Gear VR on Custom roms - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

so for a wile now I've been trying to get gear vr to work with with custom roms, mainly the light weight roms that have removed all Samsung stuff, I've gotten as far as getting most of the needed files installed and being able to launch a vr game, but one thing, once you do launch a game or anything vr and put the headset on you cant mover around on it, when you go to move your head it stays still, and I'm thinking its a driver issue or something not sure , any help to get it working will be awesome, and I'm just wondering why getting gear vr to work on rom is such a grey spot still?

Did you ever figure out how to load the Gear VR on lightweight ROMS? Trying on Project Alice. Not sure what to do. Thanks bud

How can I collaborate my gyroscope?

I have this problem that in vr it drifts to the left, this only happens in cardboard mode but when using the actual Samsung headset it's perfectly fine. I use a app that let's me use my gear for both options. I've looked all over and used apps to collaborate the gyroscope but nothing has worked so far, I have jasmine rom 7.0 and I don't think the Samsung debug menu works on this rom where I could collaborate it manually. I was wondering if there was another way.

Has anyone got Daydream working on S7 Edge?

So I have managed to install and download Daydream and Daydream games. When I launch it, either I get the games running in full screen 2D mode (which is useless for VR) or sometimes I get a black screen with the vertical white centre line. Occasionally I hear sound but there is no visual content. Just black screen.
I have tried the sailfish build prop entry.
I have tried pixelify majisk module.
I have of course added the needed 2 lines to etc permissions file.
I have tried a combination of enabling and disabling the above. Nothing works. It's driving me nuts.
I am on latest 7.0 official rom. No custom ROM, just rooted.
What puzzles me I hear so many people getting to to work straight away. Do I need the official Daydream headset? Maybe they don't work as no NFC chip is detected.
I wonder if it only works on phones with Snapdragon and not Exynos?
Anyone succeed?
No one?

How can i force VR (Side-By-Side) Mode on ANY Android Smartphone (Systemwide like K6)

Hello,
i have bought a Lenovo K6 and it has and integrated support for VR, splitting screen system-wide in two as shown in this picture. I find that extremly convenient, because i can surf the web outside with one of those VR-Glasses.
As far as i know it's only supported on a few Lenovo K... devices, but as i may need to buy a need phone i'd like to know how to upgrade another phone that hasn't got this option so that it is also able to do that. There's of course no gyroscope necessary as there is no 3D maneuvering going on, just seeing the screen in full-size through those glasses via SBS (Side-By-Side) View.
So what i need is simply a Splitscreen, does anyone know an option to do that? Would be very appreciated :angel:
I saw this on a K6, too. I would like to do this on my Redmi Note 8 Pro, too. Did you find a solution yet?
I noticed that on my Lenovo note K5 too... But now that I have a VR headset I no longer have that phone working. R8 now I am using realme 5 pro .. and looking for any apps/ magisk module that could give me that VR split screen function ....
I've been searching this for a long time still haven't got any solution. I am using Samsung J6+. If got any module or any app, please post it here. I don't know why it is too hard to just duplicate the screen to two. Why isn't there any magisk modules yet.

Samsung gear s on OnePlus 6t??

I have just got rid of my s9 to get the 6t and now I cant seem to get the galaxy wearable app on my 6t to see my watch.. seeing as they are pretty much exact same chipsets.. is it some in the build.prop I can edit to get it to work?
Not sure about editing the build.prop but I have the Gear Fit 2 Pro and the Gear S3 Frontier both connected to my 6T. I found that sometimes the app is kind of finicky to get connected and I will have to turn Bluetooth off and on again, sometimes a couple of times to get connected the first time. Also keep the screen on your phone on to see if there is a popup to connect. Maybe even cycle the watch off and back on also along with the phone if all else fails. I was ready to give up at one point and it all the sudden connected. If none of that works I'm not sure what else to try but maybe someone else will have some ideas.

Along with the Galaxy Wearable app there is also a Gear S Plugin that needs to be installed. The first time I set up my Gear S3 Frontier the plugin was automatically installed but when I had to set my watch up a second time I had to manually install the plugin.

This is good to know...Been a good while since I set mine up so wasn't aware of that. Thanks for the info!

I have the gear S3 frontier and fit2 pro. I paired them with minimal issues. Did you reset your watch before trying to pair it?
I have an S3 Frontier, and every clean install ROM switch I have to reset the watch. I think they do it for security purposes? Unless someone knows something I don't, I've never found a way to reconnect the watch to a different device without resetting the watch. The backup of the watch puts everything right back once connected, but still kind of annoying (as it adds back in "removed" programs and such).
I have to use the MagiskHide Props Module to get all the correct things installed for my watch to work. However on a stock 6T it should just work. That module should only come into play on a rooted / unlocked device.
