摘要:
In embodiments of content control based on data link context, a portable electronic device (102) detects when communicatively linked to a media rendering device (114) via a data link (122). The portable electronic device (102) can then determine whether the data link (122) was previously utilized to communicatively link the portable electronic device (102) to the media rendering device (114). The portable electronic device (102) can then initiate a media control selection menu (128) for display on the portable electronic device (102) if the data link (122) was not previously utilized. Alternatively, the portable electronic device (102) can initiate a media control interface (126) for display on the portable electronic device (102) if the data link (122) was previously utilized, where the media control interface (126) is implemented for user-selection to control media content (106) that is rendered by the media rendering device (114).
摘要:
A wireless communication device and method adapted for temperature monitoring and warning is disclosed. In its simplest form, it can include: providing (510) a multi-mode communication device including an unrestricted mode having an unrestricted operation temperature range and a restricted mode having a restricted operation temperature range; determining (520) if a temperature in proximity to an energy storage device is in at least one of the restricted operation temperature range and the unrestricted operation temperature range; periodically entering (530) the restricted mode when in the restricted operation temperature range and entering the unrestricted mode when in the unrestricted operation temperature range; and entering (540) the unrestricted mode when a user attempts to make an emergency call. Advantageously, this method allows safe battery operation, while allowing a user to make emergency calls.
摘要:
A hand-held device and method for managing the orientation of information being displayed on the screen of a hand-held device is provided for devices having a two part slidable housing including a first housing and a second housing where the two housings are adapted to slide separately in multiple directions relative to one another along a corresponding path substantially parallel to a front facing of the device between an opened position and a closed position. The method takes into account a detected use mode, such as whether the device is engaged in a voice call communication, and a detected device configuration to determine the orientation of the information to be displayed on the device screen. When the first housing is slid relative to the second housing between a closed position and an opened position in a first direction, the information is displayed having a portrait orientation. The information is displayed having a landscape orientation, when the first housing is slid relative to the second housing between a closed position and an opened position in a second direction. When the hand-held device is in a voice call and the first housing is slid relative to the second housing between an opened position and a closed position, the information is displayed having a portrait orientation. When the hand-held device is not in a voice call and the first housing is slid relative to the second housing between an opened position and a closed position, the orientation of the information being displayed is not changed.

摘要:
A display interface and method for displaying multiple items arranged in a sequence are provided for presenting to the user via the display the multiple items along one of multiple paths as the user scrolls through the items. The display interface includes a display, a user input and a controller. The display is adapted for visually presenting to the user the multiple items from the group of items arranged in the sequence. The user input is adapted for receiving at least one of multiple different user gestures. The controller is adapted for comparing a received user gesture with one of a plurality of predefined gestures which are intended to signal a desire to scroll through the group of items arranged in the sequence, where as the group of items are scrolled through, a different subset of multiple items from the group of items arranged in the sequence are presented to the user via the display. If a first one of the plurality of predefined gestures is received, the multiple items from the group of items arranged in the sequence are presented to the user via the display along a first path on the display. If a second one of the plurality of predefined gestures is received, the multiple items from the group of items arranged in the sequence are presented to the user via the display along a second path on the display, which is different from the first path.
