20100184413 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING AUTOMATIC INTERNATIONAL AND LOCAL CALL DIALING IN A MOBILE COMMUNICATION TERMINAL - A method and apparatus for providing automatic international and local call dialing in a mobile communication terminal. Country identification information is received from a network in which the mobile communication terminal is currently located. When a request for an outgoing is received from a user, a country code corresponding to the received country identification information is extracted, and the extracted country code is compared with a country code included in a phone number for the outgoing call. Based on the comparison it is determined whether the outgoing call is an international or local call. The phone number is then changed in accordance with the outgoing call being the international or local call. | 07-22-2010 |
20110025720 | DATA SCROLL METHOD AND APPARATUS - Disclosed is a method and apparatus for scrolling data displayed on a screen, dividing a display region as a multiple of predefined weighted areas and setting a scroll velocity weight corresponding to each of the multiple of weighted areas when there is scrollable undisplayed data, after displaying data on the display region corresponding to execution of an application. Scroll velocity weight is detected corresponding to the initially produced point of the scroll input when a scroll input is sensed t, and an actual movement distance is detected corresponding to the scroll input in real-time until the scroll input ends. A scroll movement distance is calculating in proportion to the detected scroll velocity weight and the actual movement distance, and the data is displayed by shifting the data in a proceeding direction of the scroll input by the calculated scroll movement distance. | 02-03-2011 |
