Abstract

Provided is a mobile communication terminal including a display unit and an activation button configured to switch from an inactive state, which is an OFF state of the display unit, to an active state, which is an ON state of the display unit, wherein a predetermined operation is performed simultaneously with switching to the active state by pressing the activation button.

Claims (19)

1. A mobile communication terminal comprising:

a display unit;

a memory unit; and

a communication unit, the mobile communication terminal being configured for:

sensing a change from an inactive state of the mobile communication terminal to an active state of the mobile communication terminal, wherein the inactive state is defined that the display unit being turned off while the mobile communication terminal being communicable, wherein the active state is defined that the display unit being turned on while the mobile communication terminal being communicable; and

performing a predetermined operation by an application of the mobile communication terminal, wherein the predetermined operation is performed simultaneously with the change from the inactive state to the active state, wherein the predetermined operation provides user identification function.

2. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 1 , further comprising an activation button,

wherein the mobile communication terminal changes from the inactive state to the active state when the activation button is pressed.

3. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 2 , wherein the activation button internally includes a sub-display unit.

4. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 2 , wherein the predetermined operation differs according to the number of presses or a press time of the activation button.

5. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the user identification function is configured for:

acquiring a user information; and comparing the acquired user information to pre-stored user information, wherein the user information includes at least one of an authentication key information, a password information, a face information, a fingerprint information and an iris information.

6. The mobile communication terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the application is in an operation standby state when the mobile communication terminal is in the inactive state.

7. A method of performing a specific function when a mobile communication terminal is activated, the method comprising: sensing a change from an inactive state of the mobile communication terminal, to an active state of the mobile communication terminal, wherein the inactive state is defined that a display unit being turned off while the mobile communication terminal being communicable, wherein the active state is defined that a display unit being turned on while the mobile communication terminal being communicable; and performing a predetermined operation by an application of the mobile communication terminal, wherein the predetermined operation is performed simultaneously with the change from the inactive state to the active state, wherein the predetermined operation provides user identification function.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the change from the inactive state to the active state is conducted by pressing an activation button.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the predetermined operation differs according to the number of presses or a press time of the activation button.

10. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the user identification function is configured for:

acquiring a user information; and comparing the acquired user information to pre-stored user information, wherein the user information includes at least one of an authentication key information, a password information, a face information, a fingerprint information and an iris information.

11. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the application is in an operation standby state when the mobile communication terminal is in the inactive state.
