4.7.6 works (GearVR from UE 4.7.6 on Mac works with (project dir)/Build/Android/assets/oculussig_xxx - XR Development - Unreal Engine Forums)

4.8.0 Preview 2 crashes following the same procedure. I’ve coped a portion of the crash dump from the output log. At the bottom It looks like it’s trying to run an .exe file but this is running on Mac OS X 10.10.3.

YAY! The latest version 4.8.0 Preview 3 downloaded onto my MacBook Pro now builds successfully for GearVR, Note 4 Innovator Edition. The first time putting on the HMD produces blurry colors but if I take the headset off and put it on again the game renders and runs successfully.

Not really a problem but this issue still holds true: GearVR from UE 4.7.6 on Mac works with (project dir)/Build/Android/assets/oculussig_xxx - XR Development - Unreal Engine Forums
