In the prior art, various inconveniences occur when a user who is not familiar with the use of a smartphone, especially a user who makes a call for a long period of time or a user who can only send a short message, uses the smartphone. And there is unfamiliarity. Today's smartphones are rich in functions, and there are a wide variety of mobile phone APP choices and types. If these users' in-use erroneous operations pose a significant risk to their mobile phone security settings, they will be further disadvantaged in operating their smartphones, and erroneous operations will result in loss of personal privacy information or property. .. Also, in this case, the user does not know how to reset the security settings.

To solve the above problems, this disclosure discloses a method for resetting the security settings of a smartphone.

By the above-mentioned solutions, the present disclosure realizes a method and a system thereof in which a user-friendly and non-smartphone-savvy user can easily reset the security settings of a smartphone.

It is the schematic of the method in one Example of this disclosure. It is the schematic of the system in one Example of this disclosure.

In order for those skilled in the art to understand the technical solutions disclosed in the present disclosure, the technical solutions in each embodiment will be described below in combination with the examples and related drawings. The examples described are only partial examples of the present disclosure, not all examples. The terms "first", "second", etc. used in the present disclosure are used to distinguish between different objects, but are not intended to describe a particular order. Also, "including" and "having" and any modifications thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion.

The terms appearing in various parts of the specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, and are not examples or alternative embodiments that are exclusively independent of each other. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

With reference to Figure 1, the method for resetting the security settings of the smartphone is
With step S100 of detecting whether or not the smartphone is placed on a table and flipped at least 360 degrees by the front camera and the rear camera of the smartphone within the first preset time after the smartphone turns off the screen. ,
If so, it includes step S200 to reset the security settings of the smartphone.

Misoperations occur in the process of using smartphones by users who are not familiar with using smartphones, especially those who make calls even after long-term use or who can only send short messages. It is easy to destroy the original usage environment, especially the security environment. For example, if you accidentally turn off your cell phone and uninstall security-related software, your cell phone faces significant security risks and can result in the loss of personal privacy information or property. When users become aware of this issue, how do they launch, reinstall, or reset their security software, such as activating antivirus software or reinstalling the latest version of antivirus software? Or often don't know how to prevent privacy files from being improperly cloud-backed up by other third-party applications.

In the above embodiment, the front camera and the rear camera cleverly detect whether or not the smartphone is placed on a table and flipped at least 360 degrees, and if it is flipped at least 360 degrees, the security setting of the smartphone is reset.

In order to prevent an improper reset of the security setting due to an erroneous operation, the first limiting condition of a preset time is introduced in the above embodiment. If the first preset time is exceeded, step S1000 is not executed, and therefore step S200 is not triggered no matter how many times the mobile phone placed on the table is flipped, so that the security setting due to an erroneous operation is performed. Avoid improper resets.

Preferably, the first preset time is 3 seconds or 5 seconds. The first preset time may be another suitable time, and the user can be allowed to change the first preset time. The user can reasonably set the first preset time according to the time required for himself to complete the 360-degree rotation of the mobile phone.

The security settings may be the last security settings saved by the user, and multiple historical security settings can be maintained, and in any case any security setting may be set to the default security setting, or the last one. You can replace the security settings with any of the security settings.

The security settings are
The first type of setting, unlock setting (for example, you need to unlock with character password or gesture password, or fingerprint),
The second type of setting, mobile phone recovery settings (eg, activate the mobile phone recovery function and facilitate the setting of the corresponding secure mobile phone number to receive secure short messages),
Security software settings that are the third type of settings (for example, check and confirm the installation of brand A antivirus software, brand B prank phone shield software),
The fourth type of setting is the setting of other third-party applications installed by the user (for example, connecting to a network with a mobile data network to download files, the network disk software automatically syncing albums, etc. Prohibits address book software from automatically synchronizing address books, etc.),
It can include any one or a combination of other security settings for the smartphone operating system, which is the fifth type of setting.

Taking the example of rechecking and installing anti-virus software, this disclosure means that if the user discovers that the anti-virus software has been uninstalled but does not know how to install it, he or she will carry it. Simply place the phone on the table and rotate it at least 360 degrees to automatically trigger a check against anti-virus software, and if uninstalled, automatically update the latest version of security software by the URL or ip address of the built-in server. After downloading and installing the software, start the security software and execute a full scan. That is, the disclosure can reset the relevant security settings in a user-friendly manner, which is very convenient for users who have a weak ability to accept new ones.

Furthermore, taking the example of resetting the mobile phone recovery function, this is how the user himself can use the mobile phone recovery function well for users who are not accustomed to operating the smartphone and are not familiar with it. Even if you don't know if you want to set and activate it, if you are aware that you need to activate the mobile phone recovery feature, you can just flip the mobile phone 360 degrees on the table.

Preferably, the security settings are further backed up to a cloud server and synced to a smartphone. Even if the security settings of the smartphone are lost or the data is damaged, it is still possible to ensure a normal reset of the security settings.

In another embodiment, step S100 is
If a single front-to-back or back-to-front flip of the mobile phone is detected, activate the front and rear cameras and take a second preset time photo. Step S101 that controls the front camera and the rear camera so as to acquire once, and
The step S102 is included in which it is determined whether or not the photographs taken by the front camera and the rear camera include photographs of two approximate scenes.

The above embodiment illustrates how the front camera and the rear camera determine that the mobile phone has been flipped 360 degrees.

First, since there are many means for detecting one inversion of a mobile phone, only some conventional means are listed here without listing them in detail. For example, a three-dimensional acceleration value is acquired by a gravity sensor, a direction sensor, etc., and after one inversion is detected for the first time, whether or not one inversion occurs next by a gravity sensor, a direction sensor, etc. is detected. Although it can be continued, this disclosure is not intended to continue to use such means. Since the scope of application of means for detecting inversion such as gravity sensor and direction sensor is narrow, in order to improve universality and accuracy, the front camera and the rear camera are used for further judgment in this disclosure, and the details are as follows. refer.

Next, in this embodiment, immediately after a single inversion is detected, the front and rear cameras are activated and a second preset time (eg 100 ms, 50 ms, or longer or shorter second). The front camera and the rear camera are controlled so that the photograph taken is acquired once every (preset time). It is better not to make a shutter sound when shooting.

Next, all the pictures of the first group taken by the front camera are compared with all the pictures of the second group taken by the rear camera, and one picture of the first group and another picture of the second group are compared. Determine if there is an approximate scene in.

For example, typically, if the table is not transparent, assuming that the front and rear cameras are activated immediately after the user flips the mobile phone once (ie, flips 180 degrees), in this case, The front camera and rear camera all take pictures immediately. And, regardless of whether the front camera or the rear camera is facing the table, one camera should take one almost dark photo or a dark photo, and if the mobile phone keeps flipping at least 180 degrees, another The camera inevitably flips over to the table, which takes a single near-dark or dark photo. As a result, there is always an approximate scene in one of the first group photos taken by the front camera and another of the second group photos taken by the rear camera. However, it is almost dark or a dark scene.

What's more special is that if the table is transparent, there is a point where both the front and rear cameras are heading to the table during the 360 degree inversion, and when taken at the second preset time, the front and rear cameras The camera has a chance to take a table and there are pictures taken in the same scene. Assuming that it continues to flip 180 degrees (cumulatively flips 540 degrees), there are at least two photos of similar scenes in the front camera photo group, and so does the rear camera photo group. Therefore, it can be determined that the photograph of the approximate scene of the two groups of photographs is inverted by at least 360 degrees. In addition to the chance to take a picture of the table, the scene on the opposite side of the table is also taken alternately by the front camera and the rear camera, and it is also used to compare whether or not there is a picture of the approximate scene. Can be done. Further, other than taking a scene of the table and the opposite side, both sides of the axis may be taken at the second preset time with respect to the axis perpendicular to the table, and these pictures are similarly approximated. It can be used to determine if there is a scene, and similarly, it can be used to determine if it is flipped at least 360 degrees. It should be noted that the means for taking such a photograph is not limited to the inclination angle of the table and the horizontal plane. There are many conventional technical means for determining whether or not there is an approximate scene in two photographs, both of which can be applied or can be used in the present disclosure after being easily modified, and the present disclosure is also two photographs. It is not intended to propose new means for determining if a photo has an approximate scene. Therefore, the description of such means will be omitted here.

In combination with the plurality of examples described above, the technical means for determining whether or not the front camera, the rear camera inverts at least 360 degrees in the present disclosure is clearly more accurate than the gravity sensor, the direction sensor, and the like. Moreover, it has a wide range of application, and it can be understood that it is not limited to various environments such as a magnetic field environment, an inclination angle between a table and a horizontal plane, and bumps. If bumps occur, it is only necessary to perform a shake process or an unshake process on the photograph taken. It is also possible to understand why it is necessary to invert at least 360 degrees from the plurality of examples described above. The first 180 degree reversal is used to activate the front and rear cameras and take a picture immediately, and the second 180 degree reversal is whether the pictures taken by the front and rear cameras have similar scenes. It is used to determine whether or not, and when the third inversion of 180 degrees is performed, a photograph of a similar scene can be found in the front camera and rear camera groups. Further, after the step S200 is executed, the above-mentioned photograph taken by the front camera and the rear camera can be deleted.

Further, preferably, the relevant settings may be set by the smartphone operating system's XML or JSON file or other script. Upon resetting, the operating system may access the associated file or script stored in the associated path and execute the instructions in it.

In another embodiment, after step S200 is executed, the next step is further executed.

In step S302, all applications running in the background are terminated.

If your smartphone is running many programs in the background, and if the user accidentally operates it, especially if the mobile phone is slow and confusing, the security settings will be restored and then run in the background. By terminating all the applications that have been made, it is possible to improve the user experience and ensure that the mobile phone operates smoothly. If you need to run anti-virus software, Naughty Phone Shield software in the background all the time, you can selectively quit applications running in the background.

More preferably, the smartphone operating system automatically prompts the mobile phone to restart if it determines that the mobile phone is in a frozen state. This is more advantageous for users who are not familiar with smartphones, as users may not know how to deal with freezes.

In another embodiment, after step S200 is executed, the next step is further executed.

In step S303, the network signal including the communication signal and the data signal of the mobile phone is reset.

When the operation of the mobile phone in the above embodiment is slow, the communication signal is not good or the communication signal is separated from the network (for example, GSM (registered trademark) network, CDMA network) as compared with the case where the mobile phone is in the frozen state. , Or leaving the 4th generation communication network), or the data signal is not good (eg, the user mistakenly manipulates to turn off mobile data or Wifi, and the user mistakenly manipulates the flight mode. When booting), reset the network signal quickly to solve the problem that the user is confused and does not know how to handle it. It is readily understood that the reset of the present disclosure refers to an automatic reset in order to resolve the user usage problems described above.

Means for resetting the communication signal of the mobile phone include, but are not limited to, disabling the sim card, re-enabling the sim card, or directly restarting the sim card module of the mobile phone.

Means for resetting the mobile data signal are to turn off mobile data, enable mobile data, or restart the mobile data module of the mobile phone directly, turn off Wifi, re-enable Wifi, Alternatively, it includes, but is not limited to, restarting the Wifi module directly, or enabling flight mode and disabling flight mode.

It should be noted that the reset can execute the reset instruction related to the reset by the script, and all the instructions can be effective immediately after the execution.

For each of the above embodiments, after resetting the relevant settings, it is possible to notify the user that the reset of the relevant signal or function has already been completed, but it is not necessary to notify, depending on the specific needs. decide.

In another embodiment, after step S200 is executed, the next step is further executed.

In step S304, the font of the mobile phone is set to the big size mode.

It should be noted that the embodiment is for a user who requires eye protection.
