An apparatus and method are provided. The method includes reproducing, by a portable phone, multimedia content via an external output device while the portable phone is coupled with the external output device, determining whether the portable phone is decoupled from the external output device, and terminating the reproducing of the multimedia content based at least in part on a determination that the portable phone is decoupled from the external output device.

A method of forming fine patterns of semiconductor devices is disclosed. The method comprises forming a hard mask layer on an etch target, which includes first and second regions. The hard mask layer may further have first and second preliminary mask patterns formed on the same. Furthermore, a spacer layer may be formed on the first and second preliminary mask patterns. The spacer layer and the first and second preliminary mask patterns may be partially removed to form first and second spacers on sidewalls of the first and second preliminary mask patterns, respectively. The second spacer in the second region may have a top surface higher than a top surface of the first spacer in the first region. The height differences between the spacers allow forming of first and second patterns in the first and second regions, and thereby forming fine patterns of semiconductor devices.

Mobile communication terminals and methods are provided. A mobile communication terminal includes a transceiver, audio processing unit, speaker, connecting unit, display unit, input unit, and control unit. The control unit is configured to control to display, while in a silent mode, a user interface for reproduction of a music file, in response to a user input while in the silent mode, control to reproduce the music file and to output audio signals corresponding thereto through the speaker, in response to receiving an incoming call in the silent mode, stop reproduction of a music file, and output an indication of the reception of the incoming call by vibration or without sound according to a setting of the silent mode, and while in the silent mode, control reproduction of a music file depending upon detection of a change of a connection state of an external audio output device.

A mobile communication terminal is provided including an audio processing unit, a speaker, a connecting unit that connects to an external audio output device and indicates whether the external audio output device is connected, and a control unit configured to, while in a silent mode, control the audio processing unit to reproduce a music file and to output audio signals, corresponding to the reproduced music file, through the speaker, the silent mode being a mode wherein a vibration signal is generated upon receiving an incoming call, if the external audio output device is connected to the connecting unit, output the audio signals to the external audio output device, and if the external audio output device is disconnected from the connecting unit while the audio signals are being output to the external audio output device, control the display unit to display a user interface for continuing reproduction of the music file.

A method for reproducing a music file of a mobile communication terminal includes outputting a confirmation message for determining whether a music file is to be reproduced if reproduction of the music file is requested during the manner mode of the mobile communication terminal, and reproducing the music file if an external output device is connected to the mobile communication terminal. Since a user can reproduce music files without any complex key manipulation, even during the manner mode of the mobile communication terminal, the user can listen to desired music easily, thereby improving the convenience of the mobile communication terminal.

The tensioner includes a cylinder inside a large capacity reservoir tank without interference with other components. The tensioner maintains oil inside the cylinder at all times, thereby improving the response of the tensioner when the engine is re-started after a long periods of inactivity. This prevents any fluctuation and wear and tear of a timing chain during engine re-start. Furthermore, the reservoir tank is integrally cast with the cylinder block to reduce manufacturing costs and increasing space-utilization of the engine.
