Abstract: A method for controlling an electronic device includes determining a software application that is running in the electronic device. Pressing information in relation to a predetermined physical button of the electronic device is detected and a probability of use of each of buttons corresponding to the software application is obtained by searching a preset list according to the software application. An operation is performed according to the pressing information and the probability of use of each of buttons corresponding to the software application.

Abstract: In a sleeping interface rendering method, the computing device is currently in a running status is recognized. A request is received to cause the computing device to enter a sleep mode. Currently running data of the computing device is obtained. Time required to store the obtained currently running date is calculated, the obtained data is storing simultaneity. A minification pace of the predefined picture is determined according to the calculated time in the process when the computing device enters a sleep mode. Lastly, a minifying process of the predefined picture is displayed according to the determined minification pace.

Abstract: A control method for displaying a user interface of an electronic device includes obtaining movement parameters of the electronic device detected by a detection device and determining whether the movement of the electronic device is caused by a tilting operation. If the movement of the electronic device is caused by a tilting operation, an interrupt signal including a movement direction of the electronic device is generated. A new user interface is determined and switched to be displayed on the display screen if an amount of multiple continuous interrupt signals including a same movement direction is more than a preset value within a first preset time.

Abstract: An electronic device and display method includes sensing plates mounted on the electronic device and configured to generate signals when the electronic device is handheld. Programs cause at least one processor to analyzes the signals and thus the manner in which the electronic device is handheld. The method displays an interface according to the manner in which the device is handheld.

Abstract: A help seeking method is provided. The method includes: receiving servable help information from a helper and help seeking information from a help seeker and stored them in at least one storage device of the server, the servable help information including servable help type, contact information and a current geographic position of the helper, and the help seeking information including needed help type, contact information and a current geographic position of the help seeker; searching servable help information stored in the storage device which is corresponding to the received help seeking information to determine a preliminary confirmed helper; sending the help seeking information to the preliminary confirmed helper; receiving feedback from the preliminary conformed helper; determining a finally confirmed helper based on the feedback; and sending the contact information and the current geographic position of one of the finally confirmed helper and the help seeker to the other.

Abstract: A control system and method for controlling user interfaces on an electronic device are provided. The control system includes a processor configured to execute instructions stored in a storage unit to: determine whether a rotation angle of the electronic device is in an angle range; create a rotated user interface group; create a first planar coordinate system on a rotated user interface of the rotated user interface group; define a first region which the rotated user interface is rotated an angle of the rotation angle of the electronic device; create a second planar coordinate system on the rotated user interface group; define a second region which has a same region as that of the first region; and display the contents on the second region.

Abstract: A method for zooming in content displayed on a touch screen comprises detecting the touch track of a touch on the touch screen and determining whether the touch track encloses a graphic. A current display mode of the touch screen when the touch track does enclose a graphic is identified and the content within the bounds of the enclosed graphic according to the current display mode of the touch screen is magnified. An electronic device using the above method is also provided.

Abstract: A customer terminal is provided. The customer terminal includes a receiving module and a decryption module. The receiving module receives an encrypted digital content from a database server connected thereto. A predetermined encryption key encrypts the encrypted digital content. The decryption module decrypts the encrypted digital content utilizing hardware information from the customer terminal. A database server and a protection method are also provided to prevent an unauthorized customer terminal from copying digital contents.

Abstract: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes an input unit, a display unit and a storage unit. The storage unit stores a product function list and a plurality of UI profile files. Each of the UI profile files defines one display format. A UI (user interface, UI) establishing module activates a function of the electronic device for establishing a UI. A product function list loading module loads the product function list from the storage unit. A product function list parsing module parses the loaded product function list. A user interface profile file loading module selectively loads the UI profile file from the storage unit. A user interface generation module displays the parsed product function list on the display unit according to the display format of the selective UI profile file, and links the generated menu interfaces to generate a series of user interfaces.
