Abstract
A method of displaying a select image on an Internet enabled mobile comprising a power supply, a memory, a processor and a screen preconfigured by a supplier of the mobile device to assume a dormant mode having a basic display that draws minimal power from the battery, with at most a basic display in a small part of the screen; the method comprising the steps of: (i) reprogramming the mobile device to display an image instead of the basic display while mobile device is otherwise dormant, by overriding the dormant screen mode, (ii) downloading a select image to a memory of the mobile device from an Internet source; (iii) displaying the select image on the screen instead of the basic display of the minimal power dormant mode, wherein the basic display is replaced by an enhanced display requiring more power than the basic display of the dormant mode.

- the method comprising the steps of;
(i) reprogramming the mobile device to display an enhanced display instead of the basic display by overriding the dormant screen mode;
(ii) downloading a select image to a memory of the mobile device from an Internet source;
(iii) displaying the enhanced display comprising the select image on the screen instead of the basic visual display of the minimal power dormant mode, wherein the displaying of the enhanced visual display requires more power than the minimal power required for the dormant mode. - View Dependent Claims (37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 50)
- the method comprising the steps of;
- 48. A mobile device comprising a battery, a processor, a memory and a screen, the interne enabled mobile device having a dormant state for conserving power drawn from the battery such that when in the dormant state a basic visual display requiring minimal power is displayed on the screen, wherein said mobile device is reprogrammed to display features on the screen in the dormant state by drawing more power than the minimal power required by the basic visual display of the dormant state as programmed by the manufacturer.
- 52. A mobile device comprising a battery, a processor, a memory and a screen, the mobile device comprising a reprogrammed dormant state such that when dormant, the screen draws more power from the battery than the minimal power supplied to the screen for displaying the dormant display in the configuration supplied by the supplier.
