Electronic device and method for sharing image

A method of a first device and an electronic device are provided. The method includes receiving a request signal related to contents stored in the first device from a second device communicatively coupled to the first device; transmitting the contents to the second device in response to the request signal, wherein the contents are security applied contents; and releasing the security of the contents by authenticating a user related to the contents.

Method and apparatus for sharing content between electronic devices

A method of operating an electronic device and an electronic device are provided. The method includes generating biometric information using at least one sensor of the electronic device, and storing the generated biometric information in a memory of the electronic device, generating access right information relating to the biometric information, determining whether an external electronic device is connected to the electronic device, and when the external electronic device is connected to the electronic device, transmitting the generated access right information to the external electronic device.

Method of providing information security and electronic device thereof

An electronic device comprising: a memory; and at least one processor operatively coupled to the memory, the processor being configured to: acquire a first and a second image, identify a first feature in the first image, and a second feature in the second image, generate a first relation information item based on the first feature and the second feature, and generate image data comprising at least a part of the first image or at least a part of the second image, based on the first relation information item.

Method and apparatus for image processing

Provided is a method for forming a Wi-Fi Peer-to-Peer (P2P) group using Wi-Fi Direct. The method includes acquiring device information of other P2P device corresponding to a connection target by P2P devices that will form a Wi-Fi P2P group; checking a type of the other P2P devices based on the acquired device information; adjusting an intent value of a P2P device depending on the checked type of the other P2P devices; and forming a Wi-Fi P2P group based on the adjusted intent values of the P2P devices.

Method and apparatus for forming Wi-Fi P2P group using Wi-Fi direct

A method of operating an electronic device and the electronic device is provided. The method includes setting a fingerprint detecting area functionally connected to a display; identifying a function corresponding to a gesture of an input means input to the display, and determining whether to perform the function with fingerprint information acquired in the fingerprint detecting area. The electronic device includes a display configured to display at least one content; a memory configured to store at least one fingerprint information acquired in a fingerprint detecting area; the fingerprint detecting area functionally connected to the display; and at least one processor configured to set the fingerprint detecting area, identify a function corresponding to a gesture of an input means input to the display, and determine whether to perform the function with the at least one fingerprint information acquired in the fingerprint detecting area.

Method for processing fingerprint and electronic device thereof

An electronic device and method for adapting content based on an ambient environment in the electronic device are provided. The device includes a display interface functionally connecting a content processing module to a display; and the content processing module, wherein the content processing module is configured to receive, from at least one external device external of the electronic device or the at least one external device, ambient color information corresponding for the electronic device or the at least one external device, modify color information for at least a part of first content to be output through the display based on the received ambient color information, and output, based on the modified color information, second content having the modified color information, through the display.

Method for content adaptation based on ambient environment of electronic device and electronic device thereof

A method for operating of an electronic device is provided. The method includes: sensing an input on an input device, detecting one axis direction of a fingerprint input or to be input to a fingerprint sensor, based on the sensed input, determining whether the one axis direction of the fingerprint is consistent with a reference direction of a reference fingerprint, when the one axis direction is not consistent with the reference direction, making the one axis direction consistent with the reference direction, and determining whether the fingerprint is consistent with the reference fingerprint.

Method for identifying fingerprint and electronic device thereof

The present disclosure relates to an electronic apparatus for determining a relay apparatus and a method thereof. An electronic apparatus according to various embodiments includes a communication unit that transmits and receives data. The electronic apparatus also includes a controller that determines whether disconnection between an electronic apparatus operating as a relay apparatus and at least one client apparatus is expected. The control also, if the disconnection is expected, informs the at least one client apparatus of the expected disconnection. The control also determines whether a status of the electronic apparatus satisfies a condition for a change to a new relay apparatus and informs the at least one client apparatus that the electronic apparatus no longer operates as the relay apparatus if the condition for a change to a new relay apparatus is satisfied. The control also determines any one of the at least one client apparatus as the new relay apparatus. The control also informs the at least one client apparatus of the determination on the new relay apparatus. Further, other embodiments are possible.

Electronic apparatus for determining relay apparatus and method thereof

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.
