Abstract
A system, apparatus and method for remotely changing a specific function of a mobile communication terminal are disclosed. Function Change information having a specific format is generated in response to a function change request and the function change information is inserted in a control message sent to a terminal. The terminal receives the control message, extracts the function change information and changes an indicated specific function according to the function change information. Remotely changing a specific function of a terminal with little inconvenience to a user is facilitated.
