Interface display method and related device

[0001] The present application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202311466259.0, filed on November 3, 2023, entitled "Interface Display Method and Related Device", and Chinese Patent Application No. 202311537367.2, filed on November 16, 2023, entitled "Interface Display Method and Related Device", the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present application relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to an interface display method and related device. BACKGROUND

[0003] With the development of terminal technology, the functions of electronic devices are becoming more and more rich, and electronic devices can be configured with functions such as calls and short messages. In some emergency scenarios, users often need to contact the outside world through electronic devices, for example, to inform the other party of their location, so as to get timely help.

[0004] For some people in remote areas (e.g., deserts, forests, etc.), at sea, because these scenarios are far away from the operator base station, the electronic device cannot contact the outside world through the operator mobile communication network, and generally needs to rely on a special satellite phone to contact the outside world.

[0005] Traditional satellite phones are large and not portable, and are expensive. If an electronic device can support satellite communication functions (e.g., satellite calls, satellite short message sending, etc.), users can use the satellite communication functions of the electronic device to contact the outside world in the case of an emergency and no operator mobile communication network.

[0006] Configuring an interface interaction mode corresponding to a satellite communication function in an electronic device so that users can use satellite call and / or satellite short message functions through the electronic device has become a big problem to be solved.

[0007] SUMMARY

[0008] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an interface display method to solve the problem that the existing electronic device does not have an interface interaction mode corresponding to a satellite communication function.

[0009] The first aspect of the embodiment of the present application discloses a method for displaying an interface, comprising: in the case that an electronic device cannot access a mobile communication network, in response to a user's click operation on a first icon in a first page displayed by the electronic device, opening a first window, the first window comprising a first option for connecting to a satellite; in response to the user's click operation on the first option, establishing a communication connection with the satellite, and performing a service corresponding to the first icon.

[0010] With the above technical solution, the service corresponding to the first icon can include a satellite phone service or a satellite short message service, the first icon in the first page can be a dial icon in a dial interface or a send button in a short message sending interface, in the case that the electronic device cannot access the mobile communication network, the electronic device can open the first window for guiding the user to establish a connection between the electronic device and the satellite in response to the user's click operation on the first icon in the first page displayed by the electronic device, and then can perform satellite calling or satellite short message sending based on the satellite communication function after the electronic device successfully establishes the communication connection with the satellite, so as to realize that the electronic device can quickly use the satellite calling and / or satellite short message function in response to the user's operation, reduce the operation complexity of the user for dialing a satellite phone / sending a satellite short message, and improve the user's experience.

[0011] In a possible implementation, the first page is a dial interface, and in response to the user's click operation on the first icon in the first page displayed by the electronic device, opening the first window comprises: in response to the user's click operation on the first icon in the dial interface displayed by the electronic device, displaying a calling interface, and opening the first window, the first window covering part of the content of the calling interface.

[0012] With the above technical solution, in the case that the electronic device cannot access the mobile communication network, after the user clicks the first icon (dial icon) in the dial interface, the electronic device can display the calling interface, and can open the first window for guiding the user to establish a connection between the electronic device and the satellite, the first window covering part of the content of the calling interface, the user can click the first option for connecting to the satellite in the first window, so that the electronic device can attempt to establish a communication connection with the satellite, and after the electronic device successfully establishes the communication connection with the satellite, the electronic device can perform satellite calling with the called party based on the satellite communication function.

[0013] In a possible implementation, the calling interface displays prompt information about a calling time that can be supported by the remaining power of the electronic device.

[0014] By adopting the technical scheme, the user uses the satellite communication function of the electronic device usually in an urgent scene, in which the power of the electronic device is precious. By displaying the prompt information of the call time expected to be supported by the remaining power of the electronic device on the call interface, the user can be reminded to reserve the power and reasonably plan the call time, thereby improving the possibility of successful rescue of the user in the urgent scene.

[0015] In a possible implementation, in a case where the remaining power of the electronic device is greater than the preset power, the prompt information of the call time expected to be supported by the remaining power of the electronic device is displayed on the call interface in a first display mode; in a case where the remaining power of the electronic device is less than or equal to the preset power, the prompt information of the call time expected to be supported by the remaining power of the electronic device is displayed on the call interface in a second display mode different from the first display mode.

[0016] By adopting the technical scheme, the urgency of planning the call time by the user is different for different remaining powers. In the cases of more power and less power, the prompt information of the call time expected to be supported by the remaining power is output in different forms, so that the user can plan the call time by using different planning strategies according to the prompt information in different forms. For example, the preset power is 20% of the power, the first display mode is to display the prompt information of the satellite call time expected to be supported by the current power once after entering the call interface, and the prompt information disappears after being displayed for a preset time length, and the second display mode is to display the prompt information of the satellite call time expected to be supported by the current power in a continuously flashing manner when entering the call interface.

[0017] In a possible implementation, the electronic device is installed with a first SIM card and a second SIM card, the dialing interface includes a first dialing icon corresponding to the first SIM card and a second dialing icon corresponding to the second SIM card, in a case where the electronic device establishes a communication connection with the satellite based on the first SIM card and reenters the dialing interface, the dialing interface displays only the first dialing icon corresponding to the first SIM card; in a case where the electronic device establishes a communication connection with the satellite based on the second SIM card and reenters the dialing interface, the dialing interface displays only the second dialing icon corresponding to the second SIM card.

[0018] According to the technical scheme, when the electronic device is not connected with the satellite and the electronic device is installed with the first SIM card and the second SIM card, the dialing interface can display the first dialing icon corresponding to the first SIM card and the second dialing icon corresponding to the second SIM card, so that the user can dial a phone call by using the first SIM card or the second SIM card. When the electronic device is connected with the satellite and the electronic device is installed with the first SIM card and the second SIM card, the dialing interface can display only the dialing icon corresponding to the SIM card used to establish the satellite communication connection, so that the user can dial a satellite phone. Compared with the scheme in which two dialing icons are still displayed when the electronic device is connected with the satellite, the scheme can avoid the situation that the user cannot initiate a satellite phone by clicking another dialing icon.

[0019] In a possible implementation, the first page is a short message conversation interface, and the first window is opened in response to a click operation of the first icon in the first page displayed by the electronic device, including: the first window is opened in response to a click operation of the first icon in the short message conversation interface displayed by the electronic device, and the first window covers part of the content of the short message conversation interface.

[0020] According to the technical scheme, when the electronic device cannot access the mobile communication network, after the user edits the short message content to be sent and clicks the first icon (a send button) in the short message conversation interface, the electronic device can open the first window for guiding the user to establish a connection between the electronic device and the satellite. The first window covers part of the content of the short message conversation interface. The user can click the first option for connecting the satellite in the first window, so that the electronic device can attempt to establish a communication connection with the satellite. After the electronic device successfully establishes the communication connection with the satellite, the electronic device can send the short message content based on the satellite communication function.

[0021] In a possible implementation, the first window is opened in response to a click operation of the first icon in the first page displayed by the electronic device when the electronic device cannot access the mobile communication network, including: the first window is opened in response to a click operation of the first icon in the first page displayed by the electronic device when the electronic device detects that the electronic device is located outdoors and cannot access the mobile communication network.

[0022] According to the technical scheme, in an indoor environment (for example, a low parking lot, a basement, etc.), there can be a situation that there is no operator mobile communication network. In this situation, because of the shielding of the satellite signal by the building, the electronic device generally cannot establish a connection with the satellite, and this situation generally does not belong to a scene that needs to be rescued. The electronic device can be set to actively guide the user to establish a connection between the electronic device and the satellite during the process of dialing a phone call or sending a short message, and the precondition includes that the electronic device is currently located outdoors, rather than indoors.

[0023] In a possible implementation, after the service corresponding to the first icon is executed, the interface display method further includes: opening a second window, the second window including a second option for opening the power saving mode; in response to a click operation of the user on the second option, opening the power saving mode.

[0024] With the technical solution described above, since the use scenario of the satellite phone or the satellite short message is generally that the user is in an extreme environment and contacts the outside world, the power of the electronic device is precious, in order to improve the possibility of successful rescue of the user, after the electronic device detects that the service corresponding to the first icon is executed based on the satellite communication function (a satellite call is dialed or a satellite short message is sent), for example, after the satellite call is ended or the sending of the satellite short message is completed, the electronic device can automatically open a second window for prompting the user whether to open the power saving mode, and the user can click the second option in the second window to quickly open the power saving mode.

[0025] In a possible implementation, in response to the click operation of the user on the first option, establishing the communication connection with the satellite includes: in response to the click operation of the user on the first option, opening a third window, the third window including an alignment pattern and an alignment area for displaying the alignment pattern; in response to an operation of the user adjusting the posture of the electronic device, moving the alignment pattern so that the alignment pattern is partially displayed in the alignment area or entirely displayed in the alignment area; in a case where the alignment pattern is entirely displayed in the alignment area, establishing the communication connection with the satellite.

[0026] With the technical solution described above, the alignment state of the electronic device and the satellite is displayed in the form of a dynamic effect, so that the user can determine whether the alignment of the electronic device and the satellite is completed according to whether the alignment pattern is entirely displayed in the alignment area in the process of adjusting the posture of the electronic device, so that the user can adjust the posture of the electronic device in a timely manner according to the alignment dynamic effect, and after the alignment with the satellite is completed, the electronic device can attempt to establish the communication connection with the satellite.

[0027] In a possible implementation, in response to the operation of the user adjusting the posture of the electronic device, the alignment pattern is moved so that the alignment pattern is partially displayed in the alignment area or entirely displayed in the alignment area, including: in response to an operation of the user tilting the electronic device upward or downward, controlling the alignment pattern to move upward to be exposed in the alignment area or to move downward to disappear from the alignment area; or in response to an operation of the user tilting the electronic device to the right or to the left, controlling the alignment pattern to move to the right to be exposed in the alignment area or to move to the left to disappear from the alignment area.

[0028] According to the technical scheme, the satellite alignment generally comprises pitch angle alignment and roll angle alignment, and the pitch angle alignment and the roll angle alignment of the electronic device and the satellite are displayed in different dynamic forms, so that the user can determine whether the pitch angle alignment and the roll angle alignment of the electronic device and the satellite are completed in the process of adjusting the posture of the electronic device according to whether the alignment pattern is displayed in the alignment area. The pitch angle alignment can be realized based on the operation of the user tilting the electronic device upward or downward, and the alignment pattern can move upward to be exposed in the alignment area or move downward to disappear from the alignment area with the operation of the user tilting the electronic device upward or downward. When the alignment pattern is displayed in the alignment area, it indicates that the pitch angle alignment with the satellite is completed. The roll angle alignment can be realized based on the operation of the user tilting the electronic device rightward or leftward, and the alignment pattern can move rightward to be exposed in the alignment area or move leftward to disappear from the alignment area with the operation of the user tilting the electronic device rightward or leftward. When the alignment pattern is displayed in the alignment area, it indicates that the roll angle alignment with the satellite is completed.

[0029] In a possible implementation, the interface display method further includes: in response to a sliding operation of the user on the third window, folding the third window into a preset display form, and the preset display form is any one of a banner window, a floating window or a dynamic capsule; or after a preset time length of establishing a communication connection with the satellite, folding the third window into the preset display form.

[0030] According to the technical scheme, the third window can be a satellite connection state interface, and the third window can be folded into any one of a smaller banner window, a floating window or a dynamic capsule, so as to reduce the visual impact or operation impact of the third window on the user.

[0031] In a possible implementation, the third window covers part of the content of the second page, and the interface display method further includes: in response to a click operation of the user on the second page, moving the third window folded into the preset display form from a first position to a second position different from the first position.

[0032] By means of the above technical solutions, in the case that the user operates the lower interface of the third window, the third window in the preset display mode is moved from the first position to the second position different from the first position, so that the third window in the preset display mode can further reduce the visual impact or operation impact on the user caused by blocking the content of the lower interface. For example, the lower interface of the third window is a satellite phone dialing interface, and the default display position of the third window in the preset display mode is the upper area of the satellite phone dialing interface. When the user dials in the keypad dialing area, the third window in the preset display mode can be automatically moved to the area between the keypad dialing area and the number display area, so as to avoid blocking the number display area and improve the dialing experience of the user.

[0033] In a second aspect, the embodiments of the present application provide an interface display method applied to an electronic device, the method comprising: moving a first window from a first position to a second position different from the first position in response to a user's click operation on a first page displayed by the electronic device, the first window being used to display a connection state of the electronic device with a satellite, the first window covering part of the content of the first page, and the first window being displayed in a preset display mode above the first page, the preset display mode being any one of a banner window, a floating window, and a dynamic capsule.

[0034] By means of the above technical solutions, the first window can be a satellite connection state interface. In the case that the electronic device establishes a communication connection with the satellite and the satellite connection state interface is in any one of the preset display modes of the banner window, the floating window, and the dynamic capsule, the active avoidance rule of the first window can be correspondingly configured for the first page displayed below the first window, so as to reduce the visual impact or operation impact caused by the first window displayed above the first page and the user's operation on the first page.

[0035] In a possible implementation, the electronic device is installed with a first SIM card and a second SIM card, the first page is a dialing interface, in the case that the electronic device does not establish a communication connection with the satellite, the dialing interface includes a first dialing icon corresponding to the first SIM card and a second dialing icon corresponding to the second SIM card, in the case that the electronic device establishes a communication connection with the satellite based on the first SIM card, the dialing interface only displays the first dialing icon corresponding to the first SIM card; and in the case that the electronic device establishes a communication connection with the satellite based on the second SIM card, the dialing interface only displays the second dialing icon corresponding to the second SIM card.

[0036] According to the technical solutions, when the electronic device is not connected with the satellite and the electronic device is installed with the first SIM card and the second SIM card, the dialing interface can display the first dialing icon corresponding to the first SIM card and the second dialing icon corresponding to the second SIM card, so that the user can dial a call by using the first SIM card or the second SIM card. When the electronic device is connected with the satellite and the electronic device is installed with the first SIM card and the second SIM card, the dialing interface can display only the dialing icon corresponding to the SIM card used to establish the satellite communication connection, so that the user can dial a satellite call. Compared with the scheme in which two dialing icons are still displayed when the electronic device is connected with the satellite, the scheme can avoid the situation that the user cannot initiate a satellite call by clicking the dialing icon corresponding to the other SIM card.

[0037] In a possible implementation, the first page is a dialing interface, and the first window is moved from the first position to the second position different from the first position in response to the click operation of the user on the first page displayed by the electronic device, including: the first window is moved from the first position to the second position in response to the click operation of the user on the keyboard dialing area in the dialing interface, the first position is a number display area in the dialing interface, and the second position is a region between the number display area and the keyboard dialing area in the dialing interface.

[0038] According to the technical solutions, the first page is a satellite call dialing interface, and the default display position of the first window in the preset display mode is generally the upper part of the satellite call dialing interface. When the user dials in the keyboard dialing area, the first window in the preset display mode can be automatically moved to the region between the keyboard dialing area and the number display area, so as to avoid blocking the number display area and improve the dialing experience of the user.

[0039] In a possible implementation, the keyboard dialing area includes a dialing icon, and the interface display method further includes: displaying a call interface in response to the click operation of the user on the dialing icon, and the call interface displays prompt information about a call time expected to be supported by the remaining power of the electronic device.

[0040] According to the technical solutions, the user usually uses the satellite communication function of the electronic device in an urgent scene. In such a scene, the power of the electronic device is precious. By displaying the prompt information about the call time expected to be supported by the remaining power of the electronic device in the call interface, the user can be reminded to reserve the power and reasonably plan the call time, and the possibility of successful rescue of the user in the urgent scene is improved.

[0041] In a possible implementation, the interface display method further includes: in the case of ending the call, starting a second window, the second window including an option for starting a power saving mode; and starting the power saving mode in response to the click operation of the user on the option.

[0042] According to the technical solution, since the use scene of the satellite phone or the satellite short message is generally that the user is in an extreme environment and contacts the outside world, the power of the electronic device is precious, in order to improve the possibility of successful rescue of the user, after detecting that the satellite call is ended, the electronic device can automatically open the second window for prompting whether to open the power saving mode, and the user can click the second option in the second window to quickly open the power saving mode.

[0043] In a possible implementation, before the first window is moved from the first position to the second position different from the first position in response to the click operation of the user on the first page displayed by the electronic device, the interface display method further includes: in a case where the first window displays the alignment pattern and the alignment area for displaying the alignment pattern, in response to the operation of the user adjusting the posture of the electronic device, moving the alignment pattern so that the alignment pattern is partially displayed in the alignment area or entirely displayed in the alignment area; and in a case where the alignment pattern is entirely displayed in the alignment area, performing the communication connection with the satellite.

[0044] According to the technical solution, the alignment state of the electronic device and the satellite is displayed in the form of the dynamic effect, so that the user can determine whether the alignment of the electronic device and the satellite is completed according to whether the alignment pattern is entirely displayed in the alignment area in the process of adjusting the posture of the electronic device, so that the user can adjust the posture of the electronic device in time according to the alignment dynamic effect, and after the alignment with the satellite is completed, the electronic device can attempt to perform the communication connection with the satellite.

[0073] With the development of terminal technology, satellite communication function can be integrated on electronic devices, so that the electronic devices can make satellite calls or send satellite messages based on the satellite communication function with other electronic devices in the case of no operator mobile communication network, which is convenient for users to contact the outside world in extreme environments (for example, in deserts, forests, seas, etc. far away from human settlements).

[0074] After the electronic device integrates the satellite communication function, a corresponding human-computer interaction interface (also referred to as a user interface) is also needed to facilitate the user to make satellite calls and / or send satellite short messages on the electronic device.

[0075] To solve the above technical problems, the interface display method provided in the embodiments of the present application can solve the problem that the existing electronic device lacks a user interface corresponding to the satellite communication function.

[0076] The interface display method of the embodiments of the present application can be applied to electronic devices of various types supporting satellite communication function. The electronic device can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer (portable android device, Pad), a wearable device (such as a smart watch), a vehicle-mounted device, etc. The electronic device may, for example, be a device carrying Windows or other operating systems, and the present application does not limit this. The embodiments of the present application take a mobile phone as an example for description.

[0077] The user interface (UI) in the embodiments of the present application is a medium interface for interaction and information exchange between an application program or an operating system and a user, and can realize conversion between an internal form of information and a form (e.g., a visual operation environment) acceptable to the user. The user interface language can refer to text contained in the user interface, and the text language can be Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, French, Russian, German, Portuguese, etc. The user interface of an application program can be written by source code in a specific computer language such as JAVA or extensible markup language (XML), and the interface source code is parsed and rendered on an electronic device to finally present content recognizable by the user, such as pictures, texts, buttons, etc. A control is a basic element of a user interface, and typical controls include buttons, widgets, toolbars, menu bars, text boxes, scroll bars, pictures, and texts.

In some embodiments, the Android system is divided into four layers, from top to bottom, the application layer, the application framework layer, the Android runtime and system library, and the kernel layer.

[0143] The application layer can include a series of application packages.

[0144] As shown in FIG. 2, the application package can include battery management, camera, gallery, calendar, call, map, navigation, music, video, short message, etc.

[0145] The application framework layer provides application programming interfaces (APIs) and programming frameworks for the applications of the application layer. The application framework layer includes some pre-defined functions.

[0146] As shown in FIG. 2, the application framework layer can include window manager, input manager InputManager, sensor manager SensorManager, phone manager, resource manager, notification manager, etc.

[0147] The input manager can be used to listen to the input events of the user, such as the click event, the sliding event, etc. performed by the user's finger on the display screen 193 of the electronic device 100. By listening to the input event, the electronic device 100 can determine whether the electronic device is being used.

[0148] The sensor manager is used to listen to the data returned by each sensor in the electronic device, such as motion sensor data, proximity light sensor data, temperature sensor data, etc. Using the data returned by each sensor, the electronic device can determine whether it has jitter, or whether the display screen 193 is blocked, etc.

[0149] The Android runtime includes a core library and a virtual machine. The Android runtime is responsible for the scheduling and management of the Android system.

[0150] The core library contains two parts: one part is the function function that the java language needs to call, and the other part is the core library of Android.

[0151] 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 into binary files. The virtual machine is used to perform the management of the object life cycle, the management of the stack, the management of the thread, the management of the security and the exception, and the garbage collection, etc.

[0152] The system library can include a plurality of functional modules. For example, a surface manager, media libraries, a three-dimensional graphics processing library (e.g., OpenGL ES), a 2D graphics engine (e.g., SGL), and the like.

[0153] The surface manager is used to manage a display subsystem and provides fusion of 2D and 3D layers for a plurality of applications.

[0154] The media libraries support playback and recording of a plurality of commonly used audio, video formats, and still image files. The media libraries can support a plurality of audio and video encoding formats, such as MPEG4, H.264, MP3, AAC, AMR, JPG, PNG, and the like.

[0155] The three-dimensional graphics processing library is used to implement three-dimensional graphics drawing, image rendering, composition, and layer processing, and the like.

[0156] The 2D graphics engine is a drawing engine for 2D drawing.

[0157] The kernel layer is a layer between hardware (hardware layer) and software. The kernel layer at least includes display drivers, camera drivers, audio drivers, and sensor drivers. The hardware layer can include a display screen, a camera, a sensor, and the like.

[0158] As shown in FIG. 3a, for a SIM card installed in an electronic device, if the operator of the SIM card operates a satellite communication service and the SIM card opens the satellite communication service, the electronic device can normally use the satellite communication function based on the SIM card. Specifically, the flow of the electronic device attempting to use the satellite communication function can include:

[0159] (i) In response to a first operation of a user, the electronic device starts the satellite communication function.

[0160] For example, the setting interface of the electronic device includes a "satellite network" option, and the electronic device can start the satellite communication function in response to a first operation of a user on the "satellite network" option.

[0161] (ii) The electronic device performs satellite searching and satellite pointing.

[0162] After the electronic device starts the satellite communication function, the electronic device can automatically perform satellite searching and satellite pointing (searching for a satellite and pointing to a satellite). The operator of the SIM card deploys a plurality of mobile communication satellites in geosynchronous orbit in order to implement the satellite communication service, and the electronic device requests to establish a communication connection with the mobile communication satellite by searching for a satellite and pointing to a satellite. Taking a Tianxiang satellite as an example, the electronic device performs satellite searching and satellite pointing to request to establish a communication connection with the Tianxiang satellite.

[0163] (iii) The electronic device initiates network registration with the Tiantong satellite.

[0164] After the electronic device searches for and aligns with the Tiantong satellite, the electronic device can initiate network registration with the Tiantong satellite. If the SIM card installed in the electronic device is enabled for satellite communication services, the electronic device can successfully perform network registration on the Tiantong satellite.

[0165] (iv) The electronic device establishes a communication connection with the Tiantong satellite.

[0166] After the electronic device successfully performs network registration on the Tiantong satellite, the electronic device establishes a communication connection with the Tiantong satellite, i.e., the electronic device has successfully connected to the Tiantong satellite.

[0167] (v) In response to a second operation of the user, the electronic device initiates satellite calls and / or sends satellite short messages.

[0168] After the electronic device establishes a communication connection with the Tiantong satellite, the user can make satellite calls with other electronic devices through the satellite communication function of the electronic device, or send satellite messages, to achieve contact with the outside world in the absence of an operator mobile communication network. For example, the electronic device can provide a satellite phone dialing keyboard on the dialing interface, and in response to a second operation of the user on the satellite phone dialing keyboard, initiate satellite calls, or the electronic device can respond to a second operation of the user on the short message interface to send satellite messages.

[0169] As shown in FIG. 3b, if the operator of the SIM card operates satellite communication services, but the SIM installed in the electronic device is not enabled for satellite communication services, the electronic device cannot use the satellite communication function based on the SIM card. Specifically, the flow of the electronic device attempting to use the satellite communication function can include:

[0170] (i) In response to a first operation of the user, the electronic device enables the satellite communication function.

[0171] (ii) The electronic device searches for and aligns with the satellite.

[0172] (iii) The electronic device initiates network registration with the Tiantong satellite.

[0173] (iv) Network registration fails, and the electronic device outputs first prompt information.

[0174] Since the SIM card installed in the electronic device is not enabled for satellite communication services, the electronic device cannot perform network registration on the Tiantong satellite, and the electronic device cannot connect to the Tiantong satellite. The electronic device can output first prompt information in the form of a pop-up box, for example, the first prompt information is "SIM card not enabled for satellite communication services”.

[0175] As shown in FIG. 3c, if the operator of the SIM card does not operate satellite communication services, the electronic device cannot use the satellite communication function based on the SIM card. Specifically, the process in which the electronic device attempts to use the satellite communication function can include:

[0176] (i) In response to a first operation of the user, the electronic device turns on the satellite communication function.

[0177] (ii) The electronic device performs satellite searching and satellite pointing.

[0178] (iii) The satellite searching and satellite pointing fail, and the electronic device outputs second prompt information.

[0179] Since the operator of the SIM card does not operate satellite communication services, the electronic device cannot complete satellite searching and satellite pointing, and the electronic device can output the second prompt information in the form of a pop-up window, for example, the second prompt information is "a SIM card supporting satellite communication services is not inserted" or "a SIM card of XX operator is not inserted."

[0180] Referring to FIG. 4, the operator of the SIM card installed in the electronic device operates satellite communication services, and the satellite corresponding to the satellite communication services is taken as a Tianhong satellite as an example, the process in which the electronic device uses the satellite communication function is introduced in detail.

[0181] (1) Turn on the satellite communication switch to turn on the satellite communication function.

[0182] The setting interface of the electronic device can include a "satellite network" option, and after the user clicks the "satellite network" option, the user can enter the enable interface of the satellite communication function. The enable interface of the satellite communication function can be provided with an "enable" control of the satellite communication function, and the user can turn on the satellite communication function by clicking the "enable" control.

[0183] In some embodiments, the user can also turn on the satellite communication function through the "satellite network" APP icon displayed on the desktop or the "satellite network" icon or option displayed from the control center.

[0184] (2) The satellite communication module is powered on to attempt to connect to the Tianhong satellite.

[0185] In order to improve the endurance of the electronic device, the satellite communication module can be in a power-off sleep state when the satellite communication function is not turned on, and the satellite communication module can enter a power-on state when the satellite communication function is turned on, and attempt to connect to the Tianhong satellite through the satellite communication module.

[0186] (3) In the case that the satellite communication module is powered on, the mobile communication module (cellular network function is not available), the wireless communication module (Wi-Fi network function, NFC function, etc. are not available), and the camera module (photographing function is not available) are powered off.

[0187] In order to avoid system interference between the satellite communication module and the mobile communication module, the wireless communication module, the camera module, etc., the mobile communication module, the wireless communication module, the camera module, etc. can be powered off or the mobile communication network, the wireless communication network and the photographing function can be closed on the software level when the satellite communication module is powered on.

[0188] In some embodiments, the user uses the satellite communication function of the electronic device is usually in a relatively urgent scenario, in such a scenario, the power of the electronic device is precious, and powering off the mobile communication module, the wireless communication module, the camera module, etc. can also reduce the power consumption of the electronic device, prolong the standby time of the electronic device, and improve the possibility of successful rescue.

[0189] (4) In the case that the satellite communication module is powered on, searching for a satellite and pointing to a satellite are performed.

[0190] (5) If the searching for a satellite and / or pointing to a satellite fails, corresponding interface prompt information is output.

[0191] The searching for a satellite and the pointing to a satellite can be correspondingly provided with a time threshold, which can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this. For example, the time threshold can be 60s, 90s, or 120s, etc. When the searching for a satellite is not successfully performed within the searching time threshold, the electronic device can output the prompt information "searching for a satellite fails", and when the searching for a satellite is successful, the pointing to a satellite is not successfully performed within the pointing time threshold, the electronic device can output the prompt information "satellite connection timeout".

[0192] In some embodiments, if the electronic device fails to search for a satellite, the electronic device can exit the searching for a satellite and the pointing to a satellite in response to a user operation, that is, exit the satellite connection, or perform the searching for a satellite and the pointing to a satellite again in response to a user operation to attempt to perform the satellite connection again.

[0193] In some embodiments, when entering the searching for a satellite state, the satellite connection state interface can display a searching for a satellite countdown, and after the searching for a satellite countdown ends, if the electronic device does not complete the searching for a satellite, the electronic device can output the prompt information "searching for a satellite fails". After the searching for a satellite is successful, the satellite connection state interface displays a connection countdown, and after the connection countdown ends, if the electronic device does not complete the connection with the satellite, the electronic device can output the prompt information "satellite connection timeout".

[0194] In some embodiments, the possible reasons for the searching for a satellite failure or the searching for a satellite success but failing to connect to a satellite can include, but are not limited to: the electronic device is in a non-open area, causing the satellite signal to be blocked by environmental objects, the satellite signal is weak due to the shielding of the protective shell of the electronic device, the pointing angle is wrong, the searching for a satellite times out, etc.

[0195] (6) If the search and the target are successful, initiate network registration to the Tian Tong satellite.

[0196] (7) If the SIM card opens the satellite communication service, the network registration is successful, and the connection with the Tian Tong satellite is established.

[0197] (8) In response to the second operation of the user, the satellite call and / or satellite short message service is executed.

[0198] After the electronic device establishes a communication connection with the Tian Tong satellite, the user can use the satellite communication function of the electronic device to make a satellite call or send a satellite message to other electronic devices. For example, the electronic device can initiate a satellite call to a designated contact in response to the second operation of the user on the dialing interface, or the electronic device can send a satellite message to a designated contact in response to the second operation of the user on the short message interface.

[0199] (9) If the SIM card does not open the satellite communication service, the network registration fails, and the communication connection with the Tian Tong satellite cannot be established, the corresponding prompt information is displayed.

[0200] If the SIM card installed in the electronic device does not open the satellite communication service, the electronic device cannot perform network registration on the Tian Tong satellite, that is, the electronic device cannot connect to the Tian Tong satellite. The electronic device can display a prompt information "SIM card does not open satellite communication service", or can display a prompt information "Tian Tong satellite is only for XX card users, please contact XX to open this service before using this service".

[0201] In some embodiments, the reason why the network registration on the Tian Tong satellite cannot be performed can include that the International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) of the electronic device is not registered with the XX operator, the SIM card of the electronic device does not open the satellite communication service, the SIM card of the electronic device does not open roaming, etc.

[0202] (10) Disconnect the communication connection with the Tian Tong satellite.

[0203] After the electronic device establishes a communication connection with the Tian Tong satellite, the electronic device can also disconnect the communication connection with the Tian Tong satellite. The disconnection mode can include active disconnection and passive disconnection.

[0204] Active disconnection can be that the user actively closes the communication connection between the electronic device and the Tiantong satellite. The user can actively close the communication connection between the electronic device and the Tiantong satellite through a satellite exit interface or a satellite switch interface. For example, the satellite exit interface is an interface in the "Satellite Network" APP, and the user clicks the "Disconnect" control in the "Satellite Network" APP to realize the disconnection of the communication connection with the Tiantong satellite. For example, the satellite switch interface is an interface in the control center that contains the "Satellite Network" icon, and the user clicks the "Satellite Network" icon (the icon is grayed out) displayed in the control center to realize the disconnection of the communication connection with the Tiantong satellite.

[0205] Passive disconnection can refer to a situation where the electronic device loses the satellite connection. The situation of losing the satellite can refer to that due to the change of the position of the electronic device, the connection state with the Tiantong satellite changes from connected to disconnected. For example, after the electronic device establishes a communication connection with the Tiantong satellite, the electronic device changes with the change of the position of the user or the change of the hand-held posture, which can cause the disconnection of the communication connection with the Tiantong satellite.

[0206] In the case where the satellite loss lasts for a preset time (which can also be referred to as a satellite loss timeout), the electronic device can display corresponding prompt information. The preset time can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this, for example, the preset time is 60s. The corresponding prompt information can be a pop-up prompt information "Satellite connection has been lost for 60s, and the Tiantong satellite communication will be exited soon", which can include the options "Continue to use" and "Exit (x seconds)". If the user does not click the "Continue to use" option before the exit countdown x seconds, the electronic device will automatically close the satellite communication function.

[0207] (11) Close the satellite communication switch.

[0208] After the electronic device disconnects the communication connection with the Tiantong satellite, the satellite communication switch can be automatically closed or in response to the user operation. In the case where the electronic device closes the satellite communication switch, the satellite communication module is powered off.

[0209] In the case where the electronic device closes the satellite communication switch, the electronic device can also reopen the satellite communication switch in response to the user operation.

[0210] (12) The satellite communication module is powered off.

[0211] (13) In the case where the satellite communication module is powered off, the mobile communication module (the cellular network function is restored to be available), the wireless communication module (the Wi-Fi network function and the NFC function are restored to be available), and the camera module (the shooting function is restored to be available) are powered on.

[0212] Please refer to FIG. 5a and FIG. 5b, which illustrate the operation flow of the satellite communication function based on the Tianhong satellite.

[0226] In the enablement interface as shown in (b) in FIG. 6b, prompt information "Only supports XX card" (for example, "Only supports Telecom card") can also be displayed. When the user clicks the prompt information "Only supports XX card", the prompt information "Tian Tong satellite communication is only for XX card users. Before using the service, please contact XX to open the service" can be displayed in the form of a pop-up box. The user can also close the pop-up box by clicking the "I know" option in the pop-up box. In other embodiments, before outputting the above prompt "Only supports XX card", it can be determined whether the SIM card currently used by the electronic device is a SIM card supporting the Tian Tong satellite communication function. If the terminal device used by the user supports the Tian Tong satellite communication function, the above prompt "Only supports XX card" can not be displayed.

[0227] In some embodiments, if the user is not opening the satellite communication function for the first time, (a) in FIG. 6b can be directly skipped, and the enablement interface as shown in (b) in FIG. 6b can be directly displayed.

The satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (a) of FIG. 6e includes a connecting countdown (for example, starting from 120s), a connecting prompt information, a connecting animation effect, and the current longitude, latitude, and altitude of the electronic device. The connecting prompt information can include "Connecting (***s) has aligned the satellite. Please confirm that there is no building or tree obstruction in the direction", and the connecting animation effect can be an animation effect of the Earth pattern 101 continuously receiving the signal emitted by the satellite pattern 103.

[0240] In some embodiments, the satellite connection status interface 10 shown in (a) of FIG. 6e can also be collapsed by a downward sliding operation, and after the satellite connection status interface 10 is collapsed, it is displayed in the form of a banner window 11, as shown in (b) of FIG. 6e.

[0241] Before the countdown ends, if a connection with the Tiandi satellite is successfully established, the satellite connection status interface 10 displays content as shown in (c) of FIG. 6e. Before the countdown ends, if a connection with the Tiandi satellite is not successfully established, an interface as shown in (d) of FIG. 6e can be displayed. The interface shown in (d) of FIG. 6e includes satellite connection timeout prompt information and a "reconnect" control. The satellite connection timeout prompt information can be "Satellite connection timeout. Please rotate the mobile phone according to the prompt to move the satellite to the designated area". If the user clicks the "reconnect" control, the electronic device can again attempt to establish a connection with the Tiandi satellite.

[0242] In some embodiments, before the countdown ends, if a connection with the Tiandi satellite is not successfully established, a connection timeout prompt box can also be displayed, and the content of the connection timeout prompt box can include "The card may not have been opened for Tiandi satellite service. Please contact the relevant operator to open it and then retry".

[0243] In the satellite connection status interface 10 shown in (c) of FIG. 6e, prompt information that the electronic device has successfully connected to the Tiandi satellite, the strength of the satellite signal, and an effect picture that the earth pattern 101 and the satellite pattern 103 have established a connection are displayed. The prompt information that the electronic device has successfully connected to the Tiandi satellite can include "Successfully connected to the satellite. The current signal is good. Please keep the handset in a handheld posture", and the strength of the satellite signal can be displayed by the number of signal grids. The effect picture that the earth pattern 101 and the satellite pattern 103 have established a connection can be an animation effect in which the satellite pattern 103 expands a signal waveform in the direction of the earth pattern 101, or an animation effect in which the earth pattern 101 expands a signal waveform in the direction of the satellite pattern 103.

[0244] The satellite connection status interface 10 shown in (c) of FIG. 6e also supports being collapsed by a downward sliding operation, and after the satellite connection status interface 10 is collapsed, it is displayed in the form of a banner window 11, as shown in (a) of FIG. 6f.

[0245] In some embodiments, when the satellite signal is strong (for example, a satellite signal strength of 2 grids or more), the fan-shaped area 102 can be displayed in color 1, and when the satellite signal is weak (for example, a satellite signal strength of less than 2 grids), the fan-shaped area 102 can be displayed in color 2, so as to facilitate the user to intuitively determine the current satellite signal strength. For example, color 1 can be green, and color 2 can be blue.

[0246] The "satellite network" APP interface in (a) of FIG. 6f can also display a "satellite phone" icon and a "satellite message" icon. The user can click the "satellite phone" icon to enter a satellite phone dialing interface, as shown in (b) of FIG. 6f, and click the "satellite message" icon to enter a satellite message editing interface. The "satellite phone" icon has a satellite badge added compared to the original (i.e., before the satellite communication function is enabled) "phone" icon, and the "satellite message" icon has a satellite badge added compared to the original "message" icon.

[0247] The "satellite network" APP interface in (a) of FIG. 6f can also display a "disconnect" control. The user can click the "disconnect" control to actively disconnect from the Tianhong satellite. If the user clicks the "disconnect" control, a prompt box can first be popped up for confirmation of disconnection. The prompt box can include disconnection prompt information, a "cancel" option, and a "confirm" option. The disconnection prompt information can be "Confirm to exit Tianhong satellite communication?" If the user clicks the "confirm" option again, the electronic device will disconnect from the Tianhong satellite.

[0248] In (b) of FIG. 6f, the satellite connection status interface 10 is displayed in the form of a banner window 11 by default to facilitate user dialing. In the keyboard dialing area displayed in (b) of FIG. 6f, the dialing icon has a satellite badge added compared to the original dialing icon to prompt the user that the current phone being dialed is a satellite phone.

[0249] The banner window 11 displayed in (b) of FIG. 6f can also be expanded, for example, by double-clicking or swiping down the banner window 11 to expand the satellite connection status interface 10. As shown in (c) of FIG. 6f, this is the display state of the banner window 11 displayed in (b) of FIG. 6f when it is expanded.

[0250] The user can also return to the desktop by swiping up (e.g., from the bottom of the screen), i.e., display the interface shown in (d) of FIG. 6f. For example, the electronic device currently displays the interface content shown in (a), (b), or (c) of FIG. 6f. The user can return to the desktop by swiping up, and the electronic device displays the interface shown in (d) of FIG. 6f.

[0251] In (d) of FIG. 6f, the phone icon displayed on the desktop is a "satellite phone" icon, the message icon is a "satellite message" icon, and the banner window 11 (used to display the satellite connection status) is displayed on the desktop.

[0252] The operation flow diagram of the electronic device establishing a connection with the satellite will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 7a-7d.

[0253] The enable interface shown in (a) of FIG. 7a is the same as the enable interface shown in (b) of FIG. 6b, and will not be described again here.

[0254] After the user clicks the "enable" control, if the magnetic field sensor accuracy of the electronic device does not meet the preset requirements, calibration is triggered, and the satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (b) of FIG. 7a is displayed to perform accuracy calibration. If the magnetic field sensor accuracy of the electronic device meets the preset requirements, calibration is not triggered, and the satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (c) of FIG. 7a is displayed.

[0255] The satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (b) of FIG. 7a includes calibration prompt information and a calibration animation. The calibration animation can be that a round ball can rotate at the edge of the circle as the user tilts the electronic device, and the calibration prompt information can include "accuracy calibration, please tilt the device to the maximum amplitude to complete the calibration circle". The user can calibrate the magnetic field sensor according to the calibration prompt information, and after completing the calibration of the magnetic field sensor, the satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (c) of FIG. 7a can be displayed.

[0256] The satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (c) of FIG. 7a is the same as the satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (a) of FIG. 6d, and will not be described again here.

[0257] If the electronic device fails to search for a satellite, the content displayed by the satellite connection state interface 10 changes from the interface shown in (c) of FIG. 7a to the interface shown in (d) of FIG. 7a. The satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (d) of FIG. 7a is the same as the satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (b) of FIG. 6d, and will not be described again here.

[0258] If the electronic device successfully acquires the satellite, the content displayed by the satellite connection status interface 10 changes from the interface shown in (c) of FIG. 7a to the interface shown in (a) of FIG. 7b. The satellite connection status interface 10 shown in (a) of FIG. 7b can include alignment prompt information, an alignment animation, and the current latitude, longitude, and altitude of the electronic device. The alignment prompt information can include "Align the satellite. Turn the phone to the right to move the satellite to the sector 102," and the alignment animation can include an animation ae1 in which the handheld phone is turned to the right and an animation in which the satellite pattern 103 is aligned with the earth pattern 101. In the animation in which the satellite pattern 103 is aligned with the earth pattern 101, the satellite pattern 103 can rotate around the earth pattern 101 as the user turns the phone, e.g., the satellite pattern 103 rotates in a clockwise orbit along the circle shown in (a) of FIG. 7b as the user turns the phone to the right. When the satellite pattern 103 moves to the sector 102 shown in (a) of FIG. 7b, it indicates that the alignment of the satellite azimuth is complete. The satellite connection status interface 10 shown in (a) of FIG. 7b can be collapsed to be displayed in the form of a banner window 11. For example, the satellite connection status interface 10 can be collapsed in response to a downward swipe operation by the user, and the display effect after the satellite connection status interface 10 is collapsed is shown in (b) of FIG. 7b.

[0259] During the satellite azimuth alignment, as the satellite pattern 103 moves to the sector 102 shown in (a) of FIG. 7b, the earth pattern 101 can not be completely exposed, indicating that the alignment of the satellite elevation or third dimension angle (left-right tilt angle) is still required, i.e., the content displayed by the satellite connection status interface 10 changes from the interface shown in (a) of FIG. 7b to the interface shown in (c) of FIG. 7b or the interface shown in (a) of FIG. 7c.

[0260] The satellite connection status interface 10 shown in (c) of FIG. 7b can include the alignment prompt information, the alignment animation, and the current longitude, latitude, and altitude of the electronic device. The alignment prompt information can include "align the satellite by tilting the phone upward until the earth pattern 101 is fully exposed", and the alignment animation can include the animation ae2 of the handheld phone tilting upward and the animation of the earth pattern 101 being exposed upward or hidden downward. As the phone is tilted upward, the earth pattern 101 can be exposed upward from the bottom and gradually expanded until the earth pattern 101 is fully exposed (the earth pattern 101 fills the center circle C1), indicating that the phone is aligned with the pitch angle of the Tian Tong satellite, and the content displayed by the satellite connection status interface 10 can be changed from the interface shown in (c) of FIG. 7b to the interface shown in (b) of FIG. 7c. The animation of the earth pattern 101 being exposed upward or hidden downward can enable the user to intuitively know whether the phone is aligned with the pitch angle of the Tian Tong satellite, save the time for aligning the pitch angle, and improve the user's experience of aligning with the satellite. The satellite connection status interface 10 shown in (c) of FIG. 7b can be collapsed to be displayed in the form of the banner window 11. For example, the satellite connection status interface 10 can be collapsed in response to a downward sliding operation of the user, and the display effect after the satellite connection status interface 10 is collapsed is shown in (d) of FIG. 7b. The banner window 11 can also display the alignment prompt information, the alignment animation, and the current longitude, latitude, and altitude of the electronic device.

[0261] The satellite connection status interface 10 shown in (a) of FIG. 7c can include the alignment prompt information, the alignment animation, and the current longitude, latitude, and altitude of the electronic device. The alignment prompt information can include "align the satellite by tilting the phone to the right until the earth pattern 101 is fully exposed", and the alignment animation can include the animation ae3 of the handheld phone tilting to the right and the animation of the earth pattern 101 being exposed to the right or hidden to the left. As the phone is tilted to the right, the earth pattern 101 can be exposed to the right from the left side and gradually expanded until the earth pattern 101 is fully exposed (the earth pattern 101 fills the center circle C1), indicating that the phone is aligned with the third dimension angle of the Tian Tong satellite, and the content displayed by the satellite connection status interface 10 can be changed from the interface shown in (a) of FIG. 7c to the interface shown in (b) of FIG. 7c. The animation of the earth pattern 101 being exposed to the right or hidden to the left can enable the user to intuitively know whether the phone is aligned with the third dimension angle of the Tian Tong satellite, save the time for aligning the third dimension angle, and improve the user's experience of aligning with the satellite. The satellite connection status interface 10 shown in (a) of FIG. 7c can also be collapsed to be displayed in the form of the banner window 11.

[0262] After the alignment of the azimuth of the satellite is completed, if the elevation angle and the third dimension angle between the electronic device and the satellite satisfy the preset requirements (for example, the earth pattern 101 is completely exposed in the center circle C1), it indicates that the alignment of the elevation angle and the third dimension angle of the satellite is not required, and the content displayed by the satellite connection state interface 10 can be changed from the interface shown in (a) in FIG. 7b to the interface shown in (b) in FIG. 7c. The satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (b) in FIG. 7c can be folded and displayed in the form of the banner window 11. For example, the satellite connection state interface 10 can be folded in response to a downward sliding operation of the user, and the display effect of the satellite connection state interface 10 after being folded is shown in (c) in FIG. 7c.

[0263] The satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (b) in FIG. 7c is the same as the satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (a) in FIG. 6e, and details are not repeated here.

[0264] After the interface shown in (b) in FIG. 7c is displayed, if the connection with the satellite is successfully established before the countdown ends, the content displayed by the satellite connection state interface 10 is shown in (d) in FIG. 7c. The satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (d) in FIG. 7c is the same as the satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (c) in FIG. 6e, and details are not repeated here. If the connection with the satellite is not successfully established before the countdown ends, the content displayed by the satellite connection state interface 10 is shown in (a) in FIG. 7d. The satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (a) in FIG. 7d is the same as the satellite connection state interface 10 shown in (d) in FIG. 6e, and details are not repeated here.

[0265] After the interface shown in (d) in FIG. 7c is displayed, if the position and / or the posture of the electronic device changes, it can cause the satellite signal to be poor and the satellite needs to be aligned again. The content displayed by the satellite connection state interface 10 can be changed from the interface shown in (d) in FIG. 7c to the interface shown in (b) in FIG. 7d to prompt the user to align the satellite again. The interface shown in (b) in FIG. 7d can include a realignment prompt information, an alignment animation, and the current longitude, latitude and altitude of the electronic device. The realignment prompt information can include "Please align the satellite as the device position is deviated. The satellite signal is poor. Please move the phone to the right". After the satellite is aligned, the content displayed by the satellite connection state interface 10 can be changed from the interface shown in (b) in FIG. 7d to the interface shown in (d) in FIG. 7c, or after the satellite is aligned, if the elevation angle is not aligned, the content displayed by the satellite connection state interface 10 can be changed from the interface shown in (b) in FIG. 7d to the interface shown in (c) in FIG. 7b, or if the third dimension angle is not aligned, the content displayed by the satellite connection state interface 10 can be changed from the interface shown in (b) in FIG. 7d to the interface shown in (a) in FIG. 7c.

[0266] After the interface shown in (d) of FIG. 7c is displayed for a preset time length, the satellite connection state interface 10 can be automatically closed and displayed in the form of the banner window 11, or the satellite connection state interface 10 can be closed in response to a user's downward sliding operation and displayed in the form of the banner window 11. The display effect after the satellite connection state interface 10 is closed is shown in (c) of FIG. 7d. The preset time length can be set according to actual needs, and embodiments of the present application do not limit the same. For example, the preset time length is 3 s. The interface shown in (c) of FIG. 7d is the same as the interface shown in (a) of FIG. 6f, and will not be described again here.

[0267] After the electronic device successfully establishes a connection with the Tiantong satellite, the user can make a satellite phone call or send a satellite short message.

[0268] The operation flow diagram for making a satellite phone call is described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 8a and 8b, and the operation flow diagram for sending a satellite short message is described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 8c and 8d.

[0269] As shown in (a) of FIG. 8a, in order to facilitate the user to dial, when the satellite phone dialing interface is displayed, the satellite connection state interface 10 is displayed by default in the form of the banner window 11. The banner window 11 can be moved in response to a user's long press operation thereon. The default display position of the banner window 11 can be the upper part of the satellite phone dialing interface.

[0270] In some embodiments, in order to reduce the visual blocking effect of the banner window 11 on the underlying interface, the banner window 11 can also be designed to have a semi-transparent display effect.

[0271] As shown in (b) of FIG. 8a, when the user dials in the keyboard dialing area, the number display area of the satellite phone dialing interface can display the user's dialing digits, and the banner window 11 can automatically avoid the keyboard dialing area and the number display area to avoid blocking the keyboard dialing area and the number display area and affecting the user's dialing experience.

[0272] For example, if it is detected that the currently displayed interface is the satellite phone dialing interface, and the digits (0-9) or "*" or "#" in the keyboard dialing area have received a user's click operation, the banner window 11 is displayed in a specified area. The specified area can be the area between the keyboard dialing area and the number display area.

[0273] In some embodiments, for other interfaces displayed by the electronic device, the banner window 11 can also be configured to actively avoid the rules, and the avoidance rules can be set based on the premise that the user's operation on the currently displayed interface is not affected, so as to reduce the visual impact or operation impact on the user caused by the banner window 11 blocking the content of the underlying interface.

[0274] In the case that the user has completed the input of the phone number and the phone number is connected, the interface displays content as shown in (c) of FIG. 8a.

[0275] In some embodiments, the satellite phone generally does not support functions such as video call, multi-person call, etc., and the call interface shown in (c) of FIG. 8a can also remove the options of "waiting", "adding call", and "video call".

[0276] In some embodiments, after the user has completed the satellite call, the interface displays content as shown in (d) of FIG. 8a. In the call record interface shown in (d) of FIG. 8a, the call record of the satellite phone is added with a satellite tag to indicate that the call is a satellite phone. For example, in the call record interface shown in (d) of FIG. 8a, the call record of the contact "Chuchu" is added with a satellite tag 16 to indicate that the call with "Chuchu" is a satellite phone, and the call record of the contact "Xiaoge" is not added with a satellite tag to indicate that the call with "Xiaoge" is a phone call based on a mobile communication network.

[0277] In some embodiments, the call record in the call details can also be added with a satellite tag to indicate that the call is a satellite phone.

[0278] As shown in (a) and (b) of FIG. 8b, the interface diagram of receiving a satellite incoming call after the electronic device and the Tianwang satellite successfully establish a connection is illustrated.

[0279] As shown in (a) of FIG. 8b, assuming that the interface displayed before receiving the satellite incoming call is a short message interface, upon receiving the satellite incoming call, the interface is changed to the incoming call interface shown in (b) of FIG. 8b, and the user can click the answer icon in the incoming call interface shown in (b) of FIG. 8b to answer the satellite incoming call, or click the hang up icon to hang up the satellite incoming call.

[0280] As shown in (a) of FIG. 8c, it is a satellite short message home page, which is basically the same as the original (i.e., without starting the satellite communication function) short message home page, except that the satellite connection state interface 10 is displayed in the form of a banner window 11 on the satellite short message home page.

[0281] As shown in (b) of FIG. 8c, it is an interface for a short message conversation with a contact, which can display the previous short message records (satellite short messages and regular short messages) with the contact. When the user does not input content in the short message input field, the send button 17 can be gray by default, and when the user inputs content in the short message input field, the send button 17 can change from gray to a specified color (for example, from gray to green).

[0282] The interface shown in (b) of FIG. 8c adds the option of "Carry location and altitude" and a location-altitude display area between the option and the SMS input box compared with the conventional SMS conversation interface. The location-altitude display area can display the longitude, latitude and altitude obtained by the electronic device, such as "N 40°10'41", E 116°10'44", 8848 m" shown in (b) of FIG. 8c. The option of "Carry location and altitude" can be set as not checked by default. If the user checks the option, the satellite SMS to be sent will execute this strategy (carry location and altitude information) by default, and other SMS will still be not checked by default, i.e. each time the user checks the option of "Carry location and altitude", it will only take effect on the current satellite SMS to be sent.

[0283] In some embodiments, the location and altitude information can be obtained when connected with the Tianhong satellite. If the location and altitude information needs to be updated, the connection with the Tianhong satellite can be exited and reconnected.

[0284] In some embodiments, if the Tianhong satellite fails to obtain the location and altitude of the electronic device, the location-altitude display area can display "No positioning information obtained".

[0285] In some embodiments, if the user checks the option of "Carry location and altitude", when the user clicks the send button 17, the prompt box shown in (c) of FIG. 8c can also be displayed. The prompt box can include the prompt information "Location information will occupy SMS characters", the "Cancel" and "Confirm sending" options. If the user clicks the "Cancel" option, the satellite SMS will not be sent. If the user clicks the "Confirm sending" option, the satellite SMS will be sent. The interface for sending the satellite SMS is shown in (a) of FIG. 8d.

[0286] In the interface shown in (a) of FIG. 8d, the progress bar for sending the satellite SMS is basically the same as the progress bar for sending the conventional SMS, except that a satellite icon is added on the left side of "Sending" to indicate that the SMS being sent is a satellite SMS.

[0287] If the user inputs "I have safely arrived at the summit." in the conventional SMS input box, the content displayed in the SMS conversation interface after sending is also "I have safely arrived at the summit.". As shown in (a) of FIG. 8d, if the user sends a satellite SMS, the SMS content is "I have safely arrived at the summit.", and the option of "Carry location and altitude" is checked. After sending, the content displayed in the SMS conversation interface is "[Tianhong satellite message] I have safely arrived at the summit. N 40°10'41", E 116°10'44", 8848 m".

[0288] When the satellite message is sent successfully, the interface can be changed from the interface shown in (a) of FIG. 8d to the interface shown in (b) of FIG. 8d, and the satellite message sending time is increased by a satellite superscript to indicate that the successfully sent message is a satellite message.

[0289] When the satellite signal becomes poor, the satellite message can fail to be sent, as shown in (c) of FIG. 8d, the banner window 11 displays that the satellite signal is poor, and the message conversation interface displays that the satellite message fails to be sent. The satellite message sending failure time is increased by a satellite superscript compared with the conventional message sending failure time to indicate that the message that fails to be sent is a satellite message.

[0290] In some embodiments, when the satellite signal becomes poor (for example, lower than 2 bars) or is disconnected from the satellite, the banner window 11 can be automatically unfolded into the satellite connection state interface 10, so as to facilitate the user to adjust the mobile phone posture according to the prompt information in the satellite connection state interface 10. When the satellite signal becomes good (for example, 2 bars or more), the satellite connection state interface 10 can be automatically folded into the form of the banner window 11.

[0291] After the satellite message fails to be sent, the user can also click or long-press the satellite message that fails to be sent to resend it. As shown in (d) of FIG. 8d, if the user clicks or long-presses the previously failed satellite message, a resend prompt box can be popped up. The resend prompt box includes resend prompt information, a "cancel" option and a "resend" option. The resend prompt information includes "whether to resend the suggestion to send in an open and unobstructed area to improve the success rate." If the user clicks the "cancel" option, the resend operation is not performed, and if the user clicks the "resend" option, the satellite message that fails to be sent is resent.

[0292] In some embodiments, if the user clicks the "resend" option and the electronic device is currently connected to the satellite, the satellite message that fails to be sent can be directly resent, and if the user clicks the "resend" option and the electronic device is currently disconnected from the satellite, the satellite needs to be reconnected and the satellite message that fails to be sent is resent after the satellite is connected.

[0293] In some embodiments, after the satellite connection state interface 10 is folded, it can be displayed in the form of a floating window, a smart capsule or the like in addition to the form of the banner window 11.

[0294] In some embodiments, the banner window 11 can also support a user to manipulate the operation of the folding / automatic folding into a floating window or a smart capsule in a manner that minimizes the blocking effect on the underlying interface. For example, after entering the call interface 5s, the banner window 11 is automatically folded into a floating window or a smart capsule (a smart capsule display scheme of the Honor company, as shown in (a) of FIG. 8f).

[0295] As shown in (a) of FIG. 8e, a display effect diagram of the floating window 18 is shown. As shown in (b) of FIG. 8e, the floating window 18 can be moved to any position of the current interface according to the user's operation (for example, a long press operation).

[0296] As shown in (a) of FIG. 8f, a display effect diagram of the smart capsule 19 is shown. The content displayed by the smart capsule 19 can include a satellite icon and prompt information (for example, the prompt information can include the status of the satellite signal, and whether the satellite is successfully connected, etc.), and since the display area of the smart capsule 19 is small, the smart capsule 19 can display the prompt information in a scrolling manner. As shown in (b) of FIG. 8f, taking the banner window 11 supporting folding into the smart capsule 19 as an example, when the user clicks any position of the smart capsule 19, the smart capsule 19 can be expanded into the form of the banner window 11.

[0297] In some embodiments, taking an electronic device supporting dual SIM dual standby (or supporting more SIM cards as the communication technology develops) as an example, if the electronic device is in an area without an operator mobile communication network and is not connected to a satellite, the dialing interface is as shown in (a) of FIG. 9a, and the keyboard dialing area includes two dialing icons 20 corresponding to one SIM card. When the user dials a phone, the call interface is as shown in (b) of FIG. 9a, the status bar displays "no service", and a prompt box can be popped up to prompt "unable to access the mobile network", and the user cannot successfully dial a phone. When the user sends a short message, the short message conversation interface is as shown in (c) of FIG. 9a, the status bar displays "no service", and the user cannot successfully send a short message.

[0298] If the electronic device is in an area without an operator mobile communication network and has connected to a satellite, the dialing interface can be as shown in (a) of FIG. 9b, the status bar displays a satellite icon, and the keyboard dialing area only displays the dialing icon corresponding to the SIM card that can dial a satellite phone, so as to facilitate the user to initiate a satellite phone, avoid using the SIM card that cannot dial a satellite phone in the dialing interface to dial a satellite phone, and improve the operation efficiency of dialing a satellite phone.

[0299] For example, the electronic device is installed with a first SIM card and a second SIM card, the first SIM card supports the Tianhong satellite communication function, the second SIM card does not support the Tianhong satellite communication function, the dialing interface uses the first SIM card for dialing by default, and the keyboard dialing area only displays the dialing icon corresponding to the first SIM card. Compared with the scheme of displaying two dialing icons, the user cannot initiate a satellite telephone call by clicking another dialing icon.

[0300] If the electronic device is in an area without an operator mobile communication network and has connected the satellite, the SMS conversation interface can be as shown in (b) of FIG. 9b, the status bar displays the satellite icon, and the user can send a satellite SMS through the SMS conversation interface shown in (b) of FIG. 9b.

[0301] In some embodiments, the SMS conversation interface shown in (b) of FIG. 9b can also display the "Carry Location and Altitude" option as the interface shown in (b) of FIG. 8c.

[0302] In some embodiments, when the user is in an area without an operator mobile communication network, the user can not or forget to turn on the satellite communication function before making a call / sending an SMS. The user can be guided to turn on the satellite communication function during the process of making a call / sending an SMS, so that the user can successfully make a satellite call / send a satellite SMS without having to turn on the satellite communication function in the operation mode shown in (a), (b), and (c) of FIG. 6a, reducing the operation complexity of making a satellite call / sending a satellite SMS and improving the user experience.

[0303] The operation flowchart of actively guiding the user to turn on the satellite communication function during the process of making a call or sending an SMS is described in detail below in conjunction with FIGS. 10a-10d.

[0304] As shown in (a) of FIG. 10a, it is assumed that the user is currently in an area without an operator mobile communication network, and the electronic device is installed with only one SIM card. The user operates the electronic device to make a call. The electronic device displays the dialing interface as shown in (a) of FIG. 10a, and the status bar displays "No service". When the user inputs a phone number in the keypad dialing area, the electronic device displays the dialing interface as shown in (b) of FIG. 10a, and the status bar displays "No service". When the user completes the phone number input and clicks the dialing icon, the electronic device displays the call interface as shown in (a) of FIG. 10b, the status bar displays "No service", and a satellite connection guidance prompt box b1 is displayed on the call interface. The satellite connection guidance prompt box b1 can include satellite connection guidance prompt information, a "Cancel" option, and a "Connect to satellite" option. The satellite connection guidance prompt information can include "Cannot access the mobile network, can try to make a satellite call". If the user clicks the "Cancel" option, it indicates that the user gives up trying to make a satellite call. If the user clicks the "Connect to satellite" option, the electronic device can display the satellite connection status interface 10 as shown in (b) of FIG. 10b after successfully connecting to the satellite, and the status bar displays a satellite icon. The satellite connection status interface 10 can automatically be closed to a banner window 11 as shown in (c) of FIG. 10b after a preset time (for example, 3 seconds) after successfully connecting to the satellite.

[0305] In some embodiments, if the user clicks the "Connect to satellite" option, the satellite connection status interface 10 can be opened on the call interface as shown in (a) of FIG. 10b. After searching for a satellite, aiming at the satellite, and connecting (see FIGS. 7a-7d), the satellite connection status interface 10 is as shown in (b) of FIG. 10b.

[0306] As shown in (c) of FIG. 10b, the electronic device can successfully make a call through the satellite communication function after connecting to the satellite.

[0307] In some embodiments, the call interface as shown in (c) of FIG. 10b can also display prompt information 201 of the satellite call time that can be supported by the current power, so as to help the user reasonably plan the call time and improve the possibility of successful rescue. For example, the prompt information is "The current power is expected to support x minutes of satellite call".

[0308] In some embodiments, the length of time that the satellite call can be supported by the current remaining power can be calculated according to the remaining power (for example, the remaining percentage of power) of the current electronic device and the satellite call time corresponding to the unit power (1% power). For example, the satellite call is 3 minutes, and 1% power is expected to be consumed. The full power is expected to support 300 minutes of call.

[0309] In some embodiments, the call interface can also display the prompt information 201 of the satellite call time that can be supported in different ways according to different remaining power. For example, if the remaining power of the electronic device is greater than 20%, the display mode adopted is: entering the call interface for more than a1 seconds, the prompt information 201 of the satellite call time that can be supported by the current power is displayed once, and the prompt information is displayed for a2 seconds and then disappears. The values of a1 and a2 can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto. For example, the value of a1 is 30, and the value of a2 is 20. For example, the remaining power of the electronic device is 80%, the user dials a satellite phone to enter a call interface for more than 30 seconds, and the prompt information "the current power is expected to support 240 minutes of satellite phone" can be displayed in the bottom area of the call interface at the 30s of entering the call interface. The prompt information is displayed for 20 seconds and then disappears. It can be understood that if the remaining power of the electronic device changes from 80% to 79% during the 20 seconds of continuous display of the prompt information, the prompt information can be changed to "the current power is expected to support 237 minutes of satellite phone".

[0310] If the remaining power of the electronic device is less than or equal to 20%, the display mode adopted is: when entering the call interface, the prompt information 201 of the satellite call time that can be supported by the current power is displayed in a flashing manner. For example, the remaining power of the electronic device is 15%, and when the user dials a satellite phone to enter a call interface, the prompt information "the current power is expected to support 45 minutes of satellite phone" can be displayed in the bottom area of the call interface in a flashing manner. The prompt information is displayed in a flashing manner until the call interface is exited. It can be understood that if the remaining power of the electronic device changes from 15% to 14% during the process of continuously flashing the prompt information, the prompt information can be changed to "the current power is expected to support 42 minutes of satellite phone".

[0311] As shown in (a) of FIG. 10c, assuming that the user is currently in an area without an operator mobile communication network, the user operates the electronic device to send a short message, and the electronic device displays a short message home page as shown in (a) of FIG. 10c, with the status bar displaying "No Service". When the user selects a recipient of the short message, the electronic device displays a short message conversation interface as shown in (b) of FIG. 10c, with the status bar displaying "No Service". When the user finishes inputting the content of the short message and clicks the send button 17, the electronic device displays a short message conversation interface as shown in (a) of FIG. 10d, with the status bar displaying "No Service", and a satellite connection guidance prompt box b1 is displayed above the short message conversation interface, the satellite connection guidance prompt box b1 can include satellite connection guidance prompt information, a "cancel" option, and a "connect satellite" option. The satellite connection guidance prompt information can include "Unable to access a mobile network, can attempt to send a satellite short message". If the user clicks the "cancel" option, indicating that the user gives up attempting to send a satellite short message, and if the user clicks the "connect satellite" option, the electronic device can display a satellite connection status interface 10 as shown in (b) of FIG. 10d after successfully connecting to a satellite, with the status bar displaying a satellite icon. The satellite connection status interface 10 can automatically be closed into a banner window 11 as shown in (c) of FIG. 10d after a preset time period (for example, 3s) after successfully connecting to a satellite.

[0312] In some embodiments, if the user clicks the "connect satellite" option, the satellite connection status interface 10 can be opened above the short message conversation interface as shown in (a) of FIG. 10d, and after searching for a satellite, aiming at the satellite, and connecting (see FIGS. 7a-7d), the satellite connection status interface 10 can be as shown in (b) of FIG. 10d.

[0313] As shown in (c) of FIG. 10d, after connecting to a satellite, the electronic device can successfully send a short message through the satellite communication function.

[0314] In some embodiments, since there can also be a situation of no operator mobile communication network in an indoor environment (for example, a low parking lot, a basement, etc.), under this situation, the electronic device generally cannot establish a connection with a Tengwang satellite due to the shielding of a building, and this situation generally does not belong to a scene that needs to be rescued, so the premise of actively guiding the user to turn on the satellite communication function during the process of the user making a call or sending a short message can also include detecting that the electronic device is currently outdoors, rather than indoors.

[0315] For example, the electronic device can actively measure global positioning system (GPS) signals, and according to the measured GPS signal information, determine whether the current location of the electronic device is an indoor location or an outdoor location.

[0316] For example, the electronic device can further acquire wireless network signal information, determine a wireless network signal information group to which the electronic device belongs according to the wireless network signal information, and determine a position corresponding to the wireless network signal information group according to a mapping relationship in the identification model, to obtain the current position of the electronic device. The wireless network signal information can include one or any combination of the following: timing advance (TA), direction of arrival (DoA), and reference signal receiving power (RSRP) of a serving cell. The identification model records positions (indoor or outdoor) of electronic devices corresponding to different wireless network signal information groups, wherein the positions of electronic devices corresponding to the same wireless network signal information group are the same.

[0317] In some embodiments, since the use scenario of a satellite phone or a satellite short message is generally that a user is in an extreme environment and needs to contact the outside world, the power of the electronic device is precious, and in order to improve the possibility of successful rescue of the user, the electronic device can prompt the user in the form of a pop-up window whether to start the power saving mode or automatically start the power saving mode when it is detected that the user has performed satellite connection (star search, star alignment), or sent a satellite short message, or dialed a satellite phone, and there is no mobile communication network at present.

[0318] As shown in FIG. 11, the electronic device can prompt the user in the form of a pop-up window whether to start the super power saving mode when it is detected that the user has dialed a satellite phone and there is no mobile communication network at present. The pop-up window 21 can include prompt information for prompting the user to start the super power saving mode and an option of "start the super power saving mode". The prompt information can include "use the super power saving mode to greatly save the power and monitor that you have just dialed a satellite phone". If the user clicks the option of "start the super power saving mode", the electronic device starts the super power saving mode.

[0319] In some embodiments, the electronic device can close the previously started satellite communication function in various ways. For example, after the user is rescued, or the area where the user is located is an area where there is a mobile communication network, the user no longer needs to use the satellite communication function.

[0320] As shown in FIG. 12, the electronic device can exit the satellite communication function in four ways. As shown in (a) of FIG. 12, if the electronic device is disconnected from the satellite for a3 seconds, a prompt box 22 can be popped up, prompting that the satellite communication will be exited. The value of a3 can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this, for example, the value of a3 is 60s. The prompt box 22 can include prompt information for prompting the user that the electronic device will close the satellite communication function, the options of "continue to use" and "exit (x seconds)". The prompt information can include "not connected to the satellite for 60s, about to exit the satellite communication". If the user does not click the "continue to use" option before the exit countdown x seconds (for example, 10s), the electronic device will automatically close the satellite communication function. If the user clicks the "continue to use" option before the exit countdown x seconds, the electronic device can try to establish a connection with the satellite again.

[0321] As shown in (b) of FIG. 12, the user can also click the "disconnect" control displayed in the "satellite network" APP interface to actively disconnect the electronic device from the satellite and exit the satellite communication.

[0322] As shown in (c) of FIG. 12, the user can also click the "x" option in the upper right corner of the satellite connection status interface 10 to actively disconnect the electronic device from the satellite and exit the satellite communication.

[0323] As shown in (d) of FIG. 12, the user can also click the "disconnect" control in the notification bar to actively disconnect the electronic device from the satellite and exit the satellite communication.

[0324] In some embodiments, when the electronic device establishes a connection with the satellite, a resident notification can be added to the notification bar on the lock screen. The display style of the notification can be as shown in (d) of FIG. 12, so that the user can quickly make a satellite call, send a satellite message, and actively disconnect the electronic device from the satellite through the resident notification. The status bar on the lock screen can display the satellite icon and the "satellite" text, so that the user can know that the electronic device is currently connected to the satellite.

[0325] Referring to FIG. 13, an embodiment of the present application provides an interface display method applied to an electronic device. The interface display method can include:

[0326] S131, in the case that the electronic device cannot access a mobile communication network, in response to a user's click operation on a first icon in a first page displayed by the electronic device, a first window is opened, and the first window includes a first option for connecting to a satellite.

[0327] S132, in response to the click operation of the user on the first option, establishing a communication connection with the satellite, and performing the service corresponding to the first icon.

[0328] In some embodiments, the electronic device can successfully perform the service corresponding to the first icon only when the mobile communication network is accessible or the connection with the satellite is established. For example, the service corresponding to the first icon is making a call or sending a message, and the first icon can be a dial icon in a dial interface or a send button in a message conversation interface. When the mobile communication network is accessible, the electronic device performs the service corresponding to the first icon by making a call or sending a message based on the mobile communication network. When the mobile communication network is inaccessible and the communication connection with the satellite is established, the electronic device performs the service corresponding to the first icon by making a satellite call or sending a satellite message based on the satellite.

[0329] When the electronic device is inaccessible to the mobile communication network, the user clicks the first icon in the first page, and the electronic device can open a first window for guiding the user to connect the electronic device to the satellite (e.g., a Thales satellite). After the user clicks the first option, the electronic device can attempt to establish a communication connection with the satellite. When the electronic device successfully establishes the communication connection with the satellite, the electronic device can successfully perform the service corresponding to the first icon. As shown in (a) of FIG. 10b, the first option can be a "connect to satellite" option.

[0330] In some embodiments, taking the dial interface as an example, in response to the click operation of the user on the first icon (dial icon) in the dial interface displayed by the electronic device, a call interface is displayed, and the first window is opened, which covers part of the content of the call interface.

[0331] In some embodiments, as shown in (c) of FIG. 10b, the call interface can further display prompt information of the call time that can be supported by the remaining power of the electronic device.

[0332] In some embodiments, when the remaining power of the electronic device is greater than the preset power, the call interface displays the prompt information of the call time that the remaining power of the electronic device is expected to support in a first display mode; when the remaining power of the electronic device is less than or equal to the preset power, the call interface displays the prompt information of the call time that the remaining power of the electronic device is expected to support in a second display mode different from the first display mode. The preset power can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this. For example, the preset power is 20%, the first display mode is: entering the call interface for more than a1 seconds, and the prompt information of the call time that the current remaining power is expected to support appears once, which lasts for a2 seconds and then disappears, and the second display mode is: when entering the call interface, the prompt information of the call time that the current remaining power is expected to support is displayed in a flashing manner. Through different prompts of the power, the user is warned to pay attention to the remaining power and avoid consuming too much power. a1 and a2 are preset values, which can be set or modified according to actual application.

[0333] In some embodiments, the electronic device can be installed with a first SIM card and a second SIM card, as shown in (a) of FIG. 9a, when the electronic device is not connected to the satellite or when it is not set to connect to the satellite with which SIM card, the dialing interface includes a first dialing icon corresponding to the first SIM card and a second dialing icon corresponding to the second SIM card. As shown in (a) of FIG. 9b, when the electronic device establishes a communication connection with the satellite based on the first SIM card, the dialing interface can only display the first dialing icon corresponding to the first SIM card. Or when the electronic device establishes a communication connection with the satellite based on the second SIM card, the dialing interface can only display the second dialing icon corresponding to the second SIM card.

[0334] In some embodiments, taking the first page as an example, the first window is opened in response to the user's click operation on the first icon in the SMS conversation interface (the send button in the SMS conversation interface) displayed by the electronic device, and the first window covers part of the content of the SMS conversation interface. As shown in (a) of FIG. 10d, the first window is a satellite connection guide prompt box displayed above the SMS conversation interface.

[0335] In some embodiments, since there may be no operator mobile communication network in indoor environments (for example, underground parking lots, basements, etc.), in this case, due to the shielding of buildings, the electronic device generally cannot establish a connection with the satellite, and this case generally does not belong to the scene that needs to be rescued. The electronic device can open the first window in response to the user's click operation on the first icon in the first page when it is detected that the electronic device is in an outdoor location and cannot access a mobile communication network.

[0336] In some embodiments, the electronic device can open the second window including the second option for opening the power saving mode after performing the service corresponding to the first icon, for example, ending the satellite call or completing the sending of the satellite short message, and the electronic device can further open the power saving mode in response to the user's click operation on the second option. As shown in FIG. 11, the second window can be a pop-up window for prompting the user whether to open the super power saving mode, and the second option can be an option of "open the super power saving mode". The electronic device can further open the second window to remind the user whether to open the power saving mode after performing the service corresponding to the first icon and detecting that there is no mobile communication network at present, so as to save the power of the electronic device.

[0337] In some embodiments, the establishing the communication connection with the satellite can include the processes of searching for the satellite, aiming at the satellite and connecting. The third window can be a satellite connection state interface. In response to the user's click operation on the first option, the establishing the communication connection with the satellite can include: in response to the user's click operation on the first option, opening the third window, the third window including the alignment pattern and the alignment area for displaying the alignment pattern, as shown in (c) of FIG. 7b, the alignment pattern can be a pattern of the earth, and the alignment area can be a central circle; in response to the user's operation of adjusting the posture of the electronic device, moving the alignment pattern so that the alignment pattern is partially displayed in the alignment area or entirely displayed in the alignment area; and in the case that the alignment pattern is entirely displayed in the alignment area, establishing the communication connection with the satellite.

[0338] In some embodiments, the user's operation of adjusting the posture of the electronic device can include tilting the electronic device upward or downward to align the pitch angle with the satellite. The user's operation of adjusting the posture of the electronic device can further include tilting the electronic device rightward or leftward to align the third dimension angle with the satellite. In response to the user's operation of adjusting the posture of the electronic device, moving the alignment pattern so that the alignment pattern is partially displayed in the alignment area or entirely displayed in the alignment area can include: in response to the user's operation of tilting the electronic device upward or downward, controlling the alignment pattern to move upward to be exposed in the alignment area or to move downward to disappear from the alignment area. In response to the user's operation of adjusting the posture of the electronic device, moving the alignment pattern so that the alignment pattern is partially displayed in the alignment area or entirely displayed in the alignment area can further include: in response to the user's operation of tilting the electronic device rightward or leftward, controlling the alignment pattern to move rightward to be exposed in the alignment area or to move leftward to disappear from the alignment area.

[0339] In some embodiments, the third window can also be collapsed into a preset display form, and the preset display form can be any one of a banner window, a floating window, and a dynamic capsule. For example, the electronic device can collapse the third window into the preset display form in response to a sliding operation of the user on the third window, or automatically collapse the third window into the preset display form after a preset time length (for example, 5 seconds) of establishing a communication connection with the satellite, and automatically expand the third window from the preset display form into an original display state (un-collapsed display state) in a situation of disconnecting the communication connection with the satellite.

[0340] In some embodiments, if the third window in the preset display form is displayed above the second page, the electronic device can also move the third window in the preset display form from the first position to a second position different from the first position in response to a clicking operation of the user on the second page, so as to realize the visual effect or operation effect of the third window in the preset display form on the content of the second page. For example, the second page is a dialing interface, and the dialing interface does not display a number display area before dialing. The third window in the preset display form is generally located in the upper half area of the dialing interface (the first position). When the user dials in the keyboard dialing area, the dialing interface can display the number display area, and the number display area is also located in the upper half area of the dialing interface, so that the third window in the preset display form blocks the number display area, causing the user to be unable to clearly see the content of the number display area. The third window in the preset display form can be moved from the first position to the second position, and the second position can be the area between the keyboard dialing area and the number display area, so as to avoid the third window in the preset display form from blocking the keyboard dialing area and the number display area.

[0341] Referring to FIG. 14, an embodiment of the present application provides an interface display method applied to an electronic device. The interface display method can include:
