Abstract
A method for interworking with an external terminal is provided. The method includes, at a mobile terminal, displaying a screen for selecting whether or not to reset the mobile terminal, if a connection request is received from a second terminal while the mobile terminal interworks with a first terminal, at the mobile terminal, generating first backup data including information about one or more execution files corresponding to one or more functions linked to the first terminal, if resetting of the mobile terminal has been selected on the screen, and at the mobile terminal, transmitting the first backup data to the first terminal, and performing resetting.
Claims21
A method for interworking with an external terminal, the method comprising:
- displaying, at a mobile terminal, a screen for selecting whether or not to reset the mobile terminal for initialization, if a connection request is received from a second terminal while the mobile terminal interworks with a first terminal;
- generating, at the mobile terminal, first backup data including information about one or more execution files corresponding to one or more functions belonging to one or more applications linked to the first terminal to restore setting values set in the one or more applications for reconnecting to the first terminal, if resetting of the mobile terminal has been selected on the screen;
- and
- transmitting, at the mobile terminal, the first backup data to the first terminal, and performing resetting of the mobile terminal.
An apparatus for interworking with an external terminal, the apparatus comprising:
- a memory configured to store instructions therein;
- a display configured to display an execution image, an operating state, and a menu state of an application program;
- a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a radio signal;
- and
- at least one processor configured, upon execution of the instructions, to:
- display a screen for selecting whether or not to reset on the display for initialization,
- if a connection request is received from a second terminal through the transceiver when the apparatus interworks with a first terminal, generate first backup data including information about one or more execution files corresponding to one or more functions belonging to one or more applications linked to the first terminal to restore setting values set in the one or more applications for reconnecting to the first terminal, and
- if resetting has been selected on the screen:
- transmit the first backup data to the first terminal through the transceiver, and
- reset the apparatus.
A non-transitory recording medium for interworking with an external terminal, the non-transitory recording medium comprising instructions that, when executed, configure at least one processor to implement:
- displaying an execution image, an operating state, and a menu state of an application program;
- transmitting and receiving a radio signal;
- displaying a screen for selecting whether or not to reset a mobile terminal for initialization;
- if a connection request is received from a second terminal when the mobile terminal interworks with a first terminal, generating first backup data including information about one or more execution files corresponding to one or more functions belonging to one or more applications linked to the first terminal to restore setting values set in the one or more applications for reconnecting to the first terminal;
- and
- if an instruction for resetting has been selected on the screen:
- transmitting the first backup data to the first terminal, and
- resetting the mobile terminal.
