Weird lock screen after restart - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

So I restarted my phone which isn't rooted but running nova launcher and now the lock screen is different. Its a
Single lil lock at the bottom if I hold it gives me options for email phone twitter and two others with a slide to the right to unlock and to the left for camera. If i get a text it comes up on the left in the middle and I have to hold it down and it does a load bar to open the msg. Can anyone explain to me about this and how i could change the icons like twitter and all.

Kool. Glad we could help.

It changed back to what I was describing after I woke the phone back up

I can restart the phone and it goes back to normal slide lock screen then after a min it goes back to the one I described. I deleted nova launcher to see if that was it and it was not.

Its fine here. Only the mods can move this. But it can go in themes and apps section or general would be OK as well. And welcome

I am using the app right now (thanks to Zanderman). You need to use the app widgit to lock the screen. I use Zeam Launcher so I just dropped into my bottom homescreen apps. There are different animations and sounds you can apply. I actually have grown to like locking the screen from touching the icon rather than the side button. TV old style is the animation I use and sound #4. The app is free. Its called "Sereen Off and Lock".

Here's a screenshot. Its the bottom right icon. You touch that to lock the screen...

i always just set the long press search shortcut. much more convenient than going to your homescreen every time. also, while i started out using screen off and lock i am currently using "screen off utils" it has more functionality. like you can set it to turn your screen off when you plug or unplug from your charger for instance.
That's exacly where I got mine bottom right side! ; ) whats good the god father john corleone! This app is pretty nice Ive had it a couple months ago & always use it thanks to katecca the maker of this app!

Dark grey screen randomly

Been shaving a bit of a bug lately so I thought I would see if I was the only one or not. I'm on the at&t pebble blue version nonrooted and I have double tap for s voice and all motion shortcuts turned off. But one in a while it doesn't feel like I will push any thing and my screen will go to a dark grey almost like the background to s voice but s voice isn't there. touching the screen doesn't do anything and when I push the back button it brings me right back to whatever page I was on before. I've had this happen mostly in the messaging app but also in some games and the xda app so I don't think its too picky.
Any ideas what could be causing this/fixes?

Note 2 problem

For some reason when I detach my s pen, the s pen icon and page buddy aren't showing up. It's making the sound and vibration but no icon or page buddy even though it's turned on. Secondly, does anyone have blocking mode icon in your scrollable settings in your notification bar? I thought mine was there but maybe I'm mistaken.. Anyone know why my s pen/page buddy isn't showing up? For $700 I should not be having this problem.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
there's a setting for that option in the settings menu did you turn it off?
Interesting... I'm running nova launcher.. I switched back to touch wiz and it worked.. Now I'm back to nova and the icon is showing up when I pull it out. So I guess it's a nova launcher problem?

As far as I can tell those are TW home screen options. I use apex and don't have them either. Blocking mode is there on mine also

What the hell? You have blocking mode at your scrollable settings at the top? I thought I did last night, then I used it for the first time and now it just see it in my normal settings..

It should be between mobile data and power saving. What ROM are you on? Are you using the 15 toggle mod?

I don't have the mobile data one either. No rom.. I'm stock with nova launcher prime. I only find mobile data and blocking mode in my full settings. I remember having mobile data on my scrollable settings on my s3 but not on here.. Wtf is going on?

Err0xx is correct. I have Nova Prime and it is disabled as well. In addition a few widgets are removed as well. I like tue calendar app because it shows exchange tasks as well. It was removed when I used Nova. I tried to levrage Novas resize feature. Back to the drawing board.

I know that this is an old thread, but I got here searching for the same problem with the spen icon, also using Nova Launcher, and as there didn't seem to be a solution listed here, I thought I would post what ended up working for me. After a little troubleshooting with Samsung, they recommending hovering over the screen with the spen, and pressing the spen button 4 or 5 times rapidly, which I did, and now it all works perfectly. Can't comment on the toggles, but for at least the spen bit, maybe I can help someone out.
Same here...your phone is fine....I'm on ATT stock UCAMA4 build.....g
for custom launcher (apex, nova, go, and so forth) use an app from market called s-pen helper and it'll set you through for pen stuff and also for headset stuff. good luck...

How do you close out of a multi Window? I cou l do never figure it out.. not getting rid of the tab, but say you have two windows open, how do you exit one?

usually you tap on the window you want to close, and "X" icon to close app will pop up somewhere on the tapped app (along with max & min icon).

I have never seen that "X" icon... I usually just keep pressing back button until it closes =/ or could just maximize one screen you want to hide other.

I generally like the multiwindow, but if I can't get rid of a window.. It's pretty dumb.. Lol. Somehow, I swiped down and got it to disappear but can't do it again..
For me whenever I press on a Window that that I want to maximize, right next to the swap windows should be a maximize Window (below the adjustable bar)

I know how to maximize and swap. I just don't know how to exit out of a Window. I know that you can maximize the Windows you don't want, then back up to the previous app but sometimes, it doesn't work. Anyone know how to close a Window in MultiWindow?

Hold down the back button. It will make the side ran disappear. Hold it down again to get it back

Haha I'm aware. That's not what I mean. Like when you're using MultiWindow, so you have two windows on your screen. How do you get rid of one.

Touch the one you want to keep and hit the maximize button.

That's what I was guessing. See if this post helps ... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41822132&postcount=4558 ... and here is link to update the installer http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2072081
Ok here is the solution. There is a small arrow shape in the middle bar. When u tap on the top window the arrow will point on that and vice versa. So which means ur function buttons like (back & menu) will work on that tap. So if u press back button it will close that tap. Thats all. Very simple.
If u didnt find that little arrow then just keep tapping on top and buttom and u will notice the arrow

I tried, but it only closes the app if it's the first page. Like..say you were on the Internet and you went forward to like 3 Web pages, if you press the back, the browser just goes back , ,not cancel the app ):
