Methods and apparatus for implementing a recovery mode procedure for a computing device are disclosed. An example method includes determining, by a computing device, that a recovery mode procedure is to be executed on the computing device. The example method further includes, determining whether a trusted recovery image is accessible to the computing device and, in the event the trusted recovery image is accessible to the computing device, executing the recovery mode procedure to repair or replace a current image of the computing device using the trusted recovery image. In the event the trusted recovery image is not accessible to the computing device, the example method includes, providing instructions for obtaining the trusted recovery image, determining the obtained trusted recovery image is accessible to the computing device and executing the recovery mode procedure to repair or replace the current image of the computing device using the obtained trusted recovery image.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium may comprise instructions stored thereon. When executed by at least one processor, instructions may be configured to cause a computing system to at least receive, on a tactile input device of the computing system, a first contact and a second contact, the first and second contacts being maintained on the tactile input device, at least one of the first and second contacts changing location on the tactile input device, determine a direction of movement by the first and second contacts based on the at least one of the first and second contacts changing locations on the tactile input device, assign the determined direction of movement to one of a plurality of directional zones, and modify the determined direction based on the assigned directional zone.

A computing device is provided herein. For instance, the computing device comprises base and lid assemblies, and a connector. The base assembly includes a base housing, a first hinge portion attached to the housing, a keyboard, a touch-based input surface, and an electronic component within the housing. The housing includes a first surface at least partly surrounding the keyboard and touch-based input, and a second opposing surface. The lid assembly includes a lid housing, a second hinge portion, and a display, and includes a first surface at least partly surrounding the display and a second surface opposite the first surface. The connector has a third hinge portion, a fourth hinge portion and a body extending therebetween. The third hinge portion is rotatably affixed to the first hinge portion of the base assembly, and the fourth hinge portion is rotatably affixed to the second hinge portion of the lid assembly.

According to one general aspect, a method may include operating a computing device in a first power mode. The method may also include executing, by a processor of the computing device, at least one non-interactive task. The method may also include detecting, by a processor of the computing device, a request to place the computing device in a second power mode, wherein the second power mode consumes less system resources than the first power mode. The method may further include delaying the transition of the computing device to the second power mode until either the completion of the non-interactive task or an overriding triggering event.

The surface of an touch-sensitive input device may act as a physical button that the user may push down to perform a click or other operation. For example, the user may push down the surface of the input device with one finger for a left click and push down the surface of the input device with two fingers for a right click. In one aspect, a system for detecting a left click or a right click when the user pushes down the surface of the input device is provided. When the system first detects that the surface of the input device is pushed down, the system may wait for a short period of time before making a determination of whether the user is pushing down the surface with one finger or two fingers. During this time, the system may collect additional information to make a more reliable determination.

Methods and apparatus for implementing modes of operation of computing device are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a mode-selection input device having a first state and a second state. The example apparatus also includes firmware operably coupled with the mode-selection input device. In the example apparatus, when the mode-selection input device is in the first state, the firmware is configured to cause the computing device to operate in a first mode of operation, a user mode. In the example apparatus, when the mode-selection input device is in the second state, the firmware is configured to cause the computing device to operate in second mode of operation, a developer mode.

According to one general aspect, a method may include monitoring, by a computing device, a user's current behavior in regards to the computing device. The method may also include determining whether to place the computing device in a reduced power mode based upon the user's monitored current behavior and based on a history of user habits in regards to one or more computing devices. In various implementations, the method may further include, if it is determined to place the computing device in the reduced power mode, placing the computing device in the reduced power mode.

A computing device may detect the presence of a user after the user has not interacted with the computing device for a predetermined time period. The user may leave the device powered up, but after the predetermined time period has expired, the device enters a user detection mode from a normal operation mode such that nonessential components are powered down. A trackpad may be used to detect the presence of the user in the user detection mode. An electric field is generated by conductive plates of the trackpad. When the user extends his hand over the trackpad, sense lines in the track pad detect the interference with the electric field caused by the hand. A processor is signaled to return the device normal operation mode and restore full power to the device. A camera may be also used to detect the user's presence during the user detection mode.

Methods and apparatus for updating state of computing device are disclosed. An example method includes automatically scheduling, in a computing device, an update-process trigger. In the example method, occurrence of the update-process trigger causes the computing device to transition from a low power state to a first active power state and perform an update process for the computing device. The example method further includes initiating, after scheduling the update-process trigger, a transition of the computing device from a second active power state to the low power state. In response to occurrence of the update-process trigger, the example method includes initiating the transition of the computing device from the low power state to the first active power state and performing the update process after the transition from the low power state to the first active power state is complete.
