System and method for customizing mobilephone resource file

Abstract

A system and method is provided for efficiently modifying or changing resource files in a mobile phone. The resource files, such as ring tone, font, and wallpaper files, are preferably stored in one or more memory segments, which are separate from one or more code file memory segments, of the phone's nonvolatile, or flash, memory. A resource file management program is used to read, write, modify, and / or erase resource files separately from the code files and other files stored in the phone's nonvolatile memory. Accordingly, resource files can be written or otherwise delivered into the nonvolatile memory of the phone without the need to re-download, rewrite, or otherwise update the code files and other non-resource files stored in the phone's nonvolatile memory.
