1. A system, comprising:
- an accepter module configured to accept a mobile device location query using digital signal processing, including at least;
an elapsed time accepter module configured to accept an indication of a predetermined elapsed time that causes the mobile device to indicate a location; and
a partial hibernation mode module configured to accept an indication to enter the mobile device into a partial hibernation mode at least partially based on at least one indication of the elapsed time accepter module, the partial hibernation mode module configured to at least;
receive at least one indication of the mobile device not having been moved for a predetermined duration at least partially based on the elapsed time acceptor module; and
power down, at least partially based on at least one received indication of the mobile device not having been moved for a predetermined duration, one or more portions of the mobile phone, the one or more portions of the mobile phone not related to accepting a mobile device location query or presenting an indication of location of the mobile device; and
a presenter module configured to present an indication of location of the mobile device at least partially based on receiving the mobile device location query.

22. A system, comprising:
-
an accepter module configured to accept a mobile device location query using digital signal processing, including at least; an elapsed time accepter module configured to accept an indication of a predetermined elapsed time that causes the mobile device to indicate a location, the elapsed time accepter module configured to at least; detect, using at least one accelerometer of the mobile device, at least some movement of the mobile device; and determine a period, using at least one timer of the mobile device, during which the mobile device has not been moved at least partially based on at least one indication of the at least one accelerometer; and a partial hibernation mode module configured to accept an indication to enter the mobile device into a partial hibernation mode at least partially based on at least one indication of the elapsed time accepter module; and a presenter module configured to present an indication of location of the mobile device at least partially based on receiving the mobile device location query. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28, 29)
