Making phone work in vr - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5

Hi guys was wondering if anyone knows if there is anything out there that can make your phone vr. What I mean is being able to do anything on the phone in vr. Like play any game in vr, or any app in vr, basically like if I wanted to remote play to my note 5 with my vr gear that came with it. Even play games with a Bluetooth controller but play the game through the vr head set. I hope this explains what I'm looking for.

Google TV navigation idea

Hey guys, i had a dream where Google TV came out, and it was able to be controlled with xbox wii and ps3 controllers. how cool would that be?
I would solve the issue of having to integrate a keyboard into the living room. and what person would buy a GoogleTV thingy and not have a gaming device. I bet that would be an AMAZING market strategy idea.

Multiple controllers registering as single controller

Hello, everyone! I purchased a 16GB, Wi-Fi Shield Tablet right before the LTE version game out. My main purpose is GameStream to my TV via USB OTG (Y-Cable, Ethernet + power).
I also bought two Shield Controllers so myself and my girlfriend could both play games at the same time. Some games I have show up in the native GameStream menu, some I open via Steam, but regardless, they support multiplayer.
Examples: Mortal Kombat, Injustice, Spulenky, etc.
However, whenever I try to play a game that supports multiplayer and register one controller to Player 1, when I try to register the second controller, it also controls Player 1 and won't show up as a completely independent, second controller.
What can I do to alleviate this? As silly as it sounds, I bought this whole setup to teach the girlfriend the way of gaming (at her request, too!), so not being able to play anything multiplayer on GameStream is a bit of a letdown.
Has anyone else experienced this, and if so, how did you fix it?
Thanks so much!
I experienced this a long time ago and I asked this on Google+ and no-one knew what to do. They said I should call nvidia, but I never did...
Sheds a little bit of light on the matter. I do hope they figure it out, though.

Sorry to bump an old thread, but has this been adressed? I just bought a 2nd controller last night, and nothing works 2 players. Even JuJu, a Shield title doesn't register that a 2nd controller is there.
EDIT: i actually just figured it out!! it was the USB dongle for my google tv keyboard. removed it, and both controllers work now in game. found this in another thread

Was having all the same problems until i found this absolute GEM of a program. It fixed everything for me. Just make sure you have your controllers ON, and then start up the moonlight app. Literally every single game works now as intended. For the record, I'm using 4 XBOX360 wireless controllers with the official Microsoft wireless dongle attached to my Shield
Moonlight (install on your Shield): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.limelight&hl=en&rdid=com.limelight

[Q] Would it be possible to simulate gyroscope with controller?

Hello there,
I build myself a vr headset (google's cardboard) for my phone so I could play around with some vr apps. Sadly enough most of these apps require a gyroscope. What a tragedy...
I started thinking, can't I just use a remote controller as a gyroscope, for example a wii or a ps3 controller? But I couldn't find any app supporting gyroscope control.
My real question is, if this would be possible, at what level would we need to build this app? Could it be done with the simple android library? Or do we need to dive into more advanced rooted solutions? Or maybe even edit our rom to make this work.
Anyway, this does sound like a fun project which I would like to spend some time in, if any of you have some tips or ideas on how to approach this, honnestly I have no idea how I would make this as I have never actually developed anything that required root components.
Thank you!

How can i use any VR headset for cardboard supported apps and games?

Hi all,
I've recently bought a not so famous vr headset to use with my phone, but lots of games only use cardboard magnet to trigger something. And some other games give me this "Pocket experience. Please place on your headset" and i don't know what it requires (maybe presense of the cardboard magnet).
How can i bypass these problems to enjoy what i payed for?
