It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to The invention is defined.

The solution of the embodiment of the present invention is mainly: obtaining an unlock path input by the user on the terminal lock screen interface; when the unlock path input by the user on the terminal lock screen interface is the unlock path of the screen unlocking common contact, according to the set common contact The person display scheme displays the corresponding common contact information on the lock screen interface, and specifically provides two schemes for unlocking and displaying the common contacts: a full-screen HD avatar display of a single common contact and a nine-square format for some or all of the commonly used contacts. The shortcut function avatar display, thereby overcoming the drawbacks that the user needs to operate multiple times to operate the common contacts, so that the user can implement the operation on the common contacts in the lock screen interface, realizing one-button startup and improving user operation efficiency. And provide a cloud synchronization solution, which is convenient for users to set up at one time, run everywhere, and improve the humanization characteristics of the terminal. As shown in FIG. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for unlocking a contact by a screen, including:

Step S101: Acquire an unlock path input by the user on the terminal lock screen interface;

The terminal involved in the method of this embodiment may be a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone or a tablet computer.

In the prior art, the user needs to perform multiple operations to operate the frequently used contacts, which causes the user to operate cumbersomely and is inconvenient to use. In this embodiment, the user can locate the common contacts through the screen unlocking, so that the user is in the lock screen. The interface can implement operations on common contacts and improve user operation efficiency.

Specifically, after the terminal is started, on the terminal lock screen interface, when the user performs the unlocking operation, the unlock path input by the user on the terminal lock screen interface is obtained.

This embodiment is provided with a corresponding unlocking path for different unlocking operation schemes. The unlock operation scheme includes a default screen unlock mode (ie, a traditional screen unlock mode) and a set of common contact display schemes.

The default screen unlock mode (ie, the traditional screen unlock mode) refers to the screen unlocking in a general sense, that is, in a general sense as opposed to enabling the screen to unlock the common contacts. Unlock.

For the set common contact display scheme, the embodiment is mainly exemplified by a preset single common contact person's display plan and a preset partial or all common contact display plan.

For the common contact display schemes with different settings, the corresponding unlock path is set separately.

(Refer to Figure 2a). The user can input the corresponding unlock path on the lock screen interface as needed to activate different common contact unlocking interfaces.

Step S102, when the unlock path input by the user on the terminal lock screen interface is the unlock path of the common contact of the screen unlocking, the corresponding common contact is displayed on the lock screen interface according to the set common contact display scheme. information.

When the unlock path input by the user on the terminal lock screen interface conforms to the preset display scheme of the single common contact, the full-screen HD avatar corresponding to the single common contact is displayed on the lock screen interface; When the unlock path input by the terminal lock screen interface conforms to the preset display scheme of some or all common contacts, the shortcut function avatar of some or all common contacts is displayed on the lock screen interface.

Specifically, as described above, the embodiment can locate a common contact by unlocking the screen, and provide two display schemes for the user to customize.

The first display solution is to display the full-screen high-definition avatar of the common contact after the screen is unlocked, to provide the call on the full-screen avatar (including but not limited to voice calls, video calls, internet calls), and to send information (including but not limited to sending SMS messages). , Sending multimedia information), SNS social related (including but not limited to sending or receiving the latest information of the user) Function, when performing information interaction and SNS social function on the full-screen HD contact avatar, the user can use HD full-screen avatar or custom The pattern acts as a background, synchronizing the stream to the background, and does not require launching other applications. As shown in FIG. 2b, FIG. 2b is a full screen display diagram of a single screen unlocking contact of a screen unlocking common contact. In the full screen display scheme, various communication related operations are provided, including but not limited to voice calls, SMS multimedia messages, and electronic Other communication methods such as mail are convenient for the user to initiate corresponding operations. The second display solution is to display the shortcut function avatar of some or all common contacts on the screen unlock path. The functions of the shortcut function avatar include but are not limited to making a call (can make voice call, video call, internet call), sending Information (including sending SMS, sending multimedia information), SNS social function, the above shortcut avatar mode provides corresponding shortcut function icons, which is convenient for the user to start with one button. As shown in FIG. 2c, FIG. 2c is a display diagram of a nine-square grid of a common contact for screen unlocking. In the Jiugong grid display scheme, communication related operations can be directly initiated on the contact record, including but not limited to voice calls, SMS MMS, and electronic Other communication methods such as mail, according to the default screen size of the screen unlocking, display up to 9 common contact shortcut icons on one screen. When there are more than 9 shortcuts, you can display them by sliding left or right or sliding up and down. Users can adjust the location of frequently used contacts on the nine-grid style interface.

For the first solution described above, the screen unlocking common contact unlock path needs to be the corresponding relationship with the common contact person. However, the system does not limit the upper limit of the number of common contacts for a single screen unlocking, that is, there may be multiple screen unlocking common contact paths corresponding to multiple screen unlocking common contacts.

For the above second scheme, the screen unlocking common contact unlocking path corresponds to the shortcut function avatar of the common contacts of the Jiugong format.

In addition, for the above second scheme, as a display mode, according to the default screen size of the screen unlocking, a screen displays up to 9 common contact shortcut icons, and when more than 9 shortcuts are available, the user can slide left or right or up and down. Slide the way to display.

In this embodiment, the unlocking path input by the user on the terminal lock screen interface is obtained by using the above solution. When the unlock path input by the user on the terminal lock screen interface is the unlock path of the screen unlocking common contacts, the common contact is displayed according to the set. The scheme displays the corresponding common contact information on the lock screen interface, realizes the quick start of the terminal contact, and avoids the cumbersome, wasteful time and waste of the mobile terminal address book such as the existing mobile phone (or tablet device). Experience the flaws of poor performance. As shown in FIG. 3, another embodiment of the present invention provides a method for unlocking a contact by a screen. On the basis of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 above, in step S101: obtaining the unlock path input by the user on the terminal lock screen interface, the method further includes:

Step S103, determining whether the function of enabling the common contact is enabled on the screen unlocking; if yes, proceeding to step S104; otherwise, proceeding to step S105;

Step S104, determining whether the unlock path meets the unlock path of the screen unlock common contact; if yes, proceeding to step S102; otherwise, proceeding to step S105;

Step S105, detecting whether the unlock path input by the user on the terminal lock screen interface conforms to the default screen unlock path; if yes, proceeding to step S106; otherwise, proceeding to step S107;

In step S106, the unlocking operation is performed according to the default screen unlocking mode, and the terminal home screen is displayed. Step S107, the prompt information that the unlocking path is incorrect is output.

The difference between the embodiment and the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is that the embodiment further includes determining whether the function of enabling the common contact of the screen unlocking is enabled, and displaying the corresponding unlocking interface according to the startup situation and the type of the unlocking path. Program.

Specifically, after the terminal obtains the unlock path input by the user on the terminal lock screen interface, first determine whether the function of the screen unlocking enable common contact is enabled (in one case, the traditional screen unlocking and the screen unlocking enable the common contacts) The function is enabled at the same time. Of course, only one of the screen unlocking functions can be activated. If the function of the screen unlocking to enable the common contacts is enabled, it is determined whether the unlocking path conforms to the unlocking path of the screen unlocking common contacts, if the user is at the terminal. The unlocking path input by the lock screen interface is the unlocking path of the common contact of the screen unlocking, and the corresponding common contact information is displayed on the lock screen interface according to the set common contact display scheme. If the unlock path does not match the unlock path of the screen unlocking common contact, it is detected whether the unlock path input by the user on the terminal lock screen interface conforms to the default screen unlock path; if yes, the unlock operation is performed according to the default screen unlock mode, and the display terminal is displayed. Screen; Otherwise, the prompt message indicating that the unlock path is incorrect is output.

If the function of unlocking the enabled contacts on the screen is not enabled, then when the user is in the terminal lock screen When the input unlock path conforms to the default screen unlock path, the default screen unlock mode is used to unlock the operation, and the home screen of the terminal is displayed; otherwise, the prompt information indicating that the unlock path is incorrect is output. In this embodiment, by using the foregoing solution, the function of enabling the common contact to enable the screen unlocking is determined, and the corresponding unlocking interface is displayed according to the startup situation and the type of the unlocking path, thereby improving the flexibility of the unlocking operation of the terminal; When the unlock path input on the terminal lock screen interface is the unlock path of the screen to unlock the common contacts, according to the set common contact display scheme, the corresponding common contact information is displayed on the lock screen interface, and the terminal contact is fast. Startup, avoiding the drawbacks of the mobile terminal address book such as the existing mobile phone (or tablet device) enabling the fast contact process to be cumbersome, time consuming, and poor user experience.

Set the screen to unlock whether the frequently used contact records are displayed in the terminal address book. If the screen is unlocked as a favorite contact record and is set to not be displayed in the address book, the search cannot be searched using the search method in the address book, thereby increasing the confidentiality of the frequently used contact records and the privacy of the user.

In addition, you can also set the screen to unlock frequently used contacts for encryption. If the screen unlock common contact record is set to be encrypted and not displayed in the address book contact list, after the screen unlocks the correct unlock path, the common contact's full-screen HD avatar or the Jiugong format avatar, the common contact The shortcut icon will give a confidential icon.

In addition, if the screen unlock common contact record is set to be encrypted, when it appears in other modules, including but not limited to the call log interface and the information interface, you need to use the corresponding common contact screen unlock path to view.

The data structure of the common contact record of the screen unlocking can be referred to as shown in FIG. 5. Where: recID corresponds to the ID of the record, which is the primary key of the record identification;

hasUnlockGesture, which indicates whether there is a screen unlocking flag. If the value is false, it means a normal record. If the value is true, it means that the record is the record of the screen unlocking contact; unlockGesturePwd, which means that the corresponding screen unlocking path is converted. For the password, as the basis for judging whether the unlock path is correct;

isShowinContacts, which indicates whether the record is encrypted. If the value is true, it means encryption. It is not displayed in the contact list of the address book. When the value is false, it means no encryption. It can be displayed in the contact list of the address book.

Further, the values of unlockGesturePwd and isShowinContacts only make sense when the hasUnlockGesture value is true. In addition, it should be noted that after enabling the screen unlock to enable the common contacts function, the unlocking path of the screen unlocking enabled common contacts is not consistent with the traditional screen unlocking path. of. If the path of the screen unlocking common contacts input by the user is consistent with the traditional screen unlocking path, the system will give a prompt message, and the two are not allowed to be consistent.
