DayDream

Perform the following steps to enable DayDream Mode

  1. remove following line in app/build.gradle
compile "org.gearvrf:backend_oculus:$gearvrfVersion"
  1. comment out following line in AndroidManifest.xml
<meta-data android:name="com.samsung.android.vr.application.mode" android:value="vr_only"/>

Some updates

  • Quickstart for Google Cardboard for Android NDK - https://developers.google.com/cardboard/develop/c/quickstart
  • The Daydream View VR headset is no longer available for purchase. However, you can continue to use the existing Google VR SDK to update and distribute your apps to the Google Play Store, and make them available to users in the Daydream app.
  • There is a lot more stuff out there for VR in android, unity remains my best bet though
