Can not find cinema app

I bought at&t note 5 and gear VR, I am not able to find any app in Oculus store. How can I view downloaded VR video?
Edit: tried and installed cinema app apk, was still not able to use it. The app does not shows app tab but I was able to install milk Vr from within the app and then watched some videos.

I beleive it is now called Oculus Video.

hey
Whats up brother I have a note 5 to and had the same issue. To use the cinema download the 0.5.0 version of mobile sdk here at https://developer.oculus.com/downloads/ . Then just extract it and drag cinema.apk into your root and install it. That should work if not already you should find package disabler pro.apk and install that on your phone its a big help and crucial. You cant launch cinema thru the oculushome software it wil be a regular app on your phone it should just prompt you to insert you phone and go!

SideloadVR for Gear VR

Anyone here familiar with this? It's pretty cool, sort of a sideloading market for people to put up their creations, doesn't post the programs in Oculus VR, but the programs work within the Gear VR headset.

Pretty cool. I got Quake VR from there, plus a not half bad Youtube theater app.

Has anyone tried the Virtualex Reader, if there are no books I get to see the bookshelf but the minute I add epubs to the folder the app crashes. I would like to y this out, any suggestions?

I had the same problem. The epub you are loading is likely still drm protected. If you can remove the drm protection ( not for pirating-must own the book) it does work. However the book I loaded now works perfectly in all other epub readers and in Virtualex Reader does not display pictures (just text) and the text is in a courier like font (blech). I uninstalled once I got it working. ?

No luck here. I will keep trying, but considering that you can't control the font it might not be worth it anyways.

When you install SideLoad VR, it takes you through the process of generating an Oculus key which in turn enables you to install the Oculus home store. Unfortunately, anything you launch from the store still asks that you plug in GearVR... Wish there was a way around this. Surely whatever info OpenGear is sending to phones to emulate GearVR should be able to be run as a server on your PC over the same USB cord instead?

Was it DRM? It took me all day to find which removal system would work with mine.

Nope, it is not a DRM protected.

Hmm, for some reason i have a 18 digit ID, which causes all sorts of trouble as the oculus page will just accept 16 digits :/ Anyone know how to get around this?

hi, i use it with my samsung S6 edge gear
sideloadvr and download steam teather
then connect stream teather with nvidia shield ...goes ok
but i wonder if i can use it with team viewer or something like that so i can use the gear vr with all my desktop

about 3d movies

i got a question about playing 3d movies on the gear vr...i saw lots of tutorials how to watch them and this thing really got me confused.....so after u convert the videos and all you can watch them using the player inside the oculus apk by having the cinema(etc) background .why cant it be played by not connecting the phone to the gear usb or by using package disabler and be full screen ? i'm sorry if this is a dumb question but i really want to know......

You can do as you say but the aspect will be all wrong in most apps. You can adjust the pixel ratio within Kodi to compensate but this will use your VR as simply a 3D viewer (no vr theatre). If you want to view your movie full screen in 2D from your phone directly, use Kodi ( Isangard downloaded from kodi website- Jarvais version from Play Store doesn't work) and select view 3D movies as 2D/monoscopic.

im more than happy using kodi to view 3d files after adjusting the settings.

If I helped, please use the thanks button. ?

I don't do tutorials because I suck at them but I have put together a small video to explain this for you. Basically setup kodi to your viewing liking and insert it in your gear VR (or not).

Thank you very much for that.
I did all that. But when I put my phone in it opens up oculus app.

Gear VR Service has to be disabled first. If your phone is rooted then you can just freeze it. If you are not rooted you can use a package disabler from the play store. (Use search). If you just want to try it out first just lift the USB port on the gear vr and sneak your phone under it - a little loose, but works.

Ace that's great thank you. I have a package disabler already that I use to stop the game stuff running as the picture is crap!! Thank you ever so much. I know what I'll be doing tonight ?

I use MilkVR to watch all 3D movies. If you dont live in the US dl it though a proxyserver.

so milk vr is like oculus cinema cause i try to see my own movies and the oculus video said to put through the camera, i dont know if oculus put it up from the sd card of sg7?

For Gear VR I noticed you have to start the app then insert it for outside developers ,, Some of my Games and apps loaded into the library , others had to be launched first then a notification to insert it into the Gear comes up

Install apps outside Oculus Store

I am tired of the lack of functionality of the Player branded to Oculus VR: Samsung VR, Moon Player, Video or Theater, i want a player that will allow me to add my own folders but work the same as Moon player(no file renaming). I found some good players in Playstore but how to port them into Oculus Store ? It's very annoying to remove the glasses and the phone every time you are changing apps without Oculus. Anybody has a solution how to port apps into Oculus Store ?

Before I installed a custom MarshMall Rom, I was using Fulldive and I had the mouse cursor enabled on my phone launcher and apps (not sure how, maybe because of sixaxis and my ps3 controller?).
Then I would place the shortcuts on the home screen where I could see them with one eye and click on them using the vr touchpad to move the cursor.
I just did the ROM the other day and have been messing with just trying to everything working again.

I have looked into this, I didn't find a way to import apps to oculus home. I tried using a custom ROM, but that bricked my phone. Only other way I found was to use package disabler

Is there a place to download oculus apps outside from the store anyway?

Apk extractor

The only way I know to do this would require someone who has the desired Oculus app already installed on their device. They would have use an APK extractor to get the apk file then copy it to your device and install it. Since its already an Oculus signed application it should show up in your library. You could possibly do this with paid apps as well

There is an app called SideloadVR which allows you to install apps outside the Oculus store. Be aware that you need an *.osig file to make it work. It explains the process in the app. Hope I helped
