Custom ROMs might not be as popular as before thanks to the advent of Xposed, but they are not entirely redundant as well. The Galaxy S7 and S7 edge might be near darn perfect, but not everyone likes all the bloat that Touchwiz comes with, even if it’s not too in-your-face this time around.

So, if you have already rooted your Galaxy S7 or S7 edge and are looking for some custom ROMs to install on it, check out our recommendation of some of the best custom ROMs available for the handsets.

Do note that all the ROMs mentioned below are for the Exynos variant of the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge.

For Galaxy S7 edge:

Renovate Edge

Based on the latest firmware for the Galaxy S7 edge (G935F), Renovate Edge is a debloated ROM that comes with a number of additional tweaks and customization options. This includes being able to install the stock iOS emoji, improved video recording quality, battery bar, App lock, extended power menu, and more.

Since the developer of the ROM uses SVN to push updates, there is no need for you to download the full ROM whenever he pushes out an update. Instead, you can setup the build environment on your PC and then build update packages for the ROM by only downloading parts of the ROM that have changed.

Sac23 Note7 ROM

The Note 7 is yet to make its debut in the United States, but the new version of Touchwiz that the handset runs on has already been ported over to the Galaxy S7 edge. While there are a couple of other similar ROMs for the handset, none of them are bug-free and completely stable like Sac23’s ROM.

The developer has kept the stock look of the new Touchwiz intact, with only some basic tweaks like animation time being tweaked. There is also a custom kernel included with the ROM along with a modded launcher, multi-window for all apps, and an advanced reboot menu.

Even though the ROM is perfectly stable for daily use, expect to run into some bugs and battery life issues every once in a while.
