Further, when the processing module determines that the touch track for the screen unlocking or the power on/off is in accordance with the preset track, the response module notifies the software to perform the UI response to perform the screen unlocking, and triggers the high power for the power on/off operation. The terminal is turned on or off at a low or low level. The response module does not perform screen unlocking or powering on and off when the processing module determines that the touch track for screen unlocking or powering on and off does not conform to the preset track.
