SMS Message Processing Method for Junk Storage Optimization
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The increasing volume of junk SMS messages occupies storage space on mobile terminals, degrading performance and making it cumbersome to clean up, as existing filtering methods do not effectively manage these messages.
Innovation Solution
An SMS message processing method that extracts identification information from incoming messages and determines a processing manner based on prestored correspondence, allowing messages to be processed differently, such as deletion, storage in junk, conventional, or confidential areas, optimizing storage usage and improving terminal performance.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If junk SMS messages are stored in a junk SMS message storage area, then junk messages can be identified and separated from legitimate messages, but storage space of the mobile terminal is occupied and performance is degraded
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the harmful junk SMS messages from the normal message flow and separates them into a dedicated junk SMS message storage area. This extraction mechanism allows the system to maintain reliable junk message identification while containing the storage impact to a specific, manageable location rather than occupying general storage space.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the SMS message storage into different areas: normal SMS storage and junk SMS message storage. This segmentation allows the system to handle junk messages separately from legitimate messages, improving identification reliability while containing storage space consumption to a dedicated section that can be independently managed and cleaned.
2Loss of information
If all received SMS messages are stored in the mobile terminal, then message history is preserved for user review, but storage space is occupied and terminal performance is degraded
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by treating different types of messages differently: legitimate SMS messages are stored in the normal SMS area for user review, while junk SMS messages are stored in a separate junk SMS message storage area. This allows the system to preserve message history for legitimate communications while containing junk message storage in a dedicated section that can be easily managed.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements automatic discarding of junk SMS messages from the normal message flow and recovering them to a dedicated junk storage area. This mechanism preserves the ability to review legitimate messages while automatically removing junk messages from the main storage, reducing overall storage consumption and improving terminal performance.
3Reliability
If a filtering application is installed to intercept junk SMS messages, then junk message filtering capability is provided, but device complexity increases and storage space is still occupied
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates the junk SMS filtering functionality into the existing SMS processing mechanism, making the system universal. The same SMS receiving and processing infrastructure handles both legitimate and junk messages, eliminating the need for separate filtering applications while maintaining reliable junk message identification and separation.

AI summary
A short message service (SMS) message processing method and apparatus, and an electronic device. The electronic device is configured to receive a SMS message and set identification information of the SMS message to correspond to a processing manner for the received SMS message. A first processing manner is either deleting the received SMS message or saving the received SMS message in a junk SMS message storage area. A second processing manner is saving the received SMS message in a conventional SMS message storage area, and displaying both a content of the received SMS message and a delete option when a view operation on the received SMS message is detected. A third processing manner is saving the received SMS message in the conventional SMS message storage area. A fourth processing manner is saving the received SMS message in a confidential SMS message storage area.
