  • Oculus Go broken with latest SLR app release?

dog12398 themib Lionheart321 themib

This totally slipped my mind, the OGo uses the GearVR version. For now I recommend using the DeoVR app via the Oculus store v8.53

The .apk from our website nor from SideQuest will work for the OGo. It installs the Quest version.

The v9.2.x update was targeted specifically for the OGo. We have no plans to drop support for the OGo so far.

    Rakly3 I'm confused, so besides having to download and use the DeoVR app, there is no way to access SLR app with the Go?

      doublevr I have the Quest 1 but I prefer using my GO for watching movies bc the GO is much lighter and more compact which makes viewing stuff much more comfortable. Guess I'll have to use the Quest

        Using the browser in oculus go the vr quality is extremely poor. With DeoVR it doesnt work, and now the SLR App doesnt support the oculus go either.

        SLR does not support Oculus Go anymore... Just cancelled premium - so sad πŸ™.

          sadowman What doesn't work exactly?
          Did you remove the sideloaded app(s) first?

          themib Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I was able to just do a manual adb install of this .apk (Sidequest -> run adb commands -> adb install <path-to-apk>) after removing the previous (broken) SLR app and now my Go is working again with this version of the SLR app. I guess this is the last release for the Go but at least I can function now.

          Can anyone help when I use my Oculus go when watching videos the camera keeps moving down on its own it's happening all the time and very annoying, what can I do to fix this problem?
          I only use the Oculus Go when my Quest 2 runs out of battery .

            doublevr I understand that you are constrained by Facebook and their stupid deprecation policies, but you can be better than Facebook to your SLR users by providing a method to users of older hardware (Oculus Go) to at least get to the last working version of the SLR app. You can say something like "this is how to install it, but this is the final release and no further updates will be provided."

            Because of how quickly Facebook deprecated the Go, I am very, very hesitant to buy a Quest 2. Do I get maybe three years before they deprecate that and I am forced to buy a Quest 3? I won't play that game.

              Redhulk50 Sounds like the controller is sending an input to the headset.

              dog12398 The issue is that newer versions of our app also need updates to the Oculus OS to work. Without Facebook adding these updates, Our app won't work either. When you sideload v9 of SLR/DeoVR and try to run it, it even prompts you to update the Oculus Software.

              We would have to compile our own Oculus Go OS with the support added and ask our users to jailbreak their devices, which in turn will stop it from working with anything else.

              sadowman gizmo vr works on the go

              Maybe slr can hook it up so their videos stream on there as well for go users.

              If you download gizmo vr (its in the oculus store)

              In gizmo search for
              Xhamster.com click the vr tag to the right
              You can sample many trailers up to 6mins long, they have longer scenes too, now there's no 7k or 8k but its decent enough to sample vr studios to see what you like.

              Also check out xxxreal.com

              Virtualtaboo.com streams on there too , u can check out their trailersπŸ‘

              And povr.com streams on there too πŸ‘

                Im on gearvr s10 and deo works fine for me πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
                Knock on wood πŸͺ΅

                I can go to these websites and they stream in vr

                Sexlikereal
                Vrconk
                Realjamvr
                Sexbabesvr
                Czechvr

                Vrhush says it plays with deo but i just get error when trying to play a video, someone should tell them its not working
