Method for displaying transmission status of MMS (multimedia message service) message and telecommunication terminal using the method
View Patent ↗A method for displaying transmission status of a multimedia messaging service (MMS) message and a telecommunication terminal using the method, including displaying the currently transmitting content and transmission progress of the MMS message while the telecommunication terminal transmits the MMS message. A user can check the content of the MMS message being currently transmitted together with the transmission progress of the MMS message. The user also can cancel the transmission of the erroneous MMS message before completing the transmission of the MMS message.
1. A method for displaying a transmission status and a transmitted element of a multimedia data in a mobile terminal, comprising:
receiving from a user, in the mobile terminal, a sending request for the multimedia data;
detecting, in the mobile terminal, elements included in the multimedia data;
transmitting, by the mobile terminal, the elements of the multimedia data; and
displaying, in the mobile terminal, a currently transmitted element included in the multimedia data on a display unit while transmitting the multimedia data,
wherein the displayed currently transmitted element comprises a header, a text content, and an attached media file; and
displaying the currently transmitted header when the currently transmitted element is http header;
displaying the currently transmitted text when the currently transmitted element is http body; and
displaying content of the currently transmitted media file when the currently transmitted element is attached media file.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein transmitting the elements comprises sequentially transmitting the elements of the multimedia data.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein a multimedia data transmission progress is displayed as a progress bar on the display unit while transmitting the multimedia data.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
canceling the transmitting the multimedia data before multimedia data transmission is complete.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the displaying the currently transmitted element displays the currently transmitted element in proportion to a transmission progress of the currently transmitted element.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying the transmission status including a transmission progress percentage.
7. A mobile terminal to display a multimedia data transmission status and an element included in the multimedia transmission, comprising:
an input unit configured to receive, from a user, a sending request for the multimedia data;
a storage unit configured to store multimedia data;
a display unit configured to display an element included in the multimedia data while the multimedia data is being transmitted;
a transmission unit configured to read elements included in the multimedia data from the storage unit and to transmit the multimedia data; and
a controller configured to detect the elements included in the multimedia data, and to control the display unit to display a currently transmitted element included in multimedia data,
wherein the displayed currently transmitted element comprises a header, a text content, and an attached media file; and
wherein:
the display unit is configured to display the currently transmitted header when the currently transmitted element is http header;
the display unit is configured to display the currently transmitted text when the currently transmitted element is http body; and
the display unit is configured to display content of the currently transmitted media file when the currently transmitted element is attached media file.
8. The mobile terminal of claim 7 , wherein the controller further controls the display unit to display a current transmission progress of the multimedia data while the multimedia data is being transmitted.
9. The mobile terminal of claim 7 , wherein the controller further cancels a transmission of the multimedia data before the multimedia data transmission is complete.
10. The mobile terminal of claim 7 , wherein the transmission unit transmits the elements of the multimedia data sequentially.
11. A method for displaying a transmission status and an element of a multimedia data in a mobile terminal, comprising:
receiving from a user, in the mobile terminal, a sending request for the multimedia data;
detecting, in the mobile terminal, elements included in the multimedia data;
transmitting, by the mobile terminal, the elements of the multimedia data; and
displaying, in the mobile terminal, a currently transmitted element included in the multimedia data on a display unit while transmitting the multimedia data to be viewable by a user so that the user can check the multimedia data currently being transmitted,
wherein the displayed currently transmitted element comprises a header, a text content, and an attached media file; and
displaying the currently transmitted header when the currently transmitted element is http header;
displaying the currently transmitted text when the currently transmitted element is http body; and
displaying content of the currently transmitted media file when the currently transmitted element is attached media file.
12. A mobile terminal to display a multimedia data transmission status and an element included in the multimedia data, comprising:
an input unit configured to receive, from a user, a sending request for the multimedia data;
a storage unit configured to store a multimedia data;
a display unit configured to display an element included in the multimedia data while the multimedia data is being transmitted so that a user can check the multimedia data currently being transmitted;
a transmission unit configured to read elements included in the multimedia data from the storage unit and to transmit the multimedia data; and
a controller configured to detect the elements included in the multimedia data, and to control the display unit to display a currently transmitted element included in the multimedia data to be viewable by a user,
wherein the displayed currently transmitted element comprises a header, a text content, and an attached media file; and
wherein:
the display unit is configured to display the currently transmitted header when the currently transmitted element is http header;
the display unit is configured to display the currently transmitted text when the currently transmitted element is http body; and
the display unit is configured to display content of the currently transmitted media file when the currently transmitted element is attached media file.
13. The system of claim 7 , wherein the display unit displays the currently transmitted element in proportion to a transmission progress of the currently transmitted element.
14. The system of claim 7 , wherein the display unit displays the transmission status including a proportion of a transmission progress percentage.
15. A method for displaying a transmission status of a multimedia data and an element of the multimedia data in a mobile terminal, comprising:
receiving from a user, in the mobile terminal, a sending request for the multimedia data;
detecting, in the mobile terminal, elements included in the multimedia data;
transmitting, by the mobile terminal, the elements of the multimedia data; and
displaying, in the mobile terminal, an element included in the multimedia data on a display unit while transmitting the multimedia data, the displayed element comprising a previously transmitted element,
wherein the displayed previously transmitted element comprises a header, a text content, and an attached media file; and
displaying the previously transmitted header when the previously transmitted element is http header;
displaying the previously transmitted text when the previously transmitted element is http body; and
displaying content of the previously transmitted media file when the previously transmitted element is attached media file.
16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the displayed element further comprises a currently transmitted element included in the multimedia data.
17. The method of claim 15 , wherein the displayed element comprises a previously transmitted element and a currently transmitted element included in the multimedia data.
