Abstract

An operation method and a mobile terminal connected to an electronic device. The operation method includes receiving, from the electronic device, an extracted piece of content and a command of a function of the mobile terminal that will execute the extracted piece of content; and executing the function according to the command using the extracted piece of content, wherein the extracted piece of content is displayed on a portion of a display of the electronic device, corresponding to a user selection, from among multiple pieces of content displayed on the display.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An operation method of a mobile terminal connected to an electronic device, the operation method comprising:
receiving, from the electronic device, an extracted piece of content and a command of a function of the mobile terminal that will execute the extracted piece of content; and
executing the function according to the command using the extracted piece of content,
wherein the extracted piece of content is displayed on a portion of a display of the electronic device, corresponding to a user selection, from among multiple pieces of content displayed on the display.

2. The operation method of claim 1 , further comprises:
receiving, from the electronic device, the command of the function, and additional information of the function, and
executing the function according to the command using the extracted piece of content and the additional information of the function.

3. The operation method of claim 2 , further comprises:
if a phone event and an application command occurred, transmitting the phone event and the application command to the electronic device.

4. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein executing the function comprises:
executing the function in response to an input from a user of the mobile terminal in interaction with a phone service application of the electronic device.

5. The operation method of claim 1 , further comprising:
sensing initial connection with the electronic device; and
synchronizing address book information stored in the mobile terminal with address book information stored in the electronic device during the initial connection.

6. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein if the extracted piece of content is a phone number, automatically receiving, from the electronic device, a call send command by a call sender application and the phone number.

7. The operation method of claim 2 , wherein if the extracted piece of content is text and the command of the function is Short Message Service (SMS) sending, sending a short message including the extracted piece of content to a recipient phone number included in the additional information of the function.

8. The operation method of claim 1 , further comprises:
storing an image file if the extracted piece of content is the image file and the command of the function is memo writing.

9. A mobile terminal connected to an electronic device, the mobile terminal comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor electrically connected with the display,
wherein the processor is configured to:
control the transceiver to receive, from the electronic device, an extracted piece of content and a command of a function of the mobile terminal that will execute the extracted piece of content, and
execute the function according to the command using the extracted piece of content, and
wherein the extracted piece of content is displayed on a portion of a display of the electronic device, corresponding to a user selection, from among multiple pieces of content displayed on the display.

10. The mobile terminal of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
control the transceiver to receive, from the electronic device, the command of the function, and additional information of the function, and
execute the function according to the command using the extracted piece of content and the additional information of the function.

11. The mobile terminal of claim 10 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
if a phone event and an application command occurred, transmit the phone event and the application command to the electronic device.

12. The mobile terminal of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
execute the function in response to an input from a user of the mobile terminal in interaction with a phone service application of the electronic device.

13. The mobile terminal of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
sense initial connection with the electronic device, and
synchronize address book information stored in the mobile terminal with address book information stored in the electronic device during the initial connection.

14. The mobile terminal of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
if the extracted piece of content is a phone number, automatically receive, from the electronic device, a call send command by a call sender application and the phone number.

15. The mobile terminal of claim 10 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
if the extracted piece of content is text and the command of the function is Short Message Service (SMS) sending, send a short message including the extracted piece of content to a recipient phone number included in the additional information of the function.

16. The mobile terminal of claim 9 , further comprises a memory configured to store an image file if the extracted piece of content is the image file and the command of the function is memo writing.

17. The mobile terminal of claim 9 , wherein the electronic device includes a personal computer, and wherein the mobile terminal capable of carrying by the user is connected to the electronic device via wired or wireless.
