Blinking eye? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

Anyone seen the blinking eye at the top of the phone? I'm not quite sure what it is. Ideas? It only pops up from time to time....

its called smart stay. its looking for your face and wont turn the screen off if it detects your face.

I used to wonder what that was on my galaxy s3 and was still wondering what that was on my Note 2..
Swyped by Me & My GN2

It detects if your eyes are looking at the screen...you can disable it under settings > motion > smart stay

Turn off notification LED blink when phone is on

I like having the notification LED blink when my phone is off and an email comes in, but I find it distracting if I am doing something on the phone.
I didn't want to make a standalone app to do this--I don't want to waste system resources running too many utilities at once--so I added code to disable the notification LED blinking when phone is on to Earpiece, since I already use Earpiece. To enable, start Earpiece, press MENU, Settings, and turn on the relevant option. Earpiece is a hodge podge of stuff I use: quieting the camera (not quite to zero, but very quiet, and in all camera apps, not just the stock one), auto speaker phone (speaker phone when phone away from face, earpiece when phone close to face), etc.
No root needed.
How do you get phone to use led notifications at all other than while charging?

I don't think I have any trouble with that. The red light turns off periodically. Or so I remember.
I mean notification does not work at all except showing when charging... That's it

I'm assuming your on a custom Rom that doesn't support it. The notification light can blink while your screen is off to show that you have missed calls/texts/emails etc.

Because it has to be turned on, I'm not actually sure where in stock the setting is dotne I've been on cm9 for so long. Op should know
Edit: actually I remember it being on by default when I first got my phone, so are you sure we have the same phone?

Screen off power button delay

Im being extremely picky but im going to ask anyway. Im comming from the s3. And the note2 blows it away In my opinion. Except for this 1 small thing l, and its bugging the crap out of me. When the screen is off and I press the power button why in the world does it take so long for the screen to come on.......I see no reason for it..phone is blazing fast otherwise. Anyone know of a setting for this? Or experiencing the same thing?

Stuck orientation in landscape

Sometimes when I'm using the phone to watch videos, when I back out for whatever app I'm using the phone will go back to portrait orientation when at the home screen, but when I open another app it goes directly into landscape even when I'm holding the phone in portrait. Is there something that I'm doing wrong? It fixes itself after I restart the phone. Has anyone else ever had this problem?

Well the smart stay senses your face and if it thinks that your looking at the screen it won't change orientation regardless of how it's rotated. I

(Q) Vibrating Issue with phone?

On my phone primarily during youtube the phone vibrates like it's getting a text but there is no text happened 3 times since time of purchase which was Launch day.
Anybody got a clue why or has it happened to you?

Sent from my SM-N900T using xda app-developers app
ummm i'm not sure if you guys are aware but there is a option in the setting that vibrates the phone if you have any new/incoming notifications while the screen is off, that way you dont have to turn the screen on if u dont feel the vibration... but if you do feel a vibration that means you have a new notification, excuse me if you guys were already aware of this future.
I am not getting a notification at all it just vibrates and there is nothing happening at all. No notification at all.

I used to have that problem on my s3... Not as frequent but it would beep too and I think it was an app running in the background. ..

My phone does this as well. I thought it was a feature that I hadn't turned off
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda app-developers app
I'd also like to add that it doesn't have to be vibrating. It only ever vibrated when my phone was in vibrate mode. however if you turn the volume up, it would make a da da sound like a notification.
