Abstract
A control method for a communication device is provided. The control method includes the steps of: determining whether the communication device is in a wrong communication state when a call of a communication function is made from the communication device, and if the communication device is in the wrong communication state, prohibiting the communication function from being performed by the communication device after the call is finished.
Claims20
A control method for a communication device that prevents the communication device from initiating an unintended call, the method comprising:
- analyzing a combination of a near-end audio signal and an environmental brightness to determine whether the communication device is in a wrong communication state at an end of a current call of a communication function from the communication device;
- and
- in response to the determining that the communication device is in the wrong communication state, prohibiting the communication function from being performed again by the communication device after the current call has completed.
A control method for a communication device that prevents the communication device from initiating an unintended call, the method comprising:
- determining whether a conversation between the communication device and a remote communication device which communicates with the communication device has occurred when a current call of a communication function is made from the communication device;
- analyzing a combination of a near-end audio signal and an environmental brightness to determine whether the communication device is in a wrong communication state according to the determination result of the conversation, when the current call is terminated;
- and
- in response to determining that the communication device is in a wrong communication state when the current call is terminated, prohibiting the communication function from being performed again after the call has completed.
