Method and system for application-controlled multiple Wi-Fi connections
A method, electronic device, and non-transitory computer readable medium for controlling Wi-Fi channels. The method comprises, in response to identifying an application to be executed, identifying, by the electronic device, available Wi-Fi channels to use for sending and receiving data for the application. The method also includes identifying, by the electronic device, which one of the available Wi-Fi channels to use for sending and receiving the data for the application based on preset mappings between applications and the available Wi-Fi channels.
Extending Use of a Cellular Communication Capabilities in a Wireless Device to Another Device
Extending cellular telecommunication service from a first UE to another device. The first UE may register for cellular telecommunication service with a cellular network using a first cellular service account, using a cellular communication link via a cellular radio. A second device may be discovered and a communication link may be established between the first UE and the second device. The second device may be registered to use cellular telecommunication capability provided by the first UE. Communications between the second device and the cellular network may be conveyed via the communication link between the first UE and the second device and the cellular communication link. Conveying communications between the second device and the cellular network may provide use of the first cellular service account for cellular telecommunication service to the second device.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ELECTRONIC DEVICE
An electronic device is disclosed. The disclosed electronic device comprises: a communication circuit; a display; a processor; and a memory electrically connected to the processor, wherein the memory may store commands set so that the processor controls the display to display, on a narrow and long area extending along at least one edge area formed on the display, a user interface comprising location information of an external device to and from which a signal is transmitted and received via the communication circuit. Other various embodiments are possible.
Disablement of Wi-Fi access in response to lack of activated SIM card
Example embodiments relate to a user equipment that can receive a command to turn on the user equipment. In response to determining that the user equipment has not been initialized, and prior to displaying a graphical user interface listing a Wi-Fi network to which the user equipment can connect, the user equipment presents a graphical user interface that displays an option to activate a cellular service provided by a mobile network operator entity, but does not display an option to activate the cellular service at a subsequent time.
SYSTEM, METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR MANAGING A NETWORK BASED ON FEEDBACK
A system, method, and computer program product are provided for managing a network based on feedback according to one embodiment. In use, the method includes establishing a network; connecting a plurality of devices to the network, the plurality of devices including a master device; and limiting access to the network to a predetermined period of time for one or more of the plurality of devices, where the master device is exempt from the limiting.
DISABLEMENT OF WI-FI ACCESS IN RESPONSE TO LACK OF ACTIVATED SIM CARD
Example embodiments relate to a user equipment that can receive a command to turn on the user equipment. In response to determining that the user equipment has not been initialized, and prior to displaying a graphical user interface listing a Wi-Fi network to which the user equipment can connect, the user equipment presents a graphical user interface that displays an option to activate a cellular service provided by a mobile network operator entity, but does not display an option to activate the cellular service at a subsequent time.
Device search apparatus and device search method
A device search apparatus includes: a communication device which wirelessly communicates with a device; an input device to which information is inputted; a display device which displays information; and a processing device which, if input information including a predetermined keyword is received via the input device, searches for a device, using the communication device, extracts a device associated with a device name included in the input information from among the devices detected by the search, and displays a device indication representing each of the extracted devices on the display device.
DYNAMIC LIP-SYNC COMPENSATION FOR TRULY WIRELESS BLUETOOTH DEVICES
Audio systems in which a primary audio device (28) communicates wirelessly with a second audio device (36) include a latency caused by the communication between the two audio devices. For example, a truly wireless audio device can comprise a first earpiece and a second earpiece. The electronic device (10) that is playing a media file transmits audio data to the first earpiece. The first earpiece then transmits a portion of the audio data to the second earpiece. This communication between the first and second earpiece causes a latency that the system can account for in order to synchronize a video playback with the corresponding audio playback on the wireless headset.
Wearable audio recorder and retrieval software applications
Wearable audio recorder and retrieval software applications for long term audio and related data recording, visualization, filtering, search, and proof of provenance, providing a record-all and find-later methodology capable of finding audio in multi-year audio data streams. System default state is to record permanently, allowing the user to decide when not to record instead of when to record. User interfaces enable users to retrieve desired recorded audio data by querying other types of recorded data which are related to the desired recorded audio data by way of time and spatial domains.
METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR REDUCING CELLULAR TELEPHONE RADIATION EXPOSURE
In some aspects, a cellular telephone includes (1) a user interface portion having a communications circuit; and (2) a cellular portion having a first communications circuit adapted to communicate with the communications circuit of the user interface portion and a second communications circuit adapted to communicate with a cellular network. The cellular portion is removably coupled to the user interface portion so as to allow a user of the cellular telephone to communicate over a cellular network by using the user interface portion while the cellular portion is separated from the user interface portion. Numerous other aspects are provided.
