Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of computer technology, specifically to power-on methods, apparatus, and electronic devices. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of IoT technology, users have increasingly higher requirements for electronic devices, including requirements for device boot time. Due to the use of the Android operating system for startup, there is an unlocking process in the system, and file encryption is provided before unlocking to prevent data theft after the electronic device is lost. The file system is encrypted before the terminal is unlocked, and the real desktop will not appear before unlocking. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This disclosure is provided to briefly introduce the concepts, which will be described in detail in the subsequent Detailed Description section. This disclosure is not intended to identify key or essential features of the claimed technical solution, nor is it intended to limit the scope of the claimed technical solution.

[0004] In a first aspect, embodiments of this disclosure provide a boot method applied to an electronic device with an Android operating system installed, comprising: unlocking the user space in response to detecting that the system preparation of the activity management service is complete; determining whether the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state in response to detecting that the user space is unlocked; stopping the playback of the boot animation if the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state; and sending a boot broadcast in response to detecting that the boot animation has finished playing.

[0005] Secondly, embodiments of this disclosure provide a boot device, disposed in an electronic device with an Android operating system installed, comprising: an unlocking unit, configured to unlock the user space in response to detecting that the system preparation of the activity management service is complete; a determining unit, configured to determine whether the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state in response to detecting that the user space is unlocked; a control unit, configured to stop playing the boot animation if the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state; and a first sending unit, configured to send a boot broadcast in response to detecting that the boot animation has finished playing.

[0006] Thirdly, embodiments of this disclosure provide an electronic device, including: one or more processors; and a storage device for storing one or more programs, wherein when the one or more programs are executed by the one or more processors, the one or more processors implement the power-on method as described in the first aspect.

[0007] Fourthly, embodiments of this disclosure provide a computer-readable medium having a computer program stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of the power-on method as described in the first aspect.

[0008] The boot method, apparatus, and electronic device provided in this disclosure unlock the user space in response to the detection that the system preparation of the Activity Management Service (AMS) is complete. Then, in response to the detection that the user space unlocking is complete, it determines whether the desktop launcher thread is idle. If the desktop launcher thread is idle, the boot animation playback stops. Finally, in response to the detection that the boot animation playback is complete, a boot broadcast is sent. This method unlocks the user space when the AMS system preparation is complete. Compared to the native unlocking and decryption process of the Android operating system, which unlocks the user space after booting, this embodiment advances the timing of the boot broadcast, shortening the boot time of electronic devices running the Android operating system.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1 The diagram illustrates a flow 100 of an embodiment of a power-on method according to the present disclosure. This power-on method is typically used in electronic devices running the Android operating system and includes the following steps:

[0023] Step 101: In response to the detection that the system preparation for the activity management service is complete, the user space is unlocked.

[0024] In this embodiment, the execution entity of the boot method can detect whether the system of the ActivityManager Service (AMS) is ready, that is, the execution entity can detect whether the SystemReady() method of AMS has been called. AMS is the most core service in the Android operating system, mainly responsible for the startup, switching, scheduling of the four major components in the system, as well as the management and scheduling of application processes.

[0025] If the system preparation of AMS is detected as complete, i.e., the SystemReady() method of AMS is called, the aforementioned execution entity can unlock the user space. The process of unlocking the user space can be achieved by navigating to the UserController class (a helper class of AMS). This unlocking process may include calling the following methods: `sendBootComleted`, `finishUserBoot`, `maybeUnlockUser`, `unlockUserCleared`, `finishUserUnlocking`, and `finishUserUnlocked`.

[0026] Step 102: In response to the detection that user space unlocking is complete, determine whether the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state.

[0027] In this embodiment, the aforementioned execution entity can detect whether the user space has been unlocked. Generally speaking, if the call to the "user unlocking completed (finishUserUnlocked)" method is detected, it indicates that the user space has been unlocked.

[0028] If user space unlocking is detected as complete, the aforementioned execution entity can determine whether the launcher thread is in an idle state. The launcher is the desktop launcher in the Android system; the Android system's desktop UI (User Interface) is collectively referred to as the Launcher. The launcher is one of the main program components in the Android system; without the Launcher, the Android desktop cannot be launched.

[0029] If a user powers on the aforementioned electronic device (e.g., presses the power button), the system process will start the critical services and then launch the Launcher. After launching, the Launcher will draw the first frame of the desktop. Once the first frame is complete, the Launcher's main thread will be idle. This main thread will then send an Activity component idle notification to AMS. If an idle notification is received, it can be determined that the desktop launcher thread is idle.

[0030] If it is determined that the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state, the aforementioned execution entity can proceed to step 103.

[0031] Step 103: If the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state, stop playing the boot animation.

[0032] In this embodiment, if it is determined in step 102 that the desktop launcher thread is idle, the aforementioned execution entity can stop playing the boot animation. When the user performs a boot operation on the aforementioned electronic device, the aforementioned execution entity starts playing the boot animation. If it is determined that the desktop launcher thread is idle, while playing the boot animation, it will notify WMS (WindowManagerService, UI Management Service) that the first frame of the desktop has been drawn and request that the boot animation be canceled. That is, it calls the WMS's first frame display enable (enableScreenAfterBoot) method and the first frame display (performEnableScreen) method. Since the first frame of the desktop is an activity, it needs to be managed by AMS. Afterwards, the AMS's boot animation complete (bootAnimationComplete) method can be called to cancel the boot animation. AMS will then stop displaying the boot animation so that the first frame of the Launcher can be displayed on the screen. Afterwards, the boot completion (finishBooting) method can be called to initialize more services.

[0033] WMS is an important system service used for window management. It is started by the system service, automatically restarts when an error occurs, and can only exit when the system is shut down.

[0034] Step 104: In response to the detection that the boot animation has finished playing, a boot broadcast is sent.

[0035] In this embodiment, the aforementioned execution entity can detect whether the boot animation has finished playing. Generally speaking, if the call to the bootAnimationComplete method of AMS is detected, it indicates that the boot animation has finished playing, and a boot broadcast can be sent to inform other processes in the electronic device that the boot process has been completed.

[0036] The method provided in the above embodiments of this disclosure unlocks the user space in response to the detection that the system preparation of the Activity Management Service (AMS) is complete; then, in response to the detection that the user space unlocking is complete, it determines whether the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state; then, if the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state, the boot animation playback is stopped; and in response to the detection that the boot animation playback is complete, a boot broadcast is sent. This method unlocks the user space when the AMS system preparation is complete. Compared to the native unlocking and decryption process of the Android operating system, which unlocks the user space after booting, this embodiment advances the unlocking process of the user space, thereby advancing the time point for sending the boot broadcast and shortening the boot time of electronic devices running the Android operating system.

[0037] Continue to refer to Figure 2 The diagram illustrates a flow 200 of yet another embodiment of the power-on method according to this disclosure. This power-on method is typically used in electronic devices running the Android operating system and includes the following steps:

[0038] Step 201: In response to the detection that the system preparation for the Activity Management Service is complete, the user space is unlocked.

[0039] In this embodiment, step 201 can be performed in a similar manner to step 101, and will not be described again here.

[0040] Step 202: In response to the detection that user space unlocking is complete, determine whether the electronic device is a television.

[0041] In this embodiment, the execution body of the boot method can detect whether the user space has been unlocked. Generally speaking, if the finishUserUnlocked method is called, it means that the user space has been unlocked.

[0042] If user space unlocking is detected as complete, the aforementioned execution entity can determine whether the electronic device is a television. Here, the aforementioned execution entity can obtain the device identifier of the electronic device, and can determine the type of the electronic device through the device identifier.

[0043] If it is determined that the aforementioned electronic device is a television, then the aforementioned executing entity can execute step 203.

[0044] Step 203: If the electronic device is a television, determine whether the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state.

[0045] In this embodiment, if it is determined in step 202 that the electronic device is a television, the execution entity can determine whether the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state. Launcher is the desktop launcher in the Android system; the Android system's desktop UI is collectively referred to as Launcher. Launcher is one of the main program components in the Android system; without Launcher, the Android desktop cannot be launched.

[0046] If a user powers on the aforementioned electronic device, the system process will start the critical services and then launch the Launcher. After launching, the Launcher will draw the first frame of the desktop. Once the first frame is complete, the Launcher's main thread will be idle. This main thread will then send an Activity component idle notification to AMS. If an idle notification is received, it can be determined that the desktop launcher thread is idle.

[0047] If it is determined that the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state, the above-mentioned execution entity can execute step 204.

[0048] Step 204: If the desktop launcher thread is idle, stop playing the boot animation.

[0049] In this embodiment, step 204 can be performed in a similar manner to step 103, and will not be described again here.

[0050] Step 205: In response to the detection that the boot animation has finished playing, a boot broadcast is sent.

[0051] In this embodiment, step 205 can be performed in a similar manner to step 104, and will not be described again here.

[0052] Step 206: If the electronic device is not a television, send a power-on broadcast.

[0053] In this embodiment, if it is determined in step 202 that the electronic device is not a television, for example, that the electronic device is a mobile phone, iPad, laptop, etc., then the execution entity can send a power-on broadcast.

[0054] Here, the native unlocking and decryption process of the Android operating system is usually as follows: If the launcher thread is detected to be idle, while playing the boot animation, it notifies WMS that the first frame of the desktop has been drawn and requests that the boot animation be canceled, i.e., calling the WMS's enableScreenAfterBoot and performEnableScreen methods; then, it calls the AMS's bootAnimationComplete method to cancel the boot animation; then, it calls the finishBooting method to initialize more services; then, it jumps to the UserController class to unlock the user space, which may include calling the following methods: sendBootCompleted, finishUserBoot, maybeUnlockUser, unlockUserCleared, finishUserUnlocking, and finishUserUnlocked; finally, it calls the finishUserUnlockedCompleted method to send the boot broadcast.

[0055] from Figure 2 It can be seen from this that, with Figure 1 Compared to the corresponding embodiments, the boot method in this embodiment, in its process 200, involves detecting that the user space unlocking is complete, determining whether the electronic device is a television, and if it is, further determining whether the desktop launcher thread is idle; if it is not a television, then sending a boot broadcast. Thus, the solution described in this embodiment determines whether the electronic device is a television. If it is not a television, it indicates that the electronic device is a mobile phone, iPad, computer, or other electronic device using the Android operating system. Since the native unlocking and decryption process of the Android operating system provides file encryption before unlocking the electronic device to prevent data theft after the loss of the mobile phone, iPad, computer, etc., the mobile phone, iPad, computer, etc., need to use the native unlocking and decryption process of the Android operating system for unlocking and decryption. In the native unlocking and decryption process, a boot broadcast is sent upon detecting that the user space unlocking is complete. This way, when it is determined that the electronic device is not a television, it is processed according to the native unlocking and decryption process of the Android operating system. When it is determined that the electronic device is a television, the user space unlocking process is advanced, thereby advancing the time point for sending the boot broadcast and shortening the boot time of a television with an Android operating system installed.

[0056] Further reference Figure 3The diagram illustrates flow 300 of another embodiment of the power-on method according to this disclosure. This power-on method is typically used in electronic devices running the Android operating system and includes the following steps:

[0057] Step 301: In response to the detection that the system preparation for the activity management service is complete, determine whether the electronic device is a television.

[0058] In this embodiment, the execution entity of the boot method can detect whether the system of the Activity Management Service is ready, that is, the execution entity can detect whether the SystemReady() method of AMS has been called. AMS is the core service of the Android operating system, mainly responsible for the startup, switching, scheduling of the four major components in the system, as well as the management and scheduling of application processes.

[0059] If the system preparation of AMS is detected as complete, i.e., the SystemReady() method of AMS is called, the aforementioned execution entity can determine whether the electronic device is a television. Here, the aforementioned execution entity can obtain the device identifier of the electronic device, and can determine the type of the electronic device through the device identifier.

[0060] If it is determined that the aforementioned electronic device is a television, then the aforementioned executing entity can execute step 302.

[0061] Step 302: If the electronic device is a television, then unlock the user space.

[0062] In this embodiment, if it is determined in step 301 that the electronic device is a television, the execution entity can unlock the user space. This can be achieved by navigating to the UserController class to unlock the user space. This unlocking process may include calling the following methods: `sendBootComleted`, `finishUserBoot`, `maybeUnlockUser`, `unlockUserCleared`, `finishUserUnlocking`, and `finishUserUnlocked`.

[0063] Step 303: In response to detecting that user space unlocking is complete, determine whether the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state.

[0064] Step 304: If the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state, stop playing the boot animation.

[0065] Step 305: In response to the detection that the boot animation has finished playing, a boot broadcast is sent.

[0066] In this embodiment, steps 303-305 can be performed in a similar manner to steps 102-104, and will not be described again here.

[0067] from Figure 3 It can be seen from this that, with Figure 1 Compared to the corresponding embodiments, the boot method in this embodiment, in its process 300, involves determining whether the electronic device is a television if user space unlocking is detected as complete, and then unlocking the user space if the electronic device is a television. Since televisions do not require unlocking or file system encryption, when the electronic device is a television, the user space unlocking process is advanced; that is, the user space is unlocked when the AMS system preparation is complete. Compared to the native unlocking and decryption process of the Android operating system, which unlocks the user space after booting, this advances the time of the boot broadcast, shortening the boot time of televisions running the Android operating system.

[0068] In some alternative implementations, the aforementioned execution entity can unlock the user space in the following way: During the unlocking process, when calling the `unlockUserCleared` method, the execution entity typically decrypts the file storage system. Here, the parameters of the file storage system can be pre-set as target parameters, which indicate that the file storage system is not encrypted. Since televisions do not require encryption of their file storage systems, when the electronic device is a television, leaving the file storage system unencrypted saves time during the unlocking process.

[0069] Further reference Figure 4 As an implementation of the methods shown in the above figures, this application provides an embodiment of a power-on device, which is similar to... Figure 1 Corresponding to the method embodiment shown, the device can be specifically installed in an electronic device running the Android operating system.

[0070] like Figure 4 As shown, the power-on device 400 of this embodiment includes: an unlocking unit 401, a determining unit 402, a control unit 403, and a first sending unit 404. The unlocking unit 401 is used to unlock the user space in response to detecting that the system preparation for the activity management service is complete; the determining unit 402 is used to determine whether the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state in response to detecting that the user space has been unlocked; the control unit 403 is used to stop playing the power-on animation if the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state; and the first sending unit 404 is used to send a power-on broadcast in response to detecting that the power-on animation has finished playing.

[0071] In this embodiment, the specific processing of the unlocking unit 401, determining unit 402, control unit 403, and first sending unit 404 of the power-on device 400 can be referred to Figure 1 The corresponding steps are 101, 102, 103 and 104 in the embodiment.

[0072] In some alternative implementations, the unlocking unit 401 may be further configured to unlock the user space in response to the detection that the system preparation for the activity management service is complete, in the following manner: the unlocking unit 401 may determine whether the electronic device is a television in response to the detection that the system preparation for the activity management service is complete; if the electronic device is a television, then the user space is unlocked.

[0073] In some alternative implementations, the unlocking unit 401 can be further used to unlock the user space in the following way: the unlocking unit 401 can decrypt the file storage system, wherein the parameters of the file storage system are preset as target parameters, and the target parameters indicate that the file storage system has not been encrypted.

[0074] In some alternative implementations, the determining unit 402 may be further configured to determine whether the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state in response to the detection that the user space unlocking is complete: in response to the detection that the user space unlocking is complete, determine whether the electronic device is a television; if the electronic device is a television, determine whether the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state.

[0075] In some alternative implementations, the power-on device 400 may include a second transmitting unit (not shown in the figure). The second transmitting unit may be used to transmit a power-on broadcast if the electronic device is not a television.

[0076] Figure 5 An exemplary system architecture 500 is shown, in which embodiments of the power-on methods disclosed herein can be applied.

[0077] like Figure 5 As shown, system architecture 500 may include terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013, network 502, and server 503. Network 502 is used as a medium to provide communication links between terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013 and server 503. Network 502 may include various connection types, such as wired or wireless communication links or fiber optic cables, etc.

[0078] Users can use terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013 to interact with server 503 via network 502 to send or receive messages, etc. For example, terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013 can obtain services (e.g., TV program information) from server 503. Various communication client applications, such as video applications, game applications, and instant messaging software, can be installed on terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013.

[0079] Terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013 unlock the user space upon detecting that the system preparation for the activity management service is complete. Then, upon detecting that the user space has been unlocked, they determine whether the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state. If the desktop launcher thread is in an idle state, they stop playing the boot animation. Finally, upon detecting that the boot animation has finished playing, they send a boot broadcast.

[0080] Terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013 can be either hardware or software. When terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013 are hardware, they can be various electronic devices with displays and supporting information interaction, including but not limited to televisions, smartphones, tablets, and laptops. When terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013 are software, they can be installed in the aforementioned electronic devices. They can be implemented as multiple software programs or software modules (e.g., multiple software programs or software modules used to provide distributed services) or as a single software program or software module. No specific limitations are imposed here.

[0081] Server 503 can be a server that provides various services. For example, it can be a backend server that provides TV program information to terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013.

[0082] It should be noted that server 503 can be either hardware or software. When server 503 is hardware, it can be implemented as a distributed server cluster consisting of multiple servers, or as a single server. When server 503 is software, it can be implemented as multiple software programs or software modules (e.g., used to provide distributed services), or as a single software program or software module. No specific limitations are made here.

[0083] It should also be noted that the power-on method provided in this embodiment is usually executed by terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013, and the power-on device is usually located in terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013.

[0084] It should also be noted that if the terminal devices 5011, 5012, and 5013 locally store television program information, then the above system architecture 500 may not include the network 502 and the server 503.

[0085] It should be understood that Figure 5 The number of terminal devices, networks, and servers shown is merely illustrative. Depending on implementation needs, any number of terminal devices, networks, and servers can be included.

The RAM 603 also stores various programs and data required for the operation of the electronic device 600. The processing unit 601, ROM 602, and RAM 603 are interconnected via a bus 604. An input / output (I / O) interface 605 is also connected to the bus 604.

[0088] Typically, the following devices can be connected to I / O interface 605: input devices 606 including, for example, touchscreens, touchpads, keyboards, mice, cameras, microphones, accelerometers, gyroscopes, etc.; output devices 607 including, for example, liquid crystal displays (LCDs), speakers, vibrators, etc.; storage devices 608 including, for example, magnetic tapes, hard disks, etc.; and communication devices 609. Communication device 609 allows electronic devices to communicate wirelessly or wiredly with other devices to exchange data.
