I just installed the latest SLR app release on my Oculus Go using the sidequest installer app. Up to now I have not had any issues. However today when I launch the SLR app on my Go, I get a message that the most recent Oculus software is required....but there are no new firmware releases for the Go....so the SLR app will not run and is effectively broken now. Can I downgrade? I do not see any option for that in the sidequest installer app.
Oculus Go broken with latest SLR app release?
OK I did all that and now it senses the device and says "Deprecated" --- so I cannot install a working version of the SLR app anymore? Is Oculus Go not supported by SLR anymore? IS there any way to downgrade to a working version of the SLR app?

I understand that at a certain point Facebook forces you to stop being able to develop for deprecated platforms. However as a goodwill gesture to your Oculus Go based monthly premium SLR subscribers (like me), you should provide a way to get to the last supported .apk version of the SLR app for the Go...even if it is with BAT files like the old days. This would be treating your customers better than Facebook does --- who just cuts them off when they have older hardware. I understand no further updates on the Go would be available for the SLR app....but I think there are still a significant amount of Go users who would benefit from this. Thanks.
OK I tried that too but it still says "Deprecated" when I use the SLR Quest installer and won't let me install anything now. I found a blog link that says the Go is no longer supported after May of 2021.....but is there a way to manually install the last working .apk file that still supports the Go? It was working fine like 2 days ago....I just want to roll back to that version. Thanks.
Maybe a link to the older .apk files for SLR app and I can manually do an adb install from the command line?
dog12398 I have a copy of the last version to work on Go.

Rakly3 Hi, same thing happened to me. I used your SLR installer and not sideloading and the app was working perfectly until 3 days ago when I updated the platform. Now, it doesn't let me in citing that I need to update to the new Oculus software. I checked and can confirm that I am on their latest update. Please fix this as I am an SLR Premium subscriber and there isn't a reason for me to continue subscribing when I can't use my GO. Thanks.
themib Hi, I downloaded this, how do I install this to my GO to revert it back to the previous version? Thanks.

We pushed an update v9.2.1 for OGo and SideQuest. Should be fixed. If you guys could confirm, would be great! Thanks!
Rakly3 I connected my GO with the SLR Quest installer and it still said "latest update installed". I clicked to update it anyway and tried it but the same thing still happened. Please advise.
themib Appreciate it!
Lionheart321 Wait before doing anything. I'll confirm it myself.
Wanted to do it yesterday but I hadn't used my Go in such a long time it took quite a while for it to charge.

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?
Unfortunately GearVR and Oculus Go could be no longer supported because Facebook deprecated these back in 2019 SDK. We were required to update the app to make it work on Quest 2.
You will enjoy VR even better with one of these headsets https://www.sexlikereal.com/blog/post/id/216
Lionheart321 I think FB will completely deprecate GO at some point later this year
Lionheart321 You can install the DeoVR app straight from the Oculus app store from within the headset. When the app is launched you have to manually go to https://sexlikereal.com
