Abstract

A method and apparatus of modifying user content data on a mobile station are disclosed. One example method of displaying customized content data on a mobile station may include receiving the content data at the mobile station, and modifying the content data based on predefined viewing preferences of the user. The modified content may then be displayed on a display interface of the mobile station allowing the user to view the content based on their specified preferences.

Claims

1. A method, comprising:

modifying content data at a mobile station based on predefined viewing preferences of a user stored in a remote location server, wherein the mobile station and the remote location server are communicably coupled to each other;

wherein modifying the content data comprises;

preparing the content data to accommodate at least one operating parameter of the mobile station; and

performing at least one of resizing images included in the content data and modifying text formatting of the content data based on the predefined viewing preferences of the user.

2. The method of claim 1, comprising displaying the modified content data on a display interface of the mobile station.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the modifying operation comprises modifying an original hyper text markup language (HTML) code of the content data.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the modifying operation comprises resizing images of the content data.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the modifying operation comprises converting a file type of the images of the content data.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the modifying operation comprises modifying text formatting of the content data based on the predefined viewing preferences of the user.

7. The method of claim 1, comprising accessing the viewing preferences from a memory of the mobile station when the content data is received at the mobile station.

8. The method of claim 1, comprising transmitting the viewing preferences and the content data to the mobile station in a same message.

9. An apparatus, comprising:

memory; and

a processor configured to;

modify content data based on predefined view preferences of a user stored in a remote location server, wherein the apparatus and the remote location server are communicably coupled to each other;

wherein the content being modified comprises;

the content data configured to accommodate at least one operating parameter of the apparatus; and

the processor configured to perform at least one of resize images included in the content data and modify text format of the content data based on the predefined viewing preferences of the user.

10. The apparatus of claim 9, comprising a display configured to display the modified content data.

11. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the content data being modified comprises an original hyper text markup language (HTML) code of the content data being modified.

12. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the content data being modified comprises images of the content data being resized.

13. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the content data being modified comprises a file type of the images of the content data being converted.

14. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the content data being modified comprises text format of the content data being modified based on the predefined view preferences of the user.

15. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the viewing preferences are accessed from the memory when the content data is received.

16. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the view preferences and the content data are transmitted to the apparatus in a same message.

17. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium configured to store a computer program that when executed causes a processor to perform:

modifying content data at a mobile station based on predefined viewing preferences of a user stored in a remote location server, wherein the mobile station and the remote location server are communicably coupled to each other;

wherein modifying the content data comprises;

preparing the content data to accommodate at least one operating parameter of the mobile station; and

performing at least one of resizing images included in the content data and modifying text formatting of the content data based on the predefined viewing preferences of the user.

18. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 17, wherein the processor is configured to display the modified content data on a display of the mobile station.

19. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 17, wherein the modify operation comprises at least one of:

modifying an original hyper text markup language (HTML) code of the content data, resizing images of the content data, converting a file type of the images of the content data, and modifying text formatting of the content data based on the predefined viewing preferences of the user.

20. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 17, wherein the processor is configured to access the viewing preferences from a memory of the mobile station when the content data is received.
