ELECTRONIC DEVICE DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEMS AND METHODS
First Claim
1. A method of evaluating a wireless communication device using a computing system, wherein the computing system is physically distinct from the wireless communication device, the method performed by the computing system and comprising:
- establishing a data connection between the wireless communication device and the computing system;
receiving device-specific information associated with the wireless communication device, wherein the device-specific information includes at least one identifier associated with the wireless communication device;
providing the device-specific information to a server over a network;
receiving, from the server in response to providing the device-specific information to the server, additional device-specific information associated with evaluating the wireless communication device; and
displaying, on the computing system in response to receiving the additional device-specific information, diagnostic-related information and a representation of the additional device-specific information.
