SCOOPE is a Software
Application that transforms an ordinary Mobile Phone into a
powerful Business Companion.
SCOOPE is an INNOVATIVE
yet SIMPLE to USE, Mobile application that allows subscribers
to access CURRENT and ARCHIVED NEWS on different categories
and topics and themes, directly from the convenience of their
Mobile Phones.
SCOOPE provides the subscribers to
access quality STM Information of their choice anytime,
anywhere without the need for a Computer.
Mobile Phone /
Cell Phone / Hand Phone – Which is the right
terminology?
We have chosen to use the
terminology Mobile Phone to refer to Phones that use GSM /
CDMA / 3G technology for communication. Mobile Phone or Cell
Phone or Hand Phone all mean the same.
How do I know if SCOOPE will work in my
Mobile Phone?
If your answer is a YES
to the following questions, SCOOPE should work in your Mobile
Phone without any problem. Does my Phone have Bluetooth
Capability? Does my Phone have a Memory Card? Is my
Phone a GSM / 3G Phone? Are there other working Java
Applications that came with the Phone or that I have
downloaded? In case of doubt, please contact the Service
Centre or Dealer from whom the Mobile Phone was
purchased.
This will be a very
long list considering the numerous models that get launched on
a daily basis. In general most models of Nokia, SonyEricsson,
Samsung, Motorola will support SCOOPE.
In case you are
not sure, send us a mail with the Name and Model Number of
your phone and we shall help out or contacting your Phone
Service centre.
SCOOPE will NOT
function in Smart Phones that use Windows Mobile Operating
System and iPhones, for the present. The versions which will
address these issues, shall be released in due
course.
What are the other limitations / hiccups
one will face while attempting to use SCOOPE?
Some Phones that use
CDMA Network, even if they are Java enabled, may not be able
to access SCOOPE Contents. Low end Models of Phones that
offer basic functions only, will not support SCOOPE. Some
Models will require one or more additional components to be
downloaded from the Internet. Some Models though seemingly
compatible may have a lower version of the Operating System
loaded. Contact the Phone Service Centre or the dealer in
such cases or send us a mail giving details of your Phone make
and model and we shall try to sort out.
I would have expected SCOOPE to work just
like any Software Application in my Computer System?
Well, most Computers
now support one single Operating System and hence are
standard. This type of standardization have not yet happened
in the case of Mobile Phones. Perhaps this may happen in the
future.
Method 1: Portal to
Phone via direct access to Portal: If your Mobile Phone is
GPRS enabled , directly access the Download link and transfer
the SCOOPE application to your Phone.
Method 2: Portal
to Phone via a WAP Link: In case you had received a URL
Link as a SMS Message, click on the URL Link to access the
Portal as in method 1.
Method 3: Portal to Computer to
Phone: Access the Download link in the Portal via a
Computer, download the Application to your computer and then
transfer the same to the Phone by linking the Phone to the
Computer with the help of Bluetooth or Infrared or
Cable.
Method 4: Portal to Computer to Phone via a WAP
Link: In case you had received a URL Link as an EMAIL, open
the EMAIL and click on the Link to access the Portal as in
method 3.
Method 5: From a CD to Phone In case
SCOOPE was made available to you in a CD or a DVD or a Pen
Drive, copy the application to a folder in your computer and
then copy the same to the Phone via Bluetooth or Infrared or
Cable.
In some Models, a Java
application (and SCOOPE is no exception) gets installed
directly in the Galleries or Games Folder. (A Choice is given
to the Subscriber to determine the folder).
In some
Models, the application is received in the Inbox as a SMS
message and clicking on the message, installs the Application.
In case of any issues contact us or your Phone Service
centre or consult the Phone Manual.
What happens if I receive a Phone Call
while using SCOOPE?
SCOOPE will prompt the
subscriber if s/he wishes to suspend the application while
answering the call. If YES, the application gets suspended and
can be resumed once the call is completed.
What happens if a Call is received while
using SCOOPE and I don’t pick it up?
The Call will be
recorded in the MISSED CALLS list like any other Missed Call.
In some phones a popup message may appear. These will not
disturb SCOOPE nor SCOOPE will affect the Popup
message.
Go to the FOLDER where
SCOOPE is stored and delete as per the DELETE option in your
phone. Consult your Phone manual or contact the Phone Service
centre in case of doubts. Alternately Contact Us giving your
Phone make and Model number and we shall sort it out.
It must be remembered
that a Mobile Phone is NOT a computer with a powerful
processor or a large easy to read screen and very large memory
size. Though the News Size is limited only by the capacity of
the memory card, a very large news item will be slower to
read. News Published, therefore will be always a gist /
summary with focus on ease of use and high
availability.
SCOOPE does not seem to work even though
my Phone is Java enabled?
Perhaps the Mobile
Phone does not have the latest Operating System or some
components are missing. (Some Models of SAMSUNG and MOTORLA
require some additional components to be downloaded and
installed). In case of any issues contact us or your Phone
Service centre or consult the Phone Manual.
Is Memory Card a MUST-NEED item for SCOOPE
to work?
Yes. This is because,
the downloaded files are stored in the Memory Card. We do not
use the Phone Memory to avoid any clash with other
applications in the Mobile Phone.
I have more than one Memory Card which I
keep replacing every time. Will SCOOPE function in such a
case?
SCOOPE refers to the
memory card to locate the News Files which are stored in a
special format. In case the files are present in the currently
installed memory card, yes, they will be
accessible.
GPRS connectivity is
required to access the SCOOPE NEWS Portal and to download the
NEWS Item. GPRS is automatically disconnected once the News
Item is copied to the memory card.
I wish to inform my friend about a NEWS I
read in SCOOPE. How do I do it?
SCOOPE Application has
an option to send the News Title and a brief description to a
number stored in the Contacts List of your Mobile Phone. The
information is sent as a SMS Message.
