Gear VR submission issues - Please help!

Hi Folks -

I’ve tried following the guides and have made a signed APK wich worked - as it was accepted by Oculus when I uploaded my VR app to be tested. Now unfortunately they returned to me with a list of issues which seemed to be centered on the game not starting properly and showing the UE logo and not doing anything else. It’s hard to tell as it’s in a screwey 3d image on the gear but I think it’s this message.

Now my settings were these - alt text

Any idea whatI am doing wrong?

Many thanks,

Paul

The gearvr platform does not work with OBB files asaik - make sure to tick:

"Package game data inside .apk"

in the android settings.

Also tick the following in the project settings:

"For distribution" (to be sure it’s signed correctly)

&

"Create compressed cooked packages" (to reduce the apk file size)

Thanks AussieBurger - I’m trying your suggestions out now.

It worked thanks @AussieBurger.

It has been reviewed and there are a couple of other issues with it now - one of them being that it dosen’t work on the Note 4 - Does note 4 need to be supported anymore- I thought I had read that it dosen’t even fit into the headset so why support it?

Back when I submitted my app they gave the choice to ‘remove’ Note 4 support - this is pretty common I believe for the more high performance apps.

That’s interesting - Was this something you discussed with them or is this a checkbox on the submission form somewhere?

It was a discussion. Things weren’t as automated back then as they are now…
