[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic technologies, and more particularly, to a display method and an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] Currently, information such as the current communication mode and signal strength can be displayed in the status bar of an electronic device. In some special scenarios, the communication quality of the electronic device will be affected to some extent. For example, when the electronic device is in a weak signal scenario such as an elevator, a basement, or a remote area, or in a network congestion scenario such as a scenic area or a concert, its network access rate or call quality will decrease. Therefore, major manufacturers will provide some communication strategies in order to improve the communication quality of the electronic device in special scenarios. When the electronic device executes a communication strategy, a prompt message may be displayed to give corresponding reminders to the user.

[0003] However, the frequent display of prompt messages on the electronic device will cause some troubles to the user. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a display method and an electronic device. This technical solution can, in some special scenarios, when the electronic device has corresponding service requirements and the communication strategy can improve the communication quality of the electronic device, display corresponding changes in the display interface of the electronic device to remind the user that the communication quality of the electronic device has been improved.

[0005] In a first aspect, a display method is provided. The method is applied to an electronic device and includes: when in a first preset scenario, execute a first communication strategy; when the gain of a target metric under the first communication strategy is greater than a first preset value, display the signal bar icon from a first state to a second state.

[0006] Exemplarily, the first state may be the state originally displayed by the signal bar icon, such as white display, and the signal bar icon in the second state may be displayed in another color, or the background color is displayed in another color; or, the signal bar icon in the second state may add an icon, change an icon, etc.

[0007] Exemplarily, the first preset scenario corresponds to the first communication strategy.

[0008] Based on the embodiments of this application, when the electronic device is in the first preset scenario, it can execute the first communication strategy corresponding to the first preset scenario, and when the gain of the target metric under the first communication strategy is greater than the first preset value, display the signal bar icon from the first state to the second state. This technical solution can display corresponding changes in the display interface of the electronic device when the first communication strategy can improve the communication quality of the electronic device to some extent, to remind the user that the communication quality of the electronic device has been improved and avoid frequent display of prompt messages.

[0009] In one implementation, the method further includes: after a first preset duration, displaying the signal bar icon in the first state from the second state.

[0010] Exemplarily, the first preset duration can be 5s, 10s, etc., and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific value of the first preset duration.

[0011] Based on the embodiments of the present application, after the first preset duration, the electronic device can display the signal bar icon in the original first state from the second state, so that after providing the corresponding reminder function for the user, it can be avoided that the signal bar icon is displayed in another state for a long time, causing interference to the user.

[0012] In one implementation, before executing the first communication policy, the method further includes: determining that it is in a service state, where the service state is a state in which the electronic device has service data transmission.

[0013] It can be understood that the electronic device being in a service state can be understood as the electronic device having a state of performing service data transmission, such as a call state, or being in the process of uplink data transmission, or downlink data transmission, etc.

[0014] In this case, when the electronic device determines that it is in a service state, it means that the user is using the electronic device to perform some service processing. In this case, the first communication policy corresponding to the first preset scenario will be executed in order to improve the communication quality of the electronic device and prompt the user's communication experience.

[0015] In some embodiments, when it is determined that the electronic device is not in a service state, even if the electronic device is in the first preset scenario, there is no need to execute the first communication policy, thereby saving the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0017] It should be understood that the screen-on state can be understood as the display screen of the electronic device being in a lit state. Such as the electronic device displaying a lock screen interface, a desktop, or a display interface of other application programs.

[0018] In the embodiments of the present application, only when it is determined that the electronic device is in a service state and the electronic device is in a screen-on state, will the first communication policy be executed to improve the communication quality of the electronic device, so that the change of the signal bar icon can be displayed only when the user can see the display change.

[0019] In one implementation, before displaying the signal bar icon in the second state from the first state, the method further includes: determining that the number of times the signal bar icon is displayed in the second state from the first state during one continuous screen-on process is less than or equal to a second preset value.

[0020] Exemplarily, the second preset value may be 1 time, 2 times, etc., and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific value of the second preset value.

[0021] In the embodiments of the present application, when the electronic device determines that the number of times the signal bar icon is displayed in the second state from the first state during one continuous screen-on process is less than or equal to the second preset value, the change in the display of the signal bar icon will be made, thereby avoiding frequent display of the change in the signal bar during one continuous screen-on process.

[0022] In one implementation, the method further includes: displaying a first notification message for indicating the number of effective times of the first communication policy.

[0023] In some embodiments, the number of effective times may be the number of effective times of the first communication policy within a push period.

[0024] Exemplarily, the push period may be one day, one week, ten days, etc.

[0025] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can also determine the number of effective times of the first communication policy within the push period and display the number of effective times in the notification message, thereby enabling the user to clearly understand the improvement of the communication quality of the electronic device by the communication policy within the push period.

[0026] In one implementation, the displaying of the first notification message includes: displaying the first notification message when the number of effective times is greater than a third preset value.

[0027] Exemplarily, the third preset value may be 3 times, 5 times, etc., and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific value of the third preset value.

[0028] In the embodiments of the present application, the notification message will be displayed only when the number of effective times is greater than a certain threshold, thereby avoiding frequent display of the notification message.

[0029] In one implementation, the first communication policy includes multiple communication policies, and the executing of the first communication policy includes: executing multiple communication policies corresponding to the first preset scenario.

[0030] In the embodiments of the present application, the first communication policy may include multiple communication policies. In a first preset scenario, the electronic device can execute multiple communication policies, thereby being able to improve the communication quality of the electronic device as much as possible and meet the communication needs of the user.

[0031] In some embodiments, the first preset scenario may also correspond to a communication policy.

[0032] In one implementation, the first communication policy includes at least one of the following communication policies: antenna state adjustment; power adjustment; cell reselection and handover; edge-cloud collaboration; pre-caching; or, scheduling optimization.

[0033] In one implementation, the target metrics include at least one of the following: signal strength; signal quality; uplink rate; downlink rate; uplink bit error rate; or, downlink bit error rate.

[0091] The software system of the electronic device 100 can adopt a layered architecture, an event-driven architecture, a microkernel architecture, a microservices architecture, or a cloud architecture. In this embodiment of the application, taking the operating system with a layered architecture as an example, the software structure of the electronic device 100 is exemplarily described.

[0092] Figure 2It is a software structure block diagram of the electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. The layered architecture divides the software into several layers, and each layer has a clear role and division of labor. Communication between layers is through software interfaces. In some embodiments, the operating system is divided into four layers, from top to bottom are the application layer, the application framework layer, the system library, and the kernel layer. The application layer may include a series of application packages.

[0101] The notification manager enables an application to display notification information in the status bar. It can be used to convey messages of the notification type, and can disappear automatically after a short stay without user interaction. For example, the notification manager is used to inform that the download is completed, message reminders, etc. The notification manager can also be a notification that appears in the system top status bar in the form of a chart or a scroll bar text, such as the notification of a background-running application, or a notification that appears on the screen in the form of a dialogue window. For example, it can prompt text information in the status bar, emit a prompt sound, vibrate the electronic device, blink the indicator light, etc.

[0102] The core library consists of two parts: one part is the functional functions that the Java language needs to call, and the other part is the core library.

[0103] The application layer and the application framework layer run in the virtual machine. The virtual machine executes the Java files of the application layer and the application framework layer as binary files. The virtual machine is used to perform functions such as the management of object life cycles, stack management, thread management, security and exception management, and garbage collection.

[0104] The system library can include multiple functional modules. For example: surface manager, media libraries, 3D graphics processing library (such as: OpenGL ES), 2D graphics engine (such as: SGL), etc.

[0107] The 3D graphics processing library is used to implement 3D graphics drawing, image rendering, synthesis, and layer processing, etc.

[0108] The 2D graphics engine is the drawing engine for 2D drawing.

[0109] The kernel layer is the layer between the hardware and the software. The kernel layer at least includes a display driver, a camera driver, an audio driver, and a sensor driver.

[0110] Before introducing the technical solution of this application, the following is a brief introduction to some professional terms that this application may involve

[0111] Communication system: Also known as network system, it refers to the signal transmission standard of an electronic device, such as 3G, 4G, 5G, etc.

[0112] Status bar: A control bar that contains a text output pane or "indicator". The status bar can be located at the top of the display interface of an electronic device. The status information displayed in the status bar includes but is not limited to SIM card signal strength, WI-FI signal strength, Bluetooth connection status, battery level, system notifications, carrier information, alarm clocks, etc.

[0113] Signal bar icon: Such as icons used to indicate SIM card signal strength and WI-FI signal strength.

[0114] Ping-pong effect: In a mobile communication system, if the signal strengths of two base stations change drastically in a certain area, the electronic device will switch back and forth between the two base stations. For example, in the area where the signals of two base stations cross, the ping-pong effect may occur.

[0115] Currently, the status bar of an electronic device can display information such as the current communication mode and signal strength. In some special scenarios, the communication quality of the electronic device will be affected. For example, when the electronic device is in a weak signal scenario such as an elevator, basement, or remote area, or in a network congestion scenario such as a scenic area or a concert, its network access rate or call quality will decrease. Therefore, major manufacturers will provide some communication strategies in order to improve the communication quality of the electronic device in special scenarios. When the electronic device executes a communication strategy, a prompt message may be displayed to remind the user accordingly. However, the frequent display of prompt messages on the electronic device will cause some trouble to the user.

[0116] In view of this, the embodiments of the present application provide a display method and an electronic device. This technical solution can, in some special scenarios, when the electronic device has corresponding service requirements and the communication strategy can improve the communication quality of the electronic device, display corresponding changes in the display interface of the electronic device to remind the user that the communication quality of the electronic device has been improved.

[0117] The technical solution of the present application will be introduced below in combination with several groups of graphical user interfaces (GUI).

[0118] Exemplarily, Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a group of GUI provided by the embodiments of the present application. Among them, from Figure 3 in (a) to (b) shows the process of the electronic device displaying changes in the status bar.

[0119] See Figure 3 in (a). This GUI can be the display interface 210 of the electronic device 200. The display interface 210 can include the status bar of the electronic device 200 and multiple application programs in the electronic device 200.

[0120] The status bar may include the time, battery level, communication mode (such as 5G) and the corresponding signal strength icons 211, wireless network signal strength, etc.

[0121] In some cases, when the electronic device determines that it is in some special scenarios, it can execute the corresponding communication strategy in that scenario, and when it is determined that the communication strategy can improve the communication quality of the electronic device, it can display a GUI as shown in Figure 3 (b) of

[0122] Exemplarily, the above special scenarios may include elevator scenarios, basement scenarios, high-speed rail scenarios, subway scenarios, airport scenarios, network cell congestion scenarios, ping-pong effect scenarios, link anomaly scenarios, etc. And for each scenario, one or more communication strategies can be corresponding. The communication strategy can also be referred to as a communication algorithm. For example, the communication strategy may include, but is not limited to:

[0123] Antenna state adjustment;

[0124] Power adjustment;

[0125] Cell reselection and handover;

[0126] Edge-cloud collaboration;

[0127] Pre-caching; or,

[0128] Scheduling optimization.

[0129] Among them, the antenna state adjustment can be described as: when it is necessary to improve the signal quality and network speed of the downlink reception of the electronic device, the electronic device can switch the working state of the antenna from two antennas to four antennas, and the enhancement of the number of antennas will bring an improvement in the signal reception ability of the electronic device.

[0130] The power adjustment can be described as: when it is necessary to improve the signal quality and network speed of the uplink transmission of the electronic device, the electronic device can actively increase the transmission power of the antenna within its capabilities, and the increase in the transmission power will bring an increase in the transmission signal strength.

[0131] The cell reselection and handover can be described as: when the signal quality or network speed of the cell where the electronic device is located is poor, the electronic device can actively select or trigger the network side to select to make the electronic device camp on or hand over to a cell with better signal quality and network speed.

[0132] The edge-cloud collaboration can be described as: when the signal quality or network speed on the electronic device side is poor, the cloud server can cooperate with the electronic device to improve the network speed. For example, the electronic device uses two SIM cards simultaneously for data services and combines the data, thereby improving the transmission quality or transmission speed of the electronic device. For example, it can correspond to some download scenarios.

[0133] Pre-caching can be described as: when a multimedia service is being carried out or will be carried out on the electronic device side, by pre-caching multimedia resources into the memory of the electronic device, so that when there is no network or the network quality is poor, users can still smoothly view the pre-cached multimedia content, reducing the impact of insufficient network coverage on the services of the electronic device.

[0134] Scheduling optimization can be described as: when the signal quality or network speed on the electronic device side is poor, by increasing the communication resource supply on both the electronic device side and the network side, so as to improve the network speed of the electronic device.

[0135] Exemplarily, for the network cell congestion scenario, the corresponding communication strategy can be cell reselection and handover.

[0136] Among them, the electronic device can determine the corresponding scenario through some parameters or metrics. For example, the electronic device can determine whether it is in the network cell congestion scenario according to the uplink rate, downlink rate, signal strength, signal format, etc.

[0137] For example, when the uplink rate of the electronic device is less than threshold 1 and the downlink rate is less than threshold 2, but the signal strength is high and the signal format is high, the electronic device can determine that it belongs to the network cell congestion scenario.

[0138] For the network cell congestion scenario, the communication strategy adopted by the electronic device is cell reselection and handover, that is, it is necessary to switch the cell where the electronic device camps.

[0139] In some embodiments, the electronic device can determine the target cell to be switched from the historical accessed cells of the electronic device. For example, among the historical accessed cells, if the uplink rate and downlink rate of cell A are the highest, the electronic device can switch its serving cell to cell A; or, among the historical accessed cells, if the signal format of cell B is the highest, the electronic device can switch its serving cell to cell B.

[0140] After switching the serving cell, the electronic device can determine whether the communication quality of the electronic device has been improved according to the gain values of its uplink rate and downlink rate. For example, after switching the serving cell, if the uplink rate and downlink rate of the electronic device have increased by 30% or 15%, it can be determined that this communication strategy has improved the communication quality of the electronic device.

[0141] Exemplarily, for the airport scenario, the corresponding communication strategy can be pre-caching. For example, the electronic device can determine whether the electronic device belongs to the airport scenario according to its location information or the user's itinerary information.

[0142] When the electronic device determines that it is in an airport scenario, the electronic device can execute a pre-cached communication strategy, that is, the electronic device can pre-cache data such as audio and videos watched by the user, so that after the user boards the plane, the electronic device can still be used to continue listening to audio, watching videos, etc. For example, for a video being watched, the electronic device can pre-cache data for a preset duration (such as 1 hour, 30 minutes, etc.).

[0143] Exemplarily, for a high-speed rail scenario, its corresponding communication strategy can also be cell reselection handover.

[0144] In some cases, when the electronic device determines that it is in some special scenarios and determines that the electronic device is in a service state, it can execute the corresponding communication strategy for that scenario, and when the communication strategy can improve the communication quality of the electronic device, it can display the GUI shown in (b) of Figure 3 as follows.

[0145] This service state can also be understood as the electronic device having a service requirement, or the electronic device is performing service data transmission, etc. For example, the types of services can include but are not limited to:

[0146] Streaming types: such as audio, video, etc.;

[0147] Session types: such as voice calls, video calls, text sessions, etc.;

[0148] Interaction types: browsing information, searching, gaming, virtual reality, augmented reality, etc.;

[0149] Transmission types: uploading data, downloading data, etc.; or,

[0150] Services performed through communication connections with other devices, such as vehicle networking services, services for controlling other electronic devices, etc.

[0151] In some cases, when the electronic device determines that it is in some special scenarios and determines that the electronic device is in a service state and a screen-on state, it can execute the corresponding communication strategy for that scenario, and when the communication strategy can improve the communication quality of the electronic device, it can display the GUI shown in (b) of Figure 3 as follows.

[0152] The electronic device being in a screen-on state can be understood as the display screen of the electronic device being in a lit state, such as displaying a lock screen display interface, a desktop, a display interface of other application programs, etc.

[0153] In some cases, when the electronic device determines that it is in some special scenarios and is in the business state and the screen-on state, it can execute the corresponding communication strategy for that scenario; and when it is determined that the communication strategy can improve the communication quality of the electronic device, and when it is determined that the number of changes in the signal bar in the current screen-on state is less than or equal to the preset number, it can display as Figure 3 the GUI shown in (b) of

[0154] It should be understood that the above communication strategy can improve the communication quality of the electronic device can be understood as that the gain value of the communication index of the electronic device under this communication strategy is greater than zero, or greater than the preset value A. Exemplarily, the preset value A can be 30% or 15%, etc.

[0155] Referring to Figure 3 in (b) of

[0156] It can be understood that Figure 3 the display change of the icon 211 in (b) of

[0157] is only illustrative. In some embodiments, the icon 211 can also be in other forms.

[0158] For example, the number of signal bars in the icon 211 can change, such as from three bars to four bars. Or, both the color and the number of signal bars in the icon 211 change. Or, the color of the communication mode identifier in the icon 211 changes, such as the color of 5G changes from white to green or other colors. Or, other icons can be added to the icon 211, such as adding a lightning icon or a 5G+ icon, etc.

[0158] Based on the embodiments of the present application, when the electronic device determines that it is in some special scenarios and affects its communication quality, it can use the corresponding communication strategy to improve the communication quality of the electronic device, and when it is determined that the communication quality of the electronic device is actually improved, it displays the change of the communication icon in the status bar of the display interface of the electronic device, so as to remind the user that the communication quality of the electronic device has been improved, so as to improve the user's perception ability.

[0159] In some embodiments, the electronic device can also count the number of times that the above communication strategy can improve the communication quality when it actually takes effect within a push cycle, and can display a report including the above number in the electronic device in the form of a notification message. The following will be combined with Figure 4 to introduce this technical solution.

[0160] Exemplarily, Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of another group of GUIs provided by the embodiments of the present application.

[0161] It should be understood that Figure 4 reference can be made to the relevant description of (a) in Figure 3 for the sake of brevity, it will not be elaborated here.

[0162] After the notification message is pushed, when the electronic device detects that the user has performed an operation to open the notification center, it can display a GUI as shown in Figure 4 (b) therein.

[0163] For example, the operation of opening the notification center can be an operation in which the user swipes down at the edge of the display interface 210, or the operation of opening the notification center can also be implemented by the user through a voice assistant. For example, for voice input of "open the notification center".

[0164] The electronic device may include a push period. When the push period arrives, the electronic device may push the notification message. For example, the push period may be one week, and the electronic device may push the notification message on a fixed day of each week (such as Saturday or Sunday). Or, the push period is one day, and the electronic device may push the notification message at a fixed time of each day (such as 8 pm).

[0165] In some embodiments, when the above-mentioned push period arrives, the electronic device may also push the notification message only when the number of times of improving the communication quality when the communication policy actually takes effect is greater than a preset value B. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the electronic device from frequently pushing notification messages to the user and avoid interfering with the user.

[0166] It should be understood that different scenarios may correspond to different communication policies. When the electronic device executes the communication policy, it may improve the communication quality of the electronic device. However, in some cases, when the electronic device executes the communication policy, it may also be unable to improve the communication quality of the electronic device or even reduce the communication quality of the electronic device. In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device counts the number of times of actually improving the communication quality when the communication policy takes effect.

[0167] The embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific value of the preset value B. For example, the preset value B is 5 times or 6 times, etc.

[0168] It should be understood that the setting of the above-mentioned push period and preset value can be set by the user in the settings, or can also be the default effective value of the electronic device, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0169] Referring to Figure 4 (b) therein, the GUI may be the display interface 220 of the notification center of the electronic device 200. The display interface 220 may include a display card 221 of the notification message and a delete function button 222.

[0170] Among them, the display card 221 may include the text content "In the recent X, communication has been quickly restored for you N1 times, and the network speed has been improved N2 times".

[0171] It can be understood that the text content in the display card 221 is only illustrative. In some embodiments, the above text content may further include other content or be replaced by other content, etc.

[0172] It can be understood that the scenarios for quickly restoring communication may be, for example, elevator scenarios, basement scenarios, etc., and the scenarios for improving network speed may be network cell congestion scenarios, ping-pong effect scenarios, etc.

[0173] Based on the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can count the number of times that the communication quality can be improved when the communication strategy actually takes effect within a push cycle, and can display a report including the above number of times in the electronic device in the form of a notification message, so as to show the user the situation of the electronic device using the communication strategy to improve the communication quality within the push cycle.

[0174] The following will be combined with Figure 5 introduce the display method provided by the present application.

[0175] Exemplarily, Figure 5 is a schematic flowchart of a display method provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 5 shown, the method 300 can be applied to an electronic device, and the method 300 may include steps 310 to 340.

[0176] 310. In response to the user's operation, the electronic device turns on the function switch.

[0177] Exemplarily, the setting options of the electronic device may include a function switch for executing the display method, and the user can click the setting function button to make the electronic device turn on the function switch.

[0178] It should be understood that this step 310 is an optional step. In some embodiments, this step 310 may not be executed. For example, the function switch is default to be in the on state in the electronic device.

[0179] 320. When the electronic device is in the first preset scenario, the electronic device executes the first communication strategy.

[0180] Exemplarily, the electronic device can determine that the electronic device is in the first preset scenario through some parameter indicators or the first information.

[0181] The parameter may include signal strength, signal quality, communication mode, uplink rate, downlink rate, uplink bit error rate, downlink bit error rate, signal-to-noise ratio, time delay, etc. The first information may include the location information of the electronic device, travel information, data information of sensors, etc.

[0182] The first preset scenario may be at least one of the special scenarios in the foregoing text.

[0183] In some embodiments, the electronic device may determine that the electronic device is in a network cell congestion scenario based on signal strength, communication mode, uplink rate, and downlink rate.

[0184] In some embodiments, the electronic device may determine that the electronic device is in a high-speed rail scenario based on the location information of the electronic device and the data information of the acceleration sensor.

[0185] In some embodiments, the first preset scenario may correspond to a first communication policy. For example, when the first preset scenario is a network cell congestion scenario, the first communication policy is cell reselection and handover; when the first preset scenario is an airport scenario, the first communication policy is pre-caching; when the first preset scenario is high-speed rail, the first communication policy may be cell reselection and handover; when the first preset scenario is a link anomaly scenario, the first communication policy may be scheduling optimization; when the first preset scenario is a download scenario, the first communication policy may be edge-cloud collaboration.

[0186] Exemplarily, when the electronic device determines that the first preset scenario is a network cell congestion scenario, it may determine that the corresponding first communication policy is cell reselection and handover. Assume that the current serving cell of the electronic device is Cell A. Due to network congestion in Cell A, the current uplink rate and downlink rate of the electronic device will decrease, affecting the normal use of the user. The electronic device may determine the target cell to be switched from the historical visited cells of the electronic device. For example, among the historical visited cells, the uplink rate and downlink rate of Cell B are the highest, then the electronic device may switch its serving cell from Cell A to Cell B; or, among the historical visited cells, the signal mode of Cell C is the highest, then the electronic device may switch its serving cell from Cell A to Cell C.

[0187] In some embodiments, the first preset scenario may also correspond to multiple first communication policies. For example, the first preset scenario may be a high-speed rail scenario. In the high-speed rail scenario, the first communication policy, in addition to including cell reselection and handover, may also include pre-caching, power adjustment, antenna status adjustment, etc., so as to maximize the user's communication experience.

[0188] Exemplarily, when the electronic device determines that the first preset scenario is a high-speed rail scenario, it can determine the corresponding first communication strategy as cell reselection and handover, pre-caching, power adjustment, and antenna status adjustment. Since the electronic device is running at a high speed in the high-speed rail scenario, the electronic device needs to frequently switch its serving cell. The electronic device can switch its serving cell in advance according to the location information of the electronic device to improve the communication quality of the electronic device. The electronic device can also pre-cache some multimedia file data so that it can continue to watch the pre-cached multimedia files when the electronic device enters a tunnel. The electronic device can also increase its transmission power and the number of receiving antennas, thereby improving the communication quality of the electronic device and enhancing the user's communication experience.

[0189] It can be understood that the corresponding relationship between the first preset scenario and the first communication strategy can be stored in the electronic device, or the electronic device can also obtain the corresponding relationship between the first preset scenario and the first communication strategy from the cloud server.

[0190] In some embodiments, when the electronic device is in the first preset scenario and in a service state, the electronic device can execute the first communication strategy.

[0191] This service state can also be understood as the electronic device having a service requirement, or the electronic device is in the process of business data transmission, etc. For the type of service, reference can be made to the relevant descriptions in the foregoing text.

[0192] If the electronic device is in a service state, it can be understood that the user has a need to use the services of the electronic device, such as the user using the electronic device to execute a call service or browse short videos, etc. In this case, the user may hope that the electronic device can obtain good communication quality.

[0193] If the electronic device is not in a service state, it can be understood that the user does not have a need to use the services of the electronic device, and then the technical solution of this application does not need to be continued to avoid increasing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0194] For example, in the elevator scenario, the user always puts the electronic device in the bag and does not use it. In this case, whether to improve the communication quality of the electronic device has no impact on the user. To avoid increasing the power consumption of the electronic device, the corresponding communication strategy can be not executed.

[0195] In some embodiments, if the electronic device is not in a service state, the technical solution of this application can also be executed.

[0196] In some embodiments, when the electronic device is in the first preset scenario, in a service state, and in a screen-on state, the electronic device executes the first communication strategy.

[0197] The electronic device being in the screen-on state can be understood as that the display screen of the electronic device is in the lit state, such as displaying a lock screen display interface, a desktop, a display interface of other application programs, etc.

[0198] 330, when the gain of the target metric under the first communication policy is greater than the preset value, the electronic device changes the signal bar icon from the first state to the second state.

[0199] It should be understood that each first communication policy can have a corresponding target metric, and the target metric can be one metric or multiple metrics. The electronic device can determine the effect of the electronic device executing the first communication policy through the gain of the target metric.

[0200] For example, for the network cell congestion scenario, the corresponding target metric can be the uplink rate and / or the downlink rate. Suppose that when the electronic device does not execute the communication policy of cell reselection and handover, its uplink rate is V1 and its downlink rate is V2; after the electronic device executes the communication policy of cell reselection and handover, its uplink rate is V3 and its downlink rate is V4, where V3 is 30% higher than V1 and V4 is 30% higher than V2, and the preset value is 15%, then the electronic device can determine that the gain of the target metric under the first communication policy is greater than the preset value. In this case, the gain of the first communication policy for the target metric is relatively large, and the improvement of the communication quality of the electronic device is relatively obvious, which can improve the user experience.

[0201] It can be understood that the preset value can be 10%, or 15%, or 30%, etc., and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific value of the preset value.

[0202] The electronic device can display the change of the signal bar icon in the status bar. Exemplarily, referring to Figure 3 (a), (b) in, the first state can be Figure 3 icon 211 in (a) in, and the second state can be Figure 3 icon 211 in (b) in.

[0203] The electronic device can display the change of the signal bar icon in the status bar. Exemplarily, referring to Figure 3 (a), (b) in, the first state can be Figure 3 icon 211 in (a) in, and the second state can be Figure 3 icon 211 in (b) in.

[0204] In some embodiments, the number of signal bars in the signal bar icon can also change, such as from three bars to four bars. Or, both the color and the number of signal bars in the signal bar icon change. Or, the color of the communication mode identifier in the signal bar icon changes, such as the color of 5G changing from white to green or other colors. Or, other icons can be added to the signal bar icon, such as adding a lightning icon or a 5G+ icon, etc.

[0205] In this way, the electronic device can remind the user that the communication quality of the electronic device has been improved in the current scenario by displaying the change of the signal bar icon, so as to enhance the user's perception of the communication status of the electronic device.

[0206] In some embodiments, when the gain of the target metric under the first communication policy is greater than a preset value, and the number of changes of the signal bar icon during a single continuous screen-on process of the electronic device is less than or equal to a preset number, the electronic device changes the signal bar icon from the first state to the second state.

[0207] In this application, a single continuous screen-on process can be understood as the process from the first lighting to the extinguishing of the display screen.

[0208] Exemplarily, the preset number can be 1 or 2, etc., and the specific value of the preset number in the embodiments of this application is not limited. The preset number can be a default value or can also be set by the user in the electronic device.

[0209] If the electronic device determines that the number of changes of the signal bar icon during a single continuous screen-on process is greater than the preset number, even if the first communication policy has a large gain for the target metric, the change of the icon will not be displayed in the signal bar of the electronic device. For a single continuous screen-on process, if the change of the icon is frequently displayed in the signal bar of the electronic device, it may cause discomfort to the user.

[0210] If the electronic device determines that the number of changes of the signal bar icon in the current screen-on state is less than or equal to the preset number, the electronic device can change the signal bar icon from the first state to the second state.

[0211] It can be understood that for each first preset scenario, the electronic device can execute the above steps 320-330 or some of the steps 320-330. In some cases, to enable the user to know the improvement of some communication policies on the communication quality of the electronic device, the electronic device can also push a notification message to the user within a push cycle. Therefore, the method 300 can also include step 340.

[0212] 340. The electronic device displays a notification message, and the notification message is used to indicate the number of times the first communication policy takes effect within the push cycle.

[0213] The push period can be referred to the relevant descriptions in the foregoing text. For example, the push period can be one week, one day, etc.

[0214] In some embodiments, the number of effective executions can be understood as the number of times the electronic device executes the first communication policy within a push period. For example, if the push period is 7 days, and the first communication policies executed by the electronic device include power adjustment, cell reselection and handover, edge-cloud collaboration, and scheduling optimization, then the number of effective executions can be 4 times. Alternatively, the number of effective executions can also include the number of executions of each first communication policy.

[0215] In some embodiments, the number of effective executions can also be understood as the number of times the electronic device executes the first communication policy within a push period, and the gain of the corresponding target metric is greater than a preset value. For example, if the push period is 7 days, and the first communication policies executed by the electronic device include power adjustment, cell reselection and handover, edge-cloud collaboration, and scheduling optimization, and the target metrics corresponding to power adjustment, cell reselection and handover, edge-cloud collaboration, and scheduling optimization are all greater than the preset value, then the number of effective executions can be 4 times. Alternatively, the number of effective executions can also include the number of times the electronic device executes each first communication policy, and the gain of its target metric is greater than the preset value.

[0216] In some embodiments, the number of effective executions can also be understood as the number of times the signal bar icon of the electronic device changes. For example, if the push period is 7 days and the number of times the signal bar icon of the electronic device changes is 6 times, then the number of effective executions can be 6 times.

[0217] The notification message can also be used to indicate the improvement of the communication quality of the electronic device by the first communication policy within the push period. For example, the notification message can be used to indicate how much the latency is reduced for the electronic device within the push period, and how much the uplink rate and downlink rate are increased, etc.

[0218] It should be understood that the specific order of steps 310-340 in the embodiments of the present application is not limited. In some examples, some of the steps 310-340 may not be executed or may be replaced by other steps, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0219] Based on the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can execute the first communication policy corresponding to the first preset scenario when in the first preset scenario, and display the change of the signal bar icon when the gain of the target metric is greater than the preset value. This technical solution can display the change of the signal bar icon in the display interface when the electronic device truly has a service requirement and the communication policy can bring a significant improvement in the communication quality of the electronic device, thereby improving the user's perception ability. In addition, this technical solution can also avoid the electronic device frequently changing the signal bar icon and causing trouble to the user.

[0220] Further, the electronic device can also push notification messages to the user within a push cycle, so that the user can know the improvement of some communication strategies on the communication quality of the electronic device, further enhancing the user experience.

[0221] Figure 6 It is a schematic flowchart of a display method provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 6 shown, the method 400 can be applied to an electronic device, and the method 400 can include steps 410 to 420.

[0222] 410. When the electronic device is in a first preset scenario, the electronic device executes a first communication strategy.

[0223] Exemplarily, the first preset scenario can include at least one of the following scenarios:

[0224] Airport scenario;

[0225] High-speed rail scenario;

[0226] Elevator scenario;

[0227] Network cell congestion scenario;

[0228] Ping-pong effect scenario; or,

[0229] Link anomaly scenario.

[0230] It should be understood that the manner in which the electronic device determines that it is in the first preset scenario can refer to the relevant descriptions in the foregoing. For the sake of brevity, it will not be elaborated here.

[0231] Exemplarily, the first communication strategy can include at least one of the following communication strategies:

[0232] Antenna state adjustment;

[0233] Power adjustment;

[0234] Cell reselection and handover;

[0235] Terminal-cloud collaboration;

[0236] Pre-caching; or,

[0237] Scheduling optimization.

[0238] In the present application, the first preset scenario can correspond to the first communication strategy. In some embodiments, one first preset scenario can correspond to one first communication strategy; or, one first preset scenario can correspond to multiple first communication strategies.

[0239] For example, for the scenario of network cell congestion, the first communication policy may be cell reselection handover; or, for the scenario of network cell congestion, the first communication policy may be cell reselection handover, antenna state adjustment, etc.

[0240] For another example, for the airport scenario, the corresponding first communication policy may be pre-caching.

[0241] 420, when the gain of the target metric under the first communication policy is greater than the first preset value, the electronic device will display the signal bar icon from the first state to the second state.

[0242] The target metric may include at least one of the following: signal strength; signal quality; uplink rate; downlink rate; uplink bit error rate; or, downlink bit error rate.

[0243] For example, for the scenario of network cell congestion, the first communication policy executed by the electronic device is cell reselection handover, that is, it is necessary to switch the cell where the electronic device camps.

[0244] After switching the serving cell, if the gain values of the uplink rate and downlink rate of the electronic device are greater than the first preset value, it can be determined that this communication policy improves the communication quality of the electronic device, and then the electronic device can display the signal bar icon from the first state to the second state.

[0245] Exemplarily, the first preset value may be 15% or 30%, etc., and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific value of the first preset value.

[0246] Exemplarily, the first state may be the state originally displayed by the signal bar icon, such as white display, and the signal bar icon in the second state may be displayed in another color, or the background color is displayed in another color; or, the signal bar icon in the second state may add an icon, change the icon, etc.

[0247] Based on the embodiments of the present application, when the electronic device is in the first preset scenario, it can execute the first communication policy corresponding to the first preset scenario, and when the gain of the target metric under the first communication policy is greater than the first preset value, display the signal bar icon from the first state to the second state. This technical solution can display corresponding changes on the display interface of the electronic device when the first communication policy can improve the communication quality of the electronic device to a certain extent, so as to remind the user that the communication quality of the electronic device has been improved and avoid frequently displaying prompt information.

[0248] In some embodiments, the method 400 may further include:

[0249] After the first preset duration, display the signal bar icon from the second state to the first state.

[0250] Exemplarily, the first preset duration may be 5s, 10s, etc. The embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific value of the first preset duration.

[0251] Based on the embodiments of the present application, after the first preset duration, the electronic device may display the signal bar icon from the second state to the original first state, so that after providing the corresponding reminder function for the user, it is possible to avoid the signal bar icon being displayed in another state for a long time and causing interference to the user.

[0252] In some embodiments, before executing the first communication policy, the method 400 may further include:

[0253] Determine that the electronic device is in a service state, where the service state is a state in which the electronic device has service data transmission.

[0254] It can be understood that the electronic device being in a service state can be understood as the electronic device having a state of performing service data transmission, such as a call state, or being in the process of uplink data transmission, or downlink data transmission, etc.

[0255] In this case, when the electronic device determines that it is in a service state, it means that the user is using the electronic device to perform some service processing. In this case, the first communication policy corresponding to the first preset scenario is executed in order to improve the communication quality of the electronic device and prompt the user's communication experience.

[0256] In some embodiments, when it is determined that the electronic device is not in a service state, even if the electronic device is in the first preset scenario, it may not be necessary to execute the first communication policy, thereby saving the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0257] In some embodiments, the method 400 may further include:

[0258] Determine that the electronic device is in a screen-on state.

[0259] It should be understood that the screen-on state can be understood as the display screen of the electronic device being in a lit state. Such as the electronic device displaying a lock screen interface, a desktop, or a display interface of other application programs.

[0260] In the embodiments of the present application, only when it is determined that the electronic device is in a service state and the electronic device is in a screen-on state, will the first communication policy be executed to improve the communication quality of the electronic device, so that the change of the signal bar icon will be displayed only when the user can see the display change.

[0261] In some embodiments, before displaying the signal bar icon from the first state to the second state, the method 400 may further include:

[0262] Determine that the number of times the signal bar icon changes from the first state to the second state during a single continuous screen-on process of the electronic device is less than or equal to a second preset value.

[0263] Exemplarily, the second preset value can be 1 time, 2 times, etc., and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific value of the second preset value.

[0264] In the embodiments of the present application, when the electronic device determines that the number of times the signal bar icon changes from the first state to the second state during a single continuous screen-on process is less than or equal to the second preset value, the change in the display of the signal bar icon will be made, thereby avoiding frequent display of the change in the signal bar during a single continuous screen-on process.

[0265] In some embodiments, the method 400 may further include:

[0266] The electronic device displays a first notification message for indicating the number of times the first communication policy takes effect.

[0267] In some embodiments, the number of times of taking effect may be the number of times the first communication policy takes effect within a push period.

[0268] Exemplarily, the push period may be one day, one week, ten days, etc. For the specific push period, reference may be made to the relevant descriptions in the foregoing text.

[0269] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device may also display the number of times the first communication policy takes effect in the notification message, so that the user can clearly know the improvement of the communication quality of the electronic device by the communication policy within the push period.

[0270] In some embodiments, displaying the first notification message includes:

[0271] When the number of times of taking effect is greater than a third preset value, the electronic device displays the first notification message.

[0272] Exemplarily, the third preset value can be 3 times, 5 times, etc., and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific value of the third preset value.

[0273] In the embodiments of the present application, when the number of times of taking effect is greater than a certain threshold, the notification message will be displayed, thereby avoiding frequent display of the notification message.

[0274] In some embodiments, the first communication policy includes multiple communication policies, and executing the first communication policy includes:

[0275] The electronic device executes multiple communication policies corresponding to a first preset scenario.

[0276] For example, when the first preset scenario is a network cell congestion scenario, the first communication policy may be cell reselection and handover, antenna status adjustment, etc.

[0277] In the embodiments of the present application, the first communication policy may also include multiple communication policies. In a first preset scenario, the electronic device may execute multiple communication policies, so as to improve the communication quality of the electronic device as much as possible and meet the communication needs of users.

[0278] In some embodiments, the first preset scenario may also correspond to a communication policy.
