Simultaneous voice and data communication over a wireless network
First Claim
1. A method in a wireless device for communicating data over a voice channel, comprising:
- establishing an audio communication between a wireless device and a second wireless device across a voice channel, wherein the voice channel comprises at least a wireless voice communications channel between the wireless device and the second wireless device;
providing a user interface for a user to use the wireless device for communicating data between the wireless device and the second wireless device across the voice channel;
detecting the activation of the user interface by the user; and
communicating over the voice channel a first data between at least the wireless device and the second wireless device substantially during wireless audio communication between the wireless device and second wireless device over the voice channel.

Abstract
A system, method and computer readable medium for communicating data over a voice channel on a wireless device (300) is disclosed. The method on a wireless device (300) includes establishing an audio connection with a second device and providing an interface (326) for a user for sending data to the second device. The method further includes detecting the activation of the interface (326) by the user and sending a first data to the second device during the audio connection with the second device, wherein the quality of the audio connection is not affected by the sending. The method further includes receiving a second data from the second device, the second data being associated with the first data and preferably synchronizing the first data with the second data. Information, such as Vcard information, can be wirelessly exchanged between devices communicating data over a voice channel during an audio connection.

23. A wireless communication device for communicating data on a voice channel, comprising:
-
a processor for establishing an audio connection with a second communication device;
an indicator, communicatively coupled with the processor, for indicating to a user of the wireless communication device; and
a memory, communicatively coupled with the processor, for storing a first information file and a second information file, and wherein the processor is for sending first data to the second communication device, the first data relating to the first information file, and wherein the processor is further for receiving second data from the second communication device and is for storing the received second data in the memory as the second information file, the first data and the second data having been wirelessly transmitted over the voice channel during the audio connection with the second communication device, and wherein the indicator is for indicating that at least the second information file has been created in the memory. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26)
