Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although the solution of the prior art reduces the power consumption of the smart phone, the effect is not obvious enough
For example, if there is an app running in the background and doing a lot of calculations, it will still consume a lot of power
[0005] It can be seen that the existing technology only solves the power consumption problem of smart phones to a certain extent, and does not solve the problem of usability of smart phones

Embodiment 1

[0044] In this embodiment, it is necessary to pre-install the switching application program in the smart phone; assuming that the smart phone is currently working in the smart terminal mode, the mobile phone interface in the smart terminal mode is as follows: Figure 2a shown; the switching process is as follows Figure 2b Shown:

[0045] Step 1: When the user needs to switch to the functional terminal mode in order to save power, press the power switch, and select the switch mode button after the pop-up menu (such as power off, restart, switch mode) on the smartphone;

[0046] Step 2: The smart phone determines that it is necessary to switch from the smart terminal mode to the functional terminal mode according to the switch mode button being pressed;

[0047] Step 3: Start switching applications on the smart phone, turn off the network connection function of the mobile phone, prohibit running all background service programs on the mobile phone, adjust the screen brightness ...

Embodiment 2

[0052] In this embodiment, two operating systems need to be installed in the smart phone in advance. Operating system A corresponds to the smart terminal mode, and operating system B corresponds to the functional terminal mode. Operating system A runs all the functional programs that the smart phone can provide; Only a small number of functional programs are run under the environment, such as the functional programs that only run communication and text message sending and receiving;

[0053] Assuming that the smartphone is currently working in the smart terminal mode, the switching process is as follows Figure 2d shown;

[0054] Step 11: When the user needs to switch to the functional terminal mode in order to save power, select to switch the operating system through the option in the toolbar.

[0055] Step 21: The smart phone determines that it is necessary to switch from the smart terminal mode to the functional terminal mode according to the user's selection in the toolba...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a method and a device for switching modes on a terminal, and relates to the field of mobile terminals. By the method and the device, the terminal saves power, and usability of the terminal is improved. When the terminal is required to execute mode switching operation, a target mode required to be switched is determined, and switching operation from a current mode to the target mode is executed, so that the terminal works in the target mode, wherein if the current mode is an intelligent terminal mode, the target mode is a functional terminal mode; if the current mode is the functional terminal mode, the target mode is the intelligent terminal mode; and functions supported in the functional terminal mode are fewer than functions supported in the intelligent terminal mode. By adopting the scheme, the terminal can well save power and the usability of the terminal can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of mobile terminals, in particular to a method and device for mode switching on a terminal. Background technique [0002] With the increasing popularity and rich functions of smart phones, it has become the first choice for people to buy mobile phones. However, due to the increase of the functions of the mobile phone, the operation of the mobile phone becomes slightly complicated. For some groups of people, such as the elderly, it is difficult to learn to use these complex functions, and they cannot be used normally. In addition, because the mobile phone supports various complex functions, such as surfing the Internet and running various applications (apps) in the background, etc., it needs to consume a lot of power, which shortens the continuous use time of the mobile phone. [0003] Current smartphones generally have a power-saving mode. In the power-saving mode, the mobile phone will lower the brightness ...
