Patent 4: US10148812B2Granted
Method of Playing Music Prior to Establishing a Phone Call
Assignee: OnMobile Global Limited
Priority Date: September 12, 2016
Filed: September 12, 2017
Granted: December 4, 2018
Expiration: September 12, 2037
Current Status: Expired - Fee Related (January 2023)
Innovative method for music discovery and playback during call establishment. The system plays music for approximately 8 seconds when making a mobile call, creating an enhanced caller experience and enabling passive music discovery directly from the user's phone—no telecom network integration required.
Problem Addressed
Existing music discovery services (Spotify, Shazam) require active user engagement. This patent identifies an underutilized moment in daily life—the gap between initiating a call and connection—as an opportunity for passive music discovery without requiring conscious user selection.
Key Claims
Primary Claim (Claim 1)
A method comprising three steps:
Pre-fetching multiple music clips from a server
Buffering them locally on the device
Playing a buffered clip for predetermined duration (typically 8 seconds) during call establishment
Supporting Claims
User preferences based on genre, date, geography, language
Active data connection required for buffering
System includes mobile phone, application server, content management

Abstract
System and procedure for selecting an editable audio file with predetermined duration that is sent to a caller as a waiting tone (ringback tone). The process enables subscribers to customize their ringback tone experience with personalized audio content, creating a more engaging caller experience.
Technical Process
Selection: Subscriber selects an editable audio file with predetermined parameters
Encryption: Selected file is encrypted on storage
Communication: Audio file's start time communicated to server via interface
Processing: Server-side transcoding and smoothing of the editable audio portion
Transfer: Processed audio transferred to mobile operator's network as hold tone
Unlike traditional fixed ringback tones, this system allows subscribers to use editable audio files with customizable start points, durations, and processing. The server-side transcoding ensures compatibility across different mobile networks while maintaining audio quality.
