S7 and Downloading the Gear VR software

[Dschlitz]

Anybody else having problems downloading the Gear software after you insert the phone in the headset and take it out to download the content? I only tried last night, but I could not connect to the server.

I will try again tonight, but wanted to see if anybody else had this issue.

Still getting the same message. Installation failed. Try again later

Mine worked the first day, I downloaded some of the software and then a couple days later I tried again and now it won't work. It makes the sound when you pop it in goes to a black screen then goes back a few seconds later. Rebooted, tried multiple times etc same thing. So I went to the occulus website found instructions to uninstall software. It then said just pop it back in and it should ask to reinstall.... but mine didn't so I guess I will have to wait a bit and see if enough people have the problem that a fix is issued or someone just posts the APK files to download and try again.
