Detailed Description

For a dual-card electronic device, a user inserts a dual card into a mobile phone, and in a case where a main card resides in a 5G network of an independent network (SA) and a sub card resides in a 4G network, which is a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network, an example of icons of the main card and the sub card displayed on a display interface of the electronic device is shown in fig. 1.

The user browses the web page using the main card, the sub card is in an idle state, and icons of the main card and the sub card are also shown in fig. 1.

In some cases, another example of icons for the primary and secondary cards is shown in FIG. 2: the icon of the main card is displayed in a funnel shape to indicate that the data service of the main card is unavailable, so as to prompt the user that the main card cannot be used for surfing the internet.

However, the above mechanism has the following loopholes:

if the auxiliary card is triggered to execute the call service, the data service of the main card is not actually affected, that is, the main card can actually surf the internet, and because the above mechanism is used, taking fig. 3 as an example, in the display interface of the electronic device, a situation that the icon of the main card flashes in a funnel shape occurs, that is: the icon of the master card is shown in fig. 1, as a funnel as shown in fig. 2, and then as shown in fig. 1.

Although the funnel-shaped icon is displayed for a short time, it is recognized by human eyes, and therefore, the state indicated by the icon of the main card does not correspond to the actual state of the main card, which may confuse the user and degrade the user experience.

The reason why the status indicated by the icon of the master card does not match the actual status of the master card is shown in fig. 4:

assuming that the main card is on line and the auxiliary card is idle before the time T0, the bottom layer supports the concurrency of Dual-card transceiving and the idle state of the main card on line and the auxiliary card based on the band bang combination of the Dual cards, generates a value of a Dual SIM Dual Standby (DSDA) identifier as 0, and transmits the value to the upper layer.

Assuming that the main card is still idle at time T0, the icons of the main card and the sub card are shown in fig. 1, and in fig. 4, for convenience of description, the icon of the main card is shown as "5G" and the icon of the sub card is shown as "4G".

Suppose that at time T1, the secondary card starts to execute the call service, the upper layer starts to query the DSDA flag value in response to the call service, but because the DSDA flag value is reported from the bottom layer to the upper layer, and there is a certain delay, at time T1, the upper layer has not received the DSDA flag updated from the bottom layer, and the queried DSDA flag value is the DSDA flag value at time T0, that is, the DSDA flag value is 0, which indicates that the electronic device does not support the concurrence of dual-card transceiving, and because the secondary card executes the call service, the primary card cannot access the internet, so that the icon of the primary card is funnel-shaped.

Suppose that at time T2, the bottom layer senses a call service from the upper layer, and updates the DSDA identifier value from 0 to 1 based on the bang combination to support the concurrency of dual-card transceiving and the state of the primary-card internet-access secondary-card call (i.e., the primary card and the secondary card are in a concurrent state).

It is assumed that at time T3, the DSDA id value received by the upper layer and uploaded by the lower layer is 1, which indicates that the electronic device supports concurrent dual-card transceiving. Therefore, the icon of the main card is displayed as "5G" and the icon of the sub card is displayed as "4G".

It can be seen that the electronic device has a delay in obtaining the DSDA status information for displaying the icon, resulting in the icon not being in line with the actual status of the phone card.

Moreover, as can be seen from the above analysis, when the bang combination supports the concurrency of dual card transceiving, the problem that the icon of the main card flashes the funnel is caused, and therefore, the bang combination supports the concurrency of dual card transceiving is a precondition for causing the problem.

For the above reasons, one solution provided in the industry is shown in fig. 5:

assume that at time T0, the electronic device powers up and is web-resident.

At the time of T1, the bottom layer queries the band combination of the primary card and the secondary card, the band combination supports the concurrency of dual-card transceiving, at the time of T2, the bottom layer sets the DSDA flag value to 1 and immediately reports the DSDA flag value to the upper layer, and only reports the DSDA flag value once as long as the band combination is unchanged. Therefore, as long as the band combination is not changed (i.e. the concurrence of dual-card transceiving is supported), the DSDA id queried by the subsequent upper layer has a value of 1, and therefore, at time T3, the primary card icon does not appear as funnel-shaped when the secondary card makes a call.

It can be seen that the solution in the industry only uses band combination as the basis for determining whether to support the concurrency of dual-card transceiving, and does not consider the actual states of the primary card and the secondary card.

Based on this, the above scheme is not suitable for some platforms with service scene limitation, and these platforms have service scene limitation for concurrent transmission and reception of dual cards, that is, in some service scenes, the main card does not support data services, and because the actual state of the main card is not considered by the solution in the industry, in the service limited scenes, even if the main card cannot surf the internet, the funnel is not displayed, and the user experience is also reduced.

Therefore, whether the master card can surf the internet to flash the funnel or the master card cannot surf the internet and also display the icon capable of surfing the internet normally is the result of the fact that the DSDA state information of the displayed icon is not consistent with the actual state of the telephone card, and in order to solve the problem, the following embodiment of the application discloses an icon display method.

The demodulator is used for demodulating the received electromagnetic wave signal into a low-frequency baseband signal. The demodulator then passes the demodulated low frequency baseband signal to a baseband processor for processing. The low frequency baseband signal is processed by the baseband processor and then transferred to the application processor. The application processor outputs a sound signal through an audio device (not limited to the speaker 170A, the receiver 170B, etc.) or displays an image or video through the display screen 194.

In some embodiments, the electronic device employs esims, namely: an embedded SIM card. The eSIM card can be embedded in the electronic device and cannot be separated from the electronic device.

The processor 110 can implement a communication function based on an Open System Interconnection (OSI) model shown in fig. 7 by executing the program code.

In fig. 7, the physical Layer (also called Layer1, L1 for short) mainly defines some electrical characteristics of the communication network, and is responsible for transmitting 0 and 1 electrical signals. The data link Layer (also referred to as the second Layer2, abbreviated as the L2 Layer) processes and transmits the received data packets using ethernet protocols including MAC, RLC, and PDCP. The network Layer (also called Layer3, L3 Layer) processes and transmits the received data packets using Internet Protocol (IP) (including RRC and NAS).

The transport layer processes and transmits the received data packets using a Protocol for a port, such as a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) or a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). The Radio Interface Layer (RIL) is located in the transmission Layer and used for interacting with the at (attention) command with the serial port.

The application layer processes and transmits the received data packets in the data formats corresponding to different application programs. For example, a telephone (Telephony) running at the application layer is used to process and transmit data packets sent by the telephone application or to be received by the telephone application using a data format corresponding to the telephone application.

Based on the communication model shown in fig. 7, the flow of transmitting and applying DSDA status information is as follows:

after sensing that the main card or the auxiliary card executes the service according to the information transmitted by the application layer, the layer L1 generates a DSDA identifier value according to the band combination and the states of the main card and the auxiliary card: the band combination supports the concurrency of the receiving and sending of the double cards, the double cards are both in a service state, the value of the DSDA identification is set to be 1, the concurrency of the receiving and sending of the double cards is supported, and the main card and the auxiliary card are in a concurrency state. The band combination supports the concurrency of dual-card transceiving, one card is in a service state, the other card is in an idle state, and the value of the DSDA mark is set to be 0, which indicates that the concurrency of dual-card transceiving is not supported. The band combination does not support the concurrency of dual-card transceiving, and the value of the DSDA identification is set to be 0, which indicates that the concurrency of dual-card transceiving is not supported. Each time the L1 layer updates the value of the DSDA flag, the latest DSDA flag value is transmitted to the RIL. The RIL transmits the received DSDA identity to Telephony.

When the main card or the auxiliary card executes a certain service, Telephony is triggered to inquire the value of the DSDA identification, and whether the main card can access the internet is determined according to the value of the DSDA identification and the states of the main card and the auxiliary card: the DSDA identification value is 0, and the auxiliary card is in an idle state, so that the main card can access the internet. The value of the DSDA identification is 0, and the auxiliary card executes the conversation service, the main card can not access the internet. The DSDA identification value is 1, and the main card can access the internet.

It is understood that after Telephony determines the status of the main card, a flag bit indicating the status of the main card may be set and transmitted to a display module of an operating system running in the electronic device, and the display module displays an icon of the main card using the flag bit.

The processor 110 runs the program code, and the implemented operating system may be an iOS operating system, an Android open source operating system, a Windows operating system, a grand operating system, or the like.

The communication model shown in fig. 7 is combined with an operating system to implement functions such as communication of an electronic device and icon display of a phone card, and taking an Android open source operating system as an example, as shown in fig. 8:

in some embodiments, the Android system is divided into four layers, an application layer, an application framework layer, an Android runtime (Android runtime) and system library, and a kernel layer from top to bottom.

The application layer may include a series of application packages. Specific application programs can be seen in fig. 8, and are not described in detail here.

The application framework layer provides an Application Programming Interface (API) and a programming framework for the application program of the application layer. The application framework layer includes a number of predefined functions. As shown in fig. 8, the application framework layer may include a window manager, a content provider, a view system, and a phone manager, etc.

The view system includes visual controls such as controls to display text, controls to display pictures, and the like. The view system may be used to build applications. The display interface may be composed of one or more views. For example, a display interface including icons for a phone card may include a view showing text and a view showing pictures.

The phone manager is used to provide communication functions of the electronic device. Such as management of call status (including on, off, etc.). The phone manager corresponds to Telephony shown in fig. 7.

The resource manager provides various resources for the application, such as localized strings, icons, pictures, layout files, video files, and the like.

The Android Runtime comprises a core library and a virtual machine. The Android runtime is responsible for scheduling and managing an Android system. The core library comprises two parts: one part is a function which needs to be called by java language, and the other part is a core library of android. One example of the function is a function for implementing a Radio Interface Layer (RIL) shown in fig. 7, which can communicate with other layers through AT commands.

The system library may include a plurality of functional modules. For example: surface managers (surface managers), Media Libraries (Media Libraries), three-dimensional graphics processing Libraries (e.g., OpenGL ES), 2D graphics engines (e.g., SGL), and the like.

The surface manager is used to manage the display subsystem and provide fusion of 2D and 3D layers for multiple applications.

The media library supports a variety of commonly used audio, video format playback and recording, and still image files, among others. The media library may support a variety of audio-video encoding formats, such as MPEG4, h.264, MP3, AAC, AMR, JPG, PNG, and the like.

The three-dimensional graphic processing library is used for realizing three-dimensional graphic drawing, image rendering, synthesis, layer processing and the like.

The 2D graphics engine is a drawing engine for 2D drawing.

The kernel layer is a layer between hardware and software. The inner core layer at least comprises a display driver, a camera driver, an audio driver and a sensor driver.

It is understood that the functions of L1, L2, and L3 shown in fig. 7 may be implemented in a chip that communicates with the layers shown in fig. 8 through a core layer. Based on this, as shown in fig. 7 and fig. 8, the flow for implementing the transmission of the DSDA status information and displaying the icon of the phone card according to the DSDA status information is as follows:

after the L1 layer generates the value of the DSDA flag (specifically, in the manner described above), the DSDA flag is transmitted to the system library through the kernel layer, and the function for implementing the RIL function (protocol) in the system library transmits the DSDA flag to the phone manager of the application framework layer. The telephone manager determines whether the main card supports data services (i.e. whether to access the internet) according to the value of the DSDA identifier and the states of the main card and the auxiliary card, for example: the DSDA identification value is 0, and the auxiliary card is in an idle state, so that the main card can access the internet. The value of the DSDA identification is 0, and the auxiliary card executes the conversation service, the main card can not access the internet. The DSDA identification value is 1, and the main card can access the internet.

Optionally, the phone management module generates a flag bit according to the state of the main card, and transmits the flag bit to a module that implements a display function in the software framework shown in fig. 8, for example, including but not limited to a system library, a media library, a three-dimensional graphics processing library, a resource manager, and the like, to display an icon of the main card, and the specific implementation of the display is not described again.

Although the Android system is taken as an example in the embodiment of the present application for description, the basic principle is also applicable to electronic devices based on an os, Windows, a hong meng, or other operating systems.

Based on the above description, it is understood that the "bottom layer" shown in fig. 4 and 5 may be the L1 layer shown in fig. 7, and the "top layer" shown in fig. 4 and 5 may be Te lephony shown in fig. 7, or the telephone manager shown in fig. 8.

The icon display method provided by the embodiment of the application improves the functions of the upper layer, and aims to solve the problem that the DSDA state information for displaying the icon of the telephone card is not consistent with the actual state of the telephone card when the auxiliary card executes the telephone service.

Fig. 9 is a display method of an icon provided in an embodiment of the present application, executed by the electronic device, and includes the following steps:

and S1, starting a timer after detecting that the secondary card executes the telephone service.

As shown in connection with fig. 7, in some implementations, S1 is performed by Telephony.

As shown in connection with fig. 8, in some implementations, S1 is performed by the phone manager.

The specific implementation manner of detecting that the secondary card executes the telephone service may be, but is not limited to: it is detected that the secondary card is called or the secondary card originates a caller. The timing manner of the timer includes but is not limited to: a count-down from a certain value to zero, or a count-up from zero, i.e., a count-up, etc.

As shown in fig. 10, assuming that the primary card is on the internet, the secondary card is idle, and the DSDA flag has a value of 0 at time T0, the icon of the primary card is displayed as "5G" and the icon of the secondary card is displayed as "4G". Assume that this step occurs at time T1.

And S2, acquiring DSDA state information.

Referring to fig. 7, after Telephony detects that the sub-card performs the telephone service, information of the telephone service is transferred to the L1 layer, and after the L1 layer senses the telephone service, S2 is performed.

Referring to fig. 8, after the phone manager detects that the sub-card performs the phone service, information of the phone service is transferred to the L1 layer through layers below the application framework layer, and after the L1 layer senses the phone service, S2 is performed.

One example of DSDA status information is the value of the DSDA identification.

Since the secondary card executes the telephone service in this embodiment, in some implementations, a specific implementation manner of the L1 layer for acquiring the DSDA status information is as follows: according to the parallel supporting of the bang combination and the service parallel state of the main card and the auxiliary card (namely the main card executes data service and the auxiliary card executes conversation service), the value of the DSDA identification is set to be 1. Other implementations can be seen in the description of fig. 7, which is not described here.

As shown in fig. 10, since the L1 layer requires Telephony or information issued by a Telephony manager to sense a Telephony service, S2 is performed after S1, and it is assumed to be performed at time T2.

In fig. 10, it is assumed that AT time T3, the L1 layer uploads the updated value of the DSDA flag by AT command:

as shown in fig. 7, after the L1 layer updates the value of the DSDA flag, the DSDA flag is carried in the AT command and transmitted to the RIL. The RIL transmits AT commands carrying the DSDA identity to Telephony.

As shown in fig. 8, after the L1 layer updates the value of the DSDA flag, the DSDA flag is carried in the AT command and transmitted to the telephony manager of the application framework layer through the kernel layer and the system library (RIL protocol).

And S3, before the timing duration of the timer reaches a preset duration threshold, displaying the icon of the main card as a first icon.

The first icon indicates that the main card supports data services. Such as shown in fig. 1-3.

As shown in connection with fig. 10, the duration threshold is not less than the duration of the time that the DSDA flag value is updated by the L1 layer and transmitted to Telephony or the phone manager. It is understood that the duration threshold may be preconfigured in the electronic device based on the duration that the DSDA identity is updated (generated) by the L1 layer and transmitted to the Telephony or phone manager. In this embodiment, an example of the value range of the duration threshold is 100 milliseconds to 200 milliseconds.

As shown in fig. 10, it is assumed that the updated DSDA flag value is received at time T1+ T, and therefore, the icon of the master card is displayed as the first icon before time T1+ T.

It is understood that, since the time length does not reach the time length threshold, the flag bit determined by the upper layer for display is also the flag bit determined according to the value of the DSDA flag at the time T0, and therefore, the icon of the master card is also displayed as the first icon.

Referring to fig. 7, Telephony detects whether the timed duration reaches a preset duration threshold. As shown in fig. 8, the phone manager detects whether the timed duration reaches a preset duration threshold.

One example of the timed duration reaching the preset duration threshold is that the countdown is finished, and another example is that the accumulated duration reaches the duration threshold.

It is to be understood that the order of execution of S2 and S3 is not limited.

And S4, displaying the icon of the main card according to the acquired DSDA state information after the timing duration of the timer reaches a preset duration threshold value.

As shown in fig. 10, the upper layer receives the updated DSDA flag value at time T1+ T, so at time T1+ T, the flag bit is determined according to the DSDA flag value and possibly the states of the primary card and the secondary card, and the flag bit is transmitted to the display module for displaying the icon of the primary card.

As shown in fig. 10, in some implementations, if the updated DSDA flag has a value of 1, the flag bit is determined to be 1, and the display module displays the icon of the host card as a first icon according to that the flag bit is 1, where the first icon indicates that the host card supports the data service. In this case, the problem that the funnel-shaped icon is flashed by the icon of the main card when the sub-card executes the call service can be solved.

In other implementations, the updated DSDA flag may also have a value of 0, for example, if the cell in which the electronic device resides changes between time T1 and time T2, and the bang combination does not support concurrency of dual card transceiving, then L1 sets the DSDA flag to have a value of 0. The upper layer executes the call service according to the DSDA flag value of 0, determines that the flag bit is 0, and the display module displays the icon of the main card as a second icon, for example, the funnel-shaped icon in fig. 1 to 3, according to the flag bit of 0, so as to prompt the user that the main card cannot access the internet. It can be seen that, although the precondition for causing the flashing funnel icon is that the bang combination supports concurrency of dual card transceiving, the method described in the present embodiment is not limited to this precondition.

Comparing fig. 10 with fig. 4, it can be seen that: because the timing of determining the flag bit for displaying the icon of the main card according to the DSDA identifier by the upper layer is set after receiving the DSDA identifier updated by the L1 layer, the problem that the DSDA state information does not accord with the actual state of the telephone card because the DSDA state information acquired by the upper layer is delayed compared with the DSDA state information updated by the lower layer can be solved.

It should be emphasized that the flow shown in fig. 9 solves the above problem by reading the DSDA status information with a delay from the essential cause of the untimely acquisition of the DSDA status, so as to avoid interference in the scenario where the DSDA status information is actually in a concurrent state of non-dual-card transmission and reception, as described above. That is, the flow shown in fig. 9 solves the vulnerability of the mechanism that the host card cannot access the internet by the host card icon, but the means for solving the problem does not affect the execution of the mechanism.

It is to be understood that the icons shown in the above-described illustrations are exemplary and not limiting. For example, the second icon is not limited to a funnel icon. The UI interface in the above illustration is not limited to the above illustration, and may also include other contents, such as power identification, time, and the like.

It should be understood that, the specific implementation manners of the above steps are all exemplified by the frames and modules illustrated in fig. 7 or fig. 8, but the execution subjects of the steps are not limited to these examples.

The embodiment of the application also discloses a computer readable storage medium, wherein a program is stored on the computer readable storage medium, and when the program is executed by computer equipment, the method of the embodiment can be realized.
