It seems like it is just a app switcher or am in using it wrong and you can have two apps on the screen at once

You can have 2 apps on the screen at once. It's activated by holding down the back button until a bar on the left appears. Then you drag the icon on the left bar on the screen and another icon. So you'll be able to interact with 2 apps at the same time.

I was just thinking of this issue today.
Constantly having the same problem too...
Same thing with the Home button while its in my pocket...
I disabled my menu and back buttons completely and enabled the on screen navigation buttons. Only problems I've noticed are the stock camera app and call log don't adjust well still usable though.

I've noticed for some reason when I open my camera for the 2nd, 3rd or whatever time, the notification bar briefly switches to landscape mode. This does not happen if I clear all recent apps then launch the camera. But then when I launch it again the notification bar briefly appears. Does anyone else get this? I'm using nova launcher.

I just noticed it only happens when I use the home button. If I use the back button then open the camera app it doesn't do it. So for example, open your camera, hit the home button, then hit the camera again, does the notification bar briefly appears in landscape mode? If it does try this, open camera, hit back button, open camera again, the notification bar doesn't appear in landscape when I do it like this. It seems like the home button triggers it to happen. I tested it using touch wiz and it does the same thing.

why does it matter if it shows briefly? if the camera still works im not sure i see an issue?
Mine does the same thing, but it's a non issue.

Yeah, they all do that. I just got a new note 2 today and does the same thing.

I have set up Pie Control to be a huge benefit for one handed use of the Note II, putting the hard to reach bottom buttons on the right and left sides of the screen. With this set up, I can hold the phone in either hand and not have to juggle the device around to hit the Menu, Home, Back, and Recent Apps and can also activate Voice Search in Google Now.
Here are my settings:
Autostart TouchService: Enabled
TouchService mode: pie
Set gesture input: 2
Add to pie blacklist: Added my games and other things that I touch the edge of the screen a lot with.
Activation area position: Left and right
Activation area thickness: 25
Longpress time: 1000
Animation time: 50
Pie Item 1: Home
Pie Item 1 long press: RecentApps
Pie item 2: Back
Pie item 2 longpress: RecentApps
Pie item 3: Menu
Pie item 4: SearchLongpress < This will instantly activate voice search or s voice
I'll give er a shot brotha. Thanks for this.

I like pie control. I have button one as home, button two as back, button 3 as recent apps, button four as menu and button 5 as app drawer.
The bad thing is the app drawer is pie controls app drawer so it's really leggy when scrolling through apps. I don't see a way through Pie control setting to change to the system app drawer.
On level two I have a few apps like Tapatalk, browser and messaging app. When you select the apps there is a one or two second delay before the app opens. Not sure why..
i dont understand how to make pie appear and once it does how do i press the buttons

After it's enabled, you have to start it. Once started, you should see the bars on the sides. Try a lighter color wallpaper if you don't see it.

After selecting something, it takes a little bit to start back. Mine seems to work fine unless I activate it quick and then try to use it again immediately afterward. Maybe it's the apps or actions that you are using that could cause the delay. Just a thought.
I have been unable to make this work on my note 2 from sprint plus it forces close. What do I need to do here I have tried everything that was suggested but it still does not work.
Could someone please tell me how to activate this feature on the Note 2? I did it once a long time ago but now I can't remember how to do it. Swiping isn't doing anything.
How do I change the keyboard in TouchWiz GB27 4.1.2?
I already have it checked and enabled in settings.
I tried holding down the space bar, no go.
I tried touching and holding in a textfield, no go.
I'm baffled?
While in a text field look at the notification bar. Pull it down.select the change input method notification and select your new keyboard.
