The portable electronic device includes a display; a communication interface configured to communicate with a wearable device using wireless short-range communication; a processor; and a memory storing instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the portable electronic device to establish, via the communication interface, a connection between the portable electronic device and the wearable device, identify a security status of the connected wearable device, limit access to at least one predefined setting item among a plurality of setting items and control the display to display an indication of the identified security status if the identified security status corresponds to a lock status, wherein the at least one predefined setting item relates to a passcode, and allow access to the at least one predefined setting item if the identified security status corresponds to an unlock status.

Method for controlling security system and electronic device thereof

A portable electronic device, a wearable device and methods for operating the same are provided. The portable electronic device includes a display, a communication interface that communicates with a wearable device using wireless short-range communication, and a processor that provides, via the display, a menu for controlling data of the wearable device, receives, via the communication interface, a security status from the wearable device, limits access to at least one item in the menu if the security status corresponds to a first security state, and allows access to the at least one item in the menu if the security status corresponds to a second security state.

Disclosed is an electronic device including a battery, a display, a processor electrically connected with the battery and the display, and a memory which is electrically connected with the processor and stores at least one application, wherein the memory stores instructions which, when executed, cause the processor to monitor power consumption of the at least one application during execution of the at least one application in an off state of the display, and to display, on the display, information indicating whether a value of the power consumption exceeds a threshold selected during a selected time, based on at least a part of a result of the monitoring immediately after the display enters an on state.

Electronic device and method for managing power in electronic device

A method and an apparatus for generating a split screen image in an electronic device. The method for generating the image includes capturing an image, displaying the captured image on a display, changing one or more of a location, a size, and a shape of the captured image displayed on the display, and displaying a second image outside a region displaying the captured image on the display.

Method for generating split screen image and electronic device thereof

In one embodiment, the semiconductor device includes at least one active fin protruding from a substrate, a first gate electrode crossing the active fin, and a first impurity region formed on the active fin at a first side of the first gate electrode. At least a portion of the first impurity region is formed in a first epitaxial layer portion on the active fin. A second impurity region is formed on the active fin at a second side of the first gate electrode. The second impurity region has at least a portion not formed in an epitaxial layer.

Semiconductor device and method for fabricating the same

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes an output module, a sensing module, and a processor. The output module is configured to output contents. The sensing module is configured to obtain at least one of user information and environment information. The processor is configured to control an operation of the electronic device in response to at least one of the user information and the environment information depending on an attribute of the contents.

Method for displaying contents and electronic device thereof

Methods and apparatuses are provided that is performed by an electronic device. A display screen provides a first user interface to receive a first user input and to display user inputted content including a first representation of the first user input. An instruction to provide a second user interface is received. The display screen provides the second user interface together with the first user interface in response to the received instruction. A portion of the user inputted content is displayable in the second user interface in an enlarged size. A second user input is received via the second user interface. In response to the second user input, a second representation of the second user input is displayed in the second user interface. The user inputted content displayed in the first user interface is updated by adding the second representation in a displayed size smaller than a size used for displaying the second representation in the second user interface.

Method and apparatus for changing font size of message in a mobile communication terminal

A first electronic device, a second electronic device and methods for operating the same are provided. The method of the first electronic device includes obtaining wearing status information of a second electronic device which is wearable, and determining a security environment of the first electronic device based on the wearing status information. The method of the second electronic device includes detecting a wearing status of the second electronic device, confirming at least once of a security level and a user profile corresponding to the wearing status, and sending information of the security level or the user profile to a first electronic device.

Semiconductor device including an extended impurity region

A cell reselection method and mobile communication terminal using the method are disclosed. The method includes calculating first path loss parameters of a serving cell and neighboring cells; determining whether the serving cell is suitable for a communication service using the first path loss parameter thereof; performing, if the serving cell is determined to be unsuitable, a cell reselection operation; calculating, if no suitable cell is found through the cell reselection operation, a second path loss parameter of the serving cell using information on the distance from a base station of the serving cell to the mobile communication terminal; redetermining whether the serving cell is suitable using the second path loss parameter thereof; and setting an operation mode of the mobile communication terminal on the basis of the redetermination result. As a result, errors in determination of the suitability of the serving cell may be reduced.

Cell reselection method and mobile terminal using the same

A method and an apparatus for enlarging a message in a mobile communication system is provided. Selection of a font size change menu is monitored during message writing or reading. If the font size change menu is selected, a pop-up window or a magnifier window is invoked and a message is enlarged in the pop-up or magnifier window.

Provided are a method and an accessory apparatus for receiving and reproducing DMB data. The DMB accessory apparatus receives DMB data, converts data formats of the received DMB data into multimedia data formats which can be reproduced by a typical mobile terminal, and transmits the DMB data converted into the mobile terminal reproducible data formats to the mobile terminal. Accordingly, even a mobile terminal, which does not have a function of receiving and reproducing DMB data, can reproduce the DMB data.
