Abstract
Devices, systems and methods are disclosed for quickly readying a device when charging a dead battery. For example, a device may enter a hibernation mode when the battery becomes critically low and may resume normal operation from the hibernation mode when an external power source is connected to the device. While the battery is critically low but the device is connected to the external power source, the device may generate a visible indication, such as a watermark, and apply the watermark to content to allow a user to control the device while indicating to the user that the battery is critically low and should not be removed from the external power source. Thus, the device may reduce user-perceived latency from when the external power source is connected to when the device resumes system interactivity (e.g., being responsive to user input).
