I have a Samsung S9 Android phone and a Gear VR headset model SM-R325, which used to work with this same phone.
For some reason, the app was uninstalled and now I can't reinstall it. In fact, I can't even find where to install the control app for the headset.
When I connect the phone to the VR headset, it shows me the app message "Samsung Gear VR, powered by Oculus", gives me a welcome message and says that "the installation process requires a network connection" and asks me to START.
When I click start, it gives me a second screen, with the message: "Download VR apps, tap to install..."
When I click install, it tries to connect to the server but says "a network error occurred, please try again later."
The device is connected to the internet and is working properly.
I couldn't find any app in the Play Store to work with this headset.
What can be done so I can download a compatible app and finally use this headset again?
I appreciate any help!"

@william.josedesousa although meta have shut down the servers for GearVR updates, it's still possible to get it working following the guide in the video.
