Abstract: A mobile device includes a NOR flash memory for storing settings of the mobile device, a NOR flash memory controller having a memory storing data and/or program code for controlling operations of the NOR flash memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and the NOR flash memory for executing the program code. The program code when executed by the processor causes the memory controller to sequentially write to a sequentially first block of each sector of the NOR flash memory, then write to a sequentially second block of each sector of the NOR flash memory, and when all blocks of all sectors of the NOR flash memory have been written, the memory controller erases a sequentially first sector and then writes to the sequentially first block of the sequentially first sector.

Abstract: A user interface for an electronic device has a pen based input device (256) that captures a collection of coordinates that correspond to handwritten information. According to certain embodiments, a processor (260) carries out a command recognition process in which a command gesture (124, 130, 134, 138, 142, 144, 148) is recognized (210) in the collection of coordinates. The command gesture identifies a set of coordinates form at least a portion of the collection of coordinates that represent a command (120). The identified coordinates are then extracted (220) and translated to a command (230) for execution (244).
