Method for reproducing music file of mobile communication terminal and mobile terminal implementing the same

A mobile communication terminal which is capable of being set to a silent mode in which sound alerts of the mobile communication terminal in response to receiving an incoming call are disabled, the mobile communication terminal comprising:

• a transceiver for transmitting an outgoing call and for receiving an incoming call;
• an audio processing unit;
• a speaker;
• a connecting unit for being connected to an external audio output device;
• a touch display unit for receiving a user input;
• and
• a control unit configured to:
• control the touch display unit to display, while in the silent mode, a user interface for playback of a music file,
• in response to a user input while in the silent mode, control the audio processing unit to play the music file so as to output audio signals through the speaker,
• in response to receiving an incoming call in the silent mode, stop playing a music file,
• in response to receiving the incoming call in the silent mode, output an indication of the reception of the incoming call by vibration or without sound according to a setting of the silent mode, and
• while in the silent mode, control playing a music file depending upon detection of a change of a connection state of the external audio output device with the connecting unit.
