1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- during operation of a mobile device in a low-power mode in which functionality of a voice recognition engine of the mobile device is reduced;
receiving, by data processing hardware of the mobile device, an utterance;
detecting, by the data processing hardware, an initial portion of a predetermined command phrase in the utterance while a display of the mobile device is turned off, the predetermined command phrase comprising a series of multiple words configured to cause the mobile device to wake-up from the low-power mode in response to detecting each word of the series of multiple words in the utterance; and
in response to detecting the initial portion of the predetermined command phrase in the utterance;
determining, by the data processing hardware, whether a remaining portion of the predetermined command phrase is detected in the utterance within a first predetermined period of time after detecting the initial portion of the predetermined command phrase in the utterance;
turning on, by the data processing hardware, the display of the mobile device; and
displaying, by the data processing hardware for output on the display, a reminder message that comprises the series of multiple words of the predetermined command phrase.

Abstract
A method include placing a first processor in a sleep operating mode and running a second processor that is operative to wake the first processor from the sleep operating mode in response to a speech command phrase. The method includes identifying, by the second processor, a speech command phrase segment and performing a control operation in response to detecting the segment in detected speech. The control operation is performed while the first processor is maintained in the sleep operating mode.
