Patent ID: 8418225

Claim:
A computer-implemented method, comprising: receiving, at a computing device that is in a locked state, one or more user inputs to unlock the computing device and to execute at least one command that is different from a command for unlocking the computing device; executing, in response to the one or more user inputs to unlock the computing device, an unlocking operation by the computing device to convert the computing device from the locked state to an unlocked state; executing the at least one command in response to receiving the one or more user inputs to execute the at least one command; wherein the at least one command executes so that results of executing the at least one command are first displayed on the computing device to a user automatically after the computing device changes from the locked state to the unlocked state, wherein executing the at least one command comprises sending a network request to a server system that is remote from the computing device so as to accelerate availability of content from the server system as soon as the computing device enters the unlocked state; storing results from the server system without displaying the results while the computing device is locked; and displaying the stored results in response to the computing device entering the unlocked state.
