Warning and preparatory system for a portable device
The disclosure is directed at a system and method for preparing a device for power loss when the presence of a component cover is not sensed. The system includes a component cover with a detection portion; a sensor adapted to detect the presence of the detection portion in the component cover; and a processor able to receive information from the sensor and to prepare the mobile device for power loss.
1. A warning and preparatory system for a mobile device comprising:
a component cover with a detection portion;
a sensor adapted to detect the detection portion of the component cover a set of sprung pins for establishing a connection between the component cover and system ground; and
a processor able to receive information from the sensor and to prepare the mobile device for power loss.
2. The warning and preparatory system of claim 1 wherein the detection portion is made of magnetized material.
3. The warning and preparatory system of claim 2 wherein the detection portion is a magnet.
4. The warning and preparatory system of claim 1 wherein the detection portion is a speaker.
5. The warning and preparatory system of claim 1 wherein the sensor is a Hall effect sensor.
6. The warning and preparatory system of claim 1 wherein the sensor is a radio frequency identification sensor.
7. The warning and preparatory system of claim 6 wherein the detection portion is a radio frequency identification tag.
8. The warning and preparatory system of claim 1 wherein the detection portion is a logo or brand identifier.
9. The warning and preparatory system of claim 1 wherein the detection portion is the entire component cover.
10. The warning and preparatory system of claim 1 wherein the component cover is for covering a compartment of the mobile device.
11. The warning and preparatory system of claim 10 wherein the compartment is used to house critical device components.
12. The warning and preparatory system of claim 1 wherein the detection portion is a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag.
13. The warning and preparatory system of claim 1 wherein the component cover is for covering a compartment of the mobile device.
14. The warning and preparatory system of claim 13 wherein the compartment is used to house critical device components.
15. The warning and preparatory system of claim 14 wherein the detection portion is a speaker.
16. The warning and preparatory system of claim 14 wherein the component cover is for covering a compartment of the mobile device.
17. The warning and preparatory system of claim 16 wherein the compartment is used to house critical device components.
18. A warning and preparatory system for a mobile device comprising:
a component cover with a detection portion; and
a sensor adapted to detect the detection portion of the component cover;
a processor able to receive information from the sensor and to determine removal of the component cover;
wherein after the processor determines the component cover has been removed, the processor determines active applications executing on the mobile device; saves critical user and system data; and increases a sampling rate of removable objects.
19. The warning and preparatory system of claim 18 wherein the detection portion is made of magnetized material.
20. The warning and preparatory system of claim 19 wherein the detection portion is a magnet.
21. The warning and preparatory system of claim 18 wherein the detection portion is a speaker.
22. A warning and preparatory system for a mobile device comprising:
a component cover with a detection portion;
a sensor adapted to detect the detection portion of the component cover; and
a processor able to receive information from the sensor and to prime the mobile device for power loss wherein after the processor determines the component cover has been removed, the processor determines active applications executing on the mobile device; saves critical user and system data.
23. The warning and preparatory system of claim 14 wherein the detection portion is made of magnetized material.
24. The warning and preparatory system of claim 22 wherein the detection portion is a magnet.
