I loaded the Great Britain tizen on my Gear, and all works, except the gear manager shows a blank screen for samsung app. Is this normal? are there any apps to sideload, and how do you do that?
Thanks!
Jim
No that's not normal. What build version did you flash?
There's no sideloading because it's Tizen based not android. Unless someone knows of Tizen apps not on the market.

Thanks for any help!
Phone is Galaxy note 3 running 4.4.2
You might have a bad download, or flash of NE9. Try downloading and re-flashing again. Or you can possibly download and flash the latest update ending with NF1.

OK, I'll try it. All I did was use odid v3.09 in defaults to flash over the android os. Could I have missed any steps?
I'll put the canadian (XAC) NF1 on it tonight,
I believe you did everything right. It's a simple process. Sometimes file downloads can be corrupt. I had one that kicked my butt for 2 days. I downloaded and it was fine.
Try the Canadian NF1 and see what happens. It's the one I'm on with my note 3 and all is well.

OK, thanks. It's just strange the error shows up on the gear manager, the watch is solid. should you remove the watch from gear manager before the update?
It's a good idea to do a complete fresh install and pairing. So when the gear connects uncheck the restore box so it doesn't try to reload old android apps.

define "fresh install"? I cannot uninstall gear manager. I did uncheck the restore box.
Thanks
On the gear enter stock recovery and perform a factory data reset. Use Odin to flash new firmware. When gear pairs with phone for first time do not restore old gear settings. Start fresh.

do you have a link to a known good canadian version. I downloaded from two sites and while the files are identical in size, they give a different MD5

I factory reset, and flashed the latest Canadian one, and there was no difference. Gear Manager shows no Samsung Apps. All else is fine. except I cannot get it to connect to bluetooth headphones for the media player.
Puzzled,
Jim

There appear to be a few of us United-Statesians who are having this problem, Jim. I experienced this issue on my Note 3 when i prematurely flashed Tizen, and another user in response to a thread I posted a week back noted that he experienced the issue as well.
At least you can rest assured that it is not just your phone or Gear.
I even flashed the XAR version of NF1 today, and still no luck.
Oddly, though, I was able to see the apps in the store for a short period of time, when the app store notified me of an update to watch styler. I've been able to reproduce the effect by installing an old version of watch styler, waiting a few minutes (anywhere from 15 to an hour), and then going into the app store for the update. For some reason, when the gear app store sees the need for an update, it allows you to view all of the apps on the store. Not sure if it works with updates to any other apps, but I don't see a reason that it woiuldn't. An odd workaround, I know, but it may work for you as well.
Good luck!
No apps fix
In my case I had my Samsung Gear updated from Android to Tizen (NE9 version) and my Note 3 updated the Gear Manager automatically, when detected Gear with Tizen.
I tried all the steps above with no luck, so I uninstalled the Gear Manager (from Galaxy apps application) and rebooted the phone. Installed a fresh version of Gear Manager from Galaxy Apps and after connected with watch everything worked. Now I can see many apps for my watch on Samsung Gear Apps.
I hope this helps!

I received my Gear VR today and have attempted to install the software. It installed some of the software but at the blue screen where it says install App Manager / Oculus / Oculus Home, it downloads the 38.7 megs of files and then displays install error.
Has anyone seen this?
Edit: I am on ANJ5 firmware

I got the same thing, I'm Firekat for Vz Note 4 De.
Mine is completely stock locked down verizon note 4. I am currently switching to ART runtime to see if it helps.
What I had to do was go into applications manager / Samsung Gear VR Services / and clear data, and it worked...totally bizarre.
I've been using gear vr on nougat beta fine, but the last day or so it's been asking to update, I click update it downloads then asks to update again, anyone know how to fix this? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling
Anyone
Oculus System Driver apk
Hi,

I have also uploaded the Oculus System Driver here

Also not update
Download Oculus Home and then asks to update again

I've tried them, and it's still asking for driver update
I've recently factory reset my Note 9 which was rooted and subsequently unrooted prior to purchase. Before I reset it, I could install S Health 4.x to bypass the root issue with the most recent version. This time, however, I cannot get version 4.x to install. I've tried via APK mirror and also via ADB, but it fails "App not installed". Other apps downloaded from APK mirror install fine.
Any ideas without rooting again, which I don't want to do?
Facing the same issue after updating to pie on s8.
It was working on oreo
dont know what all of you guys are doing wrong but I'm on pie and its working fine.(knox tripped)
im not hiding it with magisk. every custom rom available for pie that ive tried had it working. maybe the roms have something baked in to make it work but i have not herd of such.
plus v4 is ancient.
Hello.
I'd like to know if someone can confirm if the Samsung Galaxy S10 Lineup is still compatible with Gear VR after the One UI 3.0/Gear VR. I'm looking foward to buy a SM-R325 and I want to know if I can still use it with my Galaxy S10e G970F on Android 11 or if I have to downgrade to Android 10.
Sorry if I've posted in the wrong section.
It works! I´ve tested mine last night on UI3/Android11 with Vodafone Branding
Has anyone been able to get an usb external drive to work? I had an external SSD that alerts that the drive is connected, but doesn't show up in Oculus, apps like Pigasis, Skybox, or Oculus Video... just the main phone and SD card folder systems. It worked for sure before the update. Looked at the permissions, and storage is allowed.
I have s10+ SM-G975F. Im on android 11, stock rom with magisk and twrp. And Gear VR works! I tried to get Gear VR working on other ROMs, but it's simply impossible. The problem is getting the Gear VR service app installed as a system app.
These are the files you need.

Thank you for this app share. I am trying to see if I can get my S21+ to work as I hate to lose this functionality. Lost alot of little things so far making the jump from my Note 8.
Out of curiosity did anyone get a network error message when trying to start the initialisation process?

Hello, how to install with Magisk ? please, thank you.
Hi,
Some months ago, Gear VR worked nicely in S10e Android 11 OneUI 3.1 (if you update your android beyond this, Gear VR is disabled (not supported). Even in S7 Android 8.0 SE 9.0 worked. But last update to Oculus system by Facebook/Meta has logged out the account and I can't log even though I've updated my oculus account to new Meta System, following the steps dictated by Meta.
