The Note 2 has a silent mode exception feature. There is probably a specific name for this feature but I do not know the name. Basically, this feature allows the user to set specific people that can call/text with sound, while everyone else is kept silent. I am not sure if this is an android feature or something that is exclusive to Samsung. Does anyone know? Thanks.

Do you mean the Blocking Mode feature? Under Settings/Device...

I think you are referring to Blocking Mode. Blocking Mode is a Samsung inclusion into the software (although, last time I checked, stock does allow for notifications to be disabled). One thing- Blocking mode doesn't change volume settings.

Yes that is what I am referring to. Thank you both.
