Abstract: A method for DNS processing is provided. The method is executed by an electronic device and includes the following steps: determining a plurality of TTL values, wherein each of the TTL values corresponds to one of a plurality of operating states of the electronic device, and determining whether to remove an entry from a local DNS cache in the electronic device or not according to the TTL value corresponding to the current state among the operating states of the electronic device.

Abstract: A mobile device is provided. The mobile device includes a transceiver and a processor. The transceiver receives wireless signals of a plurality of cells of a mobile network. The cells include a serving cell and at least a neighbor cell. The processor is coupled to the transceiver. The processor performs neighbor cell measurement periodically or in response to a trigger event based on the wireless signal of the neighbor cell. The processor suspends the neighbor cell measurement when the serving cell is not changed for a period of time and a signal quality of the serving cell is equal to or higher than a threshold.

Abstract: A mobile device is provided. The mobile device includes a modem and a processor. The modem establishes a network connection to a wireless communication network. The processor is coupled to the modem. The processor executes an application and determines a period of sleep time associated with the mobile device. The processor notifies the application that the network connection is deactivated during the sleep time and notifies the application that the network connection is activated outside the sleep time. However, the modem still maintains the network connection without deactivating the network connection during the sleep time.

Abstract: A mobile device is provided, which includes a modem processor and an application processor. The modem processor determines the channel quality between the mobile device and a wireless communication network. The modem processor calculates a counting value every time when determining the channel quality. The modem processor determines the overhead for data transmission between the mobile device and the wireless communication network according to the counting value. The modem processor determines the overhead to be low when the counting value reaches a preset value. The modem processor reduces the time for the counting value to reach the preset value when conducting a handover for the mobile device. The application processor allows or postpones a data synchronization started by an application with a server through the wireless communication network according to at least one preset condition. For example, one of the preset conditions is the aforementioned overhead.

Abstract: A power saving method for a mobile device in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The power saving method comprises obtaining a first parameter according to a first signal transmitted between the mobile device and a first network; estimating a first power consumption of the mobile device in the first network according to the first parameter and a first radio access technology (RAT) employed in the first network; determining whether the first network is suitable according to at least a comparison of the first power consumption with a second power consumption of the mobile device in a second network, wherein the second network employs a second RAT different from the first RAT; and switching to a the second network when the first network is not suitable.
