He means it costs only Re.1 (INR).. 1 cent will be in USD currency. The thing is Amazon India is doing a giveaway of the Oneplus VR to its Indian customers.

That,I don't know,mate Since Moto G3 doesn't have gyroscope,I don't think any VR equipment will work with it. Better you change your phone. By the way,Moto G4 contains gyroscope.

I have the Google Cardboard. I tried it in on the Moto G 3 here what I can tell:
Only about 1/4 of the content actually works, pretty much all high quality VR content requires the gyroscope.
You can watch videos and even play a few games but its very hard to find them. The Google Play Store says any VR app is not compatible with your device, you need to download their APK from somewhere else to install and try the Game, and most of the times it will just crash for the lacking gyro.
Resuming: the Moto G is not really a VR Device, only with tricks and it is still not a decent experience.
there's no gyro in the phone you can only watch movies and it's not good beacuse of the 720p display, i just tried the Google cardboard

I am testing an Xposed module which is VirtualSensor, It uses the accelerometer and the compass to emulate the gyroscope. I don't have any VR headset yet, but it has been working pretty well on 360° videos, and in StreetView, as well with a testing app which has a few games. By the way, it's not working in every single app which requires gyroscope, but I guess the developer is doing his/her best to make it the most efficient as possible.
If anybody here has a VR headset, try it!
I play 360º videos and youtube streams with "VR Player (free)".
Just chose "acelerometer and compass" in the config

Yeah that's crazy. Why would they not include the Tegra 2? I guess it's all a waiting game on Netflix or to see if someone can crack it to make it work.

Apologies for the noobish question, I've searched the forums and googled etc.. and not found the answer to my question...
This is my first Android phone, so I'm still getting my head around how things work - quite a few major apps are not compatible with the XZ, is this just because it's a new phone and apps need to be adjusted to work with new handsets? And if so, how long does it take in general for an app to be made compatible? (eg. Angry Birds Star Wars which is a huge game, isn't compatible, I assume this will change in the near future?)
I know it is possible to download programs to bypass incompatibilities, but I don't want to jailbreak (or whatever you fancy Android types call it) my phone just yet.
Sorry if this is a dumb question/answered somewhere else and I'm being totally blind - please lock the thread if so!

No it's not Google's problem. We will all have to wait for the app to be updated by the developer.

You mean the Sony Select app? For some reason that app doens't let you search for apps, so it isn't that useful, unless I'm wrong of course.

NOt sure if I'm doing something wrong, but I don't have such app on my XZ. When I look for it in the Play store, I can find an official PlayStation app, but this just seems to be an info app to promote games for PS2/PSP.
The app "ChatON" is also incompatible it says on google play/store. But thatsnot true, beouse if you downlaod the apk file an dcopyed to the phone then you are able to install it and use it as normal, so strange that its says incompatibel in google's app store. Im now runing the ChatON newest version, I love this app as me and all my friends use it as they have S3 mobiles. Im the first now that have got the sony xperia Z. My first inpresson will come later in a post I can write it in if I find a section to write my first impresion in.
Candy Crush Saga is also listed as incompatible on the Play Store. But if you download and install the apk, it works fine.

Thank you kind Sir. I was looking for a way to do this for quite a while now.
This trick only works with the version that is currently in the Play Store, not the current modified (screen off and 1080p playback) one that is floating around XDA.
Still, once switched to the homescreen, screen-off playback works too.
Just download viral from the play store it allows you to play YouTube in a small window or run in the background

Yeah but you need root + custom rom to use Halo (I know there are some app that emulate it). Viral can use on any device and its very fast, probably use less resources than the Youtube app itself. I can even use it as an offline video player if you set links to open in pop up mode (which then can be fullscreened), I don't even need MXPlayer anymore. Also with Viral you can select YouTube videos to play in any existing resolution available.
Do you guys have any rom review suggestion for me? I want to do review of some rom

Hi guys, i have a galaxy s3 with archidroid, and i've just buy a chromecast. Play music and YouTube run smooth but when i try to do the screen mirroring it lags so much, even the phone lags, and i dont know why. I have a 20 mbps connection, and the device is just 2 meters from router...i see that device like nex 5 runs very smooth, there are something i can do?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Free mobile app
Not really since your device isn't supported for mirroring. I'm guessing you're using the mirror app. The S3's hardware specs are dated and can't provide the full performance needed to mirror without issues. I have a LGG3 which is a supported device but even I get a bit of lag and watching an entire program even if the phone is next to the router is never stutter free.

Age is probably one factor but Rom and the amount of crap you have running in the background will also affect performance.
FYI: The PS4 Controller works with GN4 (rooted) and the Gear VR with a stock ROM using Sixaxis Controller(Paid) :good:
I didn't know if it would work, and I didn't see anyone else post a thread about it, but it is working beautifully.
This is the perfect setup for Dreadhalls. Scary as $hit with a nice set of headphones!
If you have a custom rom
Flash to stock using Kies
Insert phone to Gear VR
Run the update from your carrier
Let the Oculus app install
Ensure you can use at least one app form Oculus app store
Run simple root again
Install Sixaxis Controller(paid) or some other PS controller app
Enjoy! :victory:
Now the million dollar question is.. does it work with remote play?
Nice. Im gonna get GearVR as soon as its available in Europe.
Im not a big fan of ps4. I play on xbox one so Ive bought a nice bluetooth controller from ebay thats very similar to xbox controller and is usable with Note 4
