- embodiments of the present disclosure provide a solution, that is, reading status of a short message is fed back, so that the user at the sending end can know in time whether the short message has already been read to improve communication efficiency.
- Step 201 send a message to be read to a receiving end, where the message to be read includes at least message content, a receiving end number, and a message number used to identify the message to be read.
- the message to be read in each embodiment of the present disclosure uses a short message as an example, and certainly is not limited to the short message.
- the embodiments of the present disclosure may also be applicable to a media message in another form.
- the message application client at a sending end After receiving message content edited by a user, the message application client at a sending end encapsulates the message content into a short message according to a specified transmission protocol, where the short message may include the message content and a receiving end number, for example, a mobile phone number of a user at the receiving end, and may further include a sending end number, for example, information such as a mobile phone number of a user at the sending end.
- the short message may include the message content and a receiving end number, for example, a mobile phone number of a user at the receiving end, and may further include a sending end number, for example, information such as a mobile phone number of a user at the sending end.
- each message sent by the sending end to each receiving end is numbered, that is, a message number is allocated to each short message sent by the sending end to each receiving end, for example, “001”, “002”, and the like, and each message number may be allocated according to a sequence of sending time. Specifically, message numbers are allocated, in a time sequence, to all short messages sent by sending end A to receiving end B, for example, message numbers of two time-adjacent A ⁇ B short messages may be “001” and “002” respectively.
- message numbers are also allocated, in a time sequence, to all short messages sent by sending end A to receiving end C, for example, message numbers of two time-adjacent A ⁇ C short messages may be “001” and “002” respectively. It may be understood that although message numbers of short messages sent to different receiving ends may be repeated, two short messages with the same message number may also be differentiated because the receiving ends have different receiving end numbers.
- the sending end sends the short message to the receiving end by using a network element device.
- the sending end sends the short message in the following two different sending manners, which specifically include the following.
- a device at the sending end and a device at the receiving end can communicate over the Internet
- the two iphone 4 mobile phones can send a short message over the Internet.
- this short message is sent by using a path different from a current path of sending a short message.
- This short message is not sent by means of a short message center on a mobile communications network, but is forwarded by using a message server on the Internet.
- the network element device is a message server of a device on the Internet.
- the network element device is a short message center on the mobile communications network.
- Step 202 receive a feedback message returned by a server, where the feedback message includes the receiving end number and the message number, and the feedback message is sent by the server after the server receives a response message that is sent by the receiving end and carries the receiving end number and the message number, where the response message is sent by the receiving end to the server after the receiving end confirms that the message to be read has been read.
- the foregoing network element After receiving the short message that carries the message number from the sending end, the foregoing network element sends the short message to the receiving end; after a message application client of the receiving end knows, by means of detection, that the user has read the short message, the message application client of the receiving end may send a response message to the server over, for example, an Internet Protocol (IP) network, and carry the receiving end number and the message number in the response message to notify the server that the short message sent by the sending end whose destination number is the receiving end number and whose number is the message number has already been read.
- IP Internet Protocol
- the server may also send a feedback message to the sending end over the IP network, and carry the receiving end number and the message number in the feedback message to indicate that the short message previously sent by the sending end whose destination number is the receiving end number and whose number is the message number has already been read.
- a feedback message to the sending end over the IP network, and carry the receiving end number and the message number in the feedback message to indicate that the short message previously sent by the sending end whose destination number is the receiving end number and whose number is the message number has already been read.
- Step 203 change, according to the feedback message, status of the message to be read corresponding to the message number and in a session list corresponding to the receiving end number to read status.
- the sending end may change status of the short message corresponding to the message number and in the session list corresponding to the receiving end number to read status.
- each short message has different status at different phases.
- the status of the short message is “sent”; after receiving the feedback message from the server, the status of the short message is accordingly changed to “read”. In this way, the user at the sending end can visually see the different status of the short message by using a display and clearly know whether the short message has been read.
- reading status of a message to be read is fed back, so that a user at a sending end can know in time whether the short message has already been read, which improves communication efficiency and enhances user awareness of the reading status of the message to be read.
- the server after receiving a response message from the receiving end, the server knows that the short message has already been read, and may send, directly over the IP network, a feedback message that carries the receiving end number and the message number; after receiving the feedback message, the sending end may consider by default that the short message has already been read.
- the server may also use other notification manners, for example, the server includes a message status code in the feedback message sent to the sending end, where the message status code is used to identify whether the message to be read has already been read.
- the message status code may represent different meanings by using different preset values, for example, “1” indicates that the message has already been read, and “0” indicates that the message has not been read.
- the server After receiving the response message from the receiving end, the server knows that the short message has already been read, and may send a feedback message over the IP network, where the feedback message not only includes the receiving end number and the message number but also the message status code with the value “1”. After receiving the feedback message, the sending end may parse the value of the message status code to know that the short message has already been read.
- FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a method for reading and notifying a message according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 3 , the method includes the following.
- Step 301 receive a response message that is sent by a receiving end and carries a receiving end number and a message number, where the response message is sent by the receiving end after the receiving end confirms that a message to be read sent by a sending end to the receiving end has been read; and the message to be read includes at least message content, the receiving end number, and the message number used to identify the message to be read.
- the receiving end After the receiving end receives a message to be read that carries the message number from the sending end, for example, a short message, the receiving end reads the short message; after the receiving end knows, by means of detection, that the short message has been read, the receiving end may send a response message to a server over, for example, an IP network, and carry the receiving end number and the message number in the response message to notify the server that the short message sent by the sending end whose destination number is the receiving end number and whose number is the message number has already been read.
- a server for example, an IP network
- Step 302 send a feedback message to the sending end, where the feedback message includes the receiving end number and the message number, so that the sending end changes, according to the feedback message, status information of a message corresponding to the message number and in a session list corresponding to the receiving end number to read status.
- the server may also send a feedback message to the sending end over the IP network, and carry the receiving end number and the message number in the feedback message to indicate that the short message previously sent by the sending end whose destination number is the receiving end number and whose number is the message number has already been read.
- the sending end may change status of the short message corresponding to the message number and in the session list corresponding to the receiving end number to “read” status. In this way, a user at the sending end can visually see different status of the short message by using a display, and clearly know whether the short message has already been read.
- reading status of a message to be read is fed back, so that a user at a sending end can know in time whether the short message has already been read, which improves communication efficiency and enhances user awareness of the reading status of the message to be read.
- the server after receiving a response message from the receiving end, the server knows that the short message has already been read, and may send, directly over the IP network, a feedback message that carries the receiving end number and the message number; after receiving the feedback message, the sending end may consider by default that the short message has already been read.
- the server may also use other notification manners, for example, the server includes a message status code in the feedback message sent to the sending end, where the message status code is used to identify whether the message to be read has already been read.
- the message status code may represent different meanings by using different preset values, for example, “1” indicates that the message has already been read, and “0” indicates that the message has not been read.
- the server After receiving the response message from the receiving end, the server knows that the short message has already been read, and may send a feedback message over the IP network, where the feedback message includes not only the receiving end number and the message number but also the message status code with the value “1”. After receiving the feedback message, the sending end may parse the value of the message status code to know that the short message has already been read.
- FIG. 4 is a flowchart of a method for receiving a message according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 4 , the method includes the following.
- Step 401 receive a message to be read from a sending end, where the message to be read includes at least message content, a receiving end number, and a message number used to identify the message to be read.
- Step 402 after the message to be read has been read, send a response message to a server, where the response message includes the receiving end number and the message number, so that the server sends a feedback message that carries the receiving end number and the message number to the sending end and the sending end changes, according to the feedback message, status information of a message corresponding to the message number and in a session list corresponding to the receiving end number to read status.
- the receiving end After the receiving end receives a message to be read, for example, a short message that is sent by the sending end by using the foregoing network element device and knows, by means of detection, that the short message has been read, the receiving end may send a response message to the server over an IP network, and carry the receiving end number and the message number in the response message to notify the server that the short message sent by the sending end whose destination number is the receiving end number and whose number is the message number has already been read.
- a message to be read for example, a short message that is sent by the sending end by using the foregoing network element device and knows, by means of detection, that the short message has been read
- the receiving end may send a response message to the server over an IP network, and carry the receiving end number and the message number in the response message to notify the server that the short message sent by the sending end whose destination number is the receiving end number and whose number is the message number has already been read.
- reading status of a message to be read is fed back, so that a user at a sending end can know in time whether the short message has already been read, which improves communication efficiency and enhances user awareness of the reading status of the message to be read.
- the message number may be carried by using the following two manners.
- the first carrying manner is an implicit carrying manner, that is, the message number is carried by using an idle field in a message header of the message to be read.
- a user data header (UDH) in SMS specifications is extended to add a message number to a sent message.
- FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of carrying a message number in a UDH header according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
- the sending end carries a message number in a message header of each short message, where the message number uses a reserved field in a UDH identifier in the SMS specifications.
- a length 0x2 of a message number is filled in IDEDLa, and a message number (for example 000 to 255 and 0x00 to0xFF) is filled in IEDa to identify different messages.
- the message number for example, 257, it may start from 1 once again.
- messages are numbered according to a sequence of sending time. In different sessions, the numbers are not mutually affected. The sending end needs to save message numbers of all sessions.
- the second carrying manner is an explicit carrying manner, that is, the message number is set in message content, and the message number is separated from text content of the message content by using a predetermined symbol.
- the explicit carrying manner provided in this embodiment is different from the foregoing implicit carrying manner in that an encoded message number is carried in the message content, and the message number is visible in the message content.
- a predetermined symbol for example, “ ⁇ ” is added to the tail of the message content, which is a special symbol used to identify a start of the message number.
- a piece of message content is “Hello, long time no see! ⁇ 001”, where “Hello, long time no see!” is content manually edited by the user and “ ⁇ 001” is content automatically added by the client to the tail of the message content.
- the predetermined symbol “ ⁇ ” is followed by a three-digit message number from 000 to 255, which identifies different messages. After the message number 255 is used, the message number starts from 000 once again.
- the message to be read is numbered according to a sequence of transmission time.
- FIG. 6 is a flowchart of an embodiment of a method for sending a message according to the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 6 , the method includes the following.
- Step 601 terminal A sends a short message that carries a message number “001” to a short message center of an operator, where a receiver of the short message is terminal B.
- All short messages sent by terminal A to terminal B may be numbered according to sending time, which ranges from “001” to “257”. When there are 257 short messages, the short message may be numbered starting from “001” again.
- a message number may be carried by using an idle field in a message header of the short message. The message number may also be set in short message content of the short message, and the message number is separated from the short message content by using a predetermined symbol.
- Step 602 the short message center of the operator sends the short message to terminal B.
- Step 603 after a user of the receiver reads the short message, a short message application client of terminal B returns a response message to a server, where the response message carries a phone number of terminal B and a message number “001” of the short message.
- interactions between the server and terminal A and terminal B are implemented over the IP protocol.
- Step 604 the server then sends a feedback message that carries the phone number of terminal B and the message number to terminal A.
- Terminal A searches for a short message numbered “001” in a session list, identifies the short message in “read” status, and displays the short message.
- Terminal A may only display a short message status updated at a most recent time segment. Assuming that status of a short message numbered “001” is “read” and status of a short message numbered “002” is “sent”, the status of the short message numbered “001” is not displayed after the short message numbered “002” has been read, and only the status, that is, the “read” status, of the short message numbered “002” is displayed, The rest may be deduced in the same manner. When some short messages are read and some short messages are not read, the “read” status is displayed for a message that has been read most recently. The “sent” status is displayed behind the last one short message which is not read but is already sent.

-
FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a method for sending a message according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown inFIG. 2 , the method includes the following. -
Step 201, send a message to be read to a receiving end, where the message to be read includes at least message content, a receiving end number, and a message number used to identify the message to be read. - The message to be read in each embodiment of the present disclosure uses a short message as an example, and certainly is not limited to the short message. The embodiments of the present disclosure may also be applicable to a media message in another form.
- After receiving message content edited by a user, the message application client at a sending end encapsulates the message content into a short message according to a specified transmission protocol, where the short message may include the message content and a receiving end number, for example, a mobile phone number of a user at the receiving end, and may further include a sending end number, for example, information such as a mobile phone number of a user at the sending end.
- To accordingly identify which short message has been read by the receiving end, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, each message sent by the sending end to each receiving end is numbered, that is, a message number is allocated to each short message sent by the sending end to each receiving end, for example, “001”, “002”, and the like, and each message number may be allocated according to a sequence of sending time. Specifically, message numbers are allocated, in a time sequence, to all short messages sent by sending end A to receiving end B, for example, message numbers of two time-adjacent A→B short messages may be “001” and “002” respectively. Message numbers are also allocated, in a time sequence, to all short messages sent by sending end A to receiving end C, for example, message numbers of two time-adjacent A→C short messages may be “001” and “002” respectively. It may be understood that although message numbers of short messages sent to different receiving ends may be repeated, two short messages with the same message number may also be differentiated because the receiving ends have different receiving end numbers.
- Currently, a commonly used mobile terminal can sort all interaction messages between the sending end and one receiving end in one session list, and each session list is differentiated by using the receiving end number.
- In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the sending end sends the short message to the receiving end by using a network element device. Specifically, the sending end sends the short message in the following two different sending manners, which specifically include the following.
- When a device at the sending end and a device at the receiving end can communicate over the Internet, for example, when the device at the sending end and the device at the receiving end are iphone4 mobile phones in a network connected state and enable an “iMessage” function, the two iphone4 mobile phones can send a short message over the Internet. In addition, this short message is sent by using a path different from a current path of sending a short message. This short message is not sent by means of a short message center on a mobile communications network, but is forwarded by using a message server on the Internet. This belongs to some approaches, and is not further described herein. That is, when the device at the sending end and the device at the receiving end can send a short message over the Internet, the network element device is a message server of a device on the Internet.
- When the device at the sending end and the device at the receiving end cannot send a short message over the Internet, the network element device is a short message center on the mobile communications network.
-
Step 202, receive a feedback message returned by a server, where the feedback message includes the receiving end number and the message number, and the feedback message is sent by the server after the server receives a response message that is sent by the receiving end and carries the receiving end number and the message number, where the response message is sent by the receiving end to the server after the receiving end confirms that the message to be read has been read. - After receiving the short message that carries the message number from the sending end, the foregoing network element sends the short message to the receiving end; after a message application client of the receiving end knows, by means of detection, that the user has read the short message, the message application client of the receiving end may send a response message to the server over, for example, an Internet Protocol (IP) network, and carry the receiving end number and the message number in the response message to notify the server that the short message sent by the sending end whose destination number is the receiving end number and whose number is the message number has already been read.
- After receiving the foregoing response message, the server may also send a feedback message to the sending end over the IP network, and carry the receiving end number and the message number in the feedback message to indicate that the short message previously sent by the sending end whose destination number is the receiving end number and whose number is the message number has already been read. Each embodiment of the present disclosure is described by using an example that the feedback message and the response message are sent over the IP network, but is not limited to thereto.
-
Step 203, change, according to the feedback message, status of the message to be read corresponding to the message number and in a session list corresponding to the receiving end number to read status. - After receiving the feedback message and knowing that the short message has already been read, the sending end may change status of the short message corresponding to the message number and in the session list corresponding to the receiving end number to read status. In the session list, each short message has different status at different phases. After the short message is sent and before the feedback message is received from the server, the status of the short message is “sent”; after receiving the feedback message from the server, the status of the short message is accordingly changed to “read”. In this way, the user at the sending end can visually see the different status of the short message by using a display and clearly know whether the short message has been read.
- In the method for sending a message provided by this embodiment of the present disclosure, reading status of a message to be read is fed back, so that a user at a sending end can know in time whether the short message has already been read, which improves communication efficiency and enhances user awareness of the reading status of the message to be read.
- In the foregoing embodiment, after receiving a response message from the receiving end, the server knows that the short message has already been read, and may send, directly over the IP network, a feedback message that carries the receiving end number and the message number; after receiving the feedback message, the sending end may consider by default that the short message has already been read.
- Of course, the server may also use other notification manners, for example, the server includes a message status code in the feedback message sent to the sending end, where the message status code is used to identify whether the message to be read has already been read. The message status code may represent different meanings by using different preset values, for example, “1” indicates that the message has already been read, and “0” indicates that the message has not been read. After receiving the response message from the receiving end, the server knows that the short message has already been read, and may send a feedback message over the IP network, where the feedback message not only includes the receiving end number and the message number but also the message status code with the value “1”. After receiving the feedback message, the sending end may parse the value of the message status code to know that the short message has already been read.
-
FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a method for reading and notifying a message according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown inFIG. 3 , the method includes the following. -
Step 301, receive a response message that is sent by a receiving end and carries a receiving end number and a message number, where the response message is sent by the receiving end after the receiving end confirms that a message to be read sent by a sending end to the receiving end has been read; and the message to be read includes at least message content, the receiving end number, and the message number used to identify the message to be read. - After the receiving end receives a message to be read that carries the message number from the sending end, for example, a short message, the receiving end reads the short message; after the receiving end knows, by means of detection, that the short message has been read, the receiving end may send a response message to a server over, for example, an IP network, and carry the receiving end number and the message number in the response message to notify the server that the short message sent by the sending end whose destination number is the receiving end number and whose number is the message number has already been read.
-
Step 302, send a feedback message to the sending end, where the feedback message includes the receiving end number and the message number, so that the sending end changes, according to the feedback message, status information of a message corresponding to the message number and in a session list corresponding to the receiving end number to read status. - After receiving the foregoing response message, the server may also send a feedback message to the sending end over the IP network, and carry the receiving end number and the message number in the feedback message to indicate that the short message previously sent by the sending end whose destination number is the receiving end number and whose number is the message number has already been read.
- After receiving the feedback message and knowing that the short message has already been read, the sending end may change status of the short message corresponding to the message number and in the session list corresponding to the receiving end number to “read” status. In this way, a user at the sending end can visually see different status of the short message by using a display, and clearly know whether the short message has already been read.
- In the method for reading and notifying a message provided by this embodiment of the present disclosure, reading status of a message to be read is fed back, so that a user at a sending end can know in time whether the short message has already been read, which improves communication efficiency and enhances user awareness of the reading status of the message to be read.
- In the foregoing embodiment, after receiving a response message from the receiving end, the server knows that the short message has already been read, and may send, directly over the IP network, a feedback message that carries the receiving end number and the message number; after receiving the feedback message, the sending end may consider by default that the short message has already been read.
- Of course the server may also use other notification manners, for example, the server includes a message status code in the feedback message sent to the sending end, where the message status code is used to identify whether the message to be read has already been read. The message status code may represent different meanings by using different preset values, for example, “1” indicates that the message has already been read, and “0” indicates that the message has not been read. After receiving the response message from the receiving end, the server knows that the short message has already been read, and may send a feedback message over the IP network, where the feedback message includes not only the receiving end number and the message number but also the message status code with the value “1”. After receiving the feedback message, the sending end may parse the value of the message status code to know that the short message has already been read.
-
FIG. 4 is a flowchart of a method for receiving a message according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown inFIG. 4 , the method includes the following. -
Step 401, receive a message to be read from a sending end, where the message to be read includes at least message content, a receiving end number, and a message number used to identify the message to be read. -
Step 402, after the message to be read has been read, send a response message to a server, where the response message includes the receiving end number and the message number, so that the server sends a feedback message that carries the receiving end number and the message number to the sending end and the sending end changes, according to the feedback message, status information of a message corresponding to the message number and in a session list corresponding to the receiving end number to read status. - After the receiving end receives a message to be read, for example, a short message that is sent by the sending end by using the foregoing network element device and knows, by means of detection, that the short message has been read, the receiving end may send a response message to the server over an IP network, and carry the receiving end number and the message number in the response message to notify the server that the short message sent by the sending end whose destination number is the receiving end number and whose number is the message number has already been read. For details about processing flows implemented by the server and the sending end after the server receives the response message, reference may be made to the foregoing method embodiment, which is not further described herein.
- In the method for receiving a message provided by this embodiment of the present disclosure, reading status of a message to be read is fed back, so that a user at a sending end can know in time whether the short message has already been read, which improves communication efficiency and enhances user awareness of the reading status of the message to be read.
- In each of the foregoing method embodiments, the message number may be carried by using the following two manners.
- The first carrying manner is an implicit carrying manner, that is, the message number is carried by using an idle field in a message header of the message to be read. In this embodiment of the present disclosure, a user data header (UDH) in SMS specifications is extended to add a message number to a sent message.
FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of carrying a message number in a UDH header according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The sending end carries a message number in a message header of each short message, where the message number uses a reserved field in a UDH identifier in the SMS specifications. Specifically, a length 0x2 of a message number is filled in IDEDLa, and a message number (for example 000 to 255 and 0x00 to0xFF) is filled in IEDa to identify different messages. After the message number, for example, 257, is used, it may start from 1 once again. In the same session, messages are numbered according to a sequence of sending time. In different sessions, the numbers are not mutually affected. The sending end needs to save message numbers of all sessions. - The second carrying manner is an explicit carrying manner, that is, the message number is set in message content, and the message number is separated from text content of the message content by using a predetermined symbol. The explicit carrying manner provided in this embodiment is different from the foregoing implicit carrying manner in that an encoded message number is carried in the message content, and the message number is visible in the message content. For example, a predetermined symbol, for example, “□” is added to the tail of the message content, which is a special symbol used to identify a start of the message number. A piece of message content is “Hello, long time no see! □001”, where “Hello, long time no see!” is content manually edited by the user and “□001” is content automatically added by the client to the tail of the message content. The predetermined symbol “□” is followed by a three-digit message number from 000 to 255, which identifies different messages. After the message number 255 is used, the message number starts from 000 once again. The message to be read is numbered according to a sequence of transmission time.
-
FIG. 6 is a flowchart of an embodiment of a method for sending a message according to the present disclosure. As shown inFIG. 6 , the method includes the following. -
Step 601, terminal A sends a short message that carries a message number “001” to a short message center of an operator, where a receiver of the short message is terminal B. - All short messages sent by terminal A to terminal B may be numbered according to sending time, which ranges from “001” to “257”. When there are 257 short messages, the short message may be numbered starting from “001” again. A message number may be carried by using an idle field in a message header of the short message. The message number may also be set in short message content of the short message, and the message number is separated from the short message content by using a predetermined symbol.
-
Step 602, the short message center of the operator sends the short message to terminal B. -
Step 603, after a user of the receiver reads the short message, a short message application client of terminal B returns a response message to a server, where the response message carries a phone number of terminal B and a message number “001” of the short message. - In the embodiment of the present disclosure, interactions between the server and terminal A and terminal B are implemented over the IP protocol.
- Step 604, the server then sends a feedback message that carries the phone number of terminal B and the message number to terminal A. Terminal A searches for a short message numbered “001” in a session list, identifies the short message in “read” status, and displays the short message.
- Terminal A may only display a short message status updated at a most recent time segment. Assuming that status of a short message numbered “001” is “read” and status of a short message numbered “002” is “sent”, the status of the short message numbered “001” is not displayed after the short message numbered “002” has been read, and only the status, that is, the “read” status, of the short message numbered “002” is displayed, The rest may be deduced in the same manner. When some short messages are read and some short messages are not read, the “read” status is displayed for a message that has been read most recently. The “sent” status is displayed behind the last one short message which is not read but is already sent.
