⚠️ Critical Server Status NoticePlease be aware that Meta (Oculus) and Samsung have officially discontinued all software and server support for the Gear VR platform. If you attempt to connect a compatible phone normally, the official installation wizard will likely fail, get stuck in an infinite update loop, or throw a connection error because the servers are no longer online.How to use it anywayThe community has found workarounds to keep the hardware running. If you want to use the headset, you will need to manually install the setup packages and block the update servers using a tool like NetGuard, or enable Gear VR Developer Mode via your phone's app settings to launch previously installed local applications without docking checking servers.
