Red Bend Enables China Mobile to Manage Android Devices

By Seger (Gang) Shen

3G has arrived in China, and with it has come a wave of innovative handsets. To drive usage of its new 3G service, China Mobile has developed an exciting new Android-based software platform called the OPhone OS (Open Mobile Phone Operating System). The OPhone OS has been developed by Borqs for China Mobile and is quickly expanding to Japan and other regions. OPhone smartphones are designed to compete with Apple’s iPhone, which is being offered by China Unicom.

Through an agreement with China Mobile Research Institute, Red Bend is enabling China Mobile to manage its Android-based devices by providing FOTA and DM software for the OPhone OS. Devices running OPhone, such as the HTC Dopod A6188, have already launched in the Chinese market.

3G devices are feature rich, and therefore more complex. When developing the OPhone OS, China Mobile and Borqs decided to build in management support to ensure that the platform could be easily and efficiently updated over the air with the latest features and software improvements.

“At Borqs, we understand that mobile phones and the software on these phones need to be updated at any time, from anywhere, and we needed a solution that could do this,” said Bob Li, senior vice president of business development at Borqs. “While the hardware of a phone can last for a long time, this is not the case with the software. Software comes with many functions and applications that require updates.”

According to Li, “Red Bend has a good history, and the company has many global customers and a great deal of support experience. I believe Borqs will maintain our partnership with Red Bend into the future, and I’m sure we will have many opportunities to work with them.”
