Method and apparatus for combining properties in mobile station
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- establishing a connection between a first mobile station and a second mobile station,transferring speech data or message data representing a first effect for stimulating an auditory or visual sense via the established connection as a ringing command;
transferring data compiled from vibration effects memory, flash patterns memory or graphic objects memory for producing a second effect for stimulating a visual or tactile sense by the same established connection as the ringing command using a signaling message associated therewith,producing the first effect for stimulating an auditory or visual sense in the second mobile station, while maintaining said connection, using a first means of expression comprising at least one element selected from the group of a loudspeaker and a display, andproducing the second effect stimulating a visual or tactile sense in the second mobile station, while maintaining said connection, using a second means of expression comprising at least one element selected from the group of a vibration unit, at least one light unit and the display, which is selected differently from the elements of the first means of expression, and wherein said second effect for stimulating a visual or tactile sense comprises a lighting effect or a vibration effect,wherein the first effect for stimulating an auditory or visual sense and the second effect stimulating a visual or tactile sense is activated so as to be presented as a consequence of a certain user action in the second mobile terminal.

Abstract
The invention relates to the combining of mobile station properties. In addition the invention relates to the controlling in a desired manner of mobile station properties. The object of the invention is to give a mobile station a more stylish and youthful general appearance by enhancing the chances of the user to personalize his mobile station and by making the methods of communication between mobile stations more versatile. According to the invention it is possible to produce and present to the user various properties perceptible by the different senses, e.g. text, graphics, sound, vibration and/or illumination. These properties can be associated with each other to form effect entities. These effect entities can be transmitted to another mobile station during a conventional connection. In the receiving mobile station the effect entities are presented using different means of expression than the communication data proper.
