Every once in a while, I see a tiny steering wheel pop up in the upper left
of the taskbar. At time, it also appears that the dock mode screen will pop up.
I've frozen out the talk apps, voice talk app. Once in a while it will still flash on
the task bar. If you run task manager, there are no talk/voice apps running.
The only thing done to this Note is root. 2.3.6 KL7
Strange...any ideas?
I'll usually shut it down, take out the battery for a few minutes and it's gone.
My phone stays on 24/7, and it usually pops up about a week or two after
booting.

You've not got the driving mode option ticked in text to speech settings have you? (see attached pic)

Nope, here's how it is set up.
If I keep the talk apps frozen, even though they were not running, it appears to stay
fixed. When I flashed just after I got the phone, I probably should have done a clear/reset,
but didn't. It appears a newer rom will be available soon (I prefer the stock roms for now).
When that happens, I'll blow everything out and start fresh, see if it is a glitch in the talk
app, after it was flashed last month.
Stop double tapping the home button
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Not double tapping...just sitting on the desk it might do it.
I just looked at my phone under a bright light, noticed the home button had
a little shine to it. Took an Xacto knife to the edge and guess what....
I didn't realize that had a bit of protective plastic over the #*%$&@ home button.
I just wonder if that plastic was keeping the button depressed at times?

It doesn't. I've got the same problem here. I'm going to remove applications one by one as I'm afraid it's some third party software that's responsible for that icon's disappearance.
Will keep you posted.
Mine keeps disappearing too so to save time I just assigned the voice record button to rotate the screen. Still works even if the icon isnt there.
OK, in my case, the culprit was SPB Diary.
I've just sent a message to SPB Support. I'll also examine the CAB, see if it does anything weird with the registry that might interfere with the icon (who knows ?).
Right ... The CAB doesn't touch anything apart from its own software version key. I went to edit the HKLM/Software/GID/Rotation "Hide" key, but it was already "0" (ie "don't hide").
So I'm afraid this really is a problem caused by SPB Diary. Thankfully SPB Pocket Plus has "rotate left/right" items you can add to your today plugin...
I've had my XDA IIi for over a year and probably had the rotate icon on the screen for 2 weeks in total! For me what software i used wasn't an issue, in fact very occasionally it would return for a few days by it's self before going again!
Unless you find an app to keep it on screen u'll have to live with it...
I was wondering how to set silent mode on my device.

So from the lock screen? I have also tried holding it and it doesn't go to silent, it selects option but doesn't work.
I just hold the vol down button down for a second or two if the phone is not locked . If its locked, I use the slider on the lock screen (I use the AOSP lock screen).
Ummmm there is a button in the pulldown. Second one from the right.
hahaha
There is an free app in the market. Search curvefish and look for "silentmode on off". It adds a widget that toggles from vibrate to silent back to ring again. It's usually one of the first apps I reinstall.
I use CM7 and have 2 profiles, 1 is school and 1 is normal... School will mute EVERYTHING from alarms to any type of notification to media. Normal will make everything medium volume..
Its fairly simple to setup and its incredibly easy to switch.

Has this ever happened to you? It was an accident the first time it happened but, I seem to be able to stack widgets. I start by long pressing on an empty spot on any page, just like you would normally do. Then (have no idea how it happened the first time) before the widget list loads if I quickly flip to the next page where that spot on the screen is already filled, pick my widget, when it loads up, it comes on top of the widget already there. Sometimes it will load behind the one that is there, as was the case the first time it happened, but the next time I rebooted it showed up on top of my calendar. If I move it off of the calendar I can't put it back on, it has to be deleted and stacked in the same manor.
I have to say I really like the feature/bug/whatever. It's a space saver, both widgets are still fully functional and I like the option of being able to save some screen space like in this instance. I can still see my calendar just fine to be honest I don't have a problem with it at all, hope it doesn't go away! I am not really a fan of spreading everything out over 6 or 7 or 12 pages *cough*iphone*cough* and that helps me be able to keep a much better (for me) 3 page set up.
I was mostly curious if anyone else knew about this, and/or maybe if your like me and maybe you'd like to save some real estate it could just be a handy tip!
Every now and then when I wake my phone I see a black lockscreen. The only thing on the screen is the clock. My wallpaper and notifications are not shown. Sometimes tapping the screen will fix it. Other times I have to press the power button to put the phone back to sleep then wake it again.
I can't track down exact steps to repro, it seems to be random.
Has anyone else seen this? Any idea what causes it?

That's normal u can take that off if u want

How do you turn it off?
What's the purpose of it?
Settings, motion gestures , smart alert
Its just a way to show you your missed alerts and conserve battery
Interesting. In the screen shot above I had alerts (notice the green edge notification). If I swiped it right the contact image appears but no message. I also had some unread emails.
Anyway, it's not something I would use so I'll turn it off. Thanks for your help!
thats not from smart alerts. i have mine off and it does the same thing
Lock screen always on and black fix
To fix this problem pull down your extended quick tab list and un check the display always on option. This should fix you right up.
So I was just playing with my phone when the screen was off and I found this feature accidentally. Without pressing any buttons, when I swipe up from bottom middle of the screen, the phone wakes up and goes directly to the Samsung Pay app. I thought it might be reading my fingerprints from home button to wake the device up. So I carefully just touched the screen to swipe up and it still wakes up the phone!!
Does this mean that we have double-tap-to-wake-up the phone feature just like the Motorola phones? I could not find any settings for this but this always works. I am not sure if it has any impacts on battery but i do not have a choice to turn it on or off anyway. I can consistently get this to work. Is these anything that I am missing here?
Note that i have No Screen Lock setup and enabled Samsung Pay.
This is a feature of the Samsung pay app itself. It allows you to pay with your phone very quickly.

Ok, I get that part, but this means that the hardware needs to support it as well to wake the phone just by the swiping the screen. So if the hardware supports it, other apps can leverage this and build similar features too to wake up the phone just like motorol tap to wake. Right?
