  • Publication number: 20150138382
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide methods, apparatus, and electronic devices for image capturing. An exemplary image capturing method can include first acquiring image information via a camera contained in an electronic device and then detecting whether a shake amplitude of the electronic device is within a pre-set range. When the shake amplitude of the electronic device is detected within the pre-set range, the image information acquired by the camera can be captured. An exemplary image capturing apparatus can include an acquisition module for acquiring image information; a first detection module for detecting whether a shake amplitude of an electronic device is within a pre-set range; and a capturing module for capturing the image information, when the first detection module detects that the shake amplitude of the electronic device is within the pre-set range.

  • Publication number: 20150143291
    Abstract: The present application discloses a method for controlling data items displayed on a touch-sensitive display of a computing device. The method includes, at the computing device, displaying a plurality of data items on a graphical user interface of the touch display, and detecting a sequence of finger gestures on the touch display. The sequence of finger gestures further includes a finger down gesture immediately followed by a finger moving gesture immediately followed by a finger up gesture. The method further includes in accordance with a determination that the sequence of finger gestures satisfy predefined conditions, identifying a set of the plurality of data items as being associated with the sequence of finger gestures and displaying a plurality of operations on the touch display, wherein the plurality of operations are determined at least in part based on an attribute of the identified set of data items.

  • Publication number: 20150141150
    Abstract: A method is performed at a server system comprising one or more processors and memory. The server system executes a task being performed on a first mobile client according to instructions from the first mobile client. The server system receives a handover request from the first mobile client, which indicates that the first mobile client has suspended performance of the task and includes information identifying one or more second mobile clients who are candidates to assume performance of the task. The server system sends, to at least a subset of the second mobile clients, a request to assume performance of the task and receives, from a respective second mobile client of the subset of the second mobile clients, an indication that the respective second mobile client intends to assume performance of the task. The server system executes the task according to instructions received from the respective second mobile client.

  • Publication number: 20150126149
    Abstract: Devices, terminals and methods are provided for contacts management. For example, one or more first contacts included in a communication log are received, wherein the communication log includes a call log or an SMS log; contact frequencies of the first contacts are calculated based on at least information associated with the communication log; one or more second contacts are selected to be managed from the first contacts based on at least information associated with the contact frequencies; if the second contacts exist in an address book is determined; and in response to the second contacts existing in the address book, the second contacts in the address book are extracted as frequent contacts; and a list of frequent contacts are generated based on at least information associated with the frequent contacts.

  • Publication number: 20140288922
    Abstract: The present disclosure is applied to the field of computer technology and provides a method and apparatus for man-machine conversation, including a method for man-machine conversation which is applied to a server, comprising: receiving conversation preceding data transmitted by a first client; acquiring conversation succeeding data matched with the conversation preceding data, the conversation succeeding data including first data collected from at least one second client by forwarding the conversation preceding data to the at least one second client; and returning the conversation succeeding data to the first client. In the present disclosure, for conversation preceding data from a client, the man-machine conversation is completed by collecting data from other client(s) to match corresponding conversation succeeding data and returning the conversation succeeding data to the client transmitting the conversation preceding data.
