMS
With MMS in the T226, it is easy to send and receive
business cards and events.
9
T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
The MMS server, through which MMS messages are
sent, supports flexible addressing (to both normal
phone numbers (MSISDN) and email accounts),
which makes the user interface more friendly and
allows greate r control for operators. The M MS se rve r,
moreover, is responsible for the instant delivery of
MMS.
MMS techn i cal featu res
The MMS standard, just like SMS, offers store-andforward transmission (instant delivery) of messages,
rather than a mailbox-type model. MMS is a personto-person communications solution, meaning that the
user gets the message directly into the mobile. Unlike
SMS, the MMS standard uses WAP as its bearer
protocol. MMS will take advantage of the high speed
data transport te chnologies such as GPRS and support
a variety of image, video and audio formats to
facilitate a complete communication experience.
Architecture
The MMS Center (MMS-C) is compri sed of the MMS
Server, the MMS Proxy-Relay and the MMS Store.
The MMS Center is the central element of the MMS
network architecture, providing storage and
operational support, enabling instant delivery of
multimedia messages from terminal-to-terminal and
terminal-to-email, and supporting flexible addressing.
The center’s MMS Proxy-Relay interacts with the
application being run on the MMS-enabled terminal to
provide various messaging services. WAP is used as
bearer of an MMS message between the MMS-C and
the MMS client (application). The WAP Gateway is
used for delivery and retrieval of messages.
Figure 3. The architecture of MMS
Message con version
The MMS-C is able to perform limited message
conversion - for example, from MMS to SMS - s o that
processing and air time is not wasted in sending
messages to mobile terminals that do not have
adequate capability to receive them. It also handles
service aspects such as store and forward, guaranteed
delivery, subscriber preferences, operator constraints,
and billing information. The MMS-C als o vouc hes for
high quality messaging, e.g. by format conversion.
This means t hat t he MMS-C recogn izes whic h for mats
are supported in the mobile phone, and adapts the
MMS messages to these formats.
OT A configuration
Users can easily get MMS into their phone. MMS
supports OTA, meaning that the user does not have to
configure the settings manually.
The configuration is done by the operator.

EMS (Enhanced
Messaging Service)
Enhanced Messaging Service (EMS) adds new
powerful functionality to the well-known SMS
standard. With it, mobile phone users can add life to
SMS text messaging in the form of pictures,
animations, sound and formatted text. This gives the
users new ways to express feelings, moods and
personality in SMS messages. In addition to
messaging, users will enjoy downloading, collecting,
swapping, and editing pictures, ring signals, and other
melodies.
EMS uses existing SMS infrastructure and industry
standards, keeping investments to a minimum for
operators. EMS provides a familiar user interface and
compatibility with existing phones and other
manufacturers.
EMS – more than just words
Sounds and melodies
EMS gives the user the ability to send and receive
sounds. These can be pre-defined sounds or melodies
(ring signals in the phone), downloaded from the
Internet, received in SMS messages or composed by
the user on the phone keypad or a PC. Note that MIDI
ring signals cannot be exchanged via EMS.
Several sounds and melodies can be inserted in one
message, and they can be combined with pictures.
Pictures, animations and formatted text
Phones supporting EMS include a set of pre-defined
pictures for inserting in SMS messages. New pictures
and animations are downloaded from the Internet or
received in SMS messages. Several pictures can be
inserted in one messa ge, and the y can be combine d
with sounds and me lodies. The users can format text in
messages with different styles and sizes.
Concatenated messages
A part of the EMS standard is the support for
concatenated messages, which means that the phone is
able to automatically combine seve ral messages both
when creating and receiving EMS. This is useful to be
able to build, and display, messages with rich content,
since the amount of information in each SMS is limited
by the SMS standards.
New possibilitie s with mes sag ing
The EMS standard is now a part of the SMS standard
and supported by the major network operators and
mobile phone manufacturers. This universal approach
enables a fast penetration and development of new
services and applications within messaging.
Creativity explosion
Users will be inspired to create and swap their own
melodies and pictures. But more importantly,
professional content creators and providers are already
preparing to of fer i magin ative and c reati ve cont ents fo r
use with EMS. Based on subscriptions, fees or ads,
network operators will be able to provide wide ranges
of ring signals, operator logos and corporate icons, as
well as personal and mood-related pictures and
melodies. Movie, music and game companies can
promote new products and events with designer
melodies, animations and pictures.
Huge business potential
Network operators can now enhance their services and
attract more customers by offering pictures,
animations, ring signals and melodies for download at
their portals. Operators can charge more per EMS
message since it contains more data. Thereby EMS
adds more value to the operators and to the end users.
Increase SMS revenue
EMS uses the same basic network support as ordinary
SMS, and with the same familiar user interface. From
an operator's point of view, SMS is low tech because
minimal investment is needed to provide an effective
SMS serv ice to subscribers and little maintenance is
required. EMS will create additional revenue for
service providers and network operators by increasing
SMS traffic.
11
T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
Compatible with SMS standards
Users will find EMS as easy to use as SMS. Over 15
billion SMS messages, are sent every month
worldwide. Roughly 80% of this traf fi c is user -to -user,
i.e. mobile phone us ers send ing short mess ages to each
other using the keypad of the phone to enter text. The
remaining 20% is shared by downloads and
notifications of different kinds.
The Enhanced Messaging Service (EMS) was first
submitted to the standards committees by Ericsson.
Ericsson present ed the outline structure of EMS to the
relevant ETSI/ 3GPP committees. The major mobile
phone manufacturers and most operators are actively
contributing to the 3GPP standards. Hence the EMS
standards have evolved and are now stable and
complete as part of the 3rd Generation Partnership
Projec t (3GPP) technical specification.
An EMS message can be sent to a mobile phone that
does not support EMS, or only supports part of EMS.
All the EMS elements i.e. text formatting, pictures,
animations and sounds are located in the message
header. The EMS contents will be ignored by a
receiving phone that does not support the standard.
Only the text message will be displayed to the
receiver. This is true consumer-friendly
standa rdization. EMS is compatible to SMS acr oss
most of the range of mobile phones from the oldest to
the newest.
Notification
The user typically receives a short message notifying
them that they hav e a new message in their messaging
box, with icons or fo rmatte d text fu rther enhanc ing th e
message.
Internet email aler ts
An Internet email alert is provided in the form of a
short message that typically details the sender of the
email, the subject field, and the first few words of the
email messa ge. In this case, for m at te d t ext is excellent
to identify message elements.
Ring signals
Downloading ring signals from the Internet.
News & commercials
Examples include: Illustrated world news, sports
scores and news headlines, finance and stock market
news with diagrams and tickers, commercial product
promotions, weather reports with maps, tunes from
TV commercials as ring signals.
Info & entertainment
Examples include: Ring signals, e-greetings, football
team logo, joke-of-the-day illustrated by pictures or
sound, horoscopes, movie related animation or theme
song, TV show promotions, music artist promotions,
lottery results, food and drink pictures and recipes,
mood-related pictures.
Some companies in the mobile phone industry have
developed their own messaging technologies, which
only work with their own phone models. Network
operators are i n favor of EMS because i t is universal –
many of the major mobile phone manufacturers are
constructively improving and developing the EMS
standa rds even further for implementation in their
products.
Examples of EMS contents and
applications
A wide range of contents, applications and services
may be developed. Below is a list of examples and
areas where messaging can be enhanced with EMS.
User-to-user message
Messages usually originating from the keypad of a
mobile phone can include pictures, melodies, and
formatted text with EMS.
Voice and email notifications
Notifying mobile phone users that they have new
voice or fax mail messages waiting - including icons
or melodies with EMS.
Corporate
Examples include: Flight schedules, preinstalled
corporate logos, map snippe ts and tr ave l inf o,
company branded icons and ring signals, corporate
email notifications, affinity programs where
companies notify customers of product updates etc.,
banks notifying customers about new services and
interest rates, call centers providing answers to
questions about a product, vehicle positioning
combining EMS with Global Positioning System
(GPS) position i nform ation, job dispa tch wi th del ivery
addresses for sales or courier package delivery, using
EMS in a retail environment for credit card
authorization, remote monitoring of machines for
service and maintenance purposes.

Using Web, WAP and SMS for download
Already today services exist on the Internet where
users can create melodies, view icons, pictures, and
subscribe to entertainment and informations services.
These may develop further in the future to support
Internet access by a PC connected to a mobile phone
using WAP, or even an SMS request interface.
The diagram shows the possibilities for using Enhanced Messaging Service:
- When the Operator/Service provider enables EMS in the network, users will enjoy adding life to messages with
sounds, melodies, pictures and formatted text.
- New ranges of Content/Application aggregators on the operator network or the Internet can provide EMS contents
and services to the users over SMS.
- Content Creators/providers can see a new demand for creative contents. Also, promotional activities from movie
companies, record labels etc can provide ring signals, movie snapshots, etc.
The added value in SMS messaging will create new revenue which can be shared between the network operators, the
application aggregators, and the content providers.

T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
WAP services
The T226 supports WAP 1.2.1 browser and protocol
stack, as well as WAP 2.0 browser (WML 1.3). WAP
2.0 optimizes usage of higher bandwidths and packetbased connections of wireless networks.
The ty pical WAP client is a small, portable device
connected to a wir el es s ne twork. This includes mobile
phones, pagers, smart phones, PDAs and other small
devices. Of cour se, compare d to desktop and laptop
computers, these devices are limited by user interface,
low memory and low computing power.
The WAP browser in t he T226 is compliant with W A P
2.0 and WAP 1.2.1. It includes WTLS class 3 as well
as mechanisms for digital signatures. The T226
supports WML, XHTML, and iH TML. The WAP
browser in the T226 is also designed to access
information such as timetable s, share prices, e xcha nge
rates, Internet banking and other interactive services.
For more details, see “WAP browser technical data”
on page 47.
Using WAP in the T226
Support for cookies
This version of WAP has support for cookies (client
based), an application used by Web sites to store sitespecif ic information in the browser between visits to
the site. Cookies give the site owner a possibility to
see when a perso n has vi site d thei r sit e. They al so sav e
the user from having to enter the same information
(e.g. the password or user ID) more than once.
Cookies are often use d by e-c ommerce si tes ( sho pping
carts a nd wish lists) .
Sending bookmarks
WAP 2.0 enables the sending of bookmarks via SMS.
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
WAP 2.0 enables CSS. CSS allows developers to
specify the style of WAP page content such as font,
spacing, etc. The T226 supports CSS, and with its
color display, user presentation is further enhanced.
Provide settings
Using SMS messages, configuration settings can be
sent over the air, OTA, so that the user does not need
to configure the WAP access settings manually. WAP
settings may also be customized by the operator. For
more information, see “WAP operator technical data”
on page 48.
The built-in WAP browser in the T226 gives the user
portable, fast and secure access to a wide variety of
services, including personalized services, with new
opportunities for business, individuals and service
providers:
Push services
Businesses and service providers can “push” content
or service indications to work groups and/or
customers. Exampl es of pus hed cont ent woul d be mail
alerts, messaging, news, stock quotes, contacts,
meeting requests, etc.
Support of XHTML
The WAP browser supports the markup languages of
WAP 2.0 – XHTML Mobile Profile and XHTML
Basic. These two subsets of the Web standard
XHTML are support ed by a ll maj or Web browsers. An
XHTML page can be viewe d in both t he WAP brows er
and in any standard Web browser. All of the basic
XHTML features are supported, including text,
images, links, checkboxes, radio buttons, text areas,
headings, horizontal rules and lists.
Adapt to phone type
The User Agent Profile function allows WAP content
to be automatically optimized for the T226
capabilities, ensuring the intended user experience.
Several bearer types
The T226 accesses WAP over a standard GSM Data
connection as well as over a GPRS connection
(network-dependent services.)
Bandw idth efficien cy
Unlike traditional Internet services, WAP services are
relayed to wireless devices as binary encoded data,
maximizing bandwidth efficiency. A GPRS
connection further increases efficiency.
Easy to create WAP pages
Creating a WAP service is no harder than creating an
Internet/intranet service, since the markup languages
(WML, WMLScript, X HTML Mobile Profile, and
XHTML Basic) are based on well-known Internet
languages such as HTML, XHTML, and JavaScript.
Using standard tools
Service creators can use standard tools such as ASP
(Active Server Page) or CGI (Common Gateway
Interface) to generate content dynamically. Services
can be created once and then made accessible on a
14
T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
broad range of wireless networks.
Existing services can be adapted to WAP. The
necessary binary encoding is handled by a WAP
Gateway, allowing HTML-based services to be vi ewed
on the WAP browser of the T226. An XHTML page
can be viewed in both the WAP browser and in any
standard Web browser.
Improve productivity
A business can use a W AP gateway to provide a secur e
connection to it s cor porat e networ k, impr oving i nter nal
communication flow by making information available
to mobile as well as offic e users.
The WAP profiles
A WAP profile holds network settings and user
identif ication, allowing the user to switch easily
betwee n corporate services and WAP services on the
Internet, simply by switching WAP profile.
The T226 has dynamic WAP profile handling, which
means that the user can add, edit and delete WAP
profiles. The T226 has a maximum of 5 WAP profiles.
During WAP browsing, the options button on the T226
gives the user immediate access to a dynamic option
menu for WAP services, similar to a right mouse click
in PC programs.
Bearer type characteristics
The T226 accesses WAP services over IP. IP can be
provided either over GSM Data or GPRS, depending
on network services.
Typical differences which distinguish the bearer types
are listed bel ow.
GPRS access
•The connection is maintained “constant ly”, with
data tr ansmitted in packets, and tr ansmission
capacity being used by the application in use on
an as-needed basis.
•Higher trans m is sion speed than with G SM Data
or SMS access.
•Pricing of GPRS can be depende nt on the ac tual
use of bandwidth, which means the user is
charged for the volume of data transmitted,
rather than the duration of the connection.
•When transmitting large amounts of data, bandwidth can be increased automatically to allow
faster trans mission speed.
•Ideal for complex pull services, browsing, data
transfer, provisioning, pager services, messag-
ing services, info services, push initiations.
GSM data access
•Circuit connection of data calls, which means
that the phone is connected during the entire
WAP session.
•Pricing is comparable to that of data calls in the
network.
Gateway characteristics
A WAP Gateway provides Internet/intranet as well as
WAP services to the mobile browser. A Gateway is
identified by an IP number, depending on access type.
End-to-end gateway navigation
The WAP 2.0 supports E2E (End-to-End) Gateway
navigation, making it possible for example for a bank
to redirect its clients from the Internet gateway to its
own gateway.
Security using WAP
For certain WAP services, such as banking se rvices, a
secure connection between the phone and WAP
gateway is necessary. An icon in the display of the
T226 indicates when a secure connection is in use.
The T226 is based on the WAP 1.2.1 specification
suite, in which security functionality is specified by a
technology called Wireless Transport Layer Security
(WTLS). The WAP protocols for handling connection,
transport and securi ty are structured in layers, with
security handled by the WTLS layer, operating above
the transport protocol layer. WTLS classes define the
levels of security for a WTLS connection:
•WTLS class 1 – encryption with no authentication.
•WTLS class 2 – encryption with server authentication.
•WTLS class 3 – e ncrypt ion wi th both s erver and
client authentication.
15
T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
Server authentication requires a server certificate
stored at t he se rver side and a truste d ce rt if icate stored
at the client side.
Client authe nticati on requir es a clien t certif icate st ored
at the client side and a trusted certificate stored at the
server side.
A Wireless Identity Module (WIM) can contain both
trusted and client certificates, private keys and
algorithms needed for WTLS handshaking,
encryption/decryption and signature generation. The
WIM module can be placed on a SIM card which is
then referred to as a SWIM card.
Certificates
To use secure connections, the user needs to have
certificate s s tored in the phone. There are two types of
certificates:
•Trusted certificate
A certificate that guarantees that a WAP site is
genuine. If the phone has a stored certificate of
a certain type, it means that the user can trust
all WAP gateways tha t use the certificate.
Trusted certificates can be pre-installed in the
phone, in the SWIM or they can be downl oaded
from the trusted supplier’s WAP page.
•Client certificate
A personal certificate that verifies the user’s
identity. A bank that the us er has a contract
with may issue this kind of certificate. C lient
certificates can be pre-installed in the SWIM
card.
WIM locks (PIN cod es)
There are two types of WAP security locks (PIN
codes) for a SWIM, which protect the subscription
from unauthorized use. The PIN codes should
typically be provided by the supplier of the SWIM.
•Access lock
An access lock protects the data in the WIM.
The user i s a ske d t o enter the PIN code the first
time the SWIM card is accessed when establishing a connection.
•Signatu re lock
A signature l ock is used for confirming tr an sactions, much like a digital signature.
Configuration of WAP settings
An easy way to perform WAP configuration in the
T226 is to use the step-by-st ep WAP configurator
available on http://www.SonyEricsson.com. The
configurator utilizes OTA provisioning.
Manual configuration is done using the menu system
in the phone. This is described in the User’s Guide.
WAP settings can also be customized in the mobile
phone based on the operator’s preferences.
Over-the-air provisioning of WAP settings
To simplify the configuration of WAP settings in the
T226, all settings can be sent to the phone as an SMS
message. This make s it easy for an operator, a servi ce
provider or a company to distribute settings for
Internet/intranet, and WAP, without the user having to
configure the phone ma nual ly. This also makes i t ea sy
to upgrade services, as no manual configuration is
required.
•The OTA configuration message is distributed
via SMS point-to-point.
•The setup information is a binary encoded
XML message (WBXML). To receive information about OTA specifications, please contact
your local Sony Ericsson representative for
consumer pro duct s. A configurator that ut il i zes
OTA provisioning can be tested on
www.SonyEricsson.com.
•The user is al erted about new settings when the
ongoing browsing session ends. Settings are
not changed during an ongoing browsing session.
•User interaction is limited to receiving and
accepting/rejecting the configuration message,
and selecti ng which WAP pr ofile to alloc ate t he
settings to.
•Security can be handled using a keyword identifier displayed on the screen as a shared secret
between the SMS sender and recipient. It is
important that the user can verify that the configurat ion message is authentic.
Push services
Examples of WAP se rvi ce s t h at ca n be pus hed include:
In the T226, the user can check which transactions
have been made with the phone when browsing. Each
time the user confirms a transaction with a signature
lock code, a contract is stored in the phone. The
contract contains details about the transaction.
•Notification of new email, voice mail, etc.
•News, sports results, weather forecasts, financial information (stock quotes etc.).
•Personal Informat ion Mana ger (PIM ) - deli very
16
T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
of contacts, meeting requests etc.
•Smart card e-cash.
•Interactive games.
In the T226, the user selects whether to allow push
messages or not. Ther e ar e two different forms of Push
services:
Service Indication (SI)
An SI service sends to t he br owser a text message with
a URL of a WAP page. If the user decides to load the
URL, normal WAP browsing commences. When an SI
is recei ved by the T226, the user can load it
immediately, postpone it or delete it. Received SIs are
stored in the Pus h Inbo x and can be viewed and loaded
at a later time. The Push Inbox displays a list
containing the first part of each received message. The
list is sorted by action attribute (high/medium/low) or
reception time of the message.
Service Loading (SL)
An SL service sends and displays a WAP page if
accepted by the user. If the SL is not accepted, it is
loaded and stored in the cache for later use. The user
can start the browser and load the page from the cache
manually.
Mobile Internet
The mob ile Internet offe rs much more than mobile
access to th e Intern et. It open s up a whol e new rang e of
situation-based services that give the user access to
personalized communications, information and
entertainment, anytime, anywhere.
Data connections
In order to browse via WAP or use an Internet
connection, the user must have a data communication
connection configured in the phone. This connection
contains specific settings and parameters to connect to
an appropriate server. Several data connections can be
saved in the T226. To make it easier for the user, data
connections can be provided by the operator via
customization or OTA provisioning.
Advantages of data connections include:
•Once the data connections are defined and
named, the user does not have to enter the settings for the connection again.
•Data connections can be re-used at any time.
•Indi vidual data settings for working with WAP,
email or th e I nternet can be store d and activated
as needed.
•Data connections can be used for both GSM
Data and GPRS connection settings.
•Bearer type for WAP and corresponding bearerspecific parameters may be selected.
•Data connections contain all the necessary settings for the Internet access point, including
modem pool phone number or IP address, user
ID and password.
17
General Packet
Radio Services
The introduction of GPRS (General Packet Radio
Services) is one of the key steps in the evolution of
today’s GSM networks for enhancing the capabilities
of data communication. Data traffic is increasing
enormously (over both wired and wireless networks),
with the growth in demand for Internet access and
services paralleling that for mobile communications.
Users want access to the Internet while they are away
from their offices and homes, and surveys have found
that the vast majority of business professionals want
the ability to send and receive email, browse the Web
and transmit text and graphics on a portable device.
That is why the main applications driving Mobile
Internet development are email clients and Web
browsers.
T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
The demand for high-speed Internet access will be the
key driver for coming gen erati ons o f wir eless s ervic es,
and GPRS can deliver the necessary speed. GPRS
allows innovative services to be created, enabling ne w
and previously inaccessible market segments to be
addressed and increasing customer loyalty.
GPRS applications can be developed as both
horizontal and vertical applications. Vertical
applic ations are sp ecific, including those for
operations such as reaching police and emergency,
taxi, delivery or automated services (vending
machines, supervision, vehicle tracking). Horizontal
applications are more generic and include those for
Internet access, email, messaging, e-commerce and
entertainment.
GPRS is able to take advantage of the global cove ra ge
of existing GSM net works. Appli cations dev eloped for
GPRS can be deployed on a large scale and can reap
the associated benefits. GPRS al so provides a secure
medium for connections to private networks, banking
and financial services.
With GPRS, the T226 sends dat a in “packets ” at a very
high speed. The T226 remains connected to the
network at all times, using transmission capacity only
when data a re sent or received. Fo r det ails, see “GPRS
technical data” on page 52.

Figure 4 A comparison between GSM and GPRS
1. A normal GSM call uses only one of eight repeat-
ing time slots in the GSM ch anne l, giving a data speed
of 9,600 bps. The T226 supports a more efficient coding scheme, giving data speeds of up to 14,400 bps
(with necessary network support). Furthermore, High
Speed Circuit Switched Data (HSCSD) adds the possibility of using two time slots for receiving data,
increasing the data speed to as much as 28,800 bps
(netw ork dependent).
2. In GPRS, data is sent in packets, with up to three
time slots being combined to provide the necessary
bandwidth. The T226 is prepared to support 3+1 time
slots (three slots for receiving data and one slot for
transmitting data), giving speeds of up to 64,200 bps
for receiving data, depending on coding scheme.
Using GPRS in th e T2 26
Instead of occupying an entire voice channel for the
duration o f a dat a sess ion , the T22 6 sends /rece ive s data
in small packets, as needed, much like IP on the
Internet. Because of this, the T226 maintains a constant
online connection. Its data transmission abilities are
summoned by the application in use on an as-needed
basis.
The GPRS specification includes four coding schemes
– CS1, CS2, CS3 and CS4 – that allow data speeds of
9,050 bps, 13,400 bps, 15,600 bps and 21,400 bps
respectively using one time slot. The T226 works with
all four coding schemes, but data speed will naturally
vary according to network configuration. At the
moment, CS3 and CS4 are not supported in any live
network, i.e., present speed is limited to 40,200 bps
using three time slot s.
The GSM system limit s th e ab i li ty t o use al l ei ght time
slots, so the T226 uses up to three time slots for
receivin g data , and on e s lot fo r tr ansmit ting (3 +1). Th is
means that for CS4, the speed for receiving data is up
to 64,200 bps and up to 21,400 bps for sending data.
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 the T226 has several
advantages, for example:
•All connection settings can be managed by
using the data connections feature.
•High speed
Gain access automatically to increased bandwidth when downloading im age s, etc.
•Cost efficient
Use transmission capacity only when needed,
19
thus reducing costs.
•WAP over GPRS
Access the Internet via WAP at high speed and
with a constant connection.
•Email over GPRS
•Data and voice
•Provide settings
Receive GPRS configuration settings from the
provider over the air, OTA, making manual
configuration unnecessary.
•User contro lled settings
Take advantage of full user control in the data
connections menu, establishing multiple
descriptions and accessing advanced settings
for GPRS.

T226 White Paper
July 2003 (Rev C)
Network-dependent features
SMS and EMS messaging
The T226 is capable of sending and receiving SMS
and EMS messages, and linked messages.
•With the Short Messaging Service, a user can
send text messages containing up to 160 characters to and from GSM mobile stations
•Wi th the li nked SMS, the user ca n link up to 10
SMS messages together to create a longer message (network-dependent service)
A Service Center (SC) acts as a a storage and
forwarding center. SMS consists of two basi c ser vices:
•Mobile Originated SMS
•Mobile Terminated SMS
For Mobile Originated SMS, an SMS message is sent
from a Mobile Station to the SMS-C where it is
forwarded to its destination. This can be another
Mobile Station, or a terminal in the fixed network.
A Mobile Terminated SMS is delivered when an SMS
message is forwarded from the SMS-C to a Mobile
Station. When the Mobile Station receives the
message, it retur ns a del iver y repo rt s aying the t ransf er
was successful.
Fixed dialing and Restricted calls
For a company or an organization, it can be useful to
restrict phone calls. Fixed dialing allows the user to
preset a numbe r of digit s, for example area codes. This
restricts the user to making calls only to numbers
which use the preset digits as leading digits. Fixed
dialing makes use of the PIN2, and requires fixed dial
fields on the SIM card.
The Restrict calls service allows the user to block
outgoing or incoming calls in certain situations, for
example internatio nal calls.
TTY
TTY (Text Telephony) refers to the capability for
hearing impaired people to trasmit and receive text
messages usin g tel etype device s (TTY de vices ). Thes e
devices are composed of a keyboard, display, and
modem that transforms typed characters into TTY
signals to be transferred over the phone network. The
standard TTY signal in the U.S. is a 45.45 bit/s FSK
signal called Baudot. Traditionally, TTY users have
communicated over the analog PSTN network. In the
U.S., however, the FCC mandated that as of June 30,
2002 digital mobile systems should also support TTY
for emergency 911 calls. Unfortunately, the integrity
of Baudot decreases in poor radio conditions, due to
signal compression. To get around this problem, the
GSM standards body adopted a more robust modem
signal calle d CTM ( cel lular text modem), a s described
in 3 GPP TS 26.226 “Cellular Text Modem; General
Description”. According to the standard, the Baudot
signal gets conver ted to CTM, and it is the CTM signal
that gets transmitted over the air. In the infrastructure
side, a CTM node converts CTM back to Baudot (or
vice versa).
CTM/Baudot conversion on the T226 side takes place
in an access ory that interface s b etween the T226 (with
TTY enabled) and the user’s TTY device.
EOTD
EOTD is part of the GSM R99 location services. The
T226 supports EOTD to satisfy the FCC E911
positioning requirements. Although EOTD is
supported, it may not be enabled.
EOTD determines position of the mobile phone by
measuring the signal propagation delay between the
phone and multiple base stations. The mobile phone
knows which BTS’s to measure against based on
assistance data contained in the Measure Position
Request received from the network. Some BTS’s may
even be below the reference sensitivity of the mobile
phone (-110 dBm). Since neither the phone nor BTS
has knowledge of absolute time, the mobile phone
measures time delay by looking at the burst arrival
time differences between each BTS and a reference
BTS. This time difference is known as the observed
time difference value (OTD). The BTS’s are not
synchronized in a typical network, and suffer from
clock drift. A special device in the network, known as
an LMU, is used to measure the Real Time Difference
(RTD) between each BTS and the reference BTS. The
network take s t he OTD v al ues from the mobile ph one,
interpolates the RTD from the LMU at the
measurement time (the LMU typically only measures
each BTS once per minute), and uses the known
location and h eight of each BTS to calc ulate the pho ne
position. Because the network calculates the position
of the mobile phone, the term “MS-assisted”
positioning is used.
The T226 supports Network Induced Location
Request (NI-LR) which means that the T226 will
calculate OTD values when it receives a Measure
Position Request from the network during emergency
calls.
AMR
The T226 supports the Adapative Multi-Rate (AMR)
speech codec, which is a GSM speech service
specified in Release 98/99. AMR is significantly
different from the existing GSM speech codecs (FR,
26
HR, and EFR) in that it offers multiple speech and
channel codec rates r ather than a fixed ratio. Bot h half
and full rate channel types are defined for AMR. Eight
codec rates are defined for the full rate channel and 6
for the half rate.
AMR offers capacity advantages over the standard
GSM speech codecs in two ways. First, the half rate
mode exhibits significantly improved quality as
compared with the existing HR speech codec. Use of
the AMR half rate mode would double the number of
users that can use a given frequency and,
correspond ingly, increase the ne twork c apac ity with out
the need for added infrastructure or bandwidth. A
secondary benefit of the half rate mode is that the talk
time of the mobi le phon e would be i ncrea sed due t o th e
reduced duty cycle of the transmissions.
Second, the rate adaptability indirectly offers a
potential increased capacity with regards to the cell
repeat patter n of the syst em. Poor channe l quality could
be made acceptable by changing the AMR rate to have
more channel coding. As a result, lower C/I ratios can
be tolerated in the system. By allowing for a lower C/I
ratio, a tighter re-us e pattern may b e used which
increases the system capacity.

SIM application
toolkit
The SIM Application Toolkit (SIM AT) is a smart
card-centric method of deploying programs that apply
only to GSM and to SMS and USSD transports.
Programs must be distributed on smart cards. WAP is
an Internet-centric method of dep loy ing pr ograms that
is independent of network technology. Programs and
content are kept centrally on web servers and
downloaded as required. While there is some overlap,
WAP is a particularly good choice when deploying
programs that also have an HTML version for desktop
use. Work is currently under way on building
interfaces between the two technologies.
For an operator, a company or service provider, SIM
AT offers a powerful way to deploy programs and
services to users, without the need for new or
upgraded equipment. All necessary setup and
programming is distributed to users over the air,
directly to their phones. In the T226, a separate menu
is available for functions residing on the SIM card.
These can include sub menus for contro llin g functi ons,
and also functions which allow the phone to initiate
calls, send data, and display information to the user.
