INTEGRATED HANDSET BROWSER SETTINGS
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- maintaining user settings and application context information in a first computing environment in relation to a first client-server application running on a first operating system of the first computing environment, the first computing environment configured to run the first operating system and a second operating system concurrently on a shared kernel;
displaying a first user interaction environment of the first client-server application via the first computing environment according to the user settings and the application context information, the first user interaction environment reflecting a current interaction state;
detecting a docking event indicating that the mobile computing environment is docked with a desktop computing environment; and
applying, by a second client-server application running in the second operating system, the application context information to present a second user interaction environment via the second client-server application on a display of a second computing environment associated with the second operating system that substantially reflects the current interaction state.

Abstract
A mobile computing device with a mobile operating system and desktop operating system running concurrently and independently on a shared kernel without virtualization. The mobile operating system provides a user experience for the mobile computing device that suits the mobile environment. The desktop operating system provides a full desktop user experience when the mobile computing device is docked to a second user environment. A seamless cross-environment workflow is provided in a multi-operating system computing environment. Two or more application programs, running in independent operating systems, share user interaction state information including user data, user settings, and/or application context information. Interaction state information may be shared for applications that are used primarily to access and edit local user content as well as applications that communicate to a remote server or access and navigate other remote content (i.e., Internet-based application, browser).

13. A computing device including a computer-readable medium storing instructions for a physical processor, the instructions, when executed, causing the processor to perform steps comprising:
-
maintaining user settings and application context information in a first computing environment in relation to a first client-server application running on a first operating system of the first computing environment, the first computing environment configured to run the first operating system and a second operating system concurrently on a shared kernel; displaying a first user interaction environment of the first client-server application via the first computing environment according to the user settings and the application context information, the first user interaction environment reflecting a current interaction state; detecting a docking event indicating that the mobile computing environment is docked with a desktop computing environment; and applying, by a second client-server application running in the second operating system, the application context information to present a second user interaction environment via the second client-server application on a display of a second computing environment associated with the second operating system that substantially reflects the current interaction state. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
