One is my gmail and the other is Microsoft Exchange Services for my work email.
I could probably have my gmail loaded into the stock one but I want to keep my two accounts seperate.
I figure this is the best solution until i start figuring out what a good mail app is as i don't really like the stock one that much with the black background and grey text.

Your stock email app has a black background? Mine doesn't have that option, only white background with normal black text. That's odd. If I could, I'd trade email view modes with you as I prefer the black background (I like to think darker backgrounds save power by a little bit :P)
Also, I've heard good things about both enhanced email and maildroid. They're both paid apps, but if they're good quality then it might be worth it. If not, use aptoide haha.
How were you able to get the battery % next to the battery icon in the notifcation area? I like that and don't see an option on the phone to add that finctionality. Your insight would be appreciated.

Ohhhhh I'm so sorry. You know I would've not kept you waiting had I see this. That one previously posted was home screen.
These are home and lock. Also, they're the paid version. There's is lite available.
Went through the video tutorial posted by ColdFustion for the Go Launcher EX home replacement and I really did not like it when all was said and done. I just wasn't impressed - it wasn't as crisp as TouchWiz.

I have both. I don't use the email server for Gmail, I use direct push.

when u sign into your Google account, it sets it up for Gmail emails to push directly to the phone through the Gmail email app. It doesn't connect through the email app.
To search for old emails, you have to go into the email settings and have it sync for the amount of time since that email (e.g. 1 month, 1 year, etc. )

Hey guys, I can't seem to shake that icon that has the Diamond cross hair that relates to the GPS. Even when all services are off it never disappears any ideas?

Here is my most recent. The thing I covered up is my city. Anyway this is using a jelly bean wallpaper with Nova Launcher and I have a minimalist theme going. The calendar and clock widgets are an app called zooper widget.

I just got mine Friday..
I love it, but the camera on my EVO LTE is better for sure.. Other than that is a great Phablet
I'm stock rooted cause I can't see a rom that convinces me just yet, I'll wait until the devs polish them a bit more.
Anyway Here's my first and basic setup:
__________________ Samsung Galaxy Note II Stock and Rooted (No need for more right now) HTC EVO 4G LTE Unlocked S-OFF Running OMJ's HTC ELTE V1.3 Odex
Motorola Photon 4G Running MOF 2.3.5.ish V.1.4 ____________________________ My Profile @ Zedge
The clock is from Zooper Widget Pro, just edited out the calendar to just show the time, moved the placement of the text a little bit to line up nicely with the weather bug widget. The weather comes from weather bug elite.

Thank you for alerting us about Zooper. Just installed it.
Please help me remember....
How do you put widgets on the LOCK screen? I want to use Zooper widgets there.
As far as I know you aren't able to without downloading something like WidgetLocker Lockscreen.
Widgets on the lock screen wasn't introduced until Jelly Bean 4.2 which we don't have on our phones yet so in order To do that you will need a 3rd party app of some kind like the one i mentioned above.
I'm fully embracing the android experience and goi ffg I b. J Ijhh 888cng for a green theme:
Hey, looks nice and clean and stock. How did you do this? What's the Clock? What's the weather? Does the wallpaper come in different colours like purple etc?

The clock and weather is beautiful widgets from the market. It isn't free, but I think it's only 2 bucks. It comes with a skin market, that particular green skin is called "bracketed_Green". I found the wallpaper by googling for Note 2 wallpapers. Don't remember the exact website, but you can't set the wallpaper straight from the browser. Doing so results in a blurry image, you must first save to the gallery, then set as wallpaper. Here is the original image uploaded to photo bucket (may have been resized):

^^ you could probably eliminate the need for the battery widget by enabling battery percentage in the stock notification area. It would make room for another shortcut for you.

Announced at IFA 2012, the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 follows its predecessor with a focus on creativity. The device improves the experience by adding more S-Pen functionality and new-generation specs, not to mention the slightly larger 5.5-inch display... Read More
