A method includes receiving a microphone audio signal and a playout audio signal, and determining a frequency representation of the microphone audio signal and a frequency representation of the playout audio signal. For each frequency representation, the method also includes determining features based on the frequency representation. Each feature corresponds to a pair of frequencies of the frequency representation and a period of time between the pair of frequencies. The method also includes determining that a match occurs between a first feature based on the frequency representation of the microphone audio signal and a second feature based on the frequency representation of the playout audio signal, and determining that a delay value between the first feature and the second feature corresponds to an echo within the microphone audio signal.

A computer-implemented method of authenticating a user with a computing device is disclosed. The method involves displaying a grid of selectable visually-distinguishable graphical elements on a device display, receiving from a user of the device a drawn pattern across the selectable graphical elements, comparing the received drawn pattern to information representing a stored authentication pattern for the user, and unlocking access to functions on the device if the received drawn pattern substantially matches the stored authentication pattern.

Pattern-based mobile device unlocking

A method includes displaying, on a display of an electronic device, first information and detecting a gesture on the touch-sensitive display, which gesture indicates a request to display an inbox associated with a plurality of applications. In response to detecting the gesture, when a message is received for a first application that is not one of the plurality of applications, a plurality of visual notification icons is displayed and at least part of the inbox is gradually displayed while reducing display of the first information along with movement of the gesture, wherein a first visual notification icon of the plurality of visual notification icons is associated with the first application.

Electronic device and method of displaying information in response to a gesture

A computer-implemented user notification method includes displaying, in a status area near a perimeter of a graphical interface, a notification of a recent alert event for a mobile device, receiving a user selection in the status area, and in response to the receipt of the user selection, displaying, in a central zone of the graphical interface, detail regarding a plurality of recent messaging events for the mobile device.

Monitoring camera

A computer-implemented user interface method includes displaying one or more display elements in a graphical user interface, including elements that correspond to pop up controls, receiving a selection of one of the one or more display elements, determining whether the selected element corresponds to a pop up control, and displaying the selected element in a highlighted format upon receiving the selection if the element corresponds to a pop up control, and displaying a pop up control after displaying the element in a highlighted format if the selection persists for a long press period.
