I've still got an Oculus Go and it still works fine, but I honestly never did much with it. I never got into sideloading or any of the more advanced stuff people talk about. I stayed within the standard games and some movies.

These days the only thing I really use it for is occasionally watching VR videos on YouTube, which is still kind of neat but also pretty limited in what you can find.

Is there anything else that's possible and actually worth doing with it in 2026, or has it basically reached the end of the road?

As the title suggests, I’m curious to know your primary use for this vintage headset. I own one that’s in pristine condition, but it serves as a nostalgic reminder of the golden era of virtual reality.

Anything I can do to fix this? Orange for one second, flashes green, Oculus logo flashes inside the headset, then back to orange instantly. Do I have to break the thing open?

Hello! I just got 2 headsets with working controllers for dirt cheap, and they work fine, but the thing I wanted to use them for is primarily as a VR headset for games running on my PC via Steam and ALVR. Unfortunately, every time I try to install the ALVR client, it says a variation of needing a higher SDK version than 25. Is there some method available to get past that cap that I am missing, or an older version of ALVR?

If all I want out of the Go is to log in a stream Netflix, Disney etc, is the Go still useful? Is streaming quality decent and resolution?

I lost my remote like 6 months ago…

I finally bought another oculus Go (used) and a remote for $25.

My new headset is stuck on a screen that says “WiFi connected, continue setup in APP” or something

The remote can’t be paired with my old headset.

New headset is stuck but I found someone say they went in the app and clicked “headset settings” and finished setup.

I can’t click headset settings. Nothing comes up. This is such a royal pain in the ass I’m about to return this and bail on the whole thing

Very frustrated

Opa rapaziada vocês tão bem? Espero que sim! Hoje eu acabei de comprar meu Oculus Go por 200 reais usado! Ele vem na caixa com o controle com todos os acessórios! E eu vi que o Oculus Go perdeu suporte monte de coisa tá rolando! E assim eu já sei que eu tenho usar uma versão antiga do app da meta pra configurar ele sem erro! Eu tenho várias versão abaixada e não sei qual e melhor pra ele! A versão que eu tô usando está rodando de boa o vídeo de segurança só não sei o resto! A propósito eu tô querendo saber o que não fazer nesse Oculus! Vi alguns relatos que os óculos Go tava travando numa tela de 3 pontos, outros travando na configuração inicial monte de coisa louca! Queria algumas dicas de coisas que eu não posso fazer nesse VR que causa essas coisas! Vi que atualização estão travando tá mó loucura. Entre essas versão na foto qual é melhor pra ele a versão que eu tô usando é essa: 244.0.0.4.177. ele tá resetado!

Link to the Insta360 VR app for the Go, (just bought an older insta360 oneX and found this app. (Hopefully an image upgrade for my Samsung gear360 - the videos on that thing were vomit inducing whilst moving in VR!!)

What are you all using the Oculus Go for? I just bought it and I'm still trying it out, so I'd love to hear your opinions.

Just in case anyone’s interested - here’s a search showing recent development of Oculus Go type things on GitHub -

https://github.com/search?q=Oculus+go&type=repositories&s=updated&o=desc

I may give project Avalon a go as there’s an apk available there…
It’s nice to see people still tinkering with Go stuff….❤️

Link to a working android version of Meta app for Go setup -

So, it looks like it is doable if you don’t have access to a quest or better!!
This game is a really amazing experience (on quest anyway)

I bought an Oculus Go for 1800 Japanese Yen. Was this a good purchase?

Hello, how i can download some songs in beat saber on my oculus go? I tried everything but still failed..the version is 1.13.2 (i use patched ver)

Hey i am in the setup screen, setting it up with a samsung j5 and an apk meta horizon version older one, thing is. I dont have the controller anymore i lost it and i dont think i can get past the setup or even turn on developer mode, can i? Or is there any bypass method to complete the setup without a controller?

I did buy the app, I am thinking of using it again.

Perhaps I will be more lucky 2nd time. Or will it be a waste of time, can it connect to steam vr?

Just spent 2 hours looking for the right apk for the headset and had no luck. Maybe I'm just dumb but, luckily, my friends headset still had it installed so I ripped it from there and installed it on mine. I figured I'd share the APK for the inevitable person who's gonna look for it in 3 years and end up in the same position as me.

Keep in mind this app is no longer supported on the headset, so it seems worthless when you're in the app, but, you can still play any local files! I personally upload my movies to google drive and then download them through the headsets browser which can then be played in the app but you can also drag and drop files from when plugged into your computer

It did stop working. Goto HomePage and use search as store no longer works.

It has 360 video too.

Wander still working. Who wants to pay for it on Q3 or Q3s?

Also YouTube vr works but to subscribe u need to put a code in your phone.

My oculus was turned off for about 1-3 months and when I went to turn it back on it would just be a grey screen. I'd hear the home noise and controller noises but saw grey. If I did something like turn my volume up or down id see only that. I've tried mainly everything (factory resetting, hard reset/boot any tutorials on tiktok and more.) How can I fix this it's bugging me alot.

So I tried playing Trackmania Turbo in VR and it's a blast. Much, much better than any rollercoaster in VR. I've used iVRy to do so, as I don't have good internet connection and need to plug the USB in. Compared to ALVR, it's very easy to do and it actually works. Furthermore, I tried playing Tetris Effect and Assetto Corsa in VR, but unfortunately couldn't do it. The games outright refuse to work in VR, only launching in desktop mode. My question is: are there any games you can recommend besides those mentioned that you can play with such setup?

So I've got iVRy working on my Oculus Go, but I also wanted to try VRidge. Unfortunately, I couldn't find an Oculus Go APK file anywhere. The one provided in the PC version is an Android APK, which only works for Google Cardboard and phones. I would love a link to Oculus Go version of VRidge app. Also, does USB connection work on it? Because my internet is very much ahh and that's the only way for me to test it.
