Have you encountered any bugs with launcher/edge panels/bkxby after installing?Oh.Ok..Thank you
You must clear data and cache of the launcher in apps manager. So we can prevent the force stopping problem. And there's no noticeable bugs I saw. There's a little lag while opening Bixby by sliding to left from the home screen. Totally it works well.

I felt no issues with edge panel. If you wish to remove go to launcher info and uninstall the updates.

Damn, still no luck, even with that step bt step guide. Altrough the installing process itself is much longer and laggier but end same way: package conflict.

You must be so fast after restarting. Installation must be done quickly as soon as possible.Damn, still no luck, even with that step bt step guide.
Disable lockscreen and add a shortcut of launcher to the home screen in a way that suits you to access quickly. Try dude. Only need fast fingers.:good::laugh:Yeah. I already gived up trying.
Unable to uninstall
Tried to uninstall by uninstalling all updates and clearing cache ect. but doesnt work.

Its Zopper mate. Works flawlessly and works the way its intended to work. I did have to check the option which enables updating weather when screen is off. It just wouldnt update otherwise.
Edit- Got a better alternative. Don't use Zooper. It's called XWidget available for free from PlayStore. Have a look in the screenshot I attached. This is an exact Galaxy S8 replica.

hello, s8 launcher worked on my s7 but later i unistall and after i install again e show up the package error. how i fix this?
I've tried installed S8 launcher with your tutorial and it works like charm. The launcher and weather widget has been working very good so far. Thanks a lot!!!
I did some testing too. No need to clear cache partition. Just have to clear touchwiz cache in app settings. Then reboot and install from apk shortcut.Dude I solved it...hurray
I'm done it on my non-rooted S7 edge
These are the steps I done
1. Add a shortcut of the apk to the home screen from the my files app
2.Power off the phone.
3. Cleared the cache partition.
4. Restarted the phone.
5. Quickly installed the Apk by accessing the shortcut from home screen.
(Now it's installed
6. But the launcher keeps force stopping.
So I cleared touchwiz home's data and cache from app manager.
7. Now it's working fine.
I also installed Bixby app through the same process.
Hope this solution works for all those who face the conflicting signature problem.

Yeah. I mentioned it after this post. Needs only just a restart and fast fingers.
To install it
1. Add a shortcut of the apk to the home screen from the my files app
2. Go in settings > Lock Screen and Security > Screen Lock Type and then select none to remove any lock
3. Go in settings > Lock Screen and Security > Unknow Sources and then enable this option
4. Reboot the phone in recovery mode by pressing Volume up + Home + Power Keys
5. Cleared the cache partition.
6. Restarted the phone.
7. Quickly installed the Apk by accessing the shortcut from home screen.
(Now it's installed )
Do the same as above for Bixby
I have successfully installed this Launcher and Bixby apks on my Note 5 on Naougat. Icon pack is not like S8 but they are still change from current Note 5 icons and a bit improved. App drawer can now be accesses in a different way.
On left side I can scroll to open Bixby instead of flipboard.
Here is a demo video for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XaTi4XRqbsE

Did all those steps, removed lock screen, removed sim lock, added shortcut, booted phone and tapped so hard that shortcut after bootin' again. Still gives package error
Is possible to remove warning, of the launcher that says slide up or down, every time you go to home screen?
