Abstract:
A method and apparatus of an electronic device for managing notifications is disclosed herewith. The method includes identifying a plurality of notifications associated with one or more electronic devices. The method further determines context data of the plurality of notifications based, at least in part, on their association with at least one remote device. The method then determines an order of display of the plurality of notifications based on the context data. The method further provides the plurality of notifications based on the order of display.
Abstract:
A connector (100) and connector system are provided. A connector can include a domed metal switch (102) that is partially covered with a liquid impermeable barrier (101) such that a portion of the domed metal switch is exposed and the liquid impermeable barrier is coupled to the domed metal switch with a liquid impermeable junction (221). In a connector system, a complementary connector can include a dome switch actuator (706,707), partially covered with another liquid impermeable barrier. When pressed against the connector, the domed metal switch can deform to contact an electrical conductor (104). A control circuit (1309) can determine whether an electronic device or user is causing the deformation by detecting whether voltage or current is applied to the domed metal switch while deformed.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus operate a user portable wireless communication device on a wireless wide area network. The user portable wireless communication device can include a first side and a user input located on the first side, where the user input can include a user actuation input. The device can include a second side orthogonal to the first side and a side touch sensor on the second side. The device can also include a controller coupled to the user input and the side touch sensor. The controller can be configured to detect whether a user is touching the side touch sensor, configured to enable the user actuation input when the user is touching the side touch sensor, and configured to disable the user actuation input of the user input when the user is not touching the side touch sensor.
