Description

OS: Symbian 8.1 or later version
Language: C++

Comment: We have a working alpha implementation of the code that works on a Nokia N71 device (have not tested on other Symbian devices) that can provide as reference.

Project description:
This Symbian application takes control of the mobile phone and enforces parental control rules downloaded into the phone via a data connection (GPRS, UMTS or WiFi) using an NTEC proprietary protocol.
Only authorised user can stop the application by inputing a PIN code.

Non-authorised users must not be able to stop the application (ej. by re-starting handset or any other means).

The application controls:

- Time frames that the user can play JAVA games
- Time frames that the user can use COMM ports (Bluetooth, etc)
- Time frames that the user can use WAP / WEB browser.
- Time frames that each group of contacts can call or be called
- Credits per service, period and contact group (e.g. credit limitation per day for voice calls / messaging / data, credit control is applicable to some groups [e.g. friends] but not to others [e.g. family]).
- Activity reporting: when active, the handset will report activity (number, type [voice, data], time and duration for incoming / outgoing calls; number / time and type [SMS, MMS, etc] for incoming / outgoing messages, time and volume for data connections) every night or when the log gets full (if that happens before the time set for reporting).
- Times at which handset is ON and OFF (functionally OFF, not necessarily OFF power).
- Time frames at which vibration mode is activated
- Time frames at which silent mode is activated
- Permission to allow user to turn the handset OFF (physically)
- Usage of profiles: a profile is a configuration that applies to certain period (e.g. profile 1 used on weekdays and profile 2 on weekends). The application must allow for up to three profiles to be stored and used depending on day of week.

The NTEC protocol also allows for personalization via content of:

- Phone book: assign ring tones and images to individual contacts and to groups of contacts.
- Handset: assign background image, default ringtone and theme to handset
- Games and applications: download and install games and applications.

While not a formal requirement, we would also like to application to be "self-upgradable". I.e. the applications should be able, when requested by the server, to download a new version of itself, install it and remove itself from the device.

For this development, NTEC will provide our existing C++ Code (Symbian 8.1) and the NTEC protocol. These two are confidential information that require signing an NDA.

The application must work with Symbian v8.1 and newer handsets .

We as Tycom Solutions have expertise in Series 60 application design and J2mE application and game designing. WE also have huge amount of expertise in porting of application over Symbian and J2me platforms. Please do let us know if there is any kind of work that we can help you with so as to maintain a long term relation. We are a Chandigarh Based Company. We are sending you details of the projects that we have worked upon. We will be able to send you the screenshots of the project later only. We have the expertise on Series 60 and UIQ phones. We have customized the provided UI by Symbian, like lists and menus (added feature of getting a background image in the list and menu, added images with every list item and menu as well...) We are very much comfortable with the multimedia framework like recording and playing of audio and video files, interjections especially in Series 60 phones. We have also worked on communication through external server, using socket and http. Moreover, we also have a huge experience in C/C++ code porting over the Symbian platform. ------------------------------ ------------------------------------- EXAMPLE PROJECTS (It is only a brief description. Screen shots and details of the project undertaken can be provided, if required.) ------------------------------------------------------------------- PROJECT 1: A Symbian signed and Nokia attested application was made successfully. It was a multiview application containing recorder and player for making the interjection of sound possible during live calls. Sound tones were encrypted so that it could be played only by the player application. PROJECT 2: There was a basic C/C++ code written which was developed for ARM and this code was also successfully running on ARM development board. As this code had to take the support of the PC to send its request to the PC port and then via internet it was been sent on the external server. We removed the communication part of this basic code and changed them with Symbian APIs (socket and http) so that they can work over the phones. Following are the areas of development that we are handling for J2ME: Single player games Network based multi player games Network based applications Standalone applications EXAMPLE PROJECTS: ================ GAMES: We have developed almost 50 games in following genres: * Arcade * Board * Sports * Puzzle The UI Design for each of the game is developed in-house. Messenger application: Developed a messenger application where you can login to most of the know portals such as MSN, YAHOO, REDIFFMAIL, AOL, etc. UI Interface has also been designed in a better way for this application by us. Voice mail application: With this application you can compose, send and receive your voice mail messages just like you receive you SMS in a particular inbox. You can retrieve you voice mail messages in inbox and use all the other features like outbox, send etc just like you have in a normal SMS feature in you phone. Advanced voice message reminder: An advanced voice message reminder application where you can set a voice reminder which can be played at the time you set for it. Just like an alarm. You can your own voice recorded in 3 different format to be played. Symbian Antivirus Software: ANTIVIRUS provides automatic protection from malicious threats that may be received via bluetooth, infrared, data cable, mms, sms, email and network data traffic. Checks will also be made on files located in the file system as they are modified. A potential threat will be isolated immediately and the user will be notified. The application will also periodically perform system scans in the background, the timing of these can be configured by the user and will be enabled by default. Updates to the definitions can be provided within three days of finding a new threat. The malicious software must be tested and observed, then removal instructions can be added to the definitions database and uploaded to the Mobile Services Hub. Generally, software updates will not be required to handle the protection against new threats. SCREENSAVERS AND WALLPAPERS We also do design wallpapers and screensaver for all series phone. There are around 30 odd wallpapers and animated wallpapers based on different themes. Porting: All these application and around 50 odd games that we have developed have been ported for Nokia, Sony Erricson and Motorola phones. Please do let us know if you require any further information or details of any kind. Waiting for a positive response… -- With Regards, (Roy)

I will design the application as per your requirement. Looking at your project statement following is my understanding. I have got more than 11 years of experience in the field of Telecom and Software. We will develop the applications which will change the ringtone and background image based on unknown or known clients. If some one is giving calls 2nd or 3rd times ...then another set of ringtone and Background image will play.
