Abstract:
Mobile communication terminals and methods are provided. A mobile communication terminal includes a transceiver, audio processing unit, speaker, connecting unit, display unit, input unit, and control unit. The control unit is configured to control to display, while in a silent mode, a user interface for reproduction of a music file, in response to a user input while in the silent mode, control to reproduce the music file and to output audio signals corresponding thereto through the speaker, in response to receiving an incoming call in the silent mode, stop reproduction of a music file, and output an indication of the reception of the incoming call by vibration or without sound according to a setting of the silent mode, and while in the silent mode, control reproduction of a music file depending upon detection of a change of a connection state of an external audio output device.
Abstract:
A method of, and a mobile terminal configured for, efficiently displaying an event indication in the form of a pop-up box during idle mode of a mobile terminal is provided. Upon occurrence of a second event in idle mode, it is determined whether an event pop-up box indicating an occurrence of a first event of the same type as the second event exists. When the event pop-up box indicating the occurrence of the first event exists, the event pop-up box is updated with information indicating the occurrence of the second event and displayed on a display.
Abstract:
A mobile communication terminal is provided including an audio processing unit, a speaker, a connecting unit that connects to an external audio output device and indicates whether the external audio output device is connected, and a control unit configured to, while in a silent mode, control the audio processing unit to reproduce a music file and to output audio signals, corresponding to the reproduced music file, through the speaker, the silent mode being a mode wherein a vibration signal is generated upon receiving an incoming call, if the external audio output device is connected to the connecting unit, output the audio signals to the external audio output device, and if the external audio output device is disconnected from the connecting unit while the audio signals are being output to the external audio output device, control the display unit to display a user interface for continuing reproduction of the music file.

Abstract:
A battery charging method and an electronic device are disclosed. The electronic device can comprise: a connection unit comprising a first terminal to which a voltage is applied by an external device, and a second terminal for transmitting/receiving data; a first charging unit for charging a battery connected to the electronic device by using the voltage applied to the first terminal; and a second charging unit for charging the battery by dropping the voltage applied to the first terminal according to a preset voltage drop rate. The first charging unit can comprise: a first switch connected to the first terminal; a communication unit for transmitting information through the second terminal; and a first control unit for acquiring first information on the battery voltage, controlling the communication unit such that the first information is transmitted to a charger connected to the connection unit, and controlling the first switch such that the voltage adjusted on the basis of the first information by the charger is supplied to the second charging unit through the first terminal.

Abstract:
An apparatus and method are provided. The method includes reproducing, by a portable phone, multimedia content via an external output device while the portable phone is coupled with the external output device, determining whether the portable phone is decoupled from the external output device, and terminating the reproducing of the multimedia content based at least in part on a determination that the portable phone is decoupled from the external output device.
Abstract:
A method for managing power of an electronic device and the electronic device thereof are provided. An operation method of the electronic device includes detecting a remaining battery capacity, calculating and storing a reduced ratio per unit time of the remaining battery capacity and, based on the reduced ratio, predicting a remaining operating time of the battery.
Abstract:
A mobile communication terminal is provided including an audio processing unit, a speaker, a connecting unit that connects to an external audio output device and indicates whether the external audio output device is connected, and a control unit configured to, while in a silent mode, control the audio processing unit to reproduce a music file and to output audio signals, corresponding to the reproduced music file, through the speaker, the silent mode being a mode wherein a vibration signal is generated upon receiving an incoming call, if the external audio output device is connected to the connecting unit, output the audio signals to the external audio output device, and if the external audio output device is disconnected from the connecting unit while the audio signals are being output to the external audio output device, control the display unit to display a user interface for continuing reproduction of the music file.
