Patent number: 12114392Abstract: A wireless device, a network node, a core node and methods therein, for managing reachability of the wireless device. The wireless device starts an AS (Access Stratum) reachable timer when entering an inactive state. If the AS reachable timer expires while still in the inactive state, the wireless device sends to the network node a reachable notification indicating that the wireless device is reachable. If entering a connected state before the AS reachable timer expires, the wireless device stops the AS reachable timer when changing from the inactive state to a connected state. If the core node receives from the network node a not reachable notification indicating that the wireless device is not reachable, the wireless device can be marked as not reachable via paging.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2021Date of Patent: October 8, 2024Assignee: TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET LM ERICSSON (PUBL)Inventors: Oscar Zee, Alexander Vesely, Angelo Centonza, Paul Schliwa-Bertling

Patent number: 12106699Abstract: A display system supporting a privacy function and a display control method are disclosed. The method includes the following. A first light source driving signal is provided to a display through a first signal path of a switch circuit to drive the display to display a first image in a first display mode. A trigger signal is generated in response to a user operation. A second light source driving signal is provided to the display through a second signal path of the switch circuit in response to the trigger signal to drive the display to display a second image in a second display mode. The first signal path is different from the second signal path. A screen brightness of the display in the second display mode is lower than a screen brightness of the display in the first display mode.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2022Date of Patent: October 1, 2024Assignee: Acer IncorporatedInventor: Fang-Wei Chang

Patent number: 12105940Abstract: A computer system displays a first version of a first user interface that includes first user interface objects displayed concurrently with a first background. The first user interface objects include content from a first plurality of applications. In response to detecting a first input, when the first input includes movement in a first direction, the system replaces display of the first version of the first user interface with a second user interface that includes representations of a second plurality of applications. When the first input includes second movement in a second direction, the system replaces display of the first version of the first user interface with display of a second version of the first user interface that includes second user interface objects displayed with a second background. The second user interface objects correspond to a third plurality of applications and include content from the third plurality of applications.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2022Date of Patent: October 1, 2024Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Graham R. Clarke, Eric Lance Wilson, Andrew P. Clymer, Caelan G. Stack, Christopher P. Foss, William M. Tyler, Gregory M. Apodaca
