Hey guys, using the s7 edge now, had to take back my note 7.
Is there a custom ROM that has VR gear support? I really love VR and would like to continue using it.
Thanks
There is a lot of roms, the important is that you flash the csc of your country after flashing a rom! I'm using sac23 rom, a port with n7 features, very smooth and without bugs

S7eQ&A-ROM is great - it supports Gear VR and everything you need.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help
But I would recommend trying Phoenix ROM - however it depends on your needs.

Just look through the Op of each rom. There are a lot of great roms out there. Most of them offer gear vr support.
And to promote my favorite.
I'm running the phoenix V3 rom. With Gear vr support
Currently using Decent UltraLite .
Use the Gear VR fix. Works fine.
Cheers!
Thank you Gentleman, great feedback...I want to try them all. Are there any Note 7 ports with working VR? I LOVED the Sac23 Note 7 port, got AMAZING battery life, but I could not get the VR to work.
Thanks!

Hydra rom n7 port has reported a working gear vr. Not use ld it myself though

I guess, when you really think about it...the N7 ports will have a short lifespan due to the discontinued device. It will be great to see what comes out on Nougat for the S7 edge.

Vr still not working
I've tried changing the model number and I still can get the vr to work
I too have returned my note 7.
I have the s7 edge. I have the 32gb want to exchange for the 64gb. I would like to root my s7 but not sure which rom and if it supports my gear Vr.
Any suggestions??

Most roms support the gear vr. Read the op. Or use the search function in the rom thread.
Superman rom, Phoenix rom en renovate rom support gear vr for sure

The Galaxy Note 4 for T-Mobile has yet to receive a hybrid port of the S6 Edge+ and the Note 5. I am willing to work with any developer to help bring this port similar to Sac23 Note 5 Ported V2 .1 10/2.
Are the chances of this being possible zero because of processor differences?

There is also a port for the N910F on other forum
but the lollipop international data fix does not work on 5.1.1.
Sac23 rom t-mobile port ran so smooth but the mobile data
issue was a killer. I flash that rom more than 10 times.
Still wish for a stable data fix.

I was recently farting around with the Sac 23 Rom for T-Mobile. I have the SM-N910W8 (Updated to 5.1.1) variant and have found a way to get data to work. With all the correct APN settings for telus of which i am with i will not get data unless i try to make a phone call. After which i will get full LTE 4G. Oddly enough however if i switch to wifi i will lose data when switching it off and will have to make another call to my voicemail in order for 4G to work again( Must be a bug). I dont know if youve ever tried this but it seems to work for me and i dont loose data until i toggle wifi. Also note i did not flash the data fix. I wanted to post this in the development thread however wasnt able to. Hope this can help some people like me who love the updated features and hard work that devs put into these roms!

Read on the sprint Note 5 port thread that they had a similar issue with the bluetooth pairing screen
not showing up and they fixed it changing the dpi.

May be worth a shot.

I'm going to give it a shot. You change the DPI to 640 then? I thought the DPI was 640 by default though.

On the Note 5 port thread,they say that changing the dpi from 560 to 640 solves the issue of the Bluetooth pin screen. Other user confirms the find. https://goo.gl/photos/HDiqeRChSFHDdHjz7
Sadly looks like will not work for the S6 t-mobile port.
Already flashed the ROM and the dpi on the build.prop is already 640, so really don't know what else to try.
You guys could rather just flash a ported note 5 rom from international forum.

Do you think this can work on Sac23's port for the Note 5?
By the way, did anyone try Kyubi's Note 5 port? I tried it out with the INTL Data fix for the N910T and it was an alright experience. No where near compared as smooth as Sac23's port of the Note 5. It was a little laggy for me. I haven't tried out Dr. Ketan's port of the Note 5 / S6 Edge port. Apparently there's a newer version being released and it seems like the installation process isn't as straight forward as just flashing the ROM.

Not sure man, the data fix is for the international ports from Note 4 Snapdragon variants that are GSM/WCDMA/LTE
like our own.
On sac23's port there is the sprint CDMA wild card messing up data.
Running the light debloated version of kyubi's ROM
by Battlehero.
Agree on sac23's port being smoother but just for a little.
Going to try kyubi's ROM version 2 update.

Tried it but couldn't get it to work for some reason. Which version do you have: 910c or 910f? This one should work with the package from post 4. Please report back if you have any luck getting it to work.
Noticed that you have the snapdragon version so my suggestions won't apply to you.

i have a 910w8 which is the same as the 910t. That rom wont work on my phone.
is there such a rom? i keep searching the forums but found nothing regarding the new gear vr...
None of the N5 ports supports Gear VR.
Why u want the new headset? The original innovator edition is still the best one. The new official release is lighter yes but has a white inlay so light reflects on it while wearing it and really takes the immersion away.

In all my searching I have never found anything positive about using the Gear VR with Root.
Some people have gotten lucky and have it work. Mostly using the stock modified Kernel but I can't be sure that this will work with my Model. G928F as it states that it is designed for other models.
Is anyone happily using their european Gear VR with root? If so what is your setup?
Thank you.

Hi,
I'm from the Netherlands, i also have the G928F.
With the modified kernel it works great!
So yes. i'm verry happy with the Gear VR.
Using Audax Rom with the Stock modified kernel.
t-mobile stock modified works fine.
Thank you everyone. I am sure you can understand my hesitation. with it being labelled T-Mobile. If anyone else has had good experiences with this or other kernels/ROMs please let us know. The more feedback the better.

hi. same for me here. i had same issues.
i found that for me Stock modiefied Kernel and Orgia rom works best. i have G928F. and everything works just fine, no worries about the kernel. it will work.
i also heard and read that skyhigh kernel is reported working. but it was not for me.
i know that you should stay as much stock as possible with rom an kernel from what i read.

I have been using King and Renovate for the last 2 weeks on my G930F and both are good. At the moment though I am preferring the King Rom and haven't encountered any bugs on it yet.

Have u tried the superman rom?? And is king rom fast and battery good??
I didn't try the Superman Rom but i'm sure its pretty good.
With Renovate I liked the frequency of updates coupled with being able to use SVN for updates, with King it had a feature that I was looking for direct on the Rom with a traffic meter. With regards to battery life both so far were pretty good, going on feel (no science) it feels like King is zippier with a slightly with less battery life compared to Renovate but both have been good to me on that front. This is just from my personal experience and will of course differ on other phone/setups/background apps etc.

Yes they are working well on the G930F, the edge roms that I have used tend to have an option in aroma for an edge or flat (G930F) install. I am still happily on the king 4.2 rom on my G930F.
So as some of you might've read already, the Note 5 'beta-test group' is receiving a new update, most likely the UX that will ship with the Note 7 that is bound to be released somewhere in August.
In my opinion it looks really clean and elegant while keeping that 'touchwiz' style. I'm hoping the UX will eventually (maybe with Android N) come to the S7 (edge)!
I'm curious whether this will also already work on our S7
If anyone is willing to try, please post your experiences and findings below! ^^
