I have the S7 international (SM-G930F) and recently got the Gear VR. My wife has the S6 international (SM-G920I). I plugged hers into the Gear VR and it installed the Oculus apps perfectly. Both of our phones are rooted.
Mine does not install the apps, but instead says it has a network error and that I should try again later. After trying different wifi networks, removing the SIM card, checking that some facebook services were running, and attempting to manually rip the apps from my wife and sideload them into my phone, I finally did the unspeakable and contacted Samsung support.
The relevant paragraph from their reply:
G920I
Original CSC Code: <blank>
Firmware's CSC Code: TPA
Active CSC Code: TPA
Available CSC Codes: ALE, ARO, BVO, CHO, COO, EON, PCI, PCW, PEO, TDR, TPA, TTT, UPO, VNO
CSC Country: PANAMA/PA
CSC Version: G920IUUB3EPD2
G930F
Original CSC Code: TPA
Firmware's CSC Code: BTU
Active CSC Code: <blank>
Available CSC Codes: <blank>
CSC Country: <blank>
CSC Version: <blank>
I don't know much about CSC Codes except that they are like region codes. So my question is has anyone found a way to get the Gear VR to work on an SM-G930F, and if so, how? Would the only way be to change the CSC code, and what all would that involve (e.g. factory reset or just an ODIN flash or something)? Would changing the CSC cause any problems with anything else (Play Store, phone calls/data)?
Thanks much! :)

The relevant paragraph from their reply:
"I [Samsung Rep] have checked the available resources and see that Oculus app cannot be installed on International phones as it is not compatible. If you have purchased the phone in US Samsung, we suggest you to contact our appropriate support team who will assist you with further options."After some research it some people think it might be the CSC on my phone that's the problem. Using a phone info app, I looked up my CSC info and my wife's and sure enough, there's a difference between them:
