So I wanna buy an old daydream just so I can have a more comfortable cardboard viewer and I have a Samsung Galaxy S22 and I just want to know if it can fit inside the daydream viewer.
After formatting the device, I tried calibration to reinstall it. Wipe data facoty reset did not work. I could not install it normally. Please give me a solution. Note, I gave it to a very good technical service. He has been trying for 1 month and 1 week. The situation is very serious.
Recently sideloaded a few apps, but when I went on Daydream, the library option isn't there. I tried clicking on the app button but the library still won't pop up.
I'm using an ASUS Zenfone 5 ZE620KL with Android 9
Tried 2 different controllers and no input or movement is detected I also have cleared the cache of google vr services
So I need an apk for vvr on google daydream but I can't find a working one of anyone knows where I can get the apk it would be great
Hi anyone can recommend me to use my solo as a vr for gaming on pc, also a good browser for it since chrome is outdated, and any recommended apps please ? Thanks alot
Is there a way to install Plex VR if I bought a new Google Daydream?
Hi all,
first apoligies because english is not my mother lenguage.
Few days ago my controller stop working, so I was forced to do a hard reset and consequently FRP block because lack of servers.
After couple of days of research, finally, I find out the solution:
If you continue with the instructions in the PDF from first link you will be able also to unlock the boot loader.
After this, when you restart the system, remember bypass the update and account sign in, with the four corners trick.
Note: This work for me, but I cannot guaratee that work also with your system.
Good luck and lets keep this good piece of hardawe alive again ;)
Hi I am wondering if there are some archives with apk of apps/games? Maybe something like gearvr vault.
I'm using android 14 and the vanilla daydream app and daydream keyboard. I'm also using a modded version of Google VR Services that adds compatibility to android 14
When I try to pair my daydream controller android and daydream both say connection failed but according to nRF Connect it's sending and receiving data from the controller the controller also shows up as connected before I even used this app. My guess is android 14 not liking this Bluetooth device as it uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and because android doesn't recognize it daydream won't either. Can someone help me or mod the apps to still read the controller data like how nRF Connect reads it. Here is my current modded Google VR Services app https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Mv6t9MYTj38Ecy29ukahti6SWczf1neu/view?usp=drivesdk
Edit: It worked after resetting my phone and daydream is detecting it. But now it won't show up in any of the apps I use do I need a daydream headset because I have a phone vr headset but it doesn't have an NFC daydream tag on it
Edit 2: More digging and found out someone had the same issue as me 4 years ago with no solution also using an app to force run different parts of an app I found an activity called Metaworld which is where you can see things like your battery percentage and wifi and when I clicked a button on the controller it recognized it clicking the home button brought me back to the home menu but the controller stopped working. To summarize I found out the same issue that was 4 years ago and also the controller is only working on Google VR Services and any other app including the daydream home screen will not work.
I think it's Google VR Services problem but I can't check because this modded version is the only one that will work
Hey y'all, a few years ago (possibly 2019-2021) I played a game on my Google Daydream VR where you would be spawned onto a 'futuristic' arena and use a lightsabre to fight waves of robots that would attempt to either melee kill you or shoot at you with I think it was some sort of laser. You could move by holding the touchpad on the remote and you just swing it to attack. From the main menu I can only remember that you could change the colour of the lightsabre by cutting a different lightsabre that were to your right. I can remember a green, red and yellow option but I think there were more. I'm pretty sure I got this game from Google Play Store. I have searched the entire internet so any help would be appreciated.
I unfortunately had to replace a stolen phone with iPhone at bequest of my partner.
So.
Free daydream. Lmk
Is there any way to restore the play store functionality for the Google Daydream app? For context I am wanting to play a game called Shattered State (Developed by Supermassive Games) and recently I installed to Google Daydream app through the use of APKs. (Specifically APKPure) I have my heart set out to play every Supermassive game so if anyone can tell me a way to restore functionality to the Play Store or download Shattered State directly through the use of APKs or otherwise It would be greatly appreciated.
Just as it says, i got my hands on some devices i can find some information on and 1 i can't find out anything about except the now miasing ebay post from where i bought it. Also got a dozen proto pixels and a bunch of Tango dev kits.
Was wondering if anyone here knows what a microg is, and if they could patch it for a device i accidentally rooted and deleted GMS on
Sometimes when I use YouTube VR it is really slow (loads of buffering), but the regular YouTube app will be fine. This happens like 2 thirds of the time I use YouTube VR. I've found switching to mobile data fixes it but I don't want to always use my data because i have a limited amount. Has anyone had the same issue and knows a fix?
Or any way to use it as like a mouse or anything. There is a version of a VR browser for cardboard that supports daydream controllers but i can't find it here's a thing i found of it, I feel like it'd be a good way to repurpose them and have like a VR desktop on Android
This guide will be (hopefully) a complete user guide for the Lenovo Mirage solo daydream all in one vr headset.
Who this guide will serve.
This guide will NOT be useful for anyone who knows how to root there android device and sideload apps. If you have that capability you will be able to make the headset far more useful than anyone who does not. This guide is for novice users who want to experience whats left of daydream.
If you are looking for a headset ebay is a good place to start. You should spend less then 100 dollars for a used headset. A new headset if its worth it to you will be around $100. Anyone who wants $150 or more for a headset even if its new with the plastic still on the box its not worth it considering what the device can do in 2024.
Set up
First you are going to charge the headset via the usb type c connection on the side. The controller has a rechargeable battery and also charges via usb c. If you do not have a controller you are already dead in the water. The device will launch to start up screen that allows you to select your language. If you continue through this the device will try and update and since the server is offline youll be stuck. You are going to click with the remote once in the top left corner of the box, then the top right, then the bottom right, then the bottom left. I have attached a photo to show exactly where you need to point the clicker and what sequence its needed to be done in. At that point it should allow you to bypass the update screen and start the tutorial. You can skip through the tutorials and land at the main screen. At this point you need to find the settings at the top. You want to allow 2d apps if it has not already been done. This will give you access to a second app menu labeled 2D. Now you want to connect to your wifi network through settings. Now you have to get your google account signed in on this device. This is also tricky because depending on where you try and do it from will depend on what service the unit trys to access. If you go into the settings menu I could not get it to work. I found that I was able to do it through google play games in the 2d app menu. Open it and it should want you to sign in and it worked for me. Now when you go into the settings on the device it should show your google account signed in. Now you can access the 2D playstore and download apps to the device. The 3d play store will not work. Most of the google 3d apps still work like street view photos and youtube vr. The android apps work once you get access to the playstore on the 2D side. You can watch netflix but it will not be immersive as you have to do it through the android 2D app. If you are lucky enough your device is updated to android 8.1 oreo so youll have access to the most android apps that still work. If your device is on an older update there is no way that I know of to update it now without advanced skills.
I see that the buisness model comes in a "better" box but i don't know much real diffrences. Is there any different from either models?
Installing a game with/without OBB into a Lenovo Mirage Solo
We now create the directory (mkdir) and verify it:
vega:/storage/self/primary/android/obb $ mkdir com.alconinteractive.brvr
vega:/storage/self/primary/android/obb $ ls
com.alconinteractive.brvr
We now need to push the OBB file here.
Open a CMD window
Type: (include the quotation marks and not there is a space between the two quotations like
adb push "main.1295.com.alconinteractive.brvr.obb" "storage/self/primary/android/obb/com.alconinteractive.brvr/main.1295.com.alconinteractive.brvr
When finished, it will return something like:
main.1295.com.alconinteractive.brvr.obb: 1 file pushed, 0 skipped. 24.3 MB/s (2022166633 bytes in 79.260s)
Now we just need to install the APK file, the actual game engine:
Open a CMD window
Make sure you are in the windows folder containing the APK file
You may want to rename it windows to make the command line simpler, I renamed mine to "BR-Paid.apk"
Type:
adb install BR-Paid.apk
You should see a progress line and then it should complete.
So Keep talking and nobody explodes is installed (1.9.23) and it appears on the Daydream and Cardboard library, but it won't start on Daydream VR Mode. Note: I have the patched VR Services APK to run Daydream apps and it works flawlessly, except for the controller emulator app, that doesn't work at all.
Asking for an apk, that works on Android 6, because I have a Vizio remote running android that I have no use for.
I got a mirage solo recently and had to send it back due to it being signed into the previous owner's account. even after a factory reset I couldn't get it to work. yes I did the "click on the 4 corners" trick, but that didnt help as it still asked me to make an account for the setup process, but since the device was locked to the previous user, it would not let me make my own.
I was considering trying out a newish version of the headset, one that hasnt been used before. I see some options online for one that says business model. looks exactly the same as the consumer variant. will the setup process for this work? or would I need some sort of enterprise password or something to complete the setup? just wanted to make sure before I attempt to get it. thanks!
I have a mirage daydream solo that still works great but now rhe controller won't connect and I've tried holding down both buttons to reset ot etc and that had done nothing. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
