A portable communication device (1) is capable of setting a sleep mode as an operation mode. An operation receiver (101) receives operations given by a user. A setter (102) sets the operation mode to the sleep mode when the operation receiver (101) receives no operation for a first time period. A displayer (103) displays an indicator on a display when the operation receiver (101) receives a first operation in the sleep made. A launcher (104) launches, when the operation receiver (101) receives operations for specifying the indicator, an application program associated with the specified indicator.

A computer system displays a first user interface that includes respective selectable representations of a plurality of categories for media items associated with the computer system, including at least a first selectable representation of a first category and a second representation of a second category. While displaying the first user interface for configuring the system user interface, the computer system detects a first input selecting a set of one or more of the plurality of categories. After the set of one or more of the plurality of categories were selected by the first input, the computer system displays the system user interface, wherein displaying the system user interface includes, over time displaying the system user interface with a plurality of versions of the first background that respectively include media items selected from media items in respective categories in the set of one or more of the plurality of categories.

A portable electronic device able to transition directly from a locked state to activation of an application includes a display displaying an unlocking interface. The portable electronic device receives and validates first and second touch inputs from a user, the first input being matchable to an unlocking condition, and the application being selectable by the second input. The first and second inputs may be found together in one sliding touch. Upon validation of the first input, redirecting from the unlocking interface to a home screen if no application is selected, or to an interface of the application if one is selected. Without validation, the display continues to display the unlocking interface and no application is activated. An unlocking method of the portable electronic device is also provided.

This application provides an incoming call volume control method and an electronic device. The method includes: An electronic device determines to start a detection based on a state of a display screen, a state of an optical proximity sensor, and an incoming call situation. During the detection, if target biological feature information is detected by the electronic device, the electronic device may adjust an incoming call volume. Therefore, a convenient and fast incoming call volume adjustment mode is provided, which enables a user to adjust the incoming call volume without operating the electronic device. Moreover, the electronic device starts the detection when a specific condition is satisfied, thereby effectively reducing power consumption while ensuring time relevancy and high efficiency of the detection.

According to a method for pushing a notification provided in some embodiments of the present disclosure, a to-be-notified event is obtained; a first notification condition and a second notification condition are determined; a first notification page is displayed on the display when the first notification condition is met, to display, to a user, first association information when the first notification condition is met, for example, event status information, to-be-executed behavior information, and operation association information; and a second notification page is displayed on the display when the second notification condition is met after the first notification page is displayed, to display, to the user, second association information when the second notification condition is met. A plurality of notification pages are pushed for a to-be-notified event, and each notification page is pushed when a notification condition is met as the event develops.

A method for switching off communication screen to avoid false triggering based on a mobile terminal and system employing the same are described. The method comprises: controlling the mobile terminal to switch off the touch-screen and enter a communication gesture mode when the mobile terminal is detected to be in the communication mode and there is no touch operation in the mobile terminal during a predetermined interval; and acquiring a gesture operation instruction of a user and controlling the mobile terminal to perform a plurality of corresponding operations based on a preconfigured gesture operation instruction. The present invention switches off the communication screen to avoid false triggering.
