## Abstract

A method for setting a shipping mode of an electronic device. The method includes the following steps: receiving a shipping instruction sent by a host computer to enter the shipping mode; and sending a shipping-mode feedback instruction to the host computer, where the shipping-mode feedback instruction is a valid-response instruction for a successful entry into the shipping mode or an invalid-response instruction for a failed entry into the shipping mode. An electronic device and a computer readable storage medium are also provided in this application. The method for setting the shipping mode, the electronic device and the computer readable storage medium can accurately feed back whether the electronic device has successfully entered the shipping mode, to avoid a problem that the electronic device not really entering the shipping mode can leave the factory due to omission, improving users' experience.

### Claim 4

An electronic device, comprising a processor and a memory, coupled to each other, wherein the processor is configured to execute a program instruction stored in the memory to perform operations that comprise:
receiving a shipping instruction sent by a host computer to enter the shipping mode; and
sending a shipping-mode feedback instruction to the host computer, wherein the shipping-mode feedback instruction is a valid-response instruction for a successful entry into the shipping mode or an invalid-response instruction for a failed entry into the shipping mode,
wherein the electronic device comprises a master control module and a battery protection module electrically connected to the master control module, and the operation of receiving the shipping instruction sent by the host computer to enter the shipping mode further comprises:
receiving, by the master control module, the shipping instruction sent by the host computer to enter the shipping mode; and
receiving, by the battery protection module, the shipping instruction sent by the master control module, and
the operation of sending the shipping-mode feedback instruction to the host computer further comprises:
sending, by the master control module, the valid-response instruction to the host computer, in case that a shipping confirmation signal sent from the battery protection module is received within a preset time; and
