[0053] In response to the power-on command of the electronic device, available sensor information is acquired to obtain information about the sensors that have been initialized during the current power-on process.

By updating the preset sensor information with the available sensor information, the available sensor information is matched with the preset sensor information in the next power-on process without waiting for the preset time, thereby reducing the power-on time of the electronic device.

Detailed Implementation

[0065] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this disclosure as detailed in the appended claims. It should also be understood that the term “and / or” as used in this disclosure refers to and includes any or all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0066] With the widespread use of electronic devices, they have become indispensable in people's daily lives, often requiring frequent power-on and power-off cycles. During use, some sensors may become damaged, causing initialization failures on subsequent power-ons. Alternatively, after an operating system upgrade, some sensors may be disabled, eliminating the need for initialization on subsequent power-ons. During the power-on process, electronic devices need to compare the sensor information from the current power-on process with that from previous power-ons, waiting a certain amount of time if a mismatch occurs to prevent sensor initialization failure due to time constraints. However, with damaged or disabled sensors, the electronic device requires a waiting period each time it is powered on, potentially leading to delays in powering on.

[0067] In related technologies, a method for powering on an electronic device is provided, comprising: deleting a sensor list in response to a power-on command from the electronic device; scanning each sensor that has been initialized; generating a new sensor list based on the scanned sensors; and powering on the electronic device. This method, by deleting the sensor list and generating a new sensor list, enables the information of sensors initialized in the current power-on process to match with that of previous power-on processes, without waiting for a certain amount of time, thus reducing the time required to power on the electronic device. However, since the deletion and generation of the sensor list not only increases the processor load but also consumes a certain amount of time, the electronic device may still fail to power on in a timely manner.

[0068] To address the aforementioned technical issues, this disclosure provides a method for powering on an electronic device. During the current power-on process, preset sensor information is updated with available sensor information. In the next power-on process, if the initialized sensors have not changed, they are matched with the preset sensor information. Because the initialized sensor information matches the preset sensor information, the electronic device can be powered on without waiting for a preset time, thus reducing the power-on time. Furthermore, since there is no need to delete and generate the sensor list during each power-on process, time is avoided, further improving the overall power-on time of the electronic device.

[0069] This disclosure provides a method for powering on an electronic device, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0070] S100: In response to the power-on command of the electronic device, obtain available sensor information, which includes information about the sensors that have been initialized during the power-on process of the electronic device.

[0071] S200: Update the preset sensor information with available sensor information, and power on the electronic device after a preset time. The preset sensor information includes information of sensors that were initialized during the historical power-on process of the electronic device.

[0072] In this embodiment, in response to the power-on command of the electronic device, available sensor information is acquired to obtain information about the sensors that have been initialized during the current power-on process. Since the number of sensors initialized during the current power-on process may change, the preset sensor information is updated with the available sensor information, and the electronic device is powered on after a preset time. By updating the preset sensor information with the available sensor information, the available sensor information is matched with the preset sensor information during the next power-on process without waiting for the preset time, thereby reducing the power-on time of the electronic device.

[0073] For example, the preset time can range from 5s to 15s. The preset time can be 8s, 10s, 12s, etc.

[0074] In one embodiment, before acquiring available sensor information in step S100, the method for powering on the electronic device further includes:

[0075] Start the sensor service to initialize each sensor on the sensor hub.

[0076] The acquisition of available sensor information in step S100 is determined in the following way:

[0077] Obtain available sensor information from the sensor hub.

[0078] In this embodiment, the sensor hub needs to initialize each sensor and start the sensor service before obtaining available sensor information. After the sensor hub initializes each sensor, it can transmit the information of the initialized sensors and obtain available sensor information from the sensor hub. By obtaining available sensor information from the sensor hub, the information of the sensors that have completed initialization during the current power-on process can be obtained in a timely manner, thereby improving the reliability of the electronic device's power-on.

[0079] For example, after starting the sensor service, the sensor hub initializes each sensor. After initialization, the sensor hub reports the initialized sensors to the hardware abstraction layer to obtain available sensor information. Once the available sensor information is obtained, the sensors in the available sensor information can be used as mandatory sensors. During the sensor information comparison process, the mandatory sensors can be compared with the sensors in the preset sensor information to determine whether the available sensor information matches the preset sensor information.

[0080] In one embodiment, before acquiring available sensor information in step S100, the method for powering on the electronic device further includes:

[0081] Update the preset sensor information with the target sensor information.

[0082] The step S200 of updating the preset sensor information with available sensor information can be determined in the following way:

[0083] If the preset sensor information includes first sensor information other than the available sensor information, then the target sensor information is updated with the available sensor information.

[0084] If the available sensor information includes second sensor information other than the preset sensor information, then the preset sensor information is updated with the available sensor information.

[0085] In this embodiment, if the preset sensor information includes first sensor information other than available sensor information, the number of sensors initialized during the current power-on process will decrease due to sensor damage or operating system upgrades. Since it is difficult to partially delete sensor information from the sensor list during the power-on process of an electronic device, the preset sensor information can be indirectly updated by updating the target sensor information with available sensor information. If the available sensor information includes second sensor information other than the preset sensor information, the number of sensors initialized during the current power-on process will increase due to sensor recovery or operating system upgrades. Since sensor information can be added to the sensor list during the power-on process of an electronic device, the preset sensor information can be updated with available sensor information. By selecting the corresponding sensor information adjustment method based on the difference between the preset sensor information and the available sensor information, the preset sensor information can be effectively adjusted, thereby improving the reliability of the electronic device's power-on.

[0086] It is understandable that if the available sensor information includes second sensor information other than the preset sensor information, the preset sensor information can be updated indirectly by updating the target sensor information with the available sensor information; this is not limited here.

[0087] In one embodiment, preset sensor information is located in a first sensor list, and target sensor information is located in a second sensor list.

[0088] In this embodiment, by storing preset sensor information and target sensor information in two different sensor lists respectively, the omission of sensor information is avoided and the comparison and adjustment of sensor information are facilitated, thereby improving the reliability of the electronic device's power-on.

[0089] For example, the first sensor list can be set in a first text file (sensors_list.txt), and the second sensor list can be set in a second text file (sensors_list_new.txt).

[0090] In one embodiment, the step of updating the preset sensor information with the target sensor information in the above steps can be determined in the following way:

[0091] If a second sensor list exists, update the preset sensor information with the target sensor information.

[0092] In this embodiment, when the second sensor list exists, target sensor information can be provided to update the preset sensor information. By updating the preset sensor information when the second sensor list exists, the inability to provide target sensor information avoids affecting the preset sensor information, thereby improving the reliability of the electronic device's power-on.

[0093] In one embodiment, the method for powering on an electronic device further includes:

[0094] If the second sensor list does not exist, the preset sensor information will not be updated.

[0095] In this embodiment, since the second sensor list may be deleted after updating the preset sensor information with the target sensor information during the electronic device's first power-on, operating system upgrade, or historical power-on process, the target sensor information may not be available. Therefore, if the second sensor list does not exist, the preset sensor information is not updated. By not updating the preset sensor information when the second sensor list does not exist, the frequent updates of the preset sensor information are avoided, thus reducing the power-on time of the electronic device.

[0096] In one embodiment, the step of updating the preset sensor information with the target sensor information in the above steps can also be determined in the following way:

[0097] The target sensor information in the second sensor list is used to overwrite the preset sensor information in the first sensor list.

[0098] In this embodiment, since it is difficult to locally adjust the sensor information in the sensor list during the power-on process of the electronic device, the target sensor information in the second sensor list is used to overwrite the preset sensor information in the first sensor list. By updating the preset sensor information in an overwriting manner, the inability to adjust the preset sensor information in the first sensor list is avoided, thereby improving the reliability of the electronic device's power-on.

[0099] In one embodiment, the step of updating the target sensor information with available sensor information in the above steps can be determined in the following way:

[0100] The target sensor information in the second sensor list is overlaid with the available sensor information.

[0101] In this embodiment, since the number of sensors initialized during this power-on process is reduced, and it is difficult to partially delete sensor information from the sensor list, the target sensor information is updated by overwriting the target sensor information in the second sensor list with available sensor information. By updating the target sensor information in an overwriting manner, the inability to adjust the target sensor information in the second sensor list is avoided, thereby improving the reliability of the electronic device's power-on.

[0102] In one embodiment, after updating the preset sensor information with the target sensor information in the above steps, the method for powering on the electronic device further includes:

[0103] Remove the second sensor from the list.

[0104] The step of updating the target sensor information with available sensor information in the above steps can also be determined in the following way:

[0105] Copy the available sensor information to the newly created second sensor list as the updated target sensor information.

[0106] In this embodiment, since the target sensor information in the second sensor list is no longer needed after updating the preset sensor information with the target sensor information, the second sensor list is deleted to avoid duplicate or erroneous updates to the preset sensor information. If the available sensor information does not match the preset sensor information, since there is no second sensor list, the available sensor information is copied to a newly created second sensor list. By deleting and creating the second sensor list, the time consumed by updating the preset sensor information every time the device is powered on is avoided, thereby reducing the power-on time of the electronic device.

[0107] For example, the second sensor list can also be retained without being deleted. In this case, the preset sensor information is updated with the target sensor information before each execution of step S100 to obtain available sensor information.

[0108] In one embodiment, the step of updating the preset sensor information with available sensor information in the above steps is determined in the following manner:

[0109] Add the information from the second sensor to the list of the first sensors.

[0110] In this embodiment, by adding the second sensor information to the first sensor list, the overall adjustment of the first sensor list is avoided, thereby reducing the complexity of powering on the electronic device.

[0111] In one embodiment, the method for powering on an electronic device further includes:

[0112] Add the information from the first sensor to the list of the third sensor.

[0113] In this embodiment, because the preset sensor information cannot be identified after updates, unusable sensors cannot be identified, making them unusable and difficult to repair. By adding the first sensor information to the third sensor list, which records unusable sensors for repair and to remind users, the reliability of electronic device startup is improved.

[0114] For example, the third sensor list can be set in a third text file (sensors_list_old1.txt).

[0115] In one embodiment, the method for powering on an electronic device further includes:

[0116] Add the information from the second sensor to the list of the fourth sensor.

[0117] In this embodiment, because the preset sensor information cannot be determined after updating, the recovered sensor remains in the third sensor list and is mistakenly considered unusable. By adding the second sensor information to the fourth sensor list, the recovered sensor is recorded in the fourth sensor list to avoid erroneous repairs or false alerts, thereby improving the reliability of the electronic device's power-on.

[0118] For example, the fourth sensor list can be set in a fourth text file (sensors_list_old2.txt).

[0119] For example, the first text file, the second text file, the third text file, and the fourth text file may be stored in a preset directory related to the sensor in the electronic device.

[0120] In one embodiment, the method for powering on an electronic device further includes:

[0121] Based on the sensor information in the third sensor list, a prompt message is issued to indicate which sensors failed to initialize.

[0122] In this embodiment, the third sensor list records historically unavailable sensors, making it easier for users or maintenance personnel to identify unavailable sensors. By issuing prompts based on the sensor information in the third sensor list, users or maintenance personnel can be alerted to historically unavailable sensors for analysis and repair, thereby improving the reliability of electronic equipment maintenance.

[0123] In one embodiment, the method for powering on an electronic device further includes:

[0124] Based on the sensor information from the third and fourth sensor lists, a prompt message is issued to indicate which sensors failed to initialize.

[0125] In this embodiment, the differences in sensor information between the third and fourth sensor lists reflect currently unavailable sensors, making it easier for users or maintenance personnel to identify these unavailable sensors. By issuing prompts based on the sensor information in the third and fourth sensor lists, users or maintenance personnel can be alerted to currently unavailable sensors for analysis and repair, thereby improving the reliability of electronic equipment maintenance.

[0126] In one embodiment, the step S200 of updating the preset sensor information with available sensor information and powering on the electronic device after a preset time can also be determined in the following way:

[0127] If the available sensor information does not match the preset sensor information, the preset sensor information is updated with the available sensor information, and the electronic device is powered on after a preset time.

[0128] In this embodiment, if the available sensor information does not match the preset sensor information, the number of sensors initialized during the current power-on process changes. The preset sensor information is then updated with the available sensor information, and the electronic device is powered on after a preset time. By updating the preset sensor information with the available sensor information when they do not match, the available sensor information is matched with the preset sensor information in the next power-on process without waiting for the preset time, thereby reducing the power-on time of the electronic device.

[0129] In one embodiment, the method for powering on an electronic device further includes:

[0130] The electronic device is powered on when the available sensor information matches the preset sensor information.

[0131] In this embodiment, when the available sensor information matches the preset sensor information, the number of sensors initialized during the current power-on process remains unchanged, and the electronic device is powered on. By directly powering on the electronic device when the available sensor information matches the preset sensor information, power-on delays are avoided, thereby reducing the power-on time of the electronic device.

[0132] For example, a match between available sensor information and preset sensor information means that the sensors in the available sensor information are exactly the same as the sensors in the preset sensor information. A mismatch between available sensor information and preset sensor information means that the sensors in the available sensor information are at least partially different from the sensors in the preset sensor information. For example, an accelerometer sensor may be present in the available sensor information, but not in the preset sensor information.

[0133] In one embodiment, after acquiring available sensor information in step S100, the method for powering on the electronic device further includes:

[0134] If the first sensor list exists, determine whether the available sensor information matches the preset sensor information.

[0135] If the first sensor list does not exist, the available sensor information is copied to the newly created first sensor list as the preset sensor information, and the electronic device is powered on.

[0136] In this embodiment, since the electronic device does not store a first sensor list when it is powered on for the first time, it is necessary to determine whether the first sensor list exists before comparing the available sensor information with the preset sensor information. If the first sensor list exists, and the electronic device is not powered on for the first time, it is determined whether the available sensor information matches the preset sensor information. If the first sensor list does not exist, and the electronic device is powered on for the first time, the available sensor information is copied to a newly created first sensor list as the preset sensor information. By comparing sensor information or creating a new first sensor list based on whether the first sensor list exists, the system avoids waiting for a preset time due to the inability to compare sensor information, thereby reducing the power-on time of the electronic device.

[0137] In one embodiment, the method for powering on an electronic device further includes, in the case that the first sensor list does not exist:

[0138] Copy the available sensor information to the newly created second sensor list as the target sensor information.

[0139] In this embodiment, by copying the available sensor information to a newly created second sensor list as the target sensor information, the electronic device avoids the inability to update the preset sensor information due to the absence of a second sensor list when it is first powered on, thereby improving the reliability of the electronic device's power-on.

[0140] This disclosure provides a method for powering on an electronic device, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0141] S300: In response to the power-on command of the electronic device, initialize the process.

[0142] S310. Load the system configuration file, which can be, for example, init.rc.

[0143] S320, Start basic services.

[0144] S330: If the second sensor list exists, overwrite the preset sensor information in the first sensor list with the target sensor information in the second sensor list, and delete the second sensor list.

[0145] S340, Start sensor service.

[0146] S350: Obtain available sensor information from the sensor hub.

[0147] S360. Determine if the first sensor list exists. If yes, proceed to step S370. If no, proceed to step S420.

[0148] S370. Determine whether the available sensor information matches the preset sensor information in the first sensor list. If yes, proceed to step S440. If no, proceed to step S380.

[0149] S380. Determine whether the number of sensors in the available sensor information is less than the number of sensors in the preset sensor information in the first sensor list. If yes, proceed to step S390. If no, proceed to step S410.

[0150] S390. Copy the available sensor information to the newly created second sensor list.

[0151] S400: Add the information of the first sensor to the list of the third sensor, and after 8 seconds, execute step S440.

[0152] S410. Add the second sensor information to the first sensor list, and after 8 seconds, execute step S440.

[0153] S420. Copy the available sensor information to the newly created first sensor list as the preset sensor information.

[0154] S430. Copy the available sensor information to the newly created second sensor list as the target sensor information, and then proceed to step S440.

[0155] S440: Power on the electronic device.

[0156] In this embodiment, in response to the power-on command of the electronic device, the user needs to turn on the electronic device and initiate the initialization process. The system configuration file is loaded to configure basic services and sensor services. If a second sensor list exists, the target sensor information in the second sensor list overwrites the preset sensor information in the first sensor list, and the second sensor list is deleted. The sensor service is started to initialize each sensor in the sensor hub and obtain available sensor information from the sensor hub. It is determined whether the first sensor list exists to determine if there is preset sensor information for matching. If yes, it is determined whether the available sensor information matches the preset sensor information to determine if the number of sensors initialized during this power-on process has changed. If no, it is determined whether the number of sensors in the available sensor information is less than the number of sensors in the preset sensor information to determine if the number of sensors initialized during this power-on process has decreased or increased. If yes, the number of sensors initialized during this power-on process has decreased. The available sensor information is copied to a newly created second sensor list, the first sensor information is added to a third sensor list, and the electronic device is powered on after 8 seconds. If no, the number of sensors initialized during this power-on process has increased. The second sensor information is added to the first sensor list, and the electronic device is powered on after 8 seconds. If the first sensor list does not exist, the electronic device cannot perform preset sensor information matching upon initial power-on. Available sensor information is copied to a newly created first sensor list as preset sensor information, and available sensor information is copied to a newly created second sensor list as target sensor information, and the electronic device is powered on again. If the available sensor information matches the preset sensor information, the number of sensors initialized during this power-on process remains unchanged, and the electronic device is powered on. By directly or indirectly updating the preset sensor information with available sensor information when they do not match, the available sensor information can match the preset sensor information on the next power-on process without waiting for a preset time, thus reducing the power-on time of the electronic device.

[0157] For example, in the case of Figure 2 During the power-on process of the electronic device as shown in the diagram, the lifecycles of the first, second, and third text files are as shown in Table 1:

[0158] Table 1:

[0159] nth power-on 1 2 …… p p+1 …… q q+1 …… First text file - + + + + + + + + Second text file - + - - + - - - - Third text file - - - - + + + + +

[0160] During the p-th power-on process, the number of available sensors decreases. During the q-th power-on process, the number of available sensors increases. + indicates the file exists, - indicates the file does not exist.

[0161] This disclosure provides a method for powering on an electronic device, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0162] S500 initializes the process in response to the power-on command of the electronic device.

[0163] S510, Load system configuration files.

[0164] S520, Start basic services.
