[Gear VR][SOLVED] 4.12.4 pitch black screen

I had no issues with 4.11.2

Deployment was smooth, everything worked fine (except whatever bugs I reported).

Yesterday I installed 4.12.3 (and updated to 4.12.4 today) and built .apk
Build was successful. After plugging my phone into Gear VR all I saw was pitch black screen. I did not change anything in the project settings, didn't alter my scene either. Simply converted project from 4.11 to 4.12.


Has anyone had same issue ? How did you resolve ?

P.S. I don't use HDR, same scene worked from 4.9 to 4.11.2, OSIG is where it should be, everything the same as in 4.11 (unless 4.12.4 removes some settings)

    Having a similar problem. OSIG is fine, but only black screen. Re-creating the project in 4.11.2 did not fix the issue for me. Maybe it's not UE that changed things, but the recent GearVr update? I know the applications are running. They have sound and four finger touch correctly brings up the console. Back button triggers return to home or overlay.

    I got image on 4.12.4. I had forgotten to set default map to my main level in maps and modes *derp*

    My issue was with improperly converted project (from 4.11 to 4.12). Now that I converted it properly, it works fine.
