I found a thing. On apkmirror I saw that the S8's apps were being extracts. Two of those being the new touchwiz home and Bixby Hello. So here is a guide for it.
1. download Bixby Hello apk and touchwiz home apk. (linked below)
2. Install touchwiz home and Bixby
3. swipe to the left to activate Bixby (where google now cards or flipboard would be)
4. Enjoy both.
5. You may need to clear the Touchwiz Home App Data if it is crashing.
If that doesnt work try, this:
If it isnt showing up there, download this (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.szalkowski.activitylauncher) and click all activites on the top then look for Hello Bixby, after that click on Hello Bixby com.samsung.android.app.spage.main.MainActivity.
Just so everybody knows the voice commands for Bixby do not work. I will keep updating everyone on this as we go along. Enjoy.

Edit: Here is the link to the new weather app. It allows that weather widget from the S8 also. You need both for it to work.

You know where google now launcher google cards would be. Its there. On that page. Bixby there just has some cards and shows Samsung Health. I have to wait to get my S8 for a full Bixby port. But it is there. If it isnt showing up there, download this (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.szalkowski.activitylauncher) and click all activites on the top then look for Hello Bixby, after that click on Hello Bixby com.samsung.android.app.spage.main.MainActivity.
After install...reboot let's it show by swipe.

LOVE the new TW, and Bixby has far more stuff I actually want to see!
I have the soft keys working and disabled all the original keys and lights. It's weird though because they are black all the time. I'm trying to figure out how to get them to change with screen color changes but I'm not having to much luck as of yet. If anyone knows what file to edit or change for the soft keys to change the appropriate colors for black/white pages please let me know, thanks. To get the soft keys to appear and working you need root and you have to edit a build.prop line.
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
On my device the line was already there but it was a 1 and I had to change it to 0 to enable.

You need to be in Nougat.
Why is it not working on s6 with Nougat ?
Quick question has anyone tried thus on the flat t mobile s7 flat?
Also do you just install normally or place them in the right place with a root file explorer at?
Would appreciate the help. Thanks in advance.

Yes I've seen people that have it on the flat S7. You can install it like a normal APK file or what I do is make a folder in /device/system/priv-app then place the APK file in that folder. Then you have to set the permissions of the folder to rwx-r-x-r-x and then set permissions for the apk file in the folder to rw-r-r then reboot. After reboot if it doesn't boot on that launcher go into settings/applications then settings in there then default apps and set the new TW home as default.

Hi Everyone,
if anyone is interested, you can get both aosp google dialer and people app to work on the G3. Here's how:
1. Download the zip
2. extract the files to your phone (sd card)
3. with a root explorer, copy them over to system/
4. set proper permissions (644) on both files
5. copy these files over to system/priv-app/ from system/
6. rename LGContacts.apk to LGContacts.apk.bak (or change the extension of the file to anything)
Blacked out dialer and contacts app - thanks for the findings, @Kameirus
The blacked out Google dialer is made by Thyrus here at XDA
And not sure who did the blacked out contacts/people apk..I found it in one of my phone modding folders
Install instructions are the same as above.

Hope someone figures it out
thats an easy fix..will look into it later on..im still using the same apks from my old n5
Did you guys use the files I provided? Did you rename it? The LGcontacts app to have different extension? It's important because it has the same package name as Google contacts and therefore Google 's contacts app won't show up.
for those who dont know..u need to create a shortcut activity for googlephone by using a launcher like nova..apex..etc

Well, thanks but I didn't need that and checked on stock launcher and they do show up both... Is it possible that it's due to different system languages? U can also try to rename the extension of the LG phone up (dialer), see if that works.

U need a deodexed Google dialer app.
Just install the google dialer with proper permissions and then hide the LG phone app in your drawer. Did this a week ago cause I missed my dialer from running PA on my G2. Also OP is that the 4.4.4 dialer? Cause android police had the older dialer up when I downloaded it. Had to rip the one outta the PA G2 rom I ran on my G2.
Also I am using nova launcher an do not have to create a shortcut. Just put the icon on my home screen and it opens up just fine.
Sent from my LG-D851 using XDA Free mobile app
So does this work? I got the Google dialer installed a few weeks ago but frankly hated it, could never get it to do what I wanted. Long press a contact to edit? No go. Plus all it did was launch the LG dialer in the end. If this fully replaces the LG dialer I Amy give it another try.
Phone shortcut didn't appear in the drawer for me, but I was able to add it to the stock launcher with "Activity Launcher" from the play store.
In the app, All activities -> Google dialer -> Phone (DialtactsActivity)

Yes, and it was a nightmare, took about 20 min. Reboot phone, and with one hand keep hiring the Ok button of the error message and with the other hand try navigating the menus one by one. Go to system /priv-app/.
Find LG phone app, lgteleservice or something like that, click it, install it, then I used room toolbox pro to convert it to user app and set permissions 644. Reboot and got out of loop. And then quickly renamed back the apk.
All the best and good luck.
This worked for me! All works good!!! I had some activities widget already on my F400s and it let me add the dialer.
Looks same as my Nexus 5 now! And finally got rid of the Korean on the stock dialer.
Happy! Thanks to the OP!

You're welcome!
Hey all.. I don't think I've seen a post about this so I thought I'd be the first to give you all a heads-up on Samsung's new lock app called Good Lock. It's a fairly new app and I'm sure they'll make improvements. It pretty much changes your lockscreen, notifications tray, and recent tabs. Let me know what you think of the app.
**Apparently some rooted users are having various problems (constant reboot and randomly uninstalls itself), so keep that in mind...
You can download this in the Galaxy App store
Here are some screenshots

Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk
I downloaded this today, and so far I like it! I wasn't sure at first, but the more that I use it, the more I enjoy it.
I like the new notifications menu. Looks a lot like stock Android. Wish u could use a custom lockscreen wallpaper, but besides that, it's pretty cool! I'm surprised that Samsung created something like this.
To answer your question, I'm pretty sure that those icons are from a previous theme. I haven't found any icon customization with this app
I tried the app, but it uninstalled itself after a bit playing around with it. It looked better than the stock lock screen and notification area (although I don't like the colours) and I'd like to keep the app. Is there a way to prevent that the app is automatically uninstalled?
In Nova Launcher pulling notification bar down is not flawless if you use gesture...
Just a warning that it doesn't work with rooted devices. I made the mistake of installing it on my rooted S7 and it caused constant reboots.
I've also uninstalled in for ithe time being because it didn't work with my Samsung led case. it kept asking for location. I've never had the uninstall problem or reboot problem. you can change the lockscreen by going to Samsung settings. I really hope they polish the app a bit more.
Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk
So far, I'm liking Good Lock. just a couple weird things. Looks like you no longer can customize the quicksettings tiles, and the recent apps switcher is much better, but if you use the button to bring it up and dismiss it (also using the button) then it goes to the Home App instead of the app I was in.

Are you rooted? If not, that explains why the reboot issue would never have happen for you.
Downloading now.
I tried it and uninstalled within minutes. The recent apps is horrible - separate chrome tabs are now nameless icons making it useless to find the tab you wanted, and I like having a preview of the open apps. Also, as mentioned, the MM notification draw pulldown bug in Nova is present, which drives me insane. And no lockscreen wallpaper choices, no thanks. The only reason I'd want to use it is the more stock android look, and that you can finally double tap a notification on the lockscreen to open it, which should be a thing on the current lockscreen anyway.

found a workaround for this, using multipicture live wallpaper from the playstore you can setup multiple images to the be shown on the lock screen however it wont change everytime you start the screen it will change as per time set. Still better than nothing.
For multi wallpaper pls check my thread>https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/themes/root-multiwallpaper-lockscreen-t3638406
We Can find multiple wallpaper in the Samsung theme store. So it's possible !
Maybe only with the theme developper kit...
Any idea ?
If you use Nova Launcher, or anything that can create activities, then you can still use the native Samsung multiple lock screen wallpaper selector app. Find the 'My Interests' app in whatever app you use to see activities, and it has the 'Multiple images' activity for '.ui.KeyguardPhotoSlideMainActivity'. ?
This should work too: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...pchanger&hl=en&rdid=com.shirobakama.wpchanger

I was unable to find "My Interests" but here is how I managed it.
With Nova installed press and hold on a blank icon space to add a widget as normal. Choose Activities from the Nova section.
Find Keyguard Wallpaper Updator and twirl it down and select Multiple Images. This will add an icon to your home screen that will open the hidden multiple wallpaper chooser.

Some app can be access from quick shortcut maker - search (star and task changer).

This is for oreo right ? No N ?
Anyone having luck with the EdgeLightning+ application? I've installed it and I'm trying to setup custom EdgeLightning for notifications. I've set Messages and Snapchat to blue and yellow, respectively, but no matter what notification I receive the EdgeLight is blinking at the default set color - and not the app-specific one.
Nova launcher widgets (activities) work with these apps too, no need to install another app.
My favorite is being able to remove the alarm icon and others from the status bar. Gives the phone a clean look.
Im inexperienced with this app. One thing i like is how the recents cards look unless thats from Nova Launcher.
Would any of you guys mind weighing in like the person above me talked about removing the alarm icon.
What are some of your favorite things to do? Im coming from HTC and not used to what this app can do.
Thank you.
Thank you for this! It took me a minute to see what was new about the edge lighting. All the new features are on the new page to the right. Also I really like the new look of the recent apps. Samsung Good Lock is also just a white page for me, scrolling to the right shows the developers emojis I think, but that's all. What is Good Lock anyways?

Hi, using the new task manager I can't find 2 things.
1) If I'm on the home, for example, and I lanch the task manager , there's no way to lanch an app directly in multiwindow mode, like it is in the default task manager
2) If I'm using an app, for example chrome, and I lanch the task manager in multiwindow mode to select the second app, I can see only the apps already open but I don't have the possibility to search in all apps like it is in the default task manager
Do you have any solution?

Hi
If you're a XDA's regular visitor, you have already known that Samsung released GOOD LOCK app again and this time for OREO only. If not, head over to the XDA feature portal here:
Samsung is bringing back Good Lock, the UI customization app
https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-bringing-back-good-lock/As it is stated in post this release is region specific only. Luckily I've figured out a way by which every Oreo Samsung user can install and use this to modify some system UI tweaks. So let's start.
Download the .zip file from here, extract it and install all apps one by one. Some apps(edge lightning etc) show icons on launcher. Open them and go through them you'll learn how to use them to tweaks SystemUI.
For apps that don't show icons, Download and install Activity Manager app from Play Store.
Now Launch it and search for the apps you installed along with good lock like quickstar, lockstar task changer etc
Upon finding app, just lauch 1st activity and you'll be brought right to that app's setting page.
Modify it as you like and you're done.

Oh wow! This was worth it for the task changer and quick star alone! Makes the phone feel like a new phone. I wish they had added options to change the navbar as well.
Thanks for a great contribution.
Thanks for the files works great!
Hey guys, does somebody know why my clock disappears on lockscreen whenever I use Lockstar? I'm on RenovateICE and every apk is working fine except Lockstar that for some reasons doesn't want to make the clock appear. I tried to check on the RICE settings if there was anything to hide etc but everything is disabled/stock. Any advice?

You can select app by pressing the + button in preview screen
I tried every single possible thing so far that I could come up with, but I got no results. It's a bit sad though, the apk is so great that it would be a shame to lose it!

As I said I can't select any apps
Because there is no plus symbol
And also no clock is shown on the Lockscreen
In the settings you can see the clock
Cool
I was able to install Good Lock through The Galaxy App store. The apps work as they should, no issues.
Thanks !

Im also having the same issue. Whats weird is I also tried the same app I installed to my colleague's S8 and it works fine. Only thing I can think of is the dpi since thats the only thing I changed

I can confirm it's the dpi. Reverting it back to 360 makes Lockstar work again.
Sad, won't keep my phone at a crap dpi just for a lockscreen!
