Appendix - Mobile Devices and Supported Formats
This list includes the mobile devices which can handle so-called Real Music ringtones and media files of different types. New phones will be added on a regular basis.
Note: if you could not find your phone model in the list, you can consult your mobile phone manual or manufacturer web site to find out whether it supports some media formats and has got Bluetooth or Infrared communication capabilities.
The columns Bluetooth and Infrared indicate the transfer possibilities available for each model:
- "+" means that the transfer possibility exists;
- "-" under Bluetooth or Infrared means that this transfer method is not available;
Bluetooth is an industrial specification for wireless personal area networks, also known as IEEE 802.15.1. Bluetooth provides a way to connect and exchange information between devices like personal digital assistants (PDAs), mobile phones, laptops, PCs, printers and digital cameras via a secure, low-cost, globally available short range radio frequency.
Bluetooth is a radio standard primarily designed for low power consumption, with a short range (power class dependent: 1 meter, 10 meters, 100 meters) and with a low-cost transceiver microchip in each device.
Infrared data transmission is also employed in short-range communication among computer peripherals and personal digital assistants or mobile phones. These devices usually conform to standards published by IrDA, the Infrared Data Association. Remote controls and IrDA devices use infrared light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to emit infrared radiation which is focused by a plastic lens into a narrow beam. The beam is modulated, i.e. switched on and off, to encode the data. The receiver uses a silicon photodiode to convert the infrared radiation to an electric current. It responds only to the rapidly pulsing signal created by the transmitter, and filters out slowly changing infrared radiation from ambient light. Infrared communications are useful for indoor use in areas of high population density. Infrared does not penetrate walls and so does not interfere with other devices in adjoining rooms.
Infrared is the most common way for remote controls to command appliances.
The USB mobile devices it can communicate with the computer in the following ways:
- Devices that represent USB Mass Storage Device Class (MSC or UMS) are seen as a removable drive in the system and some of them as a fixed drive.
- Devices representing USB MTP Device Class use Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) supported by Microsoft Windows Media Player 10 and 11.
- Devices that use Microsoft ActiveSync for communication, i.e. mobile phones, smartphones and PDAs or pocket PCs with Microsoft Windows Mobile or Microsoft Windows CE installed. For these devices support you need to have a personal computer running Windows 2000 SP4, Windows 2003, Windows XP with ActiveSync program v4.5 or later installed or running Windows Vista with Windows Mobile Device Center v6 or later installed.
Depending on the communication type used different file types might be available for upload to the same devices.
