An electronic device includes a display, and at least one controller that, when an operation to cancel limitation of operations of the electronic device is detected, is configured to cancel the limitation of operations and presents a first screen on the display. The at least one controller is further configured to present a second screen which is different from the first screen on the display when the operation to cancel the limitation of operations is an operation with a thumb.

Mobile device cases are provided which, in a first embodiment, selectively limit a user's ability to control the user's own mobile electronic device. The case includes front and rear portions joined together and defining therein an opening for receiving a mobile electronic device, such as a mobile phone. A locking mechanism is provided for selectively securing the opening in a first locked position to prevent operational access to the mobile electronic device by the user until a predetermined condition is met. The case includes an indicia of time visible to the user during the period of time of prevented operational access. In a further embodiment, a case is provided with first and second polymeric shells each having an interior and an exterior surface thereon and connected together by at least one hinge portion. The first and second shell portions form a cavity of sufficient size to cover a mobile electronic device sufficiently to prevent access by its user. Tamper resistant and ultrasonic sensor defeating mobile device case embodiments are also contemplated by this invention.

A method for packaging fingerprint sensing chips and a fingerprint sensing module using the method are disclosed. The method includes the steps of: A. providing a number of PCBs for packaging fingerprint sensing chips, wherein the PCBs are connected in a form of a panel before cutting; each PCB located in the periphery has a protruding structure on a top surface thereof; each protruding structure connects to adjacent protruding structures to form an cofferdam body; B. mounting a fingerprint sensing chip and other electronic components for each PCB to form a number of PCBAs; C. fixing the PCBAs so that the top surfaces of the fingerprint sensing chips are on the same level substantially; D. dispensing a liquid packaging material to a space enclosed by the cofferdam body; E. curing the liquid packaging material; and F. cutting the connected PCBAs and removing the protruding structure to form independent PCBAs.

There is disclosed a communication device. The communications device includes a radio transceiver for transmitting and receiving radio transmissions and a push-to-talk toggle, integral to the communication device, for enabling capture and transmission of audio when the push-to-talk toggle is engaged and for disabling capture and transmission of audio when the push-to-talk toggle is disengaged. The push-to-talk lock toggle is integral to the communication device, and disables capture and transmission of audio and disabling engagement of the push-to-talk toggle while the push-to-talk lock toggle is enabled.

A system and apparatus for selectively limiting user control of a mobile electronic device are provided. In an embodiment, the apparatus may be a case sized to receive a mobile electronic device, the case having a locking means to at least partially secure an opening thereof. When engaged, the locking means may be physically impenetrable by the user of the mobile electronic device and may further be configured to engage and disengage in the presence of one or more pre-determined conditions. For example, the lock may engage when the case is detected within a certain geographical region or even during a specified time. It is contemplated that providing disclosed systems and apparatuses may reduce undesirable behavior at communal events by eliminating distractions posed by mobile electronic devices and preventing unauthorized recordings, which together may enhance overall engagement at and enjoyment of such events.
