Embodiment 1

[0031] What this embodiment describes is a mobile phone with physical buttons simulating a touch screen to start an application function. The mobile phone includes a physical button with a customizable function, or a physical button that can modify functions, and its operating platform is an Android system platform. , the Android system generally includes a system layer, an intermediate layer (ie: Framework layer) and an application layer, and the physical key simulation touch screen in this embodiment starts the application function, which is mainly set in the intermediate layer.

[0032] Please refer to figure 1 and figure 2 , the mobile phone in this embodiment includes a physical button definition module 10 , a function logic and data processing module 20 and a data storage module 30 .

[0033] The physical button definition module 10 mainly defines different button events according to the different pressing modes of the physical button by the user. After the definition ...

Embodiment 2

[0049] What this embodiment describes is a method for simulating a touch screen to start an application function with a physical button, please refer to image 3 and Figure 4 , the method includes the following steps:

[0050] SO1 senses the pressing method of the physical button,

[0051] S02 determines the physical button event corresponding to the pressing method,

[0052] SO3 triggers and completes the physical button event,

[0053] SO4 saves the physical button event.

[0054] In step S01, in the pressing mode of the inductive physical button, the pressing mode includes long pressing, short pressing or lifting according to the pressing time. Specifically, if the pressing time is less than 2 seconds, it is defined as a short press, if the pressing time exceeds 3 seconds, it is defined as a long press, and when it is lifted, it is defined as no pressing action within 1 second after the end of the pressing.

[0055] Further, in step S02, determining the physical butto...

Abstract

The present invention provides an electronic device for activating application functions by simulating a touch screen with a physical button, which includes a physical button definition module, a function logic and data processing module, and a data storage module. Initiate, the physical button definition module responds, and at the same time, the function logic and data processing module needs to confirm the customization by the user again long press after completing the matching of the physical button and the specific application function, thereby completing the physical button function customization. Thus, the user can conveniently and quickly match commonly used applications to the physical buttons according to their own needs, so that when the user needs to start the application, he only needs to press the physical button to quickly open the matched application function , to provide users with a better experience.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of electronic technology communication, in particular to a method and a device for simulating a touch screen with a physical key to start an application function. Background technique [0002] At present, various electronic products with touch screens, such as mobile phones, tablet computers, PDA (Personal Digital Assistant, personal digital assistant), etc., have been widely used. In the case of touch screen mobile phones, because the touch screen input is the main human-computer interaction input method, basically all application functions need to be realized through touch screen operations; at the same time, the usual physical buttons of the mobile phone are also preset with a single function before leaving the factory. , and the function definitions of the physical buttons are all adapted at the bottom layer of the mobile phone system before leaving the factory, and the user cannot dynamically modify the physical ...
