Description

Lost reporting method of portable terminal {LOST REPORTING METHOD FOR HAND-HELD TERMINAL}

The present invention relates to a portable terminal, and more particularly, to a loss reporting method.

With the development of information and communication, the spread of mobile phones, for example, mobile phones, has been expanded.

By the way, if the current mobile phone is lost, the user finds the phone number of the service network to which the user subscribes and makes a loss report through a receptionist or an automatic answering function or via the Internet.

Accordingly, when the acquirer reports the lost mobile phone to the service network, the user is notified of the lost mobile phone so that the user can recover the lost mobile phone.

However, in the related art, since a loss reporting process is complicated and a time until completion of a loss report is delayed, there is a problem in that a learner can abuse a lost mobile phone.

That is, in the prior art, when a lost terminal is reported, a phone number of the operator is found and a phone call is made to the lost number through a counselor or an automatic response or lost through the Internet. There is a problem that can cause misuse of others.

Therefore, in order to improve the conventional problem, if a predetermined letter, number, symbol, etc. is input following the phone number of the lost terminal, the present invention recognizes the lost report as the lost terminal and receives the lost information. It is an object of the present invention to provide a loss reporting method of a portable terminal which is designed to transmit and display loss information on a user screen of a corresponding terminal.

1 is a signal flow diagram illustrating a mobile phone lost processing in the embodiment of the present invention.

2 is an operation flowchart showing a mobile phone loss processing process in the server server in the embodiment of the present invention.

Figure 3 is an exemplary view showing a user screen of the lost terminal in an embodiment of the present invention.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention comprises the steps of storing a user's screen in case of loss in a user's own terminal in advance, when the user loses a terminal, accessing a corresponding service network, and performing a loss report, and a business operator. If the server authenticates in response to the loss report and is authenticated as a legitimate user, receiving the loss report and transmitting the lost information to the terminal, and the terminal previously stored by the user in response to the lost information. And displaying the user screen of the city.

The loss report is characterized in that the terminal telephone number and the predetermined letters, numbers, symbols, etc. are successively inputted.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in the flowchart of operation of FIG. 2, when there is a call, it is determined whether a loss process is performed by checking whether a predetermined letter, number, symbol, etc., which are pre-appointed after the telephone number of the corresponding terminal is input. And a step of requesting a social security number and a password to a user for valid user authentication when specific letters, numbers, symbols, etc. are input following the terminal telephone number; and the social security number and password entered by the user are registered in advance. If the user is authenticated as a legitimate user in accordance with the social security number and password, the lost terminal is notified to the user and the lost information is included in the paging message and sent to the terminal. Even if the user displays the preset lost user screen, Configure it.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, assuming that the terminal is a mobile phone, a signal flow chart showing the mobile phone loss processing process of FIG. 1 and the lost terminal of FIG. When described with reference to an example of the user screen of the following.

First of all, if a user loses a mobile phone, the user inputs the phone number of the mobile phone, eg, '0191234567' and the letters, numbers, and symbols, such as '* #', pre-determined by the loss report. Enter 0191234567 * # '.

At this time, the operator-side server proceeds with the general call processing process when the symbol '* #' is not entered in the phone number '0191234567' of the mobile phone.

On the contrary, if the symbol '* #' is entered consecutively in the phone number '0191234567' of the lost mobile phone, the server of the operator recognizes the lost report of the mobile phone and requests the resident registration number and password to the user.

Thereafter, when the user inputs the resident registration number and password, the operator-side server compares whether the user matches the resident registration number and password registered in advance.

If the resident registration number and the password do not match, the operator-side server requests the user to input the resident registration number and the password for a predetermined number of times until the resident registration number and the password match.

In this case, even if the resident registration number and the password have been input for a predetermined number of times, if the registered resident registration number and the password do not match, the operator side server notifies the user of the loss signal processing failure and terminates all operations.

If the social security number and password match, the server of the operator side receives the loss report for the corresponding mobile phone and notifies the user of the completion of the loss report, and transmits the lost information to the mobile phone.

Accordingly, the lost mobile phone displays a user screen example for displaying a lost mobile phone preset by the user as shown in the example of FIG.

Therefore, by eliminating the time delay required for the loss report and the reception process when the mobile phone is lost, it is possible to prevent damage to the use of the lost mobile phone by others.

As described in detail above, in the present invention, when a predetermined number of letters, numbers, etc. are input in advance to a phone number of a lost terminal, a process such as checking a phone number of a carrier for reporting a loss or using the Internet for loss reporting is performed. There is no need to reduce the loss reporting time and prevent the misuse of the lost terminal.
