Hey Guys,
As of today, I have noticed a button which looks like half a ball on my phone... When I click it a list of programs pop out?
I can move it to the top of the screen, the bottom and middle of the screen... But I cannot turn it off?
Do you guys know what it is?
If it's any help, I can say that I am using go launcher...

Lucky son of a gun!!!...
I have my fingers crossed the AT&T version will also have Multi-Window at launch or at least get an update soon after.
What do you mean by multi? i have just tried it... Holding down the back button for 2 seconds, and then opening a program. It just opens up a new program at full screen
Drag an icon to to the top and another to the bottom

I accepted the OTA update this morning, and after all was set and done, the only different thing I noticed was that the home button/screen is not working as it was before the update.
Long press the button and brings the task manager screen that's ok, but if I'm at the main/home or any other screen and double tap the capacitive button nothing happens, before it would show all 7 pages in small size. Is there a way to restore this function?
Try pinching the home sceen.

Thanks for the reply, pinching the screen does make it to show all screens but still the home button doesn't, I don't know if I changed something by accident.

It was not in my 2.3.6. Update as well. Not even in tbe ROM I'm using now,Calkins 2.0.1\ 2.3.6 baseband. I think it may have neen removed.?? But the pinch works still.
Hi sorry if its a silly question. ..but I really can't figure out how to do a screen cap on the phone. I am able to do it using the spen only.
I tried the home and power buttons...didn't work for me?? I dont know why....
Thanks!

Three methods.
S-Pen. Press button and hold pen onto screen.
Buttons. Press power and home at the same time.
Swipe. Place side of palm on edge of screen and swipe to the other side. Sort of wax-on-wax-off type motion. My personal fave for showing off.

I have the same problem. I have a At&t note ii and holding the back key does nothing. Anyone know whats up?
I have a Bell 7150. Long holding the back button does nothing. Long holding the physical button will bring up the Task Manager.
Something do with LJ2 build?
You guys need to wait for your respective firmware update or flash new or custom rom

there is no issue with the latest update. Just go to the mobile settings - select display and the select multi window and the side bar will come automatically
To slove your problem,
go to settings/applications, select the tab all and saerch for com.sec.android.app.FlashBarService
Tab it and choose to Clear data and force stop (don't worry you won't lose anything)
Restart your Galaxy Note 2.
When you're back on your homescreen, long holding your finger on the back key and your multiwindow sidebar will be back again :victory:
I had the same problem in the past.
Help, I have a Galaxy S7, NOT Edge. When I first got it a sidebar appeared and I arranged my items then closed it to open again. Well, now I cannot get it at all, I was holding a few items and pressing my on/off key and it appeared again, now I cannot get it to show up. I have found several YouTube videos on how to turn it off, but nothing to turn it on.
I have tried looking in settings, unless there is a section I am missing. I know there is a split screen, that is not whst I am looking to use.
I have held back button, I have held back button and on/off key at same time. I have swiped screen, with screen off or on, nothing.
Would really like to have it back.
Hello, awhile ago, something like a dock suddenly showed up on the screen, I could drag it to the side or to the bottom. I took my Note 2 to a store to ask the Sales to remove the dock-like thing. It appeared again suddenly (see the vertical dock-like item on the left of the screen) . What is it? How can I get rid of it? Thanks.

It's part of the Samsung TouchWiz software.
Just press and hold the back button (next to the home button) and it will disappear. If you want it back, hold the back button again.
Got it. Thank you very much.
In the quick settings panel there is a multi window toggle. You can switch it on and off there so it won't keep coming on

Hi HTC fellows,
I have bought htc 10 three days back. Initially there was no issue with the phone. However, after an update of around 300mb came, the phone started behaving abnormal.
When i try to drag the app notification bar down, it doesnt respond , instead the home screen either moves left or right.
Sometimes the camera button stucks and doesnt capture photo.
Sometimes the keypad behaves abnormal.
In short, the touch is not responding right.
Please help me guyz.

htc touch screen definitely responds differently than my moto maxx did.
sometimes, close is "good enough", and the screen responds with very-close-but-no-contact touches.
also, the edges are very sensitive. sometimes i hold the phone in a manner that hinders desired response.
i have intermittent text input problems, but im not 100% sure its related to touch.
i've had to retrain myself on this device. i would love a way to trim the sensitivity.

Yeah, I want to lower sensitivity a little bit. And tune the double tap too.
