[Gear VR] Submission Validator bug and another bug

aussieburger · September 30, 2015, 3:01pm

I wanted to draw some more attention to the following bug:

[Gear VR] Oculus Submission Validator error: Target SDK version is not 19 (targetSdkVersion)

Doing a “for distribution” export for GearVR and using the Oculus Submission Validator I get the following error:

Target SDK version is not 19 (targetSdkVersion)

Which settings are required to remove the error? This is with the default:

SDK API Level: latest
NDK API Level: latest

When I tried:

SDK API level: matchNDK or android-19
NDK API level: android-19

I receive a build error:

Another bug which could I guess be worked around by displaying a black panel in front of the camera for a short period before showing anything else:

but makes you go crosseyed for a brief moment everything you start a UE4 app. This only started for me in 4.9 on my Exynos Note 4

I came across another bug where you also need to explicitly mention permissions for memory read & write.
If someone comes across this bug, consider adding this to your ‘ManifestRequirementsOverride.txt’

<uses-permission android:name=“android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE”/>
<uses-permission android:name=“android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE”/>

4.10 adds the targetSdkVersion and both WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE are added for GearVR.

Distribution build for GearVR also has an option to remove the osigs from assets and enable the entitlement checks needed for the store and for upcoming preview #4 (not just released #3) adds the android:installLocation=“internalOnly” attribute to the <manifest> node.

Preview #3 now includes Oculus Mobile SDK 0.6.2.0.

Thanks Chris for the info!
