Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To expect advertisement fees from companies as income by making the sound source of a call-in ringing tone for a portable telephone sound with which distribution is performed to other telephones. SOLUTION: When a telephone user makes a contract with a company holding this system, an access number corresponding to a telephone number is given and the user calls a service base of the company holding the system and can fetch a signal with which a contracted program can be activated according to guidance to a self-telephone. The call-in ringing tone of initialization is simultaneously stored in a RAM storage element 1. After that, the call-in ringing tone of the initialization is rung as calling tone every time an incoming call comes. In this case, several kinds of contracted contents are made possible to be selected in calling the service base and can be set for, e.g. an advertisement message for a company and a commercial song. The contents of services can also be selected in making the contract. For instance, the voice of a prescribed famous person is made to be alarming tone, and the voice of a friend is also fetched during speech communication to be used as alarming tone.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An owner of a telephone makes a contract with a telephone company to receive system services, and the telephone company delivers various messages as ring tones.

[0005] Various messages delivered to the user's telephone are stored in the internal device of the telephone as ring tones, and become a sound source from the next time so that they can be used as ring tones.

[0006]

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a portable telephone for carrying out the present invention. When the telephone user contracts with the system holder, an access number corresponding to the telephone number is provided, and the user calls the service base of the system holder and sends a signal that can activate the contract program according to the guidance. Can be picked up on the phone. At the same time, the default ringtone is stored in the 1RAM storage element of FIG. Thereafter, each time a call is received, the default ringtone sounds as a ringing tone.

[0007] When calling a service base, the content of the contract can be selected from several types, for example, it can be set to a corporate advertisement message or a commercial song.

A device that stores an incoming voice or signal as a ringtone or an alarm sound. A device in which the stored voice or signal can be driven as a ringtone or as a wake-up sound. A function that permits a program with a command signal from the service base. Function to release service by command signal from service base.

A program for executing a service is pre-loaded in the 2ROM of FIG. Also, this program has a function of automatically canceling the system service period in which the clock information of the telephone body is always sent to the CPU arithmetic element 3 in FIG.

FIG. 2 is a configuration diagram of a service base for implementing the present invention. The signal transmitted by the subscriber is received by the antenna 4 in FIG. 2 and rejects the access number used as the password, enters the circuit section 5 in FIG. 2 for determining connection, and then to the CPU 6 in FIG. If the entered telephone numbers match, the program in the ROM 7 in FIG. 2 is selected and transmitted as a command signal to the subscriber's telephone to start the service.
