An electronic device includes a processor electronically connected to a memory and is configured to detect whether the electronic device is on an external electronic device having a cooling function. In response to detecting the electronic device being on the external electronic device, detecting, by the processor determines whether the electronic device is functionally connected to the external electronic device, and if so, the processor monitors a temperature of the electronic device. The processor generates a control command corresponding to the monitored temperature and sends the generated control command to the external electronic device having the cooling function.

Electronic device and method for controlling cooling function of external electronic device

A mobile terminal and a method for a mobile terminal are provided. The mobile terminal includes a display unit, a controller to separate a main screen and a sub screen from video data, the main screen to be displayed on an external display device and the sub screen to be displayed on the display unit, and an interface to wirelessly transmit the main screen to the external display device for display while the sub screen is displayed on the display unit.

Display control apparatus and method in a mobile terminal capable of outputting video data to an external display device

Various embodiments of the present invention relate to a method and a device for controlling the operation of an external device on the basis of various states of an electronic device when the external device having a cooling function is connected in the electronic device. The electronic device according to various embodiments of the present invention comprises: an interface for connection with the external device; and a processer electrically connected to the interface. The processor can detect connection of the external device by means of the interface, determine the state of the electronic device on the basis of at least the detection of the connection with the external device, and transmit a control signal relating to fan operation control of the external device to the external device by means of the interface on the basis of at least the state of the electronic device. Various embodiments are possible.

Method and device for controlling external device in accordance with electronic device state

According to various embodiments an electronic device may include a first housing comprising a hollow portion configured to receive an external electronic device, and a second housing disposed at an angle defined by a portion coupled with at least part of the hollow portion. The second housing may include a first cover facing at least part of the hollow portion and comprising a plurality of first openings, a second cover received in the first cover and comprising a plurality of second openings, and an electric fan motor disposed in a space between the first cover and the second cover, the electric fan motor configured to discharge at least part of intake air from at least some of the first openings to at least some of the second openings.

Electronic device including cooling function and controlling method thereof

Disclosed is a display control apparatus and method in a mobile terminal capable of outputting video data to an external display device, which implements a function of using other services in the mobile terminal, separately from the service provided to the external display device connected with the mobile terminal. To accomplish the above function, the controller determines whether an event occurs or not during displaying video data sent by the mobile terminal on the external display device and upon occurrence of an event, displays a screen for processing the event on the mobile terminal. Thus, a user can enjoy concurrent service by using other services through the mobile terminal while continuing to watch video data currently being displayed on the external display device. In addition, irrespective of the screen of the external display device, information relative to the event is only displayed on the mobile terminal so that a user's privacy can be fully protected.

An apparatus and method for outputting audio in a portable terminal are provided. The apparatus includes a communication module for transmitting/receiving a call connection request and speech signals during a call connection service; an audio processor connected to at least one audio output device, for controlling the output audio data/speech signals through the audio output device, which is a first audio output device, and checking whether another audio output device is connected; and a controller for checking at the audio processor whether there is another audio device, which is a second audio output device, for outputting the speech signals received while outputting the audio data of an application service through the first audio output device, and when there is the second audio output device, for controlling the output of the speech signals through the second audio output device.
