Wherein the first presentation area 51 displays "whether to approve the display device background automatic muting system upgrade policy". The position of the selector in the user interface or the positions of the controls in the user interface may be moved by user input operating the control device to change the selection of the different controls. For example, the selector 54 indicates that the consent control 52 is selected.

It should be noted that the widgets refer to visual objects displayed in respective presentation areas of the user interface in the display apparatus 200 to represent corresponding contents such as icons, thumbnails, video clips, links, etc., and can provide the user with various conventional program contents received through data broadcasting, and various application and service contents set by a content manufacturer.

The display forms of the controls are generally diversified. For example, the controls may include textual content and/or images for displaying thumbnails related to the textual content, or video clips related to the text. As another example, the control can be text and/or an icon of the application.

It should also be noted that the selector is used to indicate that any one of the controls has been selected, such as the focus object. In one aspect, the control may be selected or controlled by controlling the movement of the focus object displayed in the display apparatus 200 according to an input of the user through the control apparatus 100. Such as: the user may select and control the controls by controlling the movement of the focus object between the controls through the directional keys on the control device 100.

In fig. 5, after the user presses the enter key on the control device, the user agrees to the display device background automatic silencing system upgrade policy, and the server can directly upgrade to the target version without prompting the user when the server has the deployment upgrade policy. When the user presses the direction key on the control device, the selector indicates that the disagreement control 53 is selected, and presses the confirmation key, the user is indicated that the user disagrees with the display device background automatic silencing system upgrading strategy, and the user needs to be prompted when the server deploys the upgrading strategy.

As shown in fig. 6, the display device may provide a user interface diagram of system upgrade settings to the display, including an "update detect" control 61, a "USB upgrade" control 62, and a "background automatic silent system upgrade policy" control 63. When the user selects the "background automatic silent system upgrade strategy" control 63 and presses the confirmation key of the control device, the state of the background automatic silent system upgrade strategy can be changed. If the upgrading strategy of the current background automatic silent system is in an open state, the upgrading strategy of the automatic silent system can be closed after a confirmation key is pressed; if the current background automatic silent system upgrading strategy is in a closed state, the automatic silent system upgrading strategy can be started after a confirmation key is pressed.

As shown in FIG. 7, the display device may provide a user interface diagram of a system upgrade prompt to the display, including a second presentation area 71, an "upgrade immediately" control 72, a "remind me next" control 73, a "never remind me" control 74, and a selector 54. Wherein the second presentation area 71 shows "find new system software version, upgrade performed". When the user selects the "upgrade immediately" control 72 and presses the enter key of the control device, the system upgrade interface may be entered directly, as shown in fig. 8. In FIG. 8, after the user selects the "BACKGROUND EXECUTION" control 81 and presses the OK key, the system upgrade may run in the background and the user may use other functions of the display device. When the user selects the "remind me next time" control 73 and presses the enter key, the system upgrade prompt interface disappears, and the system upgrade prompt interface is not popped up during the operation of the display device this time. When the user selects the "never remind me" control 74 and presses the enter key, the system upgrade prompt interface disappears and the upgrade version prompt interface will not pop up.

OTA (Over-the-Air Technology) refers to a Technology in which an intelligent device downloads an upgrade package Over a network while completing an upgrade of the version of the entire software. Smart device manufacturers provide continuous software update services to end users via OTA technology, enabling end users to enjoy the latest software technology and the latest experience of use.

At present, an A/B seamless upgrade architecture is adopted for a display device smart television platform, and the definition of seamless upgrade focuses on a 'seamless' two-character mode, namely, in the process that a user normally uses a television, the upgrade package installation is completed through a background independent upgrade package installation interface (namely, erasing and writing of a read-only partition are equivalent to understanding of system upgrade); the A/B seamless upgrading structure is composed of the upgrading package installation interface and two sets of independent systems of the Slot A and the Slot B, the Slot B is updated based on the running Slot A when the current system is supposed to run in the Slot A and the system is upgraded, and after the Slot B is finished, the system is automatically switched to the Slot B system only by once direct current or alternating current restart, and the latest software can be enjoyed.

When a display equipment manufacturer upgrades the display equipment system, a system upgrade user interface prompt box is popped up to show the consent of the terminal user, and only when the user agrees the system upgrade, the display equipment manufacturer can carry out the system upgrade on the display equipment of the terminal user. And when the user is required to agree, a prompt box of the system upgrading user interface is necessarily popped up. However, when the display device is in the market mode, no salespersons exist in some national sales places, the display device can automatically enter the market mode at the moment, built-in pictures and built-in videos in the market mode are automatically played, the system is popped up for upgrading reminding at the moment, and the upgrading reminding cannot be confirmed through the input of the remote controller. In addition, when the display device is in the karaoke mode, the user can sing songs by using the microphone, and the user experience can be seriously influenced by popping up the system upgrading prompt.

In order to solve the above technical problem, an embodiment of the present application provides an upgrade prompting method.

As shown in fig. 9, the method includes:

step S901: monitoring whether an upgrading strategy is deployed in a server;

in some embodiments, the OTA process monitors whether a network upgrade policy is deployed in the server in the network connected state.

And if the server is not monitored to have the deployment upgrading strategy, the OTA process is ended, and the process conducts self-destruct.

And if the deployment upgrading strategy is monitored to exist in the server, executing the step S902.

Step S902: judging whether a silent upgrade strategy is started or not;

in some embodiments, a menu of the silent upgrade policy is added in the boot navigation of the first boot in the user mode, as shown in fig. 5, to actively prompt the user whether to agree with the silent upgrade policy. And when the user selects to agree, namely the silent upgrade strategy is started, setting the mark bit of the silent upgrade strategy as true, and when the user selects to disagree, namely the silent upgrade strategy is closed, setting the mark bit of the silent upgrade strategy as false. The system software updating service aims at solving the problems encountered by a terminal user in the process of using the intelligent display equipment, so that the user can obtain better use experience and the data of the user cannot be cleared; and simultaneously, inquiring whether the user selects the background silent upgrade strategy, wherein the user can select 'agreement' or 'disagreement'. The aim of 'one-time selection and multiple upgrading' can be achieved by adding the menu for the user to select, so that the background automatic silent upgrading strategy can be executed in the life cycle of the whole display equipment, and the user experience is improved.

In some embodiments, the silent upgrade policy flag bit may be a persistence.

In some embodiments, in order to facilitate the user to view and change the "background silent upgrade policy" at any time, a user interface display menu is added in the setting page, as shown in fig. 6, and the user can view and change the system upgrade policy at any time in linkage with the silent upgrade policy menu in the power-on navigation. When the starting navigation user selects to agree with the background silent automatic upgrading strategy, setting the background silent upgrading strategy of the page to be in an open state; and when the starting navigation user selects the background silent automatic upgrading strategy which is not agreed, setting the background silent upgrading strategy of the page to be in a closed state. Meanwhile, the user can enter a setting page to change own selection at any time. And when the user turns on the silent upgrade strategy, setting the mark bit of the silent upgrade strategy as true, and when the user turns off the silent upgrade strategy, setting the mark bit of the silent upgrade strategy as false.

In some embodiments, the method for determining whether the silent upgrade policy is turned on is to identify whether the flag bit of the silent upgrade policy is true or false, i.e., whether the attribute value of the quiet. If the attribute value of the persistence. vt. user. agrress is true, the silent upgrade strategy is started; if the property value of persistence. vt. user. agness is not true, the silent upgrade policy is closed.

If the silent upgrade policy is closed, step S903 is performed.

Step S903: acquiring an upgraded target version number;

in some embodiments, the target version number of the upgrade may be obtained from a server.

In some embodiments, step S903 may be performed before step S902.

Step S904: judging whether the target version number is set as a version no longer reminded by a user;

in some embodiments, the user may select an option that never prompts the upgrade in the previous upgrade prompt, and after selecting the option, the target version number is saved in a database that is not reminded any more, that is, the target version number is set as the version that is not reminded any more by the user, and the prompt interface of the version that is upgraded this time does not appear any more.

In some embodiments, the method of determining whether the target version number has not been set by the user to a no longer reminded version comprises: and judging whether the database which is not reminded any more has the target version number of the upgrade. If the target version number of the upgrade exists in the database which is not reminded any more, the target version number is set as a version which is not reminded any more by the user; and if the target version number of the upgrade does not exist in the database which is not reminded any more, the target version number is not set as the version which is not reminded any more by the user.

And if the target version number is set as a version no longer to be reminded by the user, the OTA upgrading process is ended, and the process is self-destructed.

If the target version number is not set as the no-more-reminder version by the user, step S905 is performed.

Step S905: acquiring a current system operation mode;

in some embodiments, the system operation mode may be a current display of a usage scenario of the device, such as a return to a default home page, a mall mode, a hotel mode, a home monitoring mode, a karaoke mode, a yoga mode, and the like.

Step S906: judging whether the current system operation mode is a disturbing mode;

if the current system operation mode is the disturbance-enabled mode, step S907 is executed.

Step S907: and controlling the display to display an upgrade prompt interface.

In some embodiments, the interruptible mode includes returning to a default home page, returning to a home page of an application, and the like. When the system operation mode is the disturbance mode, the OTA process pops up an upgrade prompt interface at the first time to inquire whether the user performs system upgrade, as shown in fig. 7.

Step S908 is performed in response to an immediate upgrade instruction input by the user.

Step S908: and controlling the display to display a system upgrading progress user interface.

In some embodiments, in FIG. 7, the display displays a system upgrade progress user interface, as shown in FIG. 8, upon user selection of an immediate upgrade. In fig. 8, the user may select the background execution and transfer to the background for upgrading until the upgrade package is successfully installed. And after the upgrade package is successfully installed, the OTA upgrade process is ended, and the process is self-destructed.

In response to the upgrade no longer alert instruction input by the user, step S909 is executed.

Step S909: the target version number is set to the no longer alert version.

In some embodiments, in fig. 7, after the user selects to remind me no longer, the target version number of the upgrade is saved into the database which is not reminded any more, and the upgrade prompt interface of the upgrade version does not pop up. And (4) finishing the OTA upgrading process and self-destructing the process.

If the current system operation mode is the non-disturbing mode, step S910 is executed.
