Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for controlling tethering distribution. At least one leecher to which data is to be tethered is detected. Usage of the data that is to be tethered to the at least one leecher is controlled by adjusting an amount of data that is to be tethered for each of the at least one leecher.
Abstract:
A portable terminal and method thereof are provided for interworking with a wearable device. The method includes recognizing that the wearable device is placed on the portable terminal; displaying first screen data including information of the wearable device; sensing movement of the wearable device; and displaying second screen data corresponding to the movement.
Abstract:
A method of controlling an electronic device that provides a reminder of a task is provided. The controlling method includes receiving an input of a content of a reminder target task, designating a related application that is linked with the reminder target task, and generating and storing the reminder target task of which the content is to be displayed using a predetermined event as a trigger.
Abstract:
A mobile device of executing an action in a display unchecking mode and a method of controlling the same are provided. The method includes detecting a display unchecking mode trigger, entering into the display unchecking mode, upon detection of the display unchecking mode trigger, detecting a predetermined execution trigger in the display unchecking mode, and executing a predetermined action corresponding to the predetermined execution trigger, upon the detecting of the predetermined execution trigger.

Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for performing an incoming notification in an electronic device. An incoming communication is received. An importance of the incoming communication is determined based on stored contact-related information. An incoming notification level is regulated according to the importance of the incoming communication.
Abstract:
Electronic devices which execute an operation corresponding to a common object attribute among a plurality of objects having same or similar data for the common object attribute, and methods therefor, are described. The method includes determining whether at least one common object attribute exists among a plurality of objects, determining whether data for the at least one common object attribute is identical or similar among the plurality of objects if the at least one common object exists; and executing an operation corresponding to the at least one common object attribute if data for the at least one common object attribute is identical or similar among the plurality of objects.
Abstract:
A method for controlling a mobile device to perform trigger-based object display is provided. The method includes displaying a plurality of objects on a touch screen by arranging the plurality of objects on a grid with rows and columns intersecting each other, detecting a trigger occurring to at least one of the plurality of objects, and applying an emphasis effect to the at least one of the plurality of objects to which the trigger has occurred.
Abstract:
A method and device for a connection and an interaction between electronic devices using a protective cover of an electronic device are provided. The method of operating a second electronic device for an interaction between electronic devices includes detecting a communication module of a plurality of communication module included in a protective cover, the protective cover being used to protect a first electronic device; receiving information about the first electronic device from the communication module of the detected protective cover; and performing an interaction with the first electronic device using the information about the first electronic device.
Abstract:
A multi display method by a first electronic device is provided. The method includes executing first and second applications, transmitting screen data of the second application to a second electronic device, receiving an input via the second electronic device, changing the screen data of the second application based on the user input, and transmitting the changed screen data of the second application to the second electronic device.
