If the deamon starts but nothing else happens and no GO shows up please confirm the drivers are installed and that you allowed the connection to your computer on the headset.ĪDB install AppStarter-v4.0.apk - this will give us a nice launcher in 'unknows sources' in the library. I will from now on just list the commands and assume you know that you need to press Enter to make them workĪ short message about the deamon starting should come up and then your GO should be listed as a connected device. In the context menu select 'Open command prompt here'.Ī DOS window will pop up and we use this for a while now Hold the Shift key and do a right click on the folder containing the ADB files.

However, I will list the manual steps here! On the GO you will be asked to allow the connection to your computer, tick the box and allow it.įor those prefering a GUI there is Simple-ADB.jar - a Java executable that provides a graphical interface for ADB. The corresponding drivers should be installed automatically, if not please please use the ones provided in the folder that you just created for the archive. Just to be sure, reboot your GO and then connect it with the USB cable to the computer.

Unpack the RAR archive from the previous step to your computer - please create a folder in a location that suits you and where you can find the stuff with the Windows Explorer. I just assume you created the developer account and already activated USB debugging for the GO, if not then please do so now.

Please follow this one by one if if you have not set up ADB properly already. Setting the computer and the GO up properly.

Please download the RAR archive from Filefactory or Google Drive - it contains the Oculus GO ADB drivers, ADB and the apps I talks about a bit further down.Īnd no, there won't be any virus, spyware or whatever included - I am not like that!īecause I know there will always be someone asking something that can be found in all the ADB guides out there I will make the following steps as complete as I can:ĥ. If it is not VR then you need a new launcher to make the things visible. Wouldn't it be great to find the things you installed so you can actually try if it works? Unless designed and signed for the GO it won't show up.Īnd even if you created a GO app yourself and want to try it then it will only show in 'unknown sources' in your library.

So how to start the app or game you just installed? If you were really impatient then you already tried sideloading with ADB and although using Wifi is easy for this - it could be easier.Īnd of course you noticed that actually nothing is showing up anywhere. This of course goes for the required ADB drivers as well, which you can download from the developer sites. The port 5555 should be addressed automatically by ADB in this case.įrom then on all you do with ADB will go over the WiFi and not over the USB cable anymore.Īnd as said: Plenty of info on the Oculus websites and XDA to get you covered for all ADB needs. Just type ADB connect - where the xxx stands for the IP address of the GO. Once you have your GO connected to the computer and ready for a ADB connection you can also switch it all to TCP mode, meaning you can do it all wireless! In the XDA developers forum you will also find quite detailed guides on how to use ADB and what to do with it. If you need more detailed info just read a bit in the developer section on the Oculus servers - they have plenty of useful info there to get you started! You will be prompted to allow unknown sources for your installation, please do as otherwise it won't work.

If you ever properly used it on your mobile or tablet before then you will be familiar with the required procedures.Ĭonnect the GO with the USB cable to the computer.Įnable the developer options and allow USB debugging in the settings.Ĭonfirm that you authorise your computer on the GO - tick the box too to make it permanent.ĪDB devices should then show you what is connected and your GO should be listed.ĪDB install Filename.apk will install any compatible game or app. If you already looked into sideloading apps then you know that you will need a developer account to enable the developer options for the GO on the paired mobile phone.Īfter this we are left with more than just ADB: With a lot of Android apps and games working at least in 2D mode on the cinema screen it would be nice to have some easy ways of installing them. There are some things our GO can not (yet) do as good as we would like.
