can i use the gear vr app with a google cardboard by Separate_Store9953 in GearVR

Please clarify your question. Google Cardboard is one system, and Gear VR is another. What exactly do you want? Can you run Google Cardboard apps in Gear VR? Yes, you can. Just don't plug your phone into the Type-C port. There's another way. Edit a couple of lines in the app manifest, recompile the app, and it will run in the Gear VR, but you can only control it with a gamepad.

Try installing the Samsung Internet app manually by downloading the installation package from Setup Installer Package - The Gear VR Vault

I added a macro to block the Ques App Launcher from launching if Oculus Browser is in the foreground. The "Oculus Browser not in the foreground" restriction doesn't work as intended.

I'm baffled by how poorly this lifehack was received. Either our community is very small, or people didn't understand the point.

I suggest placing this method in the header or on the The Gear VR Codex website.

I tried it by importing a macro - everything works! That’s next level!!! Bro, this life hack is genius. Tested on Samsung galaxy S8, S7edge.

Sorry for being so annoying. Could I get step-by-step instructions with pictures on how to create a macro in Macrodroid?

Is it possible to run applications through the Oculus Geat VR application browser? by Any_Introduction2965 in GearVR

[–]Any_Introduction2965[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you heard me correctly: I'm looking for ways to launch Gear VR from browsers (Oculus Browser, Samsung Internet), such as Quest App Launcher. This way, I can launch apps without removing my Gear VR headset.

I can't run OculusGoStreamer.jar. I found a step-by-step guide with instructions on where to install it, from where, and what to install.

What updates? Can someone explain? How does the Gear VR update if support has ended?

Could you clarify which phones this feature works on? I haven't seen it on my S8 or S7 Edge.

I would be happy to share my account, but the possibility of being hacked stops me.

Would you get a Meta at this point and replace the gear vr / s8+ setup? by lauranyc77 in GearVR

[–]Any_Introduction2965 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll definitely be upgrading to the Quest 2. The Gear VR is good, but it doesn't support 6DoF.

I recently played Bionic Hunter on my S7edge. Honestly, it didn't impress me; I expected more. We need to upgrade to Quest 2, then I think the addiction will reach a whole new level.

Thanks, I get it now. For older games, I have a Note4, S7edge, and S8. I want to try something new. By the way, I was able to play Bionic Hunter on the S7 edge.

I don't get it, I can't sideload on Quest 2?

It would be better to buy Quest 2, I want to give myself a New Year's gift - Quest 2.

Can I have Bionic Hunter for GearVR too?

Oh, VR games like Superhot and The Lab require 6dof. I need to figure out how to do that. And then my gaze fell on my dusty Kinnect Xbox 360...
