Synchronization of mobile terminals
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- displaying a query for user input regarding activation of multiple-subscriber-identity-module (“
multi-SIM”
) automatic synchronization;
in response to user input indicating that multi-SIM automatic synchronization should be activated, displaying a query for user input regarding one or more data types for which multi-SIM automatic synchronization should be performed, the one or more data types including incoming calls;
sending from a first mobile device to at least one additional mobile device a request to activate multi-SIM automatic synchronization on the at least one additional mobile device for the one or more data types for which multi-SIM automatic synchronization should be performed;
upon receiving notification of acceptance of the request to activate multi-SIM automatic synchronization on the at least one additional mobile device, activating multi-SIM automatic synchronization on the first mobile device; and
in response to the activating, sending from the first mobile device to the at least one additional mobile device information about an answered incoming call instructing the at least one additional mobile device to update one or more logs to indicate that the call was answered and to remove one or more notifications indicating that the call is a missed call.

Abstract
Embodiments are directed to activation and performance of multiple-subscriber-identity-module (“multi-SIM”) automatic synchronization of mobile devices. A user may specify one or more data types for which multi-SIM automatic synchronization should be performed, which may include incoming calls, sent text messages, and the like. Information about an answered incoming call may be sent from a first mobile device to at least one additional mobile device so that the at least one mobile device may update at least one call log and may remove at least one notification for the call accordingly. When multi-SIM automatic synchronization is performed for sent text messages, the first mobile device may send a copy of the sent text message to the at least one additional mobile device so that the received copy may be stored in the sent messages folder of the at least one additional mobile device.
