Csc features Galaxy s7.

Hello friends. I am new in galaxy s7 . But I come from the galaxy s6, and have some experience. I wore Xtrestolite in S6. This ROM had many Csc features. Some of them could bear to S7. But I'm having problems with Smart manager dual screen and AppLock. Someone has AppLock running ?! Can help with this ??? Tnx.

S7 Launcher (5.1 Lollipop)

Hello,
I'm looking for the S7 launcher, which my S7 had before the update on marshmallow.
I did like this more and I hope you can post a link here. That would be great.

The thing is, the S7 never came with Android 5.0 (Lollipop) unless of course you have one of those China Class A copies of the S7

Thanks for this good news. Do you know if the Galaxy S7 will soon get this new interface (with android 7.1.1 for example), or if we have to wait for the android O update ?

You're welcome. I also asked them few days ago will S7 get 7 1.1 Nougat and they told me: "YES. BUT WE ARE NOT SURE WHEN". I hope that they will bring it with 7.1.1. Also they didn't say with what version will S7 get new UI. If I find out I will let you know.

Google is set to release the next iteration of its Android OS Android O on 21 August which is the day of the US total solar eclipse. While we are just a day away from the launch, most of the smartphone manufacturers are now gearing up to provide the new update to their recently launched smartphones. As such, one of the top brands Samsung is also preparing for the update and is looking forward to providing Android O for its smartphones with its Grace UI on top which will be better optimized to run the software smoothly. While the company has been a bit slow in providing updates, hopefully, this time Samsung rolls out the update at a much faster pace.
Looking at Nougat, Samsung got the first updates out to the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge in China and the UK 143 days after Google released Android 7.0. The update took a grand total of 180 days to reach US shores, landing first on T-Mobile, followed by AT&T the day after and Sprint two days after that. Verizon hobbled across the finish line a couple of weeks later. -- What the actual f(*)ck, samsung?!
you might be right, mate!
Good news for s7 users. But android O is really worst than android N reported by some forums due to less root capabilites and different system structure.

Best ROM for Galaxy J7 2016

Hello,
Been reading the ROM forums for the past two days and i can't decide myself on which ROM would fit best my cousin's Galaxy J7 2016 (SM-J710FN) daily driver.
She would love to have dark mode along with Android 9 stock emojis. Edge Lighting Notifications would be a nice bonus too.
Which custom ROM would you guys suggest ? Possibly one running Android 9 and that is kind of stable for the most parts, i understand there is no perfect Pie port.
Thanks a lot for your help. :good:
