You can now install the Google Pixel 2 launcher on any phone. Check it out on the Galaxy Note 8, complete with S Pen, Bixby and edge screen functions intact.

The Pixel 2 launcher will work on all phones running Android Lollipop and above, but with the best features reserved for those running Android 8.0 Oreo (notification dots and the ability to change app icon shapes aren’t available without Oreo).
To install the launcher, download the APK from the link below. If you just want the launcher and don’t mind NOT having the Google app on the far left screen, allow Unknown Sources and just launch the APK.
However, if you DO want the Google app home screen, you’ll need to install the launcher as a system app on a rooted device.
You can either flash the zip file from the link below as a system app via TWRP, or do it yourself (see below).
Grab the APK: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/pixel-2-launcher-t3688186
To install the launcher as a system app manually, simply move the APK from your downloads folder to /system/app using a file manager like Solid Explorer. Once you’ve moved the APK, long press it and go to Properties, where you need to change some read/write permissions, like so:
User: R, W
Group: R
Other: R
Apply the changes and reboot your device. You’ll now have the Google app screen on the far left home screen of the Pixel 2 launcher.

Hey guys, forgot to mention there's detailed installation instructions in the video description, hope you enjoyed this quick little video!
Business Opportunity in Ruvol
I have invented a Board Game [still unpublished and not yet out in the market] that I believe is guaranteed to be as challenging and exciting as CHESS. I called it “RUVOL.â€ÂÂ
It is my hope that one day Ruvol may surpass chess as the “Number One Board Game in the World.â€ÂÂ
The weakness of chess is it always starts in fixed positions that the opening moves become “memorizable.†In fact, not a few have so mastered the moves that they can play against their opponents “blindfolded.†It is for this very reason that the great Bobby Fischer introduced his so-called “Fischer Random Chess,†where the starting position of the pieces is “randomized†to make the memorization of openings impracticable. Fortunately, it is also for this reason that I invented Ruvol where “every game†has been calculated to be a challenging one to play.
HOW IS RUVOL PLAYED and HOW YOU CAN MONETIZE IT?
I detailed everything in my YouTube video. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcqth0m3-R0
BIG MONEY POTENTIAL IN RUVOL!
It is worthwhile to note that the people who play chess will be the same people who will play Ruvol. In my Google search, I learned there are around 800 million chess players in the world. Even just a small percentage of these 800 million is good enough to earn big money from Ruvol either as an ONLINE GAME BUSINESS or as a PHYSICAL PRODUCT DISTRIBUTOR.

Thanks and God bless!

Great video
Does this slow down the phone
nice video!
Will Pixel Launcher come to Samsung Mobiles officially ?
Will this make the phone run a bit smoother as well or is it purely cosmetic?
I still prefer stock Android, but having an official Google launcher helps out a ton if you happen to own a Samsung or other skinned Android device.
How to get rid of it?
