I have searched the forums pretty extensively for a solution.
We have a launch GearVR Note with Oculus home and all of the launch apps installed. BTW, Great job everyone!
I'm trying to run a native app, however, whenever I plug the device into the headset, Oculus home opens. My manifest has vr_dual set so that I can launch via the 2d screen and the app is built with the proper signature file.
Removing Oculus home is not an option, as we use the device for demo purposes.
Thanks in advance for the obvious answer I should have known about already..
Home always opens, with or without the app already running. I've tried several combinations of manifest settings, including removing the vr_dual line and a wishful thinking of setting it to be vr_only along with the INFO launch to see if home automagically picked up the new app.
You want to set vr_only, but even if you have the LAUNCHER intent set, running the app with that manifest metadata in place will launch the app once you connect the headset. The behavior changed slightly in the most recent firmware release (NK3, I think), so make sure you have that.
I've finally been able to get back around to this.
There must've been a build issue when I first ran into this, because we have again changed to vr_only and the issue is resolved..I'll respond again if we find anything different..
