Dialer Interface Prompt for Airplane Mode Call Recovery
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing terminal devices, such as mobile phones, require users to manually disable airplane mode and exit calls when dialing non-emergency numbers, leading to reduced call efficiency and poor user experience due to multiple prompts and cumbersome operations.
Innovation Solution
An interface display method that includes displaying a pop-up box with a 'Disable' option when dialing a non-emergency number in airplane mode, allowing direct disablement of the mode without additional prompts, thereby simplifying the user operation and improving experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the terminal device displays multiple prompts and requires manual disabling of airplane mode, then the user is reminded to disable the mode, but the operation becomes cumbersome and call efficiency is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the reminder function and the airplane mode disabling function into a single integrated operation. When the user taps the dialing button, the system simultaneously displays the reminder prompt and provides the disabling option in the same interface, eliminating the need for separate manual steps to disable airplane mode.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary option in the dialing interface that mediates between the reminder prompt and the actual disabling action. This intermediary element allows the user to disable airplane mode directly from the dialing interface without needing to navigate to separate settings, simplifying the operation while maintaining the reminder function.
2Reliability
If the terminal device requires users to exit calls and independently disable airplane mode, then the mode is disabled, but call efficiency is reduced and user experience is affected
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables preliminary action by allowing the user to disable airplane mode before completing the call setup. The disabling option is presented in the dialing interface itself, so the user can disable the mode and proceed with the call in a single continuous operation, rather than exiting the call to disable the mode and then restarting the call.
3Reliability
If the terminal device displays pop-up boxes multiple times to remind users, then the reminder is reinforced, but user convenience is reduced due to repeated interruptions
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple reminder functions into a single comprehensive prompt displayed in the dialing interface. Instead of showing separate pop-up boxes at different stages, the system presents all necessary information and options in one integrated view, reducing repeated interruptions while maintaining reminder effectiveness.

AI summary
This disclosure discloses an interface display method and terminal device in the call technology field. When the terminal is in airplane mode and a user dials a non-emergency number, an entry is provided to quickly disable airplane mode, simplifying user operation. The method includes: displaying a first interface with a dialing button and icon indicating airplane mode; after inputting a non-emergency number, displaying it in the first interface; upon dialing, displaying a second interface with prompt information and an option to disable airplane mode; and upon selection, displaying a third interface without the icon.
