    i didnt get any bluetooth controllers or anything but did get a cloth and those little foam pieces.

    theres an amazing app called VRSE in which you can watch 360 videos and its very good but very power consuming. Some google cardboard apps work on it some dont as you need a button which is only on the google cardboard unit to watch. im using a HTC one m9 and its way better on them size screens than say an Iphone 4s screen

    I wonder where this VR technology will go. ??
    Get a strong (not too strong) magnet and it will probably work.

    Started playing around with my plastic Cardboard set last night and had an amazing experience with Cmoar cinema app, its actually usable! I watched about half an hour of True Grit on it because that was the only thing it would detect in my phone memory, for some reason it doesn't see all my tv shows:

    I couldn't believe it tbh, it was better than what I imagined similar apps for Oculus must be like, the ones on Oculus must be near perfect.

    Yeah it's definitely superior to the other free ones like Cinveo, I don't think it got hot at all tbh, I was trying loads of other apps and they were heating the back of the phone but I think it was okay, I'll give it another go tonight.

    Getting the Ritech from AliExpress in a few weeks.

    Which QR code do you use to link it to Google Cardboard Thargor?

    I tried a couple of random QR codes from the Oneplus forums and I found a perfect one for me, just got to look around, there are websites that let you generate your own ones though:
