If you can't install Samsung Gear VR updates on your Samsung Android phone, you might need to enable the Facebook App Manager and Facebook App Installer. Enabling the Facebook App Manager and Facebook App Installer will let you download and install the latest Gear VR updates.

To enable the Facebook App Manager and Facebook App Installer:

  1. From your phone's home screen, go to Settings.
  2. Tap Apps, then tap Application Manager.
  3. Scroll down and find the following apps:
    • Facebook App Installer
    • Facebook App Manager
  4. Tap each app, then tap Enable.

on my galaxy the facebook app isnstaller and manager are enable, but i can't use the oculus because it needs update.  help me plz some body

Have you tried uninstalling the Oculus / Gear VR services?

Solved, I contacted the support center, they advised uninstalling all Oculus apps and services (like cybereality mentioned). Actually I tried that earlier, but it didnt work (maybe not all services were uninstalled). Cheers!
