Install Galaxy S7 Launcher on Galaxy S6, S5 & Note 5

Posted by Flashing Room on Friday, March 4, 2016

Every time a new flagship gets released, developers wait for the system dump to go online so they can extract the most requested applications and port them to older devices. This thing happens every year with Samsung devices. Every time Samsung releases the next flagship, users port apps to older Galaxy devices.


The Samsung Galaxy S7 is no exception. It was unveiled by Samsung at MWC and it is considered as one of the best smartphones of 2016. Now, there are people who pre-order the phone and there are people who cannot afford the next Galaxy or simply they don’t want to spend that much money for a slightly better device, especially if they already own the Galaxy S6, S6 edge or Note 5.

How To Install S7 Apps (Launcher, Keyboard, Weather Widget, Wallpapers) on S6, S5, Note 5

If you don’t have a Galaxy S7 but a Galaxy S5, S6 or Note 5, you need to flash a custom ROM based on S7’s ROM, otherwise the launcher might not work correctly.

Note: Make a backup of your current launcher. If the new launcher does not work or it force closes, you can restore the original S7 launcher.

  1. Download Samsung Galaxy S7 Apps
    1. GalaxyS7 Wallpapers [download]
    2.  Galaxy S7 Launcher [download]
    3. Galaxy S7 Keyboard [download]
    4. Galaxy S7 Weather widget [download]
    1. Extract the zip file. You will get an APK file and a libs folder.
    2. If you are on a Galaxy S6, go to System > Priv-app > TouchwizHome_MR1 and move the extracted APK file. Select correct permissions (rw-r-r).
    3. Reboot your phone.
    Enjoy Samsung Galaxy S7 launcher on your Galaxy S6, Galaxy S5, Note 5 or other Samsung phones.
