Abstract

A method for indicating a jack location, where the method includes detecting an illuminance value of an environment in which a terminal is located, detecting, by the terminal, second information when the terminal determines that the illuminance value is lower than a first predetermined threshold, and displaying, by the terminal, prompt information when the terminal determines that the second information meets a preset condition, where the prompt information is used to indicate a jack location. In this way, a user can easily and accurately find a jack location of a terminal device at a dark night or in a dim place.

Claims (43)

1. A method for indicating jack locations, comprising:

detecting, by a terminal, an illuminance value of an environment in which the terminal is located;

detecting, by the terminal, second information and third information in response to the illuminance value being lower than a first predetermined threshold, wherein the second information comprises sound information, and wherein the third information comprises battery level information;

displaying, by the terminal, first prompt information in response to the second information meeting a first preset condition, wherein the first prompt information displays an indication of a headphone jack location on a display of the terminal; and

displaying, by the terminal, second prompt information in response to the third information meeting a second preset condition, wherein the second prompt information displays an indication of a charging jack location on the display of the terminal.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the indication of the charging jack location is displayed on the display of the terminal when a battery level of the terminal is lower than a second predetermined threshold.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the indication of the headphone jack location is displayed on the terminal when a first application program is running.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the first application program comprises a frequency modulation (FM) application.

5. The method of claim 3 , wherein the first application program comprises a music application.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second information further comprises a call status of the terminal, and wherein displaying the first prompt information comprises:

displaying, by the terminal, the first prompt information when the sound information is greater than a third predetermined threshold and the terminal receives a call instruction;

displaying, by the terminal, the first prompt information when the sound information is greater than the third predetermined threshold and the terminal receives a dial instruction from a user; and

displaying, by the terminal, the first prompt information when the sound information is greater than the third predetermined threshold and the terminal is in a call.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the terminal is configured to simultaneously display both the indication of the headphone jack location and the indication of the charging jack location on the display of the terminal at a same time.

8. A terminal, comprising:

a memory comprising instructions; and

a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the instructions cause the processor to be configured to:

detect an illuminance value of an environment in which the terminal is located;

determine whether the illuminance value is lower than a first predetermined threshold;

detect second information and third information in response to the illuminance value being lower than the first predetermined threshold, wherein the second information comprises sound information, and wherein the third information comprises battery level information;

determine whether the second information meets a first preset condition and whether the third information meets a second preset condition;

display first prompt information in response to the second information meeting the first preset condition, wherein the first prompt information displays an indication of a headphone jack location on a display of the terminal; and

display second prompt information in response to the third information meeting the second preset condition, wherein the second prompt information displays an indication of a charging jack location on the display of the terminal.

9. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the processor is configured to display the second prompt information comprises the processor being configured to display the second prompt information when a battery level of the terminal is lower than a second predetermined threshold.

10. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the processor is configured to display the first prompt information comprises the processor being configured to display the first prompt information when a first application program is running.

11. The terminal of claim 10 , wherein the first application program comprises a frequency modulation (FM) application.

12. The terminal of claim 10 , wherein the first application program comprises a music application.

13. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the processor is further configured to simultaneously display both the indication of the headphone jack location and the indication of the charging jack location on the display of the terminal at a same time.

14. A terminal, comprising:

a sensor configured to detect an illuminance value of an environment in which the terminal is located;

a processor coupled to the sensor and configured to:

determine whether the illuminance value is lower than a first predetermined threshold;

detect second information and third information in response to the illuminance value being lower than the first predetermined threshold, wherein the second information comprises sound information, and wherein the third information comprises battery level information;

determine whether the second information meets a first preset condition of the terminal and whether the third information meets a second preset condition of the terminal;

send a first prompt instruction to a screen display when the second information meets the first preset condition, wherein the first prompt instruction instructs the screen display to display first prompt information, and wherein the first prompt information displays an indication of a headphone jack location on the screen display of the terminal; and

send a second prompt instruction to the screen display when the third information meets the second preset condition, wherein the second prompt instruction instructs the screen display to display second prompt information, and wherein the second prompt information displays in indication of a charging jack location on the screen display of the terminal.

15. The terminal of claim 14 , wherein the processor is further configured to send the second prompt instruction to the screen display when the battery level of the terminal is lower than a second predetermined threshold.

16. The terminal of claim 14 , wherein the processor is further configured to send the first prompt instruction to the screen display when a first application program of the terminal is running.

17. The terminal of claim 14 , wherein the second information comprises a noise value of the environment in which the terminal is located and a call status of the terminal, and wherein the processor is further configured to:

send the first prompt instruction to the screen display when the noise value of the environment in which the terminal is located is greater than a third predetermined threshold and the terminal receives a call instruction;

send the first prompt instruction to the screen display when the noise value of the environment in which the terminal is located is greater than the third predetermined threshold and the terminal receives a dial instruction from a user; and

send the first prompt instruction to the screen display when the noise value of the environment in which the terminal is located is greater than the third predetermined threshold and the terminal is in a call.

18. The terminal of claim 14 , wherein the processor is further configured to simultaneously display both the indication of the headphone jack location and the indication of the charging jack location on the screen display of the terminal at a same time.
