"Edge-Features" on custom launcher - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hi,
I'm thinking about switching to S7 Edge. As my usual phone customisations always include using a thrid party launcher, I wonder how the Edge-features are implemented. Are they normal apps, so they will work in another launcher also (like nova) or are they an embedded part of touchwiz and won't work when I switch launchers.
Thanks in advance for a quick answer.

I use Nova launcher and have no problem with Edge features

Everything works perfectly! I'm using nova and I don't have any problem with any feature.

Anything lost by not using Touchwiz?

Do any of the new Note 3 features (pen or not) get impacted from using a different launcher?

The swipe up/home button press my magazine gets removed. Thats it.
You can overcome this, (Im using apex) and you can bind my magazine to a home button press if you miss it.
Using Nova Launcher Prime, all of the spen features work perfect, haven't noticed anything that is broken yet.
Can I disable My Magazine?
I'm coming from the other direction. I like the stock launcher and everything Touchwiz and S-pen related, I just want the swipe-up My Magazine feature to be disabled. Is there a way to do this without rooting or using a different launcher? Thanks in advance,
Nate

[q] Alternative launchers = lost TW functionality?

Do I use any special TouchWiz features if I use an alternative launcher, like Lightning Launcher?
And if not, would that still be the case if I froze or remover TW Launcher all together?

don't know much about it, but for sure I can tell you that you'll lose the accuweather widget..if you can live without it, then you are free to try different launchers.. I suggest you to use Nova Launcher
p.s. obviously if you haven't deactived TW, when you'll use it again you will be able to use the accuweather widget again
I don't care about widgets. I only care whether there is some phone, rom or camera functionality that I lose.
You will not loose any features. Just try an alternative launcher and if you are not happy with it then deinstall it.

S6 Edge+, Launchers not showing icons.

Hi everybody. I've a problem on my S6edge+. In some launchers like Pixel Launcher and Google Launcher I can't see any icons. I open the menu and it's empty. I've no problem with touchwiz or Nova. Any ideas? I'd like to try something different.
u have to be rooted.

It's because you are using Knox, has nothing to do with root.
If you remove Knox, then you will see the icons.

Does Good Lock work with Nova?

And has it been working reliably in general for anyone? I haven't been able to change my home clock.
Idk what you're really asking but yes i have both installed and 0 issues on any of them.
Yes it works for me
I had problems when I disabled One UI with a package disabler

Guess you are running 3rd party launcher like Nova?

You can use it with Samsung oneui. Not supporting 3 part launchers. I don't know why how but it is.

Somehow I found a work around for Nova. I selected the default one ui launcher and then enabled the gestures. Went back and changed the default launcher to Nova and the gesture navigation stuck. Now I gotta get used to the nav bar being gone and using gestures. ?

You are probably using Samsung gestures (from the bottom of the screen), they work. Googles gestures do not work nova.
Hi guys, just a question : with this new gestures I noticed I'm not able to use completely One Hand +, so I need to lock screen with physic Button. Do you have advices? Thanks
