The '''Open Mobile Terminal Platform''' ('''OMTP''') was a forum created by mobile network operators to discuss standards with manufacturers of [[mobile phones]] and other mobile devices. During its lifetime, the OMTP included manufacturers such as [[Huawei]], [[LG Electronics]], [[Motorola]], [[Nokia]], [[Samsung]] and [[Sony Ericsson]].<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.news.com/2100-1041_3-6209247.html |title=Pros seem to outdo cons in new phone charger standard |publisher=news.com |date=September 20, 2007 |accessdate=November 26, 2007}}</ref>

OMTP recommendations have hugely helped to standardise mobile operator terminal requirements, and its work has gone towards helping to defragment and deoptionalise operators' recommendations. OMTP's focus was on gathering and driving mobile terminal requirements, and publishing their findings in their Recommendations. OMTP was technology neutral, with its recommendations intended for deployment across the range of technology platforms, operating systems (OS) and middleware layers.
OMTP is perhaps best known for its work in the field of mobile security, but its work encompassed the full range of mobile device capabilities. OMTP published recommendations in 2007 and early 2008 on areas such as Positioning Enablers, Advanced Device Management, [[IMSA|IMS]] and Mobile [[Voice over IP|VoIP]]. Later, the Advanced Trusted Environment: OMTP TR1 and its supporting document, 'Security Threats on Embedded Consumer Devices'<ref>[http://www.gsma.com/newsroom/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/omtpsecuritythreatsonembeddedconsumerdevicesv11.pdf OMTP Security Threats on Embedded Consumer Devices] at gsma.com</ref> were released, with the endorsement of the UK Home Secretary, [[Jacqui Smith]].<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.telecoms.com/9012/crime-fighters-welcome-mobile-security-requirements |title=Crime fighters welcome mobile security requirements |publisher=telecoms.com |date=May 22, 2008 |accessdate=September 16, 2009}}</ref>
OMTP also published requirements document addressing support for advanced [[Subscriber Identity Module|SIM]] cards. This document
OMTP has also made significant progress in getting support for the use of [[micro-USB]] as a standard connector for data and power.<ref>[http://www.gsma.com/newsroom/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/omtplocaldataconnectivityv10.pdf OMTP Local Data Connectivity] at gsma.com</ref> A full list of their recommendations can be found at GSMA.com.<ref>{{cite web |title=OMTP Documents.1.0 - OMTP ADM Anti-virus Client Requirements v1.0 |url=http://www.gsma.com/newsroom/technical-documents/omtp-documents/ |website=Newsroom |accessdate=3 January 2020}}</ref>
===BONDI===
In 2008, OMTP launched a new initiative called [[BONDI (OMTP)|BONDI]] (named after [[Bondi Beach, New South Wales|the Australian beach]]); the initiative defined new interfaces ([[JavaScript]] APIs) and a security framework (based on [[XACML]] policy description) to enable the access to mobile phone functionalities (Application Invocation, Application Settings, Camera, Communications Log, Gallery, Location, Messaging, Persistent Data, Personal Information, Phone Status, User Interaction) from browser and widget engine
An open source project for a comprehensive BONDI SDK was started at bondisdk.org.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2013-05-28 |title=bondisdk.org |url=http://bondisdk.org/ |access-date=2024-05-07 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130528132818/http://bondisdk.org/
===Universal Charging System===
In February 2009, OMTP expanded its Local Connectivity specification (based on [[micro-USB]]) to describe requirements for a common charger and common connector to enable sharing the same battery charger through different phones. The OMTP Common Charging and Local Data Connectivity<ref>[http://www.gsma.com/newsroom/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/omtpcommonchargingandlocaldataconnectivityv1.1.pdf OMTP Common Charging and Local Data Connectivity]</ref> was adopted by [[GSM Association]] in the Universal Charging System (UCS) initiative. This has been further endorsed by the [[CTIA - The Wireless Association|CTIA]],<ref>[http://www.ctia.org/media/press/body.cfm/prid/1817 CTIA–The Wireless Association Announces One Universal Charger Solution to Celebrate Earth Day] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101214154849/http://ctia.org/media/press/body.cfm/PRID/1817 |date=2010-12-14 }}</ref> and the [[ITU]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.itu.int/newsroom/press_releases/2009/49.html|title=Press Release: Universal phone charger standard approved - One-size-fits-all solution will dramatically cut waste and GHG emissions|author=pressinfo|work=itu.int|accessdate=21 May 2015}}</ref> In June
