Hi guys today I made a video about Galaxy s8 launcher for all android devices.
I know that the s6 supports the original s8 launcher but that one is laggy like hell on the s6.
this is not the original launcher of course but its almost 1:1 the same and it does not lag in any way.

1) download the zip file in the description box of the video and extract it
2) install all apks in there
3) move all other folders to the first path of your phone ("emulated/0")
4) press homebutton and select nova launcher
5) go to nova settings and apply the dreamux icons which the files already include
6) then go to the backup restore option in the nova settings and selet the first file and wait until it is applied
7) press on the unfinished wheather widget and add your city
8) after that add s8 googl search bar using zooper widget (explained in the video)
Thread cleaned up.
@[OP] please change the title to something appropriate.
It is Nova launcher themed to look like Stock.
Thanks!

i recently changed from Go launcher EX to Launcher 7
but it's feels so different so i have a few questions with this launcher
1.how do you add apps to the screen properly? the apps icon looks very blur and ugly when i pinned it directly ...is there a way for me to make the icons look better? i heard there is an app called desktop visualiser but i dunno how it works ...
2.Widgets ..is adding widgets to the homescreen possible? i tried before but it dont work and looks odd ..am i doing it wrong?
3. is there a way to add folders to this launcher?
4.where can i have more bitmaps?

-Rooted with link2sd
Press and hold tile on home screen, now you can edit it and change icon. There is tons of wp icons on xda.

From the home screen press Menu. You will have an option to add a widget tile from that menu.

No icon pack. Manually for each tile (shortcut) you want to make. There are 1 or 2 main threads about Launcher 7 in xda. Just Google and they will show up. Many icons there.
PS: Launcher 7 is awesome, if you like/love Windows Phone 7 look of course. I don't see the day when I'm back to the typical kind of launchers like stock, ADW, LauncherPro (which I loved for long time) or whatever.
I flushed AOSB on my SC03E and it's really beautiful, but after installing GAPPS, I got the launcher name changed to google, got camera icon changed to a very ugly one and the dial screen may have been changed.
So is there a way to recover to AOSB default icons and launchers?

probably when installing the gapps you have chosen google launcher as your standard launcher or it did so automatically. what you need to do is change the standard launcher to the one when you didnt had installed the gapps yet, that should bring back the UI look you want. you can of course also download some other launcher like nova or apex etc. and use that as standard launcher, with these launchers you can also install other icon packs and change the icons to whatever you like

Wow I thought I had replied this thread the day before yesterday but I can't find it now.
Thanks so much for your detailed reply @MaHo_66
All the problems were caused by the not property(sorry for my bad English..) GAPPS package.
If I don't want google camera or google launcher, GAPPS minimal or core or min is the best choice.
While disabling google launcher, I removed google search and the google launcher was gone.... so I got no launcher except a very old bad one which I installed just for fun. So I re-flush the device and install GAPPS min.
Everything goes well except for some mic volume problems.
I'll post another thread about that.
Well, the text above was to post yesterday... I made some change and hope it will not confuse you.
Just wondering if any of you switched over to Nova or if your sticking to the stock launcher.
Ive noticed some lag with stock but I enjoy the widgets touch wiz offers.
Stock or aftermarket launcher?
I'm currently using aviate by yahoo and I like it a lot especially with the transparent setting
I pretty much switched to Nova Launcher right away. Didn't even bother playing around with the Touchwiz launcher
Nova, latest beta. Looking good.
I'm using TW with no issues at all.
nova all the time.
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Free mobile app
As soon as I got all my apps installed, switched to Google Experience.
This is clearly a question - it belongs in Q&A, moved. Please post in the correct sections.
Thanks.

That's the Google Now Launcher? I use a lot of different lauchers in my Note2 but Go Launcher is the one I have the most setup due to the extensive customizability-gestures-3D effects but it wasn't as impressive when I quickly installed in on a Note4 in Best Buy perhaps because I hadn't customized it yet but I also like the Google Now Launcher & Nova & Themer.
I generally immediately get rid of TW but it wasn't as bad in the Note4 but still not ultra smooth or interesting as the other lauchers. I really like the ability to change launchers which is another reason Android is & the next time I play with a Note4 I'll go through more launchers as it could definitely look cooler & be more functional.:good:
I switched to Nova Launcher beta instantly. TouchWiz isn't bad, but I can't stand the grid spacing as I like to keep a few widgets and apps on my main home screen.
I've already switched to Nova, phone should be here Friday. ??

Agree grid of icons gets old fast like lame iOS & I also try to keep icons to a minimum (Go Launcher lets you program 5 base hideable icons to launch additional apps with gestures like swipe up as well as scroll swipe across to another 5 icons & another 5 icons (5x3=15 x 2 including the programmable gestures upon a long press menu = 30 apps-shortcuts-functions) & I use a lot of widgets so I don't even have to click icons to access some data. I don't think non-Prime Nova lets you customize as much as Go Launcher but there are more & more cool launchers being developed & still setting up other launchers I previously mentioned.
Switched to Nova pretty much immediately. As mentioned above I can't stand the spacing between icons. Also I need gesture support, especially with such a large phone. Why that still hasn't been built into the touchwiz launcher I'll never know.
First thing I did was install the ADW launcher. I've been a fan for a long time.
So I updated my Xperia Z3+ today and noticed that the home screen does not rotate any more.
I looked in the home screen settings, but there is no such option, like it used to be on 5.0.1.
Am I just not seeing this option, or has Sony removed this feature?
No answer I see. I unfortunately found the same thing, and it really annoys me. I had to move to use Nova launcher so I could get it back, but unfortunately I don't find nova as good as the inbuilt one. The widget handling of nova on the xperia is terrible, and the standard app tray is not as good as the xperia one. I keep hoping there will be an update that fixes it.
I guess it is that sony sadly stopped implementing mag charging and docks for the z5 and later so just don't care. And honestly I can not understand why they stopped that. It is fantastic using your phone as a bedside clock / photo frame on a dock. If I lost my current XPeria, I'd probably just buy the same model again, not get one of the later ones. Or find a different brand that did support horizontal dock/charge.
EDIT: It looks like they have released a beta of it with it fixed, but apparently buggy:

Mobe @ haha very funny... Why you said Nova is not better than Stock launcher? I think you doesn't know the true features of nova or you don't know how to customize it.

Then click the tick sign, it will clone and then install it.

APP CLONER basically clones the app so that apps which are compatible with your system but can't be installed, work fine.
If you're not interested in app CLONER, normal install the other launcher from link and use.

**SHORTCUT-- FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T WANT TO INSTALL MORE THAN 3-4 APKS **
Install the 5 files from links- launcher, theme file, goodlock ,substratum with left clock- that will be enough for giving the ONE UI look(you will get the EXACT look given in first post screenshots, leaving aside the native Samsung pie apps)
You can even leave the substratum and left clock if you don't need left clock- that will reduce it to JUST 3 APKS to install
The other weather, dialer etc are pie apps and you don't necessarily need them- just that if you need entirely pie apps running on your Oreo Device with the pie experience.*
This will take very few minutes and done!- you have the one ui look!

I did the same thing a couple of weeks ago, but i just cant manage to get the rounded notifications on the status bar drawer like yours. mine just scramble with some ****ty background colour, especially when i have a white app behind it.
Try uninstalling the themes and reinstalling
Faced the same problem and did it ,got resolved.
New One UI browser apk
Samsung One UI browser
Install as normal apk
www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-elect...ernet-browser-9-0-01-18-android-apk-download/
Notes One UI APK
www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-elect...otes-3-0-00-69-android-apk-download/download/
The alternative is to use The theme v3 day, then use Swift installer, change apps to black amoled, and the rest of the tweaks in Swift installer too- like use material theme and even transparency of the pull down notif.
Will try that. ?
Never tried the swift installer
New One UI gestures apk

The browser also has modes to hide status bar which actually helps us use the entire screen for browsing?

Yes. It's just that the whole idea of one uinis to move important elements to he button. And I don't know but I think the address bar is very important and almost out of reach even for my big hands.
I can't get notifications on this launcher
