detailed description

The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

The method for unlocking a button based on a mobile phone in the embodiment of the present invention aims to improve the existing manner of unlocking the mobile phone by using a button, and the user can directly enter the corresponding function after unlocking, thereby improving the speed of use of the mobile phone.

In order to achieve the above object, the method for unlocking a button based on a mobile phone of the present invention achieves a direct jump to a designated function after unlocking the mobile phone by setting a certain combination of keys.

1 is a flowchart of a preferred method for unlocking a button of a mobile phone according to the present invention. The method for unlocking a button based on a mobile phone according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

Step S110: Receive an operation instruction of the user, to preset at least one combination button for unlocking the mobile phone and starting a shortcut function; wherein each combination button corresponds to opening a shortcut function.

In this embodiment, the combination button uses a combination of two buttons, and the combination button preferably includes a first button and a second button, and the first button and the second button are different buttons. For example, in the specific implementation, the following settings can be made:

The combination button of shortcut function 1 (such as SMS function) is K11, K12;

The combination function of shortcut function 2 (such as telephone function) is K21, K22;

The combination keys of shortcut function 3 are K31, K32; and so on.

Step S120, when it is necessary to unlock, detecting whether there is a button press operation, and when yes, determining whether the pressed button is a combination button for starting a shortcut function in a lock screen state;

That is, when unlocking, it is detected and determined whether there is a combination button preset in the above step S110, such as the combination button K11, K12 or the combination button K21, K22, and the like.

Step S130: When it is determined that the pressed button is a combination button that activates the shortcut function in the lock screen state, the control screen is unlocked, and the shortcut function corresponding to the pressed combination button is automatically opened. That is, it is determined whether the user presses the unlock button set in the setting module, and if so, the screen is unlocked and the corresponding function is entered, otherwise the unlocking fails.

When it is determined that the button pressed by the user is the preset combination button, the control screen is unlocked, and the shortcut function corresponding to the pressed combination button is automatically turned on. For example, if it is determined that the user operates the combination button K11, K12, the control screen is unlocked, and the shortcut function corresponding to the combination buttons K11 and K12 is automatically opened as the shortcut function 1 (such as the short message function); Go directly to the quick function 1 (such as SMS function).

In this embodiment, the user can set a corresponding combination button through the setting menu. If the combination button is recognized in the lock screen state, the screen is unlocked and the function set by the user is turned on. When the user completes the setting, the setting information is saved in the memory of the mobile phone such as FLASH or EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory).

In a preferred embodiment, before the step S110, the method further includes:

a. Set the unlocking shortcut function setting item through the mobile phone menu, as shown in FIG. 2a, and provide various shortcut function settings in the unlocking shortcut function setting item, as shown in FIG. 2b.

In a preferred embodiment, the step S110 specifically includes the following steps:

S11. The operation instruction of the receiving user defines a plurality of shortcut functions in advance by using the unlocking shortcut function setting item, and sets a label for each shortcut function; as shown in FIG. 2b, the shortcut function 1 is set to a short message function; Function 2 is set to the phone function; shortcut function 3 to shortcut function 9 can be preset by the user.

S12. Receive an operation instruction of the user to enter the unlock shortcut function setting item menu, and select a shortcut function. S13. Receive an operation instruction of the user to set a first button of one of the combined buttons. S14. Receive an operation instruction of the user, set a second button in the current combination button, and select a shortcut function that needs to be opened corresponding to the current combination button. For example, as shown in FIG. 2c, the user realizes the shortcut function 3 setting by unlocking the shortcut function setting item menu, and sets the first button (first button) of the shortcut function 3 to “#” and the second button (second button) setting. It is "8"; as shown in Figure 2d, and the shortcut function 3 is set to the music function.

After setting, the mobile phone needs to perform the following steps: S15. When the current setting needs to be stored, the key value of the currently set second button is compared with the key value of the selected second shortcut button, and if the same occurs, the prompt is replaced. Set the key value of the second button. If it is not the same, the setting is successful.

That is to say, in the setting menu, a combination button can only be set to open a function, the button can be any button on the mobile phone and the first button and the second button should be different buttons. In FIG. 2a, FIG. 2b, FIG. 2c, and FIG. 2d, the user first enters the unlock shortcut function setting menu as shown in FIG. 2a, and then sets the combination button corresponding to each shortcut function and the application that is entered after unlocking. In this example, the user has set the shortcut function 1 as the short message, and the shortcut function 2 is the telephone. In FIG. 2b, the user is about to set the shortcut function 3. In FIG. 2c, the combination button of the user setting the shortcut function 3 is “#”+” 8", in Figure 2d the user sets the shortcut function 3 to music. With the above settings, the phone is in the lock screen state, first press # and then press 8 to unlock the screen and automatically open the music, as shown in Figure 2e, Figure 2f, Figure 2g. In this embodiment, according to the setting information of the setting module in the user, the corresponding unlocking prompt is displayed as a prompt, as shown in FIG. 2e. Determine whether the user presses the set unlock button. If yes, the screen is unlocked and the corresponding function is entered, otherwise the unlocking fails.

Further, the step S15 further includes: if the selected second button candidate key value of the shortcut function is used up, prompting to replace the setting of the key value of the first button, the candidate key value is all on the mobile phone keyboard The key value of the button. For example, the combination buttons K11 and K12 and the combination buttons K11 and K13~ combination buttons K11 and K19 can be set. That is, when the different shortcut function combination button has the first button K11 and the second button K12-K19. When the second button is used up to K19. Then prompting to replace the key value of setting the first button, the candidate key value is the key value of all the keys on the keyboard of the mobile phone.

In the implementation of the present invention, the method for determining the second button is a mutual judgment principle, and the key value of the currently set second button is compared with the key value of the selected second button of the shortcut function, and if the key value is the same, the setting is 1. If the key value is different, set it to 0, and then compare all the results. If the result is 0, the setting is successful. If the result is 1, the setting is unsuccessful, and the second button needs to be reset.

The method for unlocking a mobile phone based button according to the present invention will be further described below through specific application embodiments.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart of an application example of a method for unlocking a button of a mobile phone according to the present invention. The method in the application embodiment of FIG. 3 mainly includes the following steps:

In step S01, when the unlocking is needed, the user's operation instruction is received, and the mobile phone screen is triggered to trigger the unlocking process.

Step S02, displaying an unlocking prompt, as shown in FIG. 2f.

Step S03: The system detects whether there is a button operation, if yes, the process proceeds to step S04, otherwise the process continues with the step S03.

Step S04, when it is detected that there is a button operation, it is determined whether the first button of the button operation is a preset first button in a combination button that activates a shortcut function in a lock screen state, and if yes, proceeds to step S05. If not, return to step S03; Among them, the shortcut function refers to the function of directly opening after unlocking the screen of the mobile phone in FIG. 2b. In this example, the user first needs to set 9 shortcut functions in the setup menu.

Assume that the combination of the nine shortcut functions is as follows:

Combination function K11, K12 of shortcut function 1;

Combination function K21, K22 of shortcut function 2;

Combination function K31, K32 of shortcut function 3;

Combination function K41, K42 of shortcut function 4;

Combination function K51, K52 of shortcut function 5;

Quick function 6 combination button K61, K62;

Combination function K71, K72 of shortcut function 7;

Combination function K81, K82 of shortcut function 8;

Combination function K91, K92 of shortcut function 9;

The limitation is that Kx1 and Kx2 cannot be the same (ie, the first button and the second button are different buttons), and x is a natural number from 1 to 9.

When Ky1 is used to indicate the first button, Kz2 is used to indicate the second button. Then, the step is to detect the first button Ky1 of the nine shortcut functions set by the user, that is, to detect whether the currently pressed button is the first button of the nine shortcut functions K11, K21, K31, K41, K51, K61 , K71, K81 or K91, if the pressed button is one of Ky1, then proceeds to step S05, otherwise proceeds to step S03, where y is a natural number from 1 to 9. For example, the first button of the shortcut function 3 in FIG. 2c is set to “#”, and the second button is set to “8”, then K31=“#”, K32=“8”.

In step S05, the system starts the timer T, wherein the timeout period of the T can be preset when the mobile phone is shipped from the factory.

Step S06: determining whether the timer expires, if it times out, returning to step S03, otherwise proceeding to step S07.

In step S07, whether a second button operation regarding unlocking is detected within a predetermined time, if yes, the process proceeds to step S08, otherwise, the process returns to step S06.

Step S08: determining whether the button under the second button operated in the second button operation is a preset second button of the combination button that activates the one of the shortcut functions in the lock screen state, and if yes, enters Step S09, if otherwise returns to step S04;

Step S08 is to complete the detection of the second button Kz2 of the nine shortcut functions set by the user, that is, to detect whether the currently pressed button is the second button K12, K22, K32, K42, K52 of the nine shortcut functions. K62, K72, K82 or K92. If the pressed button is one of Kz2, the process proceeds to step S09, otherwise, the process proceeds to step S04.

Step S09: determining whether the detected combination of the first button and the second button meets a combination button that is preset to activate the shortcut function in the lock screen state, and when yes, generates an unlock control signal, and proceeds to step S10; if otherwise, returns to the step S04. That is, it is judged whether the combined keys of Ky1 and Kz2 meet the preset shortcut function, and if yes, the process proceeds to step S10, if otherwise, the steps are entered. S04. The logical judgment completed in this step is to determine whether y and z are equal.

Step S10, when it is determined that the pressed button is a combination button that activates the shortcut function in the lock screen state, the unlock control signal is received; according to the unlock control signal, the unlocking the mobile phone screen is opened and the corresponding shortcut is opened. Features. The shortcut function in this embodiment refers to the function of directly opening after unlocking the mobile phone screen in FIG. 2b.

It should be noted that the nine shortcut functions described herein are only for convenience of description, and the first button and the second button may be all buttons (including numeric keys and symbol keys, etc.) in the mobile phone and the first button The second button and the second button should be different buttons, so the setting of the shortcut function in actual application is not limited to nine types, and may be any number. In practical applications, the combination of activating a shortcut function is not limited to two buttons, and three or more buttons can be set. Therefore, the implementation of multiple combination buttons is also within the scope of the present invention.

In the embodiment, in the processing of the key value data, the two arrays y[] are initialized, and z[] is used for the first button and the second button, respectively. When a key in the first button is pressed, the corresponding y[] is assigned. For example, pressing button K11 y[1]=1, pressing button K12 y[2]=2, pressing button K13 Then y[3]=3 ,...... When a key of the second button is pressed, the corresponding z[] is assigned. For example, pressing the button K21 z[1]=1, pressing the button K22 z[2]=2, pressing the button K23 Then z[3]=3 ,...... Finally, it is judged from 1 to 9 that if the values of y[] and z[] are equal and are not equal to zero, the unlocking button combination of the shortcut function is correctly pressed, and the corresponding shortcut function is turned on.

Referring to FIG. 4, the present invention further provides an application embodiment 2 of a method for unlocking a button of a mobile phone. In this embodiment, steps S08, S09, and S10 in the method of the previous embodiment may be replaced with:

Step S08', determining whether the button pressed in the previous step is the second button Kz2 of one or more shortcut functions corresponding to the first button, and if yes, proceeding to step S09', if otherwise, proceeding to step S04.

In step S09', the system unlocks the screen and opens the corresponding shortcut function.

In this embodiment, the ordinary button mobile phone is described as a specific embodiment, wherein step 04 is a detection of the first button Ky1 of the nine shortcut functions set by the user, that is, detecting whether the currently pressed button is 9 shortcuts. The first button K11, K21, K31, K41, K51, K61, K71, K81 or K91 of the function; after detecting that one of the nine first buttons is pressed, the step S08' is completed The detection of the second button Kz2 of one or more shortcut functions corresponding to one button, if the button pressed is one of the second buttons Kz2 of one or more shortcut functions corresponding to the first button, then proceeds to step S09'.

The idea of the specific embodiment is as follows: firstly, the first pressed button is judged. If the first button of the shortcut function is in the list, the qualified shortcut function is taken out as the second pressed button. Foundation, The second pressed button is compared with the second button of the selected shortcut function to find a consistent function to activate the shortcut function specified by the first button and the second button.
