Abstract: This application relates to techniques that adjust the sleep states of a computing device based on proximity detection and predicted user activity. Proximity detection procedures can be used to determine a proximity between the computing device and a remote computing device coupled to the user. Based on these proximity detection procedures, the computing device can either correspondingly increase or decrease the amount power supplied to the various components during either a low-power sleep state or a high-power sleep state. Additionally, historical user activity data gathered on the computing device can be used to predict when the user will likely use the computing device. Based on the gathered historical user activity, deep sleep signals and light sleep signals can be issued at a time when the computing device is placed within a sleep state which can cause it to immediately enter either a low-power sleep state or a high-power sleep state.

Abstract: An electronic device may have a power system with a battery. The power system receives power such as wireless power or wired power and uses a portion of the received power to charge the battery as needed. Control circuitry in the portable electronic device is used to run background processes such as image processing tasks, data synchronization tasks, indexing, and other background processes. In some circumstances, such as when the battery is below a certain state of charge threshold, background processes may be stopped so that the battery is charged as fast as possible. Once above this initial state of charge threshold, background processes may be performed during charging as long as the temperature and state of charge of the battery do not exceed safety temperature and safety state of charge values. Performing background processes in these conditions ensures requisite background processing tasks are completed while preserving battery health.

Abstract: An electronic device may have a power system. The power system may receive power such as wireless power or wired power and may use a portion of the received power to charge a battery. Power consumption by control circuitry in the device can be adjusted by deactivating or activating processor cores in the control circuitry and by selectively starting or stopping software activities. By selectively reducing power consumption by circuitry in the electronic device other than battery charging circuitry in the power system that is charging the battery, additional power may be made available to charge the battery and/or battery capacity can be extended. The electronic device may reduce non-battery-charging activities in the device in response to information gathered with sensors such as motion and temperature information, information from the power system, information on device location, information on software settings, and other information.

Abstract: Synchronizing context information between a plurality of electronic devices associated with a user, each device including one or more processors, communication interfaces, and memory or storage, can be performed by at least one of the devices and can include subscribing to one or more contexts, each context corresponding one or more properties, statuses, or other information corresponding to another of the plurality of electronic devices; and receiving periodic updates of the one or more subscribed contexts from a data store shared or distributed among the plurality of devices, wherein receiving periodic updates comprises pulling the periodic updates from the data store or receiving pushed updates from the data store. The subscribed contexts can be filtered based on at least one of relevance or importance, wherein the relevance or importance of each context controls the frequency, scheduling, and prioritization of updates for that context.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to power consuming processes of electronic devices. For example, an electronic device may create, initiate, and/or modify a power consuming process of the electronic device, based in part on user power consumption information that indicates a typical amount of power consumed by a user of the electronic device. The electronic device may recommend increases in power consumption for low power consumption users and/or decreases in power consumption for high power consumption users. A power consumption process may include a visual arrangement of graphical elements that each display periodically, occasionally, and/or continuously updated information from the application, when a full user interface of the application is not displayed.

Abstract: Manners of scheduling downloads for a user equipment (UE). The UE is configured to establish a connection to a network and receive an indication of a user-initiated download, determining whether the download is to be performed now or at a subsequent time, when the download is to be performed at the subsequent time, determine a time window during which the download is to be initiated and initiate the download during the time window.

Abstract: A method of controlling charging of a wireless headphone device includes estimating a usage time value that corresponds to an anticipated future occurrence of usage of the wireless headphone device and estimating a resume time value that corresponds to a time for charging to commence to allow for completion of charging from a first predetermined state of charge value to a second predetermined state of charge value by the usage time value. The method also includes determining that the wireless headphone device has been placed in a charging case. A battery of the wireless headphone device is charged to the first predetermined state of charge value and then enters a deactivated mode, wherein the charging case is configured to return the wireless headphone device to an activated mode according to the resume time value.

Abstract: A power system uses a power transmitting device to charge batteries in power receiving devices. Wireless power is transmitted using coils in the power transmitting device and coils in the power receiving devices. Usage history information such as power consumption, times and dates of device usage, battery charge state information, device location information, and other information is gathered using portable electronic devices in the system. Control circuitry in the power transmitting device or elsewhere in the system controls power transfer so that battery charging is performed in accordance with appropriate battery charging settings. Battery charging settings such as maximum charge level, charge rate, charging start and stop times, and other settings are adjusted based on usage history information from one or more devices and/or one or more users.
