Hi,
I have never used one of the edge phones before, and was wondering if the display notifications on the edge of the screen only work with Touchwiz?
i normally use nova launcher on my S5 and was wondering if i will lose out on any features if i continue to when buying the S7 edge?
Cheers

AFAIK, the edge notifications are only available with screen off, with the screen on you get the default heads up notifications of android 6.0, so no, they aren't launcher dependent. But you'll need a stock based ROM though (which anyways isn't a case atm, because there aren't any others, but still).
Using Apex launcher with full edge functionality without issues.
Why install Nova or Apex? Are they faster? What do they offer what Touchwiz does not? I personally don't like the way Touchwiz/icons looks but saw you can make it look like stock Android 6 with a simple theme change.
Grid size/number change on app drawer and home screen, all widgets resize possibility, put one widget under the other one (cross them), a lot of beautiful themes/icon packs that touchwith don't have, ios 6 like folders design, transparent status bar, animation...
BTW, Miui ROM has amazing design, so there is MIUI 5 and MIUI 7 - ICON PACK by tung91 on Play Market with hundreds miui icons. The first one is free and it´s similar to donate version.
Yes obviously

Hi Bro.
You can use the app on the play store called "Glance Plus"
Is very beautiful, but it have a big battery consumption
Don't do it,
Firstly those apps are meant for AMOLED displays, which you don't have, so it is going to drain a lot of battery for basically nothing...
I need a little help. Im using nova on the s7 edge. There is this ugly black shadow ontop of my homescreen. It looks terrible whenever im using a colorful wallpaper. You can even notice it when using a darker wallpaper if you look close enough. Is there anyway to remove it? or is that build into samsung? i know it's not nova doing. thanks
You sure it's not Nova? Go to Nova Settings>Desktop>Advanced>Shadow (shows shadow on top of homescreen)

Hmm..If so, then there is something wrong on your device .... if "notification bar is turned off" then you should not have it on desktop, but you still have ......

Wish I was on Nougat already -_- I might just uninstall and reset the phone see if it helps. That shadow is getting on my last nerve.
Have you seen any problem like this before? or is something wrong with the phone?

The gallery part is normal. The shadow appears on mine when I bring up the options, then disappear when the options disappear.

yeah it shows it when im on the " more option screen " too but when in the preview wallpaper screen..is not there. but once the wallpaper is applied...the shadow shows up.
I have exactly the same issue. Dark gray rectangle appears on top of my homescreen wallpaper in low light conditions. In normal daylight the rectangle disappears. It's not a hardware issue because other windows like settings and lockscreen dont have this problem. Its the homescreen wallpaper only.
Tried Nova and Smart launcher and even Touchwiz, same thing.
I have Android 6.0.1 stock samsung rom. I think its a software problem. Nougat is not available for my phone yet.
Any ideas?
I opened Theme Store app and applied original theme and the wallpaper which comes with the theme doesn't have this issue. As soon as I set a new wallpaper picked from my gallery the shadow is back on top of the screen.
I download a few other themes and applied them and all the wallpapers which came with them didn't have the shadow problem and were covering full screen perfectly. But as soon as I set a new wallpaper the problem reoccurs.
So this is definitely a software problem.

Thanks

Samsung is so funny, lets hide the cutout with a darker spot in the top right corner of the wallpaper lol
Update: Official Wallpapers released for the Samsung Gallaxy S10e, S10, and S10+ during the launch event.
Here's how the wallpaper would look on the Galaxy S8/S9 running One Ui with the similar setup as the Galaxy S10.

Yep, it seems they are not so much proud of their 'invention'.
Actually it's two steps back in display evolution (in hands with Apple). Maybe three.
I'm gonna skip this year's phones too and stay with the last good Samsung mobile that is the S7 (no edge)...

I took all six wallpapers and put them in a folder and am using Wallpaper Changer to rotate among them. (Why the workaround? I have an S7 (Snapdragon) - which has no Samsung One.) For some rather odd reason, I can't ad a folder to the default settings for my wallpaper rotation; Wallpaper Changer lets you do so.
what about these wallpapers
I'm looking for the same wallpaper from lock screen. They seems to change with every unlock.
Maybe they will be into the system dump here

The lockscreen wallpapers are kinda like LWPs. They tilt when you move the phone. I don't remember if static versions exist.
