Abstract:
An electronic device comprising: a communication interface; a memory; and at least one processor coupled to the memory and the communication interface, wherein the at least one processor is configured to: detect a change of state of the electronic device; transmit to a secondary electronic device a first information item associated with the change of state of the electronic device; receive a second information item from the secondary electronic device in response to the first information item; and perform an operation based on the secondary information item.
Abstract:
An electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a universal serial bus (USB) interface; a processor electrically connected to the USB interface; and a memory electrically connected to the processor, wherein the memory may store instructions configured to, when executed, cause the processor to: enter a security mode; in the security mode, receive, from an external device connected to the electronic device via the USB interface, a USB class code corresponding to the external device; determine whether the USB class code is included in a white list of connectable devices allowed to be connected to the electronic device in the security mode; and control a communication connection between the external device and the electronic device according to whether the USB class code is included in the white list. Other embodiments are also possible.
Abstract:
An electronic device according to various embodiments includes a housing; a user interface; a wireless communication circuit disposed in the housing; a wired communication interface exposed through the housing; a processor disposed in the housing and electrically connected to the user interface, the wireless communication circuit, and the wired communication interface; and a memory disposed in the housing and electrically connected to the processor, wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the electronic device to establish a first communication channel with an external electronic device including a storage using the wireless communication circuit and/or the wired communication interface so that the electronic device operates as a device and the external electronic device operates as a host, to exchange information with the external electronic device through the first communication channel, and to establish a second communication channel with the external electronic device using the wireless communication circuit so that the electronic device operates as a host and the external electronic device operates as a device.
Abstract:
A method of operating an electronic device is provided. The method includes communicating data with a wireless network using a wireless communication, connecting to an external electronic device using a wired communication, exchanging data with the external device at a first data throughput using the wired communication while performing the wireless communication, and changing the first data throughput to a second data throughput while performing the wireless communication.
Abstract:
A screen sharing method for an electronic device is provided. A first device communicates with a second device and shares a first screen. At the first device, a specific image is displayed superposed with the first screen, where the specific image is excluded from the first screen shared with the second electronic device. The second screen is thereafter shared with the second device. An intuitive user interface for editing a shared screen and thereafter sharing the edited screen is thus provided.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method are provided. The apparatus includes a connector to connect with an electronic device external to the apparatus, and a processor configured to identify a connection with the electronic device via the connector, receive, using a first communication scheme, a message from the electronic device based at least in part on the identifying, determine, based at least in part on the message, whether the electronic device supports a second communication scheme, and establish a communication link corresponding to the second communication scheme with the electronic device based at least in part on a determination that the electronic device supports the second communication scheme.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for downloading content to a large-capacity internal memory in a portable terminal are provided. The method includes performing a booting process of the portable terminal at the occurrence of a booting event, examining whether a Universal Serial Bus (USB) port is enabled during the booting process, if the USB port is enabled, receiving data through the USB port before driver loading, and storing the received data into the large-capacity internal memory and performing the booting process.
