A method is disclosed that alters a communication mode in a mobile communication terminal. The method includes: if the mobile communication terminal receives a connection signal for an external device, determining whether the communication mode is set to a bidirectional mode; if the communication mode is not a bidirectional mode, determining whether the communication mode is set to a unidirectional mode; and if the communication mode is a unidirectional mode, paging with the external device. The mobile communication terminal can reduce its power consumption and thus extends its remaining run time. |
