Just a heads up, once you've installed sidequest tv on the headset you no longer need to sideload your apks. To install apks go into the quest browser and open the store or site that has the apk on it (apkmirror etc) then download the apk as you would (but now you're downloading to the quest not sidequest) now go to unknown sources, open sidequest tv then go into settings and make sure you tick the box to show system files, once that's ticked go back to apps and scroll down until you find the files app, click that and you should see the apk you just downloaded. Click on that apk and it will proceed to install. Once installed it can be found in sidequest tv like the other apps that you may have sideloaded. Thanks for this video though, it got me all set up with 3rd party apks.

I'm assuming it's virtually the same as the Go except what' seems to be a little more polished.i on the Samsung Gear VR side.I have a Note 9 and running on the Gear VR is super smooth and I would love to get into the whole Dev sideloading. I have 2 of the Gear VR controllers and I'm curious will they both work. If so will having a L and a R Gear controller allow for a closer to PC based VR experience.That is of course without 6 axis but rather 3 axis of movement? Any sugestions for games that would greatly benefit using the sideload dev option along with 2 Gear VR controllers ;) Assuming this works even tho I saw a video where a Go user bluetooth enabled 2 Go controllers, im assuming this person was within the DeV mode in the Oculus App. CHEERS Any guidance or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Sideloading on a GearVR is different, you don't need this process. Just enable app installs from unknown sources and install any apks you like. But it sounds like you're referring to playing PCVR games? If you have a VR ready PC then sure, give it a go, download ALVR and try it.

@@pillamiesta He I am busy man :). Ok, if you don't have a Viveport subscription you can sub for a one month free trial at Viveport.com. Than you install Alvr with this Sidequest as shown in the video. If you start Alvr on your Quest it automatically starts Steam VR home. Over there you'll find a tab Viveport, you click on it wait a few seconds and can take your pick from 700 games. Enjoy!

First off, excellent tutorial, saved me a metric shit ton of time, BUT I have one issue, I'm trying to get my file explorer to display in full screen, like it pops up, but only the left upper side of the screen. I can scroll down but not far enough down and over to reach the accept button for terms and conditions, is there a way to change the aspect ratio of 2d apps? I'm using a GO btw

If you use the SideQuest app on your Quest you can access the Android settings of the headset. But the headset doesn't have a GPS so not sure if that woukd help. Have you tried the Hulu app from the Oculus Go?

I have restartet mine mulitple times, and enabled/disabled developer mode on the app. When I plug the usb from my Oculus Quest to my computer, it's not doing anything... SideQuest won't connect to it at all. The only thing that works, is when I disable Developer Mode on the app, then I'm able to open the files my Quest has... Nothing else works, and I have searched everywhere on the internet, and nothing works for me... I really don't know what to do know, I'm so frustrated... I just want to play custom songs :'((

My thought process without upgrading to a Quest there may be a way I can sideload apks to my go for an ‘unofficial’ upgrade. More sports games would be handy I.e. tennis or football. Can’t believe there isn’t a proper tennis game for the Go yet as it seems like the perfect platform for it. A wii sports package would have seemed like a good launch title but I can imagine they would like keep that sort of thing for the quest.

Do you know how I might uninstall properly (from PC and GO) to start fresh? I can uninstall the ADB driver and delete the files for SideQuest but I dont know how to remove sidequest from the Go.
