need the new version of the apk

Hi, I had 2016 gear vr to work with my note 7, I've now got the note 8 and found sadly that it doesn't fit the 2016 model. I've got a suspicion that I have been brought the 2017 S8/S8+ model for christmas but concerned if that is the case that the note 8 still wouldn't fit. It's annoying that...

I'm gonna wait for the note 8 as I use the S-pen loads couldn't be without it else I'd would have exchanged my note 7. I'm hoping they'll let me exchange for note 8 for free of not then I'm keeping note 7 as note 5 isn't good enough lacks Micro SD card support and note 4 is okay but waited long...

Yeah is annoying to hear people say this lol. In all fairness though those of us who still have a note 7 surely must have the ones that are actually safe? Surely by now with how quickly reports were coming out then our phones should have exploded by now? Not saying they're not going to but...

Hi, So I've decided to keep note 7 is rooted so no updates :) But annoyingly S-pen has now decided to stop clicking. It still functions but every time I press the button in it stays held in it's like the return spring can no longer push it back up once it clicks in place. Only way I can get it...

I've read a few articles on why we should return the note 7, one article calling people who keep the note 7 idiots as there are just as good phones on the market. Except there isn't. The whole reason I brought a galaxy note in the first place was the S-pen a feature only available to the note...

I did the same with my note 7 though it thinks it's the S6 not the S7 it has no impact on features whatsoever S-pen still works fine and so does iris scanner and even the grace UX remains the same including the camera software. You basically edit the build.prop file which mainly lets apps know...

But note all note 7s are dangerous it's mainly all to protect Samsung if anything imagine if someone got seriously hurt or even killed then Samsung would face massive lawsuits. Just safer for them to stop note 7s from being used as they don't know the problem and can't or don't want to take that...

I agree lol is odd that it's such a small number of cases reported considering the amount that was manufactured. Surely if it was a manufacturing defect then it should be so much more common for a note 7 to catch fire? I still have my replacement note 7 and I don't intend giving it back or...

I rooted my note 7, changed the build.prop file so now it thinks it's an S6 and my gear vr works fine with the note 7 XD bit risky but I didn't spend £80 on a piece of tech that is now useless. Also as my note 7 is rooted it won't let me update over the air so if Samsung issues a software update...

Yeah I received that email a few mins ago lol at least I can get a refund if need be still the issue of all the people that have brought accessories like cases etc I doubt not all retailers or ebay sellers would offer refunds. I would also like to know what the issue is, surely the issue can't...

Just got a text from EE here in the UK saying that they'll contact me soon to discuss options in returning the note 7. I'm gonna tell them I'm keeping it and I'll risk it I'll also disable updates so my note 7 can't get disabled I've already changed the build.prop file so I can still use the...

Well I've edited the build.prop file on my note 7 and now the gear VR works fine XD Knowing my luck though It'll explode while I'm using it and I'll go blind :/

Yeah I agree I'm not so much concerned about the explosion risk but just the lack of support and updates in the future. Wish they'd just let us take the risk I for one wouldn't sue Samsung if my note 7 does explode there's little chance that you haven't heard about the issues from somewhere...
