Portable device and method for controlling the same
First Claim
1. A double-sided foldable device comprising:
- a first display unit and a second display unit configured to display visual information, wherein when the double-side foldable device is in a folded state, the first display unit faces outside and the second display unit faces inside the double-sided foldable device, and wherein when the double-side foldable device is in a flat state, the first display unit faces in an opposite direction of the second display unit; and
a controller configured to;
detect an unlock command for switching a state of the first display unit from a locked state to an active state and switching a state of the second display unit from the locked state to a ready-to-activate state when the double-sided foldable device is in the folded state,switch the state of the first display unit to the active state and the state of the second display unit to the ready-to-activate state when the unlock command is detected,detect an unlock trigger for switching the state of the second display unit from the ready-to-activate state to the active state, andswitch the state of the second display unit to the active state according to the detected unlock trigger,wherein the ready-to-activate state is an intermediate state between the locked state and the active state.

Abstract
A method for controlling a portable device including first and second display units at opposing surfaces of the portable device. The method includes detecting one of a first unlock command for switching a state of the first display unit to an active state and maintaining a state of the second display unit in a locked state or a second unlock command for switching the state of the first display unit to the active state and switching the state of the second display unit to a ready-to-activate state; switching the state of the first display unit to the active state and switching the state of the second display unit to the ready-to-activate state when the second unlock command is detected; detecting an unlock trigger for switching the second display unit, which is in the ready-to-activate state, to the active state; and switching the second display unit, which is in the ready-to-activate state, to the active state according to the detected unlock trigger.
