Abstract:
A method of providing information by an electronic device is provided. The method includes receiving a plurality of contents including first contents and second contents from at least one second application, by a first application executed in the electronic device, and generating third contents, which are different from at least some of the first contents or the second contents based on the first contents or the second contents, by the first application.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an electronic device including: a display that displays screens; a processor that displays, on the display of the electronic device, presence information of one or more counterpart devices associated with a first communication service provided through a browser application, receives a user input for communication with the one or more counterpart devices, and displays, on the display, a second screen of the browser application providing a second communication service in response to the user input; a first module including a plurality of modules for providing the first communication service; a second module including a plurality of modules for providing a second communication service; and a control module that controls the first module and the second module.
Abstract:
A method of changing a dynamic screen layout and an electronic device are provided. The method includes selecting at least two content items at least partially based on setting information associated with the content and characteristics of an application displaying the content, and providing the selected at least two content items. Furthermore, other embodiments can be made.
Abstract:
A method for determining a network status is provided. The method includes obtaining a period determined by a first processor of an electronic apparatus, using a second processor of the electronic apparatus, transmitting a preset message from the electronic apparatus to another apparatus in a network according to the determined period, using the second processor, determining the network status based on at least one of (i) whether or not a response to the preset message is received and (ii) information included in the response, using the second processor, and when the network status is determined to be abnormal, activating the first processor using the second processor.
Abstract:
An electronic device and method for controlling a deformable display are provided. The method includes sensing deformation of the deformable display, comparing a degree of the sensed deformation with a predetermined value, dividing at least a part of the deformable display based on a result of the comparison, determining at least a part of divided areas to be an active area or inactive area, and controlling at least part of information displayed in at least a part of the divided areas.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are an electronic device and a method executable therein. The electronic device includes a communication module, and a processor executing the method, which includes detecting the generation of a specific event, controlling the communication module to transmit a message to one or more other electronic devices located within a predetermined range, and control the communication module to communicate with the one or more other electronic devices based on a request from the one or more second electronic devices.
Abstract:
A first electronic device is provided. The first electronic device includes a communication circuitry and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to control the communication circuitry to connect with a second electronic device, determine data to transmit to the second electronic device, control the communication circuitry to transmit the data to the second electronic device, and when a signal, indicating that an application is executed from the second electronic device, is received after the data is transmitted, stop transmission of the data.

Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for changing a mode of a device by a server. The server receives, from a master device, at least one of a user preference document including information related to whether mode synchronization is activated between devices, a device context profile (DCP) document including a rule applied per mode, and a DCP directory document including information related to a profile activated in the DCP document. The at least one of the user preference document, the DCP document, and the DCP directory document is registered. When information related to changing a mode of the master device is received, the at least one of the user preference document, the DCP document, and the DCP directory document is changed based on the changed mode of the master device. The at least one of the changed user preference document, the changed DCP document, and the changed DCP directory document is transmitted to at least one slave device.
