摘要:
A content receiver receives ordering information from a content provider for orderable content or products. The content receiver also derives information specific to the content receiver and dynamically generates a matrix code including the ordering information and the specific information. The content receiver then transmits the matrix code to a display and when the displayed matrix code is detected and decoded by a reader, the reader initiates an order for the orderable content to be transmitted to the content receiver or products. In some implementations, the orderable content may be ordered from the content provider, which may then transmit the ordered content to the content receiver. However, in other implementations the orderable content may be ordered from a third party provider. As such, the third party provider may transmit the ordered content to the content provider, which may then transmit it to the content receiver.

An electronic device may derive information specific to the device, dynamically generate a matrix code that includes the information as well as user support information, and transmit the dynamically generated code to a display. When a user captures the matrix code with a reader device, the reader device may decode (or use a back end server to decode) the specific information specific and the user support information and initiate a user support request. Thus, user support for electronic devices may be facilitated utilizing dynamically generated matrix codes, such as (but not limited to) QR codes. In response to the initiated user support request, user support may then be provided for the user. Problems may be automatically taken care of for the user, tutorials may be provided for the user, one or more notifications may be provided to the user, service calls may be scheduled for the user, and so on.

Described are devices and for providing an extendable screen in a portable communications device having a housing, graphics processor, and a display apparatus. The display includes a second screen portion that can be retracted or extended. A first screen portion can present a graphical output when the second portion is retracted, inactive and housed inside the housing. When the second screen portion is extended, it is coplanar with the first screen portion, and an edge of the second screen portion directly abuts an edge of the first screen portion to form a combined display screen. The graphical output can be rendered on the first screen portion in the first display configuration and, in a second format, rendered on the combined display screen.
