Claim Text:
1. A method of booting a mobile electronic device (MED) with a low-energy battery, comprising: monitoring a level of the low-energy battery while the low-energy battery is charging; determining a dynamic boot threshold battery value based, at least in part, on one or more detected environmental conditions, wherein the dynamic boot threshold battery value comprises at least one of a voltage level, a capacity level, a delivered charge level, or any combination thereof; attempting a boot of the MED at least partially in response to determining that the level is greater than or equal to the dynamic boot threshold battery value; increasing the dynamic boot threshold battery value by a first increment value at least partially in response to determining that the boot is unsuccessful and repeating the monitoring and the attempting based on the increased dynamic boot threshold battery value; and increasing the dynamic boot threshold battery value by at least a second increment value after unsuccessfully attempting the boot subsequent to increasing the dynamic boot threshold battery value by the first increment value, and repeating the monitoring and the attempting based on the increased dynamic boot threshold battery value, wherein a magnitude of the at least a second increment value is less than a magnitude of the first increment value.
