newest touchwiz(swipe down anywhere on screen for notification panel) - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods

I noticed that my note 8 out of the box didn't have the latest touchwiz update which has the option in home screen settings to swipe down from anywhere on the screen to pull down the notification panel(before you had to pull down from top of the screen only). helps out a lot with with the large screen!I found the link on sam mobile to update the .apk.
enjoy!

The most recent. Version 6.1.50.1

On a related topic when I go to Samsung calendar --> Settings, I see I am on version 4.2.00.32 with a blue "UPDATE" button under it.
However when I click on it I get a notification "This app is no longer available for purchase or is not supported in this country" !!
Does anyone else get that? (I am on unlocked version)
On the SamMobile site the latest version is 4.2.11.10

There is a newer version on apk mirror, updated 3 days ago, but it doesn't list the Note8 as being compatible? https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...touchwiz-home/touchwiz-home-6-1-55-0-release/

Weird, I have a different version from both of you.

This is awesome, I was wondering why they didn't have a swipe down for notifications. This makes more sense then the finger gesture from the finger print scanner.

But I think I downloaded the apkmirror Snote the other day

I tried installing the TW file from apkmirrior and it would not let me install it. I didn't try anything else from apkmirrior on my note 8. on my s7 edge, I would have to revert back to the march 7.0 update, then install the latest apks in order for me to install them. I read on here that security patches were the culprit. since it didn't work for me my first try on my note 8, I assumed the story was the same. just odd when I download it from sammobile they install without issue on both devices. the latest TW is working perfect on my S7E fully functional

Nice catch! It worked perfect for me
.. On Verizon.

s8+ one mounts avılable

I just tried downloading and installing this newest version from the link. After a reboot, no success.

Certain features are available, like the Smart Select (GIF capture) by installing the latest SmartSelect (Note7 version) apk from apkmirror.

Sorry, I haven't tried any other feature apart from that. The GIF capture was the only feature I was interested in.
Translate does not work as of yet but others might. You can backup the current apk and then install new versions of them to update the features.

Just found a 7.1.1 FW for T355Y on Sam mobile.. unfortunately I'm out of town so will have to wait a few days to install it
Anyone know if I can root the T350 running on Android 7.1.1? Just got the update and hate the new lock screen clock and small icons in the Quicksettings bar.
Wanted to see if I could theme it somehow. Download Mode shows "Secure Download Enabled" though so I'm concerned root won't work

Install TWRP through Odin. And install SuperSU/Magisk via TWRP.
For theming you can try rootless substratum for Samsung devices running nougat.
I can install TWRP even with Secure Download Enabled?

[GAPPS][8.0][ARM/ARM64][DAILY] OPENGAPPS Oreo - Unofficial

As previously mentioned I have copied this thread to Android software development, so more people can learn about it. I have also moved my files and will now be uploading to Android File Host without mirrors, since they is a waste of time, AFH works great.
You can find the new thread here and subscribe to it:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/gapps-opengapps-oreo-unofficial-t3681960
I will not be updating this thread anymore so you won't miss anything. Please also post comments there since I won't be active here that much.
Another new thing is that I will be updating packages every two days, since firstly I don't have that much time available, but mostly because the apps itself don't get updated every day which means you are basically flashing the same apps twice.
That's about it, hope you join us on the other thread

Yup, I know, I use to use other people's versions. But they weren't updated frequently enough. Hopefully they will see my work and start updating theirs too so people can get more out of oreo.

Hey, thanks for your work.
I was wondering, tho, that if I have a previous version of GApps installed (Which I installed while installing the ROM), what is the use of these updates GApps? I can always update my apps through play store?

Yes, that's the best option. But let's say you have installed the pico package and now you want gmail as a system app. You can now dirty flash the micro package which will remove and replace all the installed apps and also install gmail and other apps from the micro package as system apps.

No difference other than that, right?
Like what about the apps that aren't available on the play store? Setup wizard for example? Do they need to be updated?

No, they're pretty much always the same, probably hidden somewhere in the pico package so if there was an update it would be installed anyway. The only other apps not available in the playstore would be Google Camera, Pixel Launcher and Pixel Icons (maybe others too).

I'd say wait a couple of minutes and if that doesn't work reboot into recovery, not system and reflash.

This happens on some roms, it's probably not the gapps's fault. After flashing remove the sim tray. Finish the setup and insert it again. DON'T insert it when it asks you to or it will force close again.
Since you've already flashed just remove the sim tray and reboot again.
Thank u

Android Authority article with single APK: https://www.androidauthority.com/sa...p-876635/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=gplus
The single APK opens the app to an all white page at the moment and it won't let me update it since it's not yet officially supported. I heard that the 9 apks will get it to work, but im too lazy to download so many apks for just one app to work.

4. Now you have them as seperate apps :fingers-crossed:

Yep, got it too finally, it's like you say it. I dont think we will get all the updates that newer models take, A) because of processing power maybe B) because google must sell more newer phones, so if it gives you everything on the older model, you won't buy a new one so soon.
I wish i had the 2 highlight/shadow sliders, would be very handy...
