It provides users with wireless broadband Internet access. Figure 1 The WiFi module 102 is shown, but it is understandable that it is not a necessary component of the smart terminal and can be omitted as needed without changing the essence of the invention.

[0060] The audio output unit 103 can convert the audio data received by the RF unit 101 or the WiFi module 102 or stored in the memory 109 into an audio signal and output it as sound when the smart terminal 100 is in a call signal receiving mode, a call mode, a recording mode, a voice recognition mode, a broadcast receiving mode, etc. Moreover, the audio output unit 103 can also provide audio output related to a specific function performed by the smart terminal 100 (for example, a call signal receiving sound, a message receiving sound, etc.). The audio output unit 103 may include a speaker, a buzzer, etc.

[0061] The A / V input unit 104 is used to receive audio or video signals.

The processed image frame can be displayed on the display unit 106. The image frame processed by the graphics processor 1041 can be stored in the memory 109 (or other storage medium) or sent via the radio frequency unit 101 or the WiFi module 102. The microphone 1042 can receive sound (audio data) via the microphone 1042 in a telephone call mode, a recording mode, a voice recognition mode, and other operating modes, and can process such sound into audio data. The processed audio (voice) data can be converted into a format output that can be sent to a mobile communication base station via the radio frequency unit 101 in the case of a telephone call mode. The microphone 1042 can implement various types of noise elimination (or suppression) algorithms to eliminate (or suppress) noise or interference generated in the process of receiving and sending audio signals.

[0062] The smart terminal 100 also includes at least one sensor 105, such as a light sensor, a motion sensor, and other sensors. Optionally, the light sensor includes an ambient light sensor and a proximity sensor. Optionally, the ambient light sensor can adjust the brightness of the display panel 1061 according to the brightness of the ambient light, and the proximity sensor can turn off the display panel 1061 and / or the backlight when the smart terminal 100 is moved to the ear. As a type of motion sensor, the accelerometer sensor can detect the magnitude of acceleration in all directions (generally three axes), and can detect the magnitude and direction of gravity when stationary. It can be used for applications that identify the posture of the mobile phone (such as horizontal and vertical screen switching, related games, magnetometer posture calibration), vibration recognition related functions (such as pedometer, tapping), etc.; as for other sensors that can also be configured on the mobile phone, such as fingerprint sensors, pressure sensors, iris sensors, molecular sensors, gyroscopes, barometers, hygrometers, thermometers, infrared sensors, etc., they will not be repeated here.

[0063] The display unit 106 is used to display information input by the user or information provided to the user. The display unit 106 may include a display panel 1061, which may be configured in the form of a liquid crystal display (LCD), an organic light-emitting diode (OLED), or the like.

[0064] The user input unit 107 can be used to receive input digital or character information, and to generate key signal input related to the user settings and function control of the intelligent terminal. Optionally, the user input unit 107 may include a touch panel 1071 and other input devices 1072. The touch panel 1071, also known as a touch screen, can collect the user's touch operation on or near it (such as the user's operation on the touch panel 1071 or near the touch panel 1071 using any suitable object or accessory such as a finger, stylus, etc.), and drive the corresponding connection device according to a pre-set program. The touch panel 1071 may include two parts: a touch detection device and a touch controller. Optionally, the touch detection device detects the user's touch orientation, detects the signal brought by the touch operation, and transmits the signal to the touch controller; the touch controller receives the touch information from the touch detection device, converts it into the touch point coordinates, and then sends it to the processor 110, and can receive and execute commands sent by the processor 110. In addition, the touch panel 1071 can be implemented in various types such as resistive, capacitive, infrared, and surface acoustic waves. In addition to the touch panel 1071, the user input unit 107 may further include other input devices 1072. Optionally, the other input devices 1072 may include, but are not limited to, one or more of a physical keyboard, a function key (such as a volume control key, a switch key, etc.), a trackball, a mouse, a joystick, etc., which are not specifically limited here.

[0065] Optionally, the touch panel 1071 may cover the display panel 1061. When the touch panel 1071 detects a touch operation on or near it, it transmits the information to the processor 110 to determine the type of touch event. Then, the processor 110 provides corresponding visual output on the display panel 1061 according to the type of touch event. Figure 1 In the figure, the touch panel 1071 and the display panel 1061 are used as two independent components to realize the input and output functions of the smart terminal. However, in some embodiments, the touch panel 1071 and the display panel 1061 can be integrated to realize the input and output functions of the smart terminal, which is not limited here.

[0066] The interface unit 108 is used as an interface through which at least one external device can be connected to the smart terminal 100. For example, the external device may include a wired or wireless headset port, an external power supply (or battery charger) port, a wired or wireless data port, a memory card port, a port for connecting a device with an identification module, an audio input / output (I / O) port, a video I / O port, a headphone port, etc. The interface unit 108 may be used to receive input (e.g., data information, power, etc.) from an external device and transmit the received input to one or more elements within the smart terminal 100 or may be used to transmit data between the smart terminal 100 and an external device.

[0067] The memory 109 can be used to store software programs and various data. The memory 109 can mainly include a program storage area and a data storage area. Optionally, the program storage area can store an operating system, an application required for at least one function (such as a sound playback function, an image playback function, etc.), etc.; the data storage area can store data created according to the use of the mobile phone (such as audio data, a phone book, etc.), etc. In addition, the memory 109 can include a high-speed random access memory, and can also include a non-volatile memory, such as at least one disk storage device, a flash memory device, or other volatile solid-state storage devices.

[0068] The processor 110 is the control center of the smart terminal. It uses various interfaces and lines to connect various parts of the entire smart terminal. It executes various functions of the smart terminal and processes data by running or executing software programs and / or modules stored in the memory 109, and calling data stored in the memory 109, so as to monitor the smart terminal as a whole. The processor 110 may include one or more processing units; preferably, the processor 110 may integrate an application processor and a modem processor. Optionally, the application processor mainly processes the operating system, user interface, and application programs, and the modem processor mainly processes wireless communications. It is understandable that the above-mentioned modem processor may not be integrated into the processor 110.

[0069] The intelligent terminal 100 may also include a power supply 111 (such as a battery) for supplying power to various components. Preferably, the power supply 111 may be logically connected to the processor 110 through a power management system, thereby managing functions such as charging, discharging, and power consumption through the power management system.

[0070] although Figure 1 Not shown, the smart terminal 100 may also include a Bluetooth module, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0071] To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the communication network system on which the smart terminal of the present application is based is described below.

[0072] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 A communication network system architecture diagram is provided for an embodiment of the present application, wherein the communication network system is an LTE system of universal mobile communication technology, and the LTE system includes a user equipment (UE) 201, an evolved UMTS terrestrial radio access network (Evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network, E-UTRAN) 202, an evolved packet core network (Evolved Packet Core, EPC) 203 and an operator's IP service 204 that are connected in communication in sequence.

[0073] Optionally, UE201 may be the above-mentioned smart terminal 100, which will not be described in detail here.

[0074] E-UTRAN 202 includes eNodeB 2021 and other eNodeBs 2022 , etc. Optionally, eNodeB 2021 may be connected to other eNodeBs 2022 via a backhaul (eg, an X2 interface), and eNodeB 2021 is connected to EPC 203 , and eNodeB 2021 may provide UE 201 with access to EPC 203 .

[0075] EPC203 may include Mobility Management Entity (MME) 2031, Home Subscriber Server (HSS) 2032, other MMEs 2033, Serving GateWay (SGW) 2034, Packet Data Network Gateway (PDN Gate Way, PGW) 2035 and Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF) 2036, etc. Optionally, MME2031 is a control node that processes signaling between UE201 and EPC203, and provides bearer and connection management. HSS2032 is used to provide some registers to manage functions such as home location register (not shown in the figure), and save some user-specific information such as service features and data rates. All user data can be sent through SGW2034, PGW2035 can provide IP address allocation and other functions for UE 201, PCRF2036 is the policy and charging control policy decision point for service data flow and IP bearer resources, which selects and provides available policy and charging control decisions for the policy and charging execution function unit (not shown in the figure).

[0076] The IP service 204 may include the Internet, an intranet, an IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) or other IP services.

[0077] Although the above introduction takes the LTE system as an example, those skilled in the art should know that the present application is not only applicable to the LTE system, but also to other wireless communication systems, such as GSM, CDMA2000, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, 5G and future new network systems (such as 6G), etc., without limitation here.

[0078] Based on the above-mentioned smart terminal hardware structure and communication network system, various embodiments of the present application are proposed.

[0079] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present application, the prior art that may be involved in the present application is first illustrated below.

[0080] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 A schematic diagram of an existing application display provided by the present application can be applied to a foldable smart terminal, such as Figure 3 In the left figure shown, when the folding screen of the smart terminal is in a fully unfolded state, the application running in the smart terminal will be displayed on the inner screen 301. Figure 3 As shown in the right figure, when the folding screen of the smart terminal changes from a fully unfolded state to a fully folded state, the application running in the smart terminal will switch to the external screen 302 for display.

[0081] However, in the above method, the smart terminal is only used when the folding screen is in a fully unfolded state or a fully folded state, which has poor flexibility and affects the user experience.

[0082] In order to solve the above problems, this application proposes a display method that can be applied to a foldable smart terminal, see Figure 4 , Figure 4 A flow chart of a display method provided in an embodiment of the present application, the method comprising the steps of:

[0083] S401: In response to detecting that the current display mode of the smart terminal is the tent mode.

[0084] Optionally, in response to the acquired first state switching instruction, it is determined that the current display mode of the smart terminal is the tent mode according to the first state switching instruction.

[0085] Optionally, the smart terminal responds to the acquired first state switching instruction, assuming that the first state switching instruction is "1", and according to the first state switching instruction "1", it can be determined that the current display mode of the smart terminal is the tent mode.

[0086] It can be understood that the specific content corresponding to the first state switching instruction is not limited in the present application, and can also be determined by other content that can characterize that the current display mode of the smart terminal is the tent mode.

[0087] Optionally, the tent mode refers to a state in which the folding screen of the smart terminal is folded and rotated into an inverted "V" shape, similar to a state in which it presents a tent shape.

[0088] Optionally, the first state switching instruction may be obtained by:

[0089] In response to detecting that the first screen folding angle satisfies the screen folding angle interval preset in the tent mode, and the first screen rotation angle satisfies the screen rotation angle interval preset in the tent mode, a first state switching instruction is determined or generated to obtain a first state switching instruction.

[0090] A hinge is usually installed in a smart terminal with a folding function, which can be located at the central axis of the inner screen so that multiple screens can be unfolded or folded. Therefore, the folding angle of the screen can be obtained by detecting the hinge angle.

[0091] A gyroscope is usually installed in a smart terminal with a folding function, which can be located on a main board of the smart terminal and is used to detect the rotation angle of the smart terminal. Therefore, the rotation angle of the screen can be obtained through the gyroscope.

[0092] After detecting the first screen folding angle, it is determined whether the first screen folding angle satisfies the preset screen folding angle interval in the tent mode, and after detecting the first screen rotation angle, it is determined whether the first screen rotation angle satisfies the preset screen rotation angle interval in the tent mode. If both are satisfied, a first state switching instruction is generated and obtained.

[0093] S402: In tent mode, switch the application displayed on the inner screen to the outer screen.

[0094] In this embodiment, if the currently running application is displayed on the inner screen, the application is switched from the inner screen to the outer screen.

[0095] See also Figure 5 , Figure 5 A schematic diagram of application switching provided in an embodiment of the present application, when the application currently running on the smart terminal is a music player software, such as Figure 5 As shown in the left figure, the smart terminal plays music on the inner screen. If it is detected that the smart terminal enters the tent mode, the music being played will be switched to the outer screen. Figure 5 As shown in the picture on the right.

[0096] It is understandable that the specific type of application is not limited in the present application. It can be an application software that is playing audio or video tasks, or an application software that is displaying text / image content, or an application software that is performing timing events, etc.

[0097] When the smart terminal switches an application displayed on the inner screen to the outer screen, the application can be displayed in a variety of ways.

[0098] Optionally, the screen of the application displayed on the inner screen is completely displayed on the outer screen, that is, the screen displayed on the outer screen is exactly the same as that on the inner screen.

[0099] Optionally, the main function screen of the application displayed on the inner screen is displayed on the outer screen, that is, the screen displayed on the outer screen is a part of the screen displayed on the inner screen, but this part belongs to the key function screen.

[0100] Optionally, a pop-up text is generated corresponding to the screen of the application displayed on the inner screen, and the pop-up text is used to ask the user whether to open the full screen of the application displayed on the inner screen. If the user confirms to open it, the full screen of the application is displayed on the external screen.

[0101] Optionally, according to a preset display layout of the application on the external screen, the screen of the application displayed on the internal screen is displayed on the external screen in the preset display layout.

[0102] In the above embodiment of the present application, in response to detecting that the current display mode of the smart terminal is the tent mode, the smart terminal switches the application displayed on the inner screen to the outer screen in the tent mode. The method of this embodiment enables the smart terminal to still display the running application on the outer screen when in the tent mode, thereby improving the flexibility of the use of the smart terminal and enhancing the user experience.

[0103] Optionally, based on the above embodiment, the process of switching an application displayed on the inner screen to be displayed on the outer screen in tent mode is described through the following embodiment.

[0104] See also Figure 6 , Figure 6 A flowchart of a method for switching an application displayed on an inner screen to an outer screen provided in an embodiment of the present application, the method comprising the steps of:

[0105] S601. In tent mode, determine the display permission of the application displayed on the inner screen.

[0106] Optionally, in tent mode, a pre-configured application monitoring list is obtained, wherein the display permission of each application is configured in the application monitoring list, and the display permission of the application displayed on the inner screen can be determined according to the application monitoring list.

[0107] In this embodiment, the display of each application in the tent mode is customized in advance, allowing some applications suitable for display on the external screen to be displayed on the external screen, and allowing some applications not suitable for display on the external screen to be displayed only on the internal screen.

[0108] Optionally, some large-scale games are not suitable for manual quick operation on the external screen because the external screen has a small display area. Therefore, such large-scale game software is not allowed to be displayed on the external screen.

[0109] Optionally, some audio playback software can be displayed on an external screen without affecting the user's enjoyment of music, so such software allows external screen display.

[0110] It is understandable that the above examples are only used for illustration and are not intended to limit the present application, and can be limited according to actual application scenarios.

[0111] Optionally, in this embodiment, a listener is pre-set for the application of the smart terminal through the THUB SDK software development kit, such as Figure 7 As shown, Figure 7 A schematic diagram of an application monitoring provided in an embodiment of the present application, in Figure 7 In the application process, tent mode listener 1 is set for application 1, tent mode listener 2 is set for application 2, and tent mode listener 3 is set for application 3. The above three listeners are managed by the manager in the service process and the manager service center. Optionally, the manager service center will store an application listening list for tent mode, and the display permissions of the monitored applications are set in the application listening list. Therefore, when an application in the smart terminal is running, the smart terminal can obtain the display permission of the application through the application listening list.

[0112] S602: If the display permission of the application displayed on the inner screen allows the external screen to be displayed, the application is switched to the external screen.

[0113] One possible implementation is:

[0114] When the display permissions of the application displayed on the inner screen allow external screen display, it can be reported to the application through the observer mode, triggering the application's form change event and screen switching event. Optionally, the triggered form change event is used to create a layout file suitable for the external screen, and the triggered screen switching event is used to determine that the screen to be displayed is the external screen. After receiving the above two events, the current usage status of the application is recorded and saved.

[0115] Then, according to the above-mentioned form change event and screen switching event, the layout file is loaded to display the application on the external screen, and the previously saved usage state of the application is restored.

[0116] S603: If the display permission of the application displayed on the inner screen does not allow the external screen to display, continue to display the application on the inner screen.

[0117] If the display permissions of the application displayed on the internal screen do not allow external screen display, the external screen cannot display the application.

[0118] In the above embodiment of the present application, the smart terminal determines the display permission of the application displayed on the inner screen in the tent mode. If the display permission of the application displayed on the inner screen allows the external screen to be displayed, the application is switched to the external screen for display. Otherwise, the application continues to be displayed on the inner screen. The method of this embodiment makes the application displayed on the external screen of the smart terminal more in line with the user's usage needs, has higher flexibility, and further improves the user experience.

[0119] See also Figure 8 , Figure 8 A flowchart of another display method provided in an embodiment of the present application, the method comprising the following steps:

[0120] S801: In response to the acquired second state switching instruction, control the display mode of the smart terminal to exit the tent mode according to the second state switching instruction.

[0121] The smart terminal responds to the acquired second state switching instruction, assuming that the second state switching instruction is "0", and controls the smart terminal to exit the tent mode according to the second state switching instruction "0".

[0122] It can be understood that the specific content corresponding to the second state switching instruction is not limited in the present application, and can also be determined by other content that can represent that the smart terminal exits the tent mode.

[0123] Optionally, the second state switching instruction may be obtained by:

[0124] In response to detecting that the second screen folding angle does not satisfy the screen folding angle interval preset for the tent mode, and / or the second screen rotation angle does not satisfy the screen rotation angle interval preset for the tent mode, a second state switching instruction is determined or generated to obtain a second state switching instruction.

[0125] Optionally, the second screen folding angle can be obtained by detecting the hinge angle, and the second screen rotation angle can be obtained by detecting the gyroscope.

[0126] S802: In response to detecting that the second screen folding angle is less than or equal to a lower limit of a screen folding angle range preset for the tent mode, continue to display the application on the external screen.

[0127] Optionally, assuming that the preset screen folding angle range of the tent mode is 30° to 120°, if the second screen folding angle detected is less than or equal to 30°, it means that the smart terminal is close to a fully folded state, and the application continues to be displayed on the external screen.

[0128] See also Fig. 9 , Fig. 9A schematic diagram of a folding screen close to a fully folded state provided in an embodiment of the present application, assuming that the application currently displayed on the external screen is a music player software, if the detected second screen folding angle is 15°, which is less than or equal to the lower limit value of 30° of the screen folding angle range preset in the tent mode, the music player software continues to be displayed on the external screen.

[0129] S803: In response to detecting that the second screen folding angle is greater than or equal to an upper limit of a screen folding angle range preset for the tent mode, switching an application displayed on the outer screen to display on the inner screen.

[0130] Optionally, assuming that the preset screen folding angle range of the tent mode is also 30° to 120°, if the second screen folding angle detected is greater than or equal to 120°, it means that the smart terminal is close to a fully unfolded state, and the application currently displayed on the external screen is switched to the internal screen display.

[0131] One possible implementation is:

[0132] When it is detected that the folding angle of the second screen is greater than or equal to 120°, it can be reported to the application through the observer mode, triggering the application's form change event and screen switching event, where the triggered form change event is used to create a layout file suitable for the inner screen, and the triggered screen switching event is used to determine that the screen to be displayed is the inner screen. After receiving the above two events, the current usage status of the application is recorded and saved.

[0133] Then, according to the above-mentioned form change event and screen switching event, the layout file is loaded to display the application on the inner screen, and the previously saved usage state of the application is restored.

[0134] See also Fig.10 , Fig.10 A schematic diagram of a folding screen close to a fully unfolded state is provided for an embodiment of the present application. Assuming that the application currently displayed on the external screen is a music player software, if the detected second screen folding angle is 150°, which is greater than or equal to the upper limit value of 120° of the screen folding angle range preset in the tent mode, the music player software is displayed on the external screen.

[0135] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present application, the smart terminal responds to the acquired second state switching instruction, and controls the display mode of the smart terminal to exit the tent mode according to the second state switching instruction. In response to detecting that the second screen folding angle is less than or equal to the lower limit of the screen folding angle interval preset in the tent mode, the application continues to be displayed on the external screen, or, in response to detecting that the second screen folding angle is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the screen folding angle interval preset in the tent mode, the application currently displayed on the external screen is switched to the internal screen display. The method of this embodiment enables the smart terminal to display the application on the external screen even if it is not in tent mode, when the folding screen is close to a fully folded state, and to display the application on the internal screen when the folding screen is close to a fully unfolded state, instead of being displayed only in a fully folded state or a fully unfolded state, thereby improving the flexibility and playability of the use of the smart terminal and further improving the user experience.
