Mobile communications device and a method for controlling a mobile communications device
A method for controlling a mobile communications device and a mobile communications device including a radio processing circuit and a baseband processing circuit adapted to interact with the radio processing circuit, configured to: receive a first call on a first subscriber identity module of a mobile communications device; receive a second call on a second subscriber identity module of the mobile communications device; suspend the first call on a local hold; switch to the second call from the first call; transmit a message to the first call while the second call is active.
1. A mobile communications device comprising a radio processing circuit and a baseband processing circuit adapted to interact with the radio processing circuit, the mobile communications device configured to:
receive a first call based on a first subscription of a mobile communications device;
receive a second call based on a second subscription of the mobile communications device;
pause the first call on a local hold;
switch to the second call from the first call; and
provide an audio message at a first bit rate from the mobile communications device to the first call while the second call is active;
wherein speech for the second call is provided at a second bit rate.
2. The mobile communications device of claim 1 further configured to:
detect an absence of audio input to the mobile communications device.
3. The mobile communications device of claim 2 further configured to:
provide the audio message during the absence of audio input.
4. The mobile communications device of claim 1 ,
wherein the first bit rate is lower than the second bit rate.
5. The mobile communications device of claim 1 further configured to:
receive the audio message at the mobile communications device.
6. The mobile communications device of claim 5 further configured to:
convert the audio message into a digital form.
7. The mobile communications device of claim 6 further configured to:
save the digital form of the audio message in a memory.
8. The mobile communications device of claim 7 further configured to:
provide the digital form of the audio message to a transmitter configured to provide the audio message.
9. The mobile communications device of claim 1 ,
wherein the first call and/or the second call is a voice call.
10. A method for controlling a mobile communications device, the method comprising:
receiving a first call based on a first subscription of a mobile communications device;
receiving a second call based on a second subscription of the mobile communications device;
suspending the first call on a local hold;
switching to the second call from the first call;
detecting an absence of audio input to the mobile communications device on the second call;
providing an audio message at a first bit rate to the first call while the second call is active;
wherein speech for the second call is provided at a second bit rate; and
providing the audio message during the absence of audio input.
11. The method of claim 10 ,
wherein the first bit rate is lower than the second bit rate.
12. The method of claim 10 ,
wherein the first bit rate is for an audio codec.
13. The method of claim 10 ,
wherein the second bit rate is for an audio codec.
14. The method of claim 10 further comprising:
receiving the audio message at the mobile communications device.
15. The method of claim 14 further comprising:
converting the audio message into a digital form.
16. The method of claim 15 further comprising:
saving the digital form of the audio message in a memory.
17. The method of claim 16 further comprising:
providing the digital form of the audio message to a transmitter configured to provide the audio message.
18. The method of claim 16 ,
wherein the first call and/or the second call is a voice call.
19. A mobile communications device comprising a radio processing circuit and a baseband processing circuit adapted to interact with the radio processing circuit, the mobile communications device configured to:
convert an audio message into a digital form;
store the digital form of the audio message in a memory of the mobile communications device
receive a first call for a first subscription of the mobile communications device;
receive a second call for a second subscription of the mobile communications device;
pause the first call on a local hold;
switch to the second call from the first call; and
provide the stored digital form of the audio message to a transmitter of the mobile communications device that is configured to provide the audio message to the first call while the second call is active;
wherein speech for the second call is provided at a second bit rate and the audio message provided to the first call is provided at a first bit rate lower than the second bit rate.
20. The mobile communications device of claim 19 ,
wherein the first call and/or the second call is a voice call.
